The best restaurants in Washington South Sunderland North East

Disappointed to find they no longer do food here, so only stayed for a quick shift drink. Fine as a pub but not what we were looking for.

Did have food, canny drinks and live entertainment, so spot on!

Just had Sunday lunch. Very nice. Should have taken a photo.

As per usual , this was upbto their standards, only difference was the full breakfast was cooked to order , which was nicer than the usual self service, as it was hot and fresh.

Absolutely brilliant buffet and lovely staff highly recommended a visit

House wine Jack Rabbit - really!!! And £23 Can't you buy Italian wine as the house wine. Then they even brought the wrong one and lipstick on both glasses Food was nice

The staff were very helpful and the decor was good. A carvery is what it is, but the main aspect is the meat supplied. We got small portions , and the lamb, which was apparently the last of it, was so tough as to be almost inedible. It might have been the case that they were running out, but that should hve been addressed - perhaps with the price or even an apology - it wasn't. There was also the pork crispy skin (scratchings ?) available. You would have needed a hammer and chisel to make a dent in it. Even my sons, in their thirties with healthy young teeth, had to abandon it. Very disappointing.

Arrived an hour late , rang twice to be told he’s just left 🤷‍♂️

Went for Christmas Dinner here. Waited 45 minutes for our starter, which was nice. We then waited over 2 hours for our main course before we decided enough was enough and left. We didn't get out deposit back, luckily unlike some We hadn't paid on booking. Will I go again???? NEVER!!!

What experience went back to old roots , most amazing shop food was excellent, ordered pizza for a family event,brilliant priceless, all family went home pleased we will be back BIG THANKS TO ALL STAFF AT RICKYS , MADE THE NIGHT BIG THANKS

Very enjoyable visit at holiday inn Washington. Staff are welcoming and friendly, kitchen staff do a really good job catering for the late evening orders especially on a bank holiday with no drop in presentation or taste. The host at the breakfast bar was very friendly and helpful. Would stay again only downside is rooms could do with a revamp but for the price i can't really complain. The hotel is situated next to a main road which is a bonus when travelling and you can't really hear the cars so didn't disturb my sleep.

Excellent service. Great food. Clean rooms. Lovely Manager

To expensive for in the middle of know where

Order was exact and the food was excellent. Staff very friendly and bent over backwards to help with my vegan food order. 2 starters, main meals and various accompaniments all really good and piping hot.

After a blip in 2023, standards returned to their best. We use this place regularly and have tried most of their different offerings; all of which have been delicious. Our current favourite is Chicken and Donner Wraps with salad and chilli sauce. They are consistently good and the quality of service and delivery is always excellent.
