The best restaurants in North East

I’ve been to visit Bonkers with friends a lot of times now since it opened, it’s such a great location (right on the sea front) with a really cool but relaxed atmosphere, plus very tasty and potent cocktails Also all the staff are super friendly and welcoming!

Best Bakery/Cafe around it’s tucked away but I’m so glad we found it . It sells pies, sausage rolls, quiches, sarnie’s hot and cold, cakes , cheese scones, quiche’s, Birthday cakes does a lovely breakfast , and their afternoon tea’s are to die for you certainly won’t be disappointed I highly recommend them best bakery/cafe in Tyne and Wear ..

Visit here every few weeks. Daughter loves the ones ice cream rolls. I love the coffee and great selection of cakes

It has very friendly service. It’s a lovely little coffee shop that serves very tasty coffee. Everyone is very welcoming :)

Great chinese takeaway. Food is of good quality, fresh and tasty. Decent prices too. Would recommend to anyone. Best I've tasted for a long time 😀

A lovely shop with delicious ice cream and sorbet, as well as the most wonderful staff! Having been turned away from another ice cream shop due to my 5yo niece’s milk allergy, the staff at Ross Gelato couldn’t have been more accommodating and kind. She quite literally jumped around when they brought her an ice cream with toppings just like the others. Thank you so much for making a little girls day!

Had a takeaway for 8 people delivered. Excellent service and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend this Chinese takeaway

I got a recommendation from a friend to try this small cafe / tea room and I was not disappointed. Its a cosy little place set on the Wansbeck riverside just outside Ashington and it serves a good selection of reasonably priced snack food and delicious cakes. Access is via a ramp at one end and stairs at the other, there is both indoor and outdoor seating, toilets (including disabled) are clean and dogs are welcome. Just outside the cafe is ample parking with a picnic tables, a nice childrens playpark and for the more energetic a lovely riveride walk. Food was very good quality, very tasty and good portions (especially the cake!!) A great base for an afternoon out with the kids, give it a try.

Just like when i was a young lad, fish and chip van stopping here and there serving great food, was told by a lady in the butchers in Rothbury to look on the website and then you know where he will be, did not let us down, lovely fresh fish.

Amazing salad boxes and flat breads including feta and red pepper with a balsamic glaze and salad. Beautiful homemade cakes and fab breakfasts to take away

Amazing Sunday lunch at a great price. They also do excellent breakfasts.well worth the visit. Parking is available outside

Always worth the wait......amazing food and loads of meat ... kebab amazing.... could do a bit more sauce on the curry but even with out it amazing

Amazing food very tasty, and excellent service, was given a try of the chicken first to make sure I liked it which showed excellent customer service also.

What a great venue, really well set out, spaces to eat and drink inside and out. Very friendly and helpful staff, worth a visit even if there isn't a band on, fully recommended. Peat and Diesel were brilliant.
