The best restaurants serving American food in Northumberland North East

We came to this little cafe in the heart of Britain as we had heard the food was delightful and the village was lovely. 100% accurate on both counts. Chef Carlos has a great imagination and it shows in the special sandwiches and desserts served. The sandwich I had was a chicken, ham, and avocado with garlic mayo on toasted white bread. My wife had the butternut squash falafel wrap with whipped feta and pickled beets. Chef's lovely wife Nicole extends charm and grace taking orders and dishing friendly conversation. We finished our meal with a slice of lemon icebox pie with a crust of ground digestives. It was light and delicate with a delicious taste. We walked around the village loving the smiles and friendly greetings of the village folk. Walking along the banks of the Tyne is beautiful and we visited the sites of Vindolanda and the Roman Army Fort along Hadrian's Wall. The museums are well curated and the sense of historical awe was powerful. This visit was a highlight of our trip to England from California.

La comida era absolutamente increíble, el personal es muy amable, un gran lugar para comer. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar. Ese filete aunque ??????

I had the fritters, lemon sole and berry parfait with mocktails. All were super delicious. The other diners with me enjoyed their food as well.

Went here for a meal after returning from a week's holiday which we always do if possible unfortunately they are now closing earlier and often they are closed when we return, so disappointing as we really enjoy our meals there. As usual had a lovely meal 😋 staff as usual were great friendly helpful and cheerful, was very sad to hear that they are closing down soon, such a shame as it's a really lovely place excellent food, good quality, and very good price. Hope to call again before we lose you 😟 .

Went to the shop today and ordered double cheeseburger and fries. Cost 8.50, it was very nice and both freshly cooked while I waited. Staff were nice and polite.

A lovely little pub restaurant with a warm and inviting atmosphere. I went as part of my Key Grant group, where we finished the day off with lovely food and drinks. The hygiene of the Dirty Bottles was very good, with the tables and floors being pristine. Spacing in the restaurant was good, although the tables and chairs could perhaps be separated a little bit more for ease of access/exit. Lighting was perfect and the cosy architecture made the restaurant feel really relaxing and comfortable. The scampi was a delight and my friends loved their meals as well! Service was excellent and friendly, and staff were very accommodating. Drinks were really nice - my friends stuck to water and Pepsi, but I went for the Oreo shake which was really well made! All in all, a wonderful place to dine out and a great way to wrap up our brilliant day!

Nice place, lots of parking. Food tasty and reasonably priced. Could do with better beer selection.

I love this pub, it’s been going for a while and I like the layout. My only wish though is for the toilets to be downstairs as they’re so steep and after a few drinks you do feel like you’re about to take a tumble. Another wish would be for them to serve a few more chips with the burgers or the battered fish. The portion sizes are small. However tasty food and refreshing drinks. Clean environment and friendly staff.

Food is absolutely amazing defo go back xx

Ordered 3 fries, 1 Cajun an 2 plain. All 3 came Cajun spiced so my young kids wouldn't eat them. Also sauces on the two wingbox burgers was wrong.

Visited regularly during our stay at the park and had breakfast, lunch and supper here all of which were good. All the staff were friendly and it is also dog friendly. The arcade/games area in the basement was good the the new management were adding more to it when we were there.

Went for a pizza after work it clearly stated bye one get one free but this wasn’t the case so felt misled the young lady that served us had us so confused

You know those painting of galloping horses that are anatomically wrong, because the artist has never studied the mechanics of a horse before? This place is like that. An American diner created people who have never been to an American diner, for people, who have also never been to an American diner. Disclaimer: I visit America every couple of years. American diners & BBQ pits are my absolute favourite things - an absolute treat that I look forward to and enjoy very much. Okay, back to Millies "American" Diner in Bedlington. Decor is okay, someone's been googling diner aesthetics and made a commendable attempt. A bit overkill on the licence plates. Background music was disappointing - e.g. Celine Dion (Canadian), The Police (British), Camille Jones (Danish), Elton John (British)... limited American input, which is wild considering all the great American artists that could be showcased. And the kitchen staff listen to UK radio loudly, so that overlays what's playing in the main dining area, which is quite annoying. Cutlery was filthy, luckily didn't need to use it. Yuk. Normally what I've mentioned would be more than enough to write off a place, and for me not to return, but here... here the menu is what really let's this place down. There are no real American diner offerings. Probably should have realised looking at social media - it's mostly pictures of cars in the car park, rather than the food. Weird. Curry & chips, corned beef pie, full English breakfasts, mince & dumplings, gammon egg & chips, fish & chips, jacket potatoes, cheese scones, quiche, ham & pease (which they've spelled "pea's"...) pudding sandwiches... All things that would never, ever, ever, ever, grace the menu at an American diner. It's just a regular, average, boringly British café. Even the milkshakes don't cover a core America milkshake flavour - peanut butter! I'm disappointed, had hoped to get the proper diner experience. Where's the Elvis sandwich? Reubens? Biscuits & gravy? Huevos Rancheros? Breakfast burrito? Chicken & waffles? Pecan pie? Still lemonade? Soda floats? In an attempt to find something passably American, I opted for Nachos. However, they were disappointing - a dish of basic lightly salted tortilla chips with an economy range squeezy bottle BBQ sauce squirted over, a small amount of pulled pork, and packet shredded cheddar dumped on it, and microwaved. Absolutely not what you'd get in an American diner - no pico de Gallo, salsa, guacamole, sour cream... Again, it screams created by someone that's never had nachos in America. The southern sweet tea was a redeeming feature, but needed to be made specially, as no-one wanted it when it was brewed en mass - this should be a staple offering in an American diner. And it was good, so it's a shame that's not more heavily promoted. I saw some pancakes being delivered to another table... They looked a bit sad, so no redemption there. This is just a cafe; nothing particularly "American" about it. However, the clientele don't seem to realise it's not American, so I guess if the locals don't know/care, it's fine? I assume you have to cater for what the regulars want to eat, so if the locals want an American diner to sell them pie (not the American pizza variety!) & chips... Well I guess you have to? In my mind, would be better to have a proper USP - give the full US cultural cuisine experience, rather than being a basic British cafe offering basic cafe food, served up beside a nylon American flag and 400 licence plates. In summary, it's a basic, British, transport-style cafe, with a mildly themed American interior. If you're a fan of actual American diners, it's a really disappointing mis-sell. Such a shame, because an actual, authentic American diner that sold an attempt at American diner food would have a USP that no-one offers locally, and could be massively popular. As it is, this place might poddle along being mediocre and only fleetingly visually American. I won't be back, it was a bit too crushingly unAmerican and failed to recreate the actual diner experience I enjoy so much when in America. There are a plethora of better British cafes closer to me, so no reason to venture back to this one, sadly.

Only give them 1 star as had to choose! Absolute disgrace! Second time we have ordered from these and it's the second time half the food is missing! They can't send the missing food can only give a number to claim the money back. Not good when everyone in the house is poorly and can't get out!!

There was not a single clean table in the restaurant considering every table was empty - the bins were overflowing and the staff were just stood chatting, we werent acknowledged at the counter for 5 minutes whilst they finished their conversation and then when we finally were served Holly W who served us was the most miserbale person i think i have ever known to work in customer service. As she mumbled our order you couldnt even hear her - i asked for a meal you no longer do and then asked if you do something similar to which she looked me up and down and looked up at menu not speaking and rolled her eyes. I honestly am gobsmacked, no acknowledgement from any staff and the whole place was unsanitary. They could actually acknowledge customers as you walk in and serve them without standing having their own conversations while you stand and wait for them to finish for 5 minutes. The all looked like they couldnt be bothered and it was quite uncomfortable.
