The best restaurants serving British food in North East

Great ice cream and service. Brought out water for everyone waiting in line.

This is a long overdue review for the perfect restaurant! I can’t fault the place or the food or the amazing staff :) you get to know them and their service and kindness is second to none having been so very well looked after by Ben, Charlotte, Daisy and Paddy in the last six months. We had a long leisurely afternoon graduation celebration meal last year and we often go for special occasions like a birthday. The food is amazing, so perfect to look at and it’s great getting the explanation per course! This restaurant has always accommodated different dietary arrangements and taken the time to understand and if required create a bespoke menu. Someone in our family requires this and with essentially a vegan/ veggie menu, this now offers a very rare and appreciated fine dining opportunity. The care and attention to offer this in addition to the set menus is over and above what most NE restaurants do in our experience. This is impressive given kitchen demands we see on telly programmes. We were there last weekend and had an amazing time. My daughter and husband always have 9 courses ( you can choose to do so on the day) but I can’t manage more than six. The portion sizes are decent and you certainly don’t leave hungry and we did take the petits fours home - nice next day with a cuppa. The calibre of food is easily on a par and often better than many of the Newcastle equivalents ( like Blackfriars, cafe 21) so it’s definitely worth crossing the millennium bridge to try. The views are also amazing from the top in the day and as the lights set and the bridge is lit in different colours. Perfect :) A little tip - if you sign up to Six emails then twice a year you get the opportunity to purchase vouchers and then you get twenty percent off the food. These usually have six months on so it’s a great way to enjoy Six and get a discount.

Absolutely amazing experience. The staff are extremely professional and I was particularly impressed by the Sommelier as I was choosing the wine. The food was exactly what we expected based on the restaurant having a Michelin Star. We will definitely be returning for the tasting menu.

Always a lovely visit here . The food is always good and the staff are amazing .

Excellent Sunday dinner really good and an interesting location.

Booked for my partner's Birthday Sunday Lunch..We booked for 12 noon and it was surprisingly very quiet today while we were there . Served by a very nice young lady, we always find staff here lovely, prompt service. We had the regular Sunday lunch. I had pork and my partner went for the beef. I have to say there was too much meat on the plate for me so I couldn't do it justice but my partner cleared his plate as it was beautiful..We have never had a bad meal here, that is why we always pick the Green Tree to go to.

Great atmosphere Dan and Jack always a pleasure to talk to Best pub in the area

Lovely cozy pub. Plenty of parking. Great ambience. Beautifully presented food. Seabass was spot on. Quite busy but didn't have to wait long for food to come out. Will definitely return. Compliments to Chef Graham.

Several of my friends and I were camping down the road and booked in, locals we got talking to were lovely, there was a great vibe to the place and the food was fantastic. Food was expensive but warrented the cost with how nice it was, you get what you pay for! Would highly recommend!

This is a village community pub that we visit for three reasons First to help the community. Secondly for the superb food, the home made steak pie is a big favorite. And the third is the friendliness.of staff and customers.

On the road in the campervan. This was a planned stopover but we missed the food cut off by 1minute. The staff here were super helpful with the WiFi & advice on the local area. Lots of choice for drinks. A pint and a half of Madri was £7.30. Beautiful part of the coastline to explore.

We drove past this place a few weeks ago. It looked so inviting that the three of us tried to get in but as it is such a popular place there was quite a waiting time. Despite being disappointed we vowed to return another day. We returned today and to our delight we were able to be accommodated immediately. So glad we chose to return. As soon as you enter the place the décor just grabs your attention. There were hearts everywhere you looked. The plates with your meal on are even heart -shaped - as well as the spoons. How nice is that? The place is beautifully decorated in bright colours with a certain appeal for young and old. I’m sure the kids would love to eat in such delightful surroundings. The menu is more than adequate to satisfy most people. The portions are very generous, and the chips, that come with some of the meals, deserve a special mention – they are to die for. We were too full from the main meal - but maybe next time we can leave enough room to sample the desserts. The staff make you very welcome - being very attentive and polite. We were served by the very capable and charming Leah, who smiled throughout the time she attended to us. In fact, all of the staff went about their duties in the most pleasant of manner. A big thank you to all the staff for turning our first visit in to a wonderful experience. For the effort that the management and the staff put into making your visit a pleasant one this place certainly deserves to be successful. Give it a try – you won’t be disappointed.

Visited for Sunderland Restaurant Week (3 courses for £20). Our first time visiting but won’t be the last! Lovely cosy atmosphere, themed around Alice in Wonderland. Decorated really quirkily, with some really interesting pieces of Alice art. Staff were so friendly and welcoming, taking the time to come to chat at the table. The food was so, so nice. Beautifully cooked and well presented. Not a bad thing to say about this place. Already looking forward to next time.

Excellent quality of food. Lush lean chicken, very tasty and piping hot. Not the cheapest but definitely worth it

The staff are lovely. The food was quick. We used it twice in our 3 day stay
