The best restaurants serving British food in North East

I had a really good experience here today, all the staff were so friendly and welcoming, the food was out of this world all fresh and home made to a very high standard, I can’t wait for my next visit here! 10/10

I visit this café almost every week, and it never disappoints! The service is always excellent, and the quality is outstanding, all at a very reasonable price. The food is absolutely delicious, and their scones are simply unforgettable – the best you’ll ever try. I highly recommend stopping by this wonderful café; you won’t regret it!

Food below average, customer service a mixture of good and bad. I ordered a breakfast with orange juice and on seeing the low quality kids' carton of orange juice with a straw, I rejected it. It had printed on the side "orange juice drink" which is usually on artificial orange juice cartons made with cheap flavouring and colouring. The waiter took it away, and then I was surprised to find the cafe manager, a strange looking woman with orange skin and purple hair, somewhat like one of Roald Dahl's Oompa-loompas standing over me and shouting at me that the content of the carton was "fresh orange". I was completely taken aback. I'd rejected it and didn't expect overbearing and threatening behaviour from one of the locals. As it turned out, the carton was a carton of orange juice, that is, squeezed orange juice made from concentrate. But I still didn't want it. It wasn't fresh, and it was cheap and nasty looking. She didn't seem to understand that it having been in a carton for weeks did not make it "fresh orange". Instead, she seemed to think I wanted orange squash when I told her I wanted real orange juice, straight from an orange. She just went on and on at me. It's a minor thing, a misunderstanding of terminology, but I was not feeling well, and she basically bullied me into accepting it. The English breakfast when it came was dreadful. I had asked for the bacon to be crispy. Instead, it was hard and cardboard-like. Everything was just low quality - the bread - everything - which the juice carton should have told me. I'll never go again. I didn't know the idea was to replicate the experience of the 1970s, when train food had a reputation for being awful and service worse, but you live and learn.

Called in today for breakfast with the wife and her friend, Everything thing we had was very good quality and excellent valve for money also the staff were extremely friendly, Give it a try you won't be disappointed 😁

One of the best hand folded pizzas I’ve tried so far!! Everything tastes so fresh and amazing.really recommend, Love it.

Very nice and great flavours which are delicious. Nice seating area with benches. The cones are waffle cones which are great.

Very clean and very welcoming. Very good freshly made food and complimentary service. Easy parking and worth support.

Fantastic food and service. choice of menu was good well presented quick and served hot all meals together.

Delicious crispy batter on beautifully cooked fish. Chips were spot on. I have eaten from here several times and the good quality is always maintained. Highly recommend it.

Great fish and chips. Sometimes have to wait a little while but that's because it's popular!

Seriously tasty fish and chips. Both cod and haddock were of a generous size, beautifully flaky and white, and with crisp but not overly greasy batter. Chips were spot on too.

Visited very early in the year,first time here didn't know what to expect.Think I need a visit later in year to see gardens.

Visited today (Sunday 18th) as it's our place to come to for a fantastic Sunday dinner! We were welcomed as normal on our table of choice. I opted for a new choice on the menu of lamb and my husband got his favourite pink topside. Our food came and as noticed by both it was all completely different as normal. My husband's topside was not pink. The lamb was fatty and inedible, roast potato's leathery, gravy was watery, veg overcooked and everything unseasoned. Unfortunately we had to send both meals back. Our worst experience. we also visited through the week for lunch and our beef sandwich was too tough and inedible. The young lady serving us apologised and explained that all the chefs had left the previous week and she was also due to leave due to new poor managment. This is a massive shame to what was once our favourite place to eat. We will not be back.
