The best restaurants serving British food in Marton Middlesbrough North East

Always great service and food when we come here!

Been past this place for 30 years and never been in so decided to try it for a drink on a sunny afternoon. First impressions Seating outside not great and frontage needs a good sweep and lick of paint. It’s a great location so show it to all the potential passing trade. Flower it up. Advertised German food but not serving due to a pre booked walking party. Inside was confused. Bar had food snacks and stuff all over it. After four minutes after entering a man appeared and was quite sarcastic when my wife asked for tomato juice. Beer was tasty and good pint. Bar Rooms needs clear out and a defined purpose Another elderly couple arrived and left soon stating they had been given a menu then told no food. We will not visiting again due to the man, state of rooms and confused identity of place. Was it a coffee place. German food. Bar or bed and breakfast. A real shame as it has real potential but plug German food and beer but have it to serve but be welcoming to everyone and honest.

It was embarrassing how poor the face to face customer service was today. I don’t know if something had happened between the staff but really poor to the point of no acknowledgement or words at all.

Went to the garden centre hoping to find some nice home accessories and gardening items (which there was none of because of christmas, i get that it was december but how can you call it a garden centre when there’s no indoor plants or hardly any gardening items). The cafe was absolutely horrible. We were prepared to pay the extortionate prices if the food seemed appetising at all, but £9+ for a soggy wet undercooked toastie is insane. The cakes were about £5 and were inedible as if they had been out for weeks. The worst part of the visit was the state of the cafe. There was nowhere to sit at all because of the amount of food and dirt all over the floors, seats and the tables. There was streaks of ‘mud’ on the floor under one of the tables in the corner, although it did have a smell to it so not too sure if it was mud! The tables all had food left on them and trays. And we were there for about an hour and still nothing was cleared away. I realise it was rather busy but surely in the festive season leading up to christmas you would want the cafe to be more appealing and would consequently put on more staff. There was crumbs everywhere covering the whole floor with spilt food and drink. It sounds like an over exaggeration but it was honestly horrible. Me and my partner felt very uncomfortable to be sat in such a filthy place but couldn’t leave because of the prices we just spent for terrible food. Even if it was inedible we felt the need to eat it because of the sheer amount of money wasted. NEVER AGAIN! We went to strikes after this disaster of a garden centre and cafe and let me just tell you i breathed a sigh of relief when we sat in their clean, tidy and lovely cafe. Would not recommend cherry hill at all when there’s so many other centres near.
