The best restaurants serving British food in Middlehaven Middlesbrough North East

I wanted to say a huge thank you to Mark and his wife from Foodies for providing a fabulous hot food buffet for my partner and his aunts joint birthday party just before Christmas. From initial contact Mark was amazing with helping with concerns and every aspect of the service I have to say was excellent. We had many compliments on the food and will definitely be using Foodies in the future. Keep up the good work. Thanks again Allison & Wayne😀

Three of us went to Pie Jackers before a Boro home game. We were greeted by friendly staff. They offered a range of locally sourced home made pies with mash and mushy peas. Two of us had game pie - a special of the day and our friend had chicken. Excellent food and supplemented by some interesting local ales. Great value! We are certainly going back.

Good coffee, food and very friendly.

Fantastisk mat. Andeconfit var utsøkt og vinene meget gode. Forretten av fisk likeså. Erketypisk engelsk dessert av kastanjenøtter, brandy og fløte ga en super avslutning. Klart det beste måltidet i Middlesbrough

Fresh , tasty and served exquisitely. I've visited here several times and it's a beacon of quality and charm in amongst the over priced coffee chains and ' caffs' in the town centre centre. I had the mashed avocado with poached eggs . The bread was fresh and top quality and the avocado was fresh and generously prese.ted with two perfect poached eggs . The balsamic swirls and chilli flakes set it all off perfectly .

The place itself seems nice enough - a good aesthetic that screams rock n'roll. However, the online presence really lets the place down. "Book a Table" says the website. I booked a table. Only to receive an email saying I didn't need to. When we arrived, two tables were marked "Reserved". Based on information found on the various online sources we could find, my other half (looking to celebrate her birthday), chose SF having seen "a selection of grilled cheese sandwiches", and offers on a "range of cocktails". The evening got off to a poor start when we got to the bar, and the only two non-lager/cider options on the draught drinks were both out of stock. Undeterred, we asked for one of the "range of cocktails", only to be told they were not doing cocktails. Undeterred, we finally found (barely) suitable beverages and found a table. We waited for the menu, and were disappointed to find it was much smaller than the online presence had led us to believe. Calling over one of the staff, we were told "We don't do those anymore". When we pointed out that this really should be updated online, we got "Yeah, its all changing". At which point we left to go home. Where we could enjoy drinks we wanted, and the full array of delights available from local takeaways. One word of advice - if you promise burger and chips, and deliver burger and chips, I'm happy. But if I visit on the basis of online information, and you don't have what you've marketed, I'm going to be elsewhere.

Found by chance and what a pleasant surprise. Lovely inside. Velvet classy comfy chairs. Nice ambience. Staff lovely. Filo pastry brocolli and cheese slices served on gorgious plates and good coffee too. Pity our trips into Middlesbrough are limited tbese days.

We had searched for a nice family friendly pub whilst staying in the centre for the weekend. We wish we had found it earlier. The staff were so friendly, the food fantastic and everything reasonably priced.

We are a family of seven. The breakfast was amazing and staff were too. What a find can’t recommend this cafe enough Thank you

We had breakfast here one morning. Being with young children unfortunately their preference was for McDonalds!! There is no self service buffet during this time, but breakfast was cooked to order and served at our table. Bread was individuallly wrapped and we could toast it ourselves and tea/coffer was self service, There was a one way system marked out round the restaurant.

Wow, impressed with the quality of the food here. Was expecting a simple greasy spoon, but the food was cooked to perfection. Great atmosphere, the staff were really friendly, the food was served in a timely manner and hot, all items were high quality and even though I am not from Middlesbrough, you can tell locals populate frequently as staff new names of people. Amazing, will deffo visit again when in Middlesbrough. Truly recommend if you want a great full English done really well and reasonably priced. For 2 people with a drink cost me £23.

Visit often with people who I work with. They usually get a meal which always looks appetising. Premises need a good refurbishment as looking tatty at the moment. It’s always busy which indicates it must be doing something right!

Visited today with my sister and two children. Staff wonderful very friendly. Even put baked beans in a container so they didn't touch the rest of her food! Two parmos (Groupon) and two drinks - excellent food

Ordered a tuna and salad bun and got next to no tuna and the salad was just shot in. Took one bite and binned it, won’t be rushing back shocking bit of service.

Really friendly place whether you want food or drink.. first time here but very nice atmosphere 😉
