The best restaurants serving British food in Whitley Bay North Tyneside North East

When we come here on holiday (we live in Spain) we always have a meal here, it’s one of our favourites. However something tonight was seriously wrong. The waiter had an air of complete “I don’t care” as he informed us that there was one pie left, no mash and no special left of marry me chicken. OK, we dealt with that and ordered 2 scampi’s the last pie and 1 lasagne. The scampi was dark brown served with chips and had no small amount of garnish to cover up the unappetising plate. The other plates also lacked the usual presentation. Such a shame as my mum who is a pensioner treated us and we felt really bad for her. Won’t return.

This is a great bakers. High quality cakes and pastries with delicious bread. Worth a visit. Staff lovely too. Currently to seating as some refurbishment going on.

As always fabulous, inventive food with excellent service and considered wine pairings.

This was the first visit, my wife and I had the pensioners specials. Food was excellent, portion size was just right. Pleasant genuine attentive staff and very nice surroundings. I had to ask about the mushy peas, best I've tasted... cooked on the premises not from a tin. We used to have a " go to " place in Whitley Bay but I think this is the new one! We will be back

Next to our hotel dead as a dodo did not have my best tiple brandy good views but a waste of a large building.

Always had a fantastic experience with great food and service with Andrew and Alex. Unfortunately the last visit before it changes hands left me with an awful experience that will leave me with a negative memory. One of their staff was rude, pushy and plainly bullying. A long haired woman, who always seemed through various vsits create a less than positive atmosphere when left to run the cafe. Hoping she is not going to be left behind to work in the new cafe to open at the location, would not be a positive start for them. Such a shame after all the hard work by Alex and Andy and pleasure they have brought to so many people.

Called in for breakfast with friends at the weekend. Menu was as expected, providing all of the usual options. We’re quite a discerning bunch and not afraid to offer polite comment if things aren’t as expected. The first indicator of a quality breakfast is the attitude of the waiting staff. This was excellent with attention to every detail which we threw into the mix. Second indicator is the quality of sausage and bacon. No supermarket bargain basement sausage here. Full of flavour and perfectly cooked. Bacon was the same. Cooked perfectly, no white stuff from cheap vacuum packed brands which are laden with water. Presentation: served on hot plates and nicely laid out. Not slapped on the plate without any care or pride. Tea was served in a pot and was full flavour. Overall an excellent breakfast although one of us had a cup of coffee which our friend suggested could have been a bit stronger. Then again he’s a bit of a fuss pot and the staff did listen when he made polite comment about his preferred strength of brew! Definitely will return and definitely recommend.

First time there today,very nice will go back again

We didn't personally sit in on the coffee shop as we were grabbing two coffees to go en route through the pouring rain. The place was heaving! The clientele looked happy and there was a nice local vibe to the place. However, my cappuccino was lukewarm at best although my wife's latte was spot on. I'd like to try them as a sit down experience as they look really good but I can only judge this experience on a tepidly heated cappuccino alas.

Last minute booked a table prior to going to the theatre.

Can never go wrong with spoons !

Chips taste great but I found a rock in my chips! I nearly chipped my tooth from bitting into my chips! Just raising awareness incase there is more rocks in their batch!
