The best restaurants serving British food in Amble West with Warkworth Northumberland North East

Best ice cream ever! Even a play area for the children to let off some steam and lovely staff members who were serving me ice cream!

Really impressed, visited today with two friends, what was meant to be for a coffee, decided to go for full breakfast and bacon butties, all served piping hot by friendly staff. Extremely good value for the full breakfast. Slices of cake that others were being served look like very generous portions. Take away prices looked good too.

I will start with an overview of our group purely because I would like the staff/management & any other diners there on the day to remember us. A group of 19 old Harley Davidson riding friends visited The Niblick on July 7th. Our average age is over 60 and we have been friends for several decades. We had travelled for our annual meetup & a ride around beautiful Northumberland and we had booked here for Sunday lunch. The food and service was fine and no complaints there. However it all went wrong when it came to taking payment. Because we are all such old friends, we just divided the bill between us all and it came to £18 per person/£36 per couple. Most restaurants would have walked down the table with a card machine & took all necessary payments and kept track of everything, however they insisted that we all go up one by one to pay, which we did. One couple paid cash which caused a little confusion to the lady taking payments, because she had initially assumed it was going to be a card payment and she had to cancel the transaction and start again. Once everyone had paid the waitress said there was an underpayment of exactually £36. We all knew that this was not possible and that we had all paid our money & had proof on our banking apps and we had witnessed the cash being paid. We asked her to check the till, but she said this was not possible and it could not be done until the evening. Because we are not the sort of group that like a fuss or commotion one of us agreed to pay the extra £36 and the restaurant assured us that they would ring us the next day and arrange us a refund. They never rang us. After a week we had still not heard anything, so we wrote to the manager of the restaurant asking for an explanation and our refund. We again heard nothing. Hence my review. Dear Manager, did your staff pocket the extra £36 (as well as the £40 tip) that day or did you just get to keep it yourself? To future group booking customers, please keep a track of your payments because the restaurant/management clearly cannot!

Buzzing place. Good food. Service quick but so sour and unfriendly. They need to learn to smile and acknowledge when customers are trying to interact with them. Doesn't matter if you're busy, a smile goes a long way.

Our anniversary fell on a Sunday and we wanted something just a bit more special than a pub lunch. The Jackdaw provided this in spades. Quiet and intimate, and the only other diners in there were locals, which is always a good sign. We ate from the standard Sunday lunch menu which provided plenty of options, including a delicious veggie lasagna. Tasty ales from a local brewery and an excellent, attentive friendly service. We were so impressed we booked for a meal at the end of our one week stay, and the chef came out to discuss what vegetarian options I might like. Best to book in advance, as they don't overfill the small restaurant.

What a fantastic find! Absolutely lovely pub! We were served by Joey who was absolutely fabulous and super helpful and was such a nice surprise to have so many vegan options! We had the banana blossom fish and chips with a side of gravy!
