The best restaurants serving British food in South Tyneside North East

A gorgeous little traditional bakery with so many amazing products on offer. Visited to pick up some cakes for the office, you are absolutely spoiled for choice when it comes to sweet treats. I ordered a selection, opting for the Manchester tart cheesecake for myself, which was unreal! The staff were all really friendly and served everyone as quickly as possible, as it was incredibly busy. I can’t wait to go back again to try out some of the fresh bread and pies!

Jess and family had a lovely day at pooches cafe. Helping Luna celebrate her birthday . Blaze and Callum are amazing hosts welcoming and friendly . Human food is amazing my two boys recommend chocolate cake it was best they ever tasted . And pooches party food looked just as good . Nothing was any trouble Blaze and Callum happily helped with any requests to keep both humans and pooches happy . Well worth a visit with your 4 legged friends.

Filtrona park or as it now known as ‘cloud arena’ is home to South Shields FC, a team with big ambitions football wise. The addition of a marquee adds the revenue from events, parties or weddings. We were impressed by the venue and staff and the dj, buffet hot and cold.

My husband had fond memories of playing pinball in the old Cyprus back in the 80s so was interested in going into the new Cyprus for nostalgias sake. It has certainly changed. Bright lights, loud music, very full even on a Thursday night. Games of bingo and blind cards, full bar. Sometimes good memories should stay that way, it’s a different and popular pub now.

First time of visiting this dessert treat shop and there was a great selection of hot and cold desert e.g. waffles and cakes on offer. The milkshakes were made fresh for you based on your choice of sweets, slushes and more. Great friendly staff -service with a smile and a nice atmosphere in the shop with seating. Parking outside and easy to access from the main road. The rainbow cake was amazing I will be back to try out more of the different cakes.

The counters and fridge were well stocked and there was a good selection of products. They do boxed up hot meals e.g. breakfast boxes and chips etc... pastries, plate pies and sandwiches. The staff were friendly and the shop clean. I ordered a Saveloy Dip it was served hot and was a good portion size.

Value for money is an understatement. The breakfasts are outstanding and the daily specials lovely choice

I’m not an ice-cream person, but this ice-cream was absolutely delicious. We tried coconut, pistachio, strawberry, frozen hot cocoa and chocolate mocha – all incredible! High quality. Perfect flavor. The atmosphere and service were great. Worth every bit of the hype!

Small, quaint and comfortable Indian restaurant located in Westoe, South Shields. Although not located on Ocean Road (with the vast majority of I dia eateries in Shields) I have to say that the food and service was amongst the very best of Indian Restaurants where I have eaten. Friday evening g and very busy (full) is a testament to how good this place is. Two course meal for two, with a bottle of wine came in at a tad below £70. Well worth it!! Looking forward to returning again. Probably my 'new go-to' Indian restaurant. Very highly recommended.

I've just been serves a peri chicken burger and it was cold, hard and very unpleasant. Thankfully the waitress was helpful, can't say much about the chef who apparently cooked my burger.

Went for Christmas afternoon tea today. Been many times before and it’s always been lovely however today there was a hair imbedded in the scone! The server ( bald headed guy) didn’t apologise or say sorry just said unfortunately these things happen! It really put me off the rest of the tea I actually felt a bit sick, surely an apology wouldn’t have been too much? Not good enough 👎

Nice food and excellent service

Table booked for 7.30pm. Pub very messy, no carvery left. Told a 45 minute wait for food. Cued at bar, staff member very friendly and helpful. I asked if they had any chicken dinners left, she said not sure, I'll check. She asked another staff member who listed things not available (chicken not among them). So I ordered 2 dinners and 2 drinks. 15 minutes later staff member came over to say no chicken dinners so had to re-order. Staff member not really bothered when I complained. Still waiting for food, not impressed! Won't come again!

We visited The Travelling Man for Dinner. The waitress seated us quickly and offered us drink. We had a good look over the the menu and there was a few great options. I opted for the beef brisket with fries and gravy. We waited around 15 minutes for the food to arrive. The meat was very tender and melted in the mouth and accompanied with the fries and gravy, it made for a great filling meal.

Santa experience and coffee shop. Santa experience was amazing with a wonderful walk through toy land ending with a sleigh ride and Santa visit. Then a coil to choose a toy from a shop full of a wide variety of good quality toys. We then had a gingerbread latte and festive sandwich which was delicious. Staff are lovely and prices reasonable. It's been a magical day for our boy
