The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Northumberland North East

We have visited the Northumberland Arms twice in the last few days, and on each occasion, the food has been superb. The staff are friendly without being familiar and the food is served promptly with excellent presentation. I have to dig deep to find any negatives, the only - very minor - one being that I would have liked a fork as well as a spoon with which to eat dessert. Highly recommended.

90th Birthday - tables for 15 - Buffet D - absolutely superb. Great food (quality and quantity), warm welcome, superb service. Looked after the cake and served it. They could not have done better.

Great Chinese. Worth the drive from Newbiggin to collect ( they deliver also) Always fresh, tasty food. Cash only though.

We called (with our dog) after a 12 mile walk. The coffee was just what was needed as was the offer of an extra shot! We chose two types of cake and shared - both were delicious. The place is clean and service was quick and efficient. We will return when next in the area

Wishing we had listened to the other reviews posted about Yan's. Chowmein should be a staple dish, but it was inedible (dry, low quality beef and no flavour). The other dishes on our order were also below par. Takeaway service was good, but would not recommend the food. Frustrating as there are limited other choices in Alnwick.

Very friendly. Excellent service. Quality food. Absolutely love it. Love everything they do but the Singapore curry and the Salt & Chilli ribs are amazing..

Nice place nice food, nice staff.

Delicious as always food was delivered on time hot and fresh defo recommend and would order again!

Don’t go anywhere else food is lovely staff are great

Lemon chicken inedible, house special chow mien not much better, sweet and sour house special ok, would I return for a second time? Definitely not, next time I’m in the area I’ll try somewhere else

Food was very good but delivery window given as 7.20 to 7.40 and it arrived at 7.55. Restaurant is 5 mins away.

Always lovely food, big portions and plenty of meat...

piping hot food when it arrived, I ordered the salt and pepper prawns and they were so good! Everything was so flavourful and the customer service aspect of it was very good.. one downfall was the noodles were quite dry so I had to add the sauce but I will definitely be ordering from here again❤️

Best Chinese around fabulous food

Customers be aware!! We have frequented the Royal Garden on numerous occasions over the past years on Family trips to Berwick on Tweed and up to our last visit in November 2024 found it a reasonable all round facility food and service wise. My partner and I have a routine when eating out in both Indian and Chinese Restaurants where, if we order a starter course and Main course with side dishes we chose to take the resulting over burden of food home with us for a future meal. When however we asked the waitress for this facility she informed us that a 60 pence PER CARTON charge is made for the plastic take away trays which I found totally unbelievable and certainly unacceptable. I explained my dis- satisfaction which resulted in me calling for the Manager who was also the cook. He became very aggressive as he felt totally justified with this principal. I said that I cannot believe his logic particularly as in Take Away customers get their Cartons Free of Charge, yet people sitting in the Restaurant purchasing numerous courses and side dishes as well as drinks from the Bar are expected to pay a surcharge. I furthermore pointed this out to him and he responded with a comment which was beyond belief he said "We have to wash your dishes if you sit in the restaurant whereas with take away customers we do not". I pointed out that we frequent the Restaurant several times a year on our visits to Berwick often with a number of friends and asked if he was prepared to lose that future trade over 60p. In my opinion the Manager had tunnel vision and in the light of the meal, without prejudice being the poorest ever we told him to take back the food we ordered and we left empty handed. Result - We will never frequent the place again, I will recommend all my colleagues in the area against going there because of the food which I would give 3 out on 10 at best but more so the principal of this experience. This man has shot himself in the foot big style but appeared so out of tune with logic would not be able to see it. Times are hard and money is scarce, this ,and a bad attitude with poor food quality will lead to their demise in the long term.
