The best restaurants serving Default food in Hartley 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.

I've never been disappointed with the food I have ordered from here and I've been coming here since I was a child way back in the 60's and 70s to the present day. These days I can bearly manage a pensioners meal ( fish bite and chips) as they are so big, I usually have a pot of coffee too....keep up the good work

Such a really nice place to celebrate with a really lovely view and chilled out surroundings. we thought the staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was really nice and we had everything we needed to enjoy this special day so thank you to you all.

Lovely place, lovely meal. Great staff

Highly recommend this tea shop for delicious food and very friendly staff.

We were staying at the very nearby Old Hartley campsite and decided to book Sunday lunch for ourselves and 2 friends. Two of us had the pork, one had beef and the other chicken. All stunning. The meat was excellent quality and well cooked. The Yorkshire Pudding tasty, lovely selection of veg and gravy. Probably one of the best Sunday lunches I’ve had in a while. Excellent service and food was beautifully presented. 2 had the chocolate caramel brownie for dessert which again was excellent. All in all a lovely Sunday lunch. Thank you.

We visited in the evening on a Friday and after a short wait, were pleasantly served with large portions of haddock and chips with mushy peas. Th food was great. Thoroughly recommend but be prepar d for a short wait at peak times to get a table. Takeaways also available.

Four of us got 8 different ice creams today and they were all sublime. Service was also excellent plus they catered for gluten free. Excellent

Excellent food, excellent real ale and a view to die for.

We visited as a family of four, we each had something different and the food was delivered promptly, all at the same time and all piping hot. We all said how tasty the food was, and we returned the following evening where the quality was the same. We will be returning on our next visit.

Excellent customer service by Sharon!

Might have been a bad day at the office but not sure what the hype is after having read some really good reviews. Booking for 3 adults 2 children (2&7)12:00 on Sunday 27th Oct. We initially wanted to come for the seafood platter, however, this was unavailable on a Sunday which can't be helped. We opted for 2 Sunday lunches, 1 salmon, and a sausage and mash. All of the veg that was served with the mains was luke warm at best, the Yorkshire pudding with one of the mains was burnt, the mash was lumpy, the roasts were in my opinion inedible (hard and dry on the inside and the skin was tough and soggy as if cooked from frozen or reheated), no cutlery was given, the salmon was swimming in a sauce almost as if it were a soup (could be preference but not how I would serve it personally). We were asked twice if everything was OK and we said unfortunately not and specified why. The service stated that they check on this for us but nothing was mentioned or escalated and we paid full price for all meals. We would have returned to try the seafood platter (as we've heard good things) if some effort was made to potentially refund part of the meals but no effort was made to rectify this. In addition to this we had to wipe down our table, seats and high chair as they were dusty and unclean. The gents toilets were very unclean also. We went to an Italian chain restaurant the week before and the food was far superior and better value for money. Overall, quite disappointing given the reputation from positive reviews.
