The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in County Durham North East

I treated my friend for her birthday to tea here. Absolutely amazing, delicious home made cakes, scones and sandwiches. The atmosphere is really warm and welcoming and well worth a return visit.

Wow, wow, wow. This was a very wonderful surprise to dine here. We were expecting average/ good pub food and we got restaurant standard wonderful food. The cod fish dish was exceptionally good, and the chocolate expresso ice cream pudding was divine. What a fabulous place…. and just wish we lived locally. The very delightful waitress made our visit even more lovely. This was the best meal we have had in the Durham area.

Following our mid-afternoon arrival and check-in at Durham’s Hotel Indigo, my wife and I had some time to kill before our room was ready so, feeling peckish, we decided to take advantage of what was on offer in the conveniently located Neighbourhood Coffee House and we were not disappointed. Notwithstanding the delicious and satisfying homemade pie of the day and excellent coffee on offer, the service we received from Harper, the young employee on counter duty at the time, was exemplary in every respect. Her welcoming manner and friendly efficiency put our three day break on the best of footings and she deserves every plaudit that doubtless comes her way.

Popped in with friends just for a cupper on a quiet Monday afternoon and ended up having food and a mocktail. Really friendly staff and lovely food. Will definitely be returning as the cocktails looked great, and the menu looked like there was a lot more to tempt me.

The cheese is delicious and so are the pickles. I have eaten here twice. Each time, there was nowhere near enough bread - one and a half slices per person, and tiny cheese biscuits for a generous supply of cheese. This place is not cheap and I would rather have more bread and larger biscuits to go with the cheese. Each person is given only one knife, when several would be better, when moving from a blue cheese to a white cheese, for example. There was not enough butter for the table and a tiny little piece of fruitcake, although it tasted good. The new system of hosting groups only after shutting the cafe is fine, but I did not want to hear a long story about the business history when there was an agenda for the event on the day and an opportunity for group members to socialise.

Had the most amazing festive afternoon tea here with friends. Everything was delicious & a party member with coeliac disease was well looked after. Nothing was too much trouble. I believe that everything was made with love....sign of the best establishmets.

Lovely milkshake and coffee perfect from one fussy coffee drinker. Lovely staff always friendly and asking if you need help. 5 out of 5 stars.

Best hot chocolate ever! First time sitting in today but had takeout whilst I worked in Consett. Food always great! Would recommend!

Quite noisy and couldn't concentrate when I volunteered here and it got too much but staff are friendly.

Took a friend here today for her birthday, had coffees, it wasnt very hot, orderded the sausage with caramalised onion and cheese cibatta,drank our coffee, still no food, waited over half a hour for our sandwich, when it eventually came, i presume it was the manager, he said smile and took a photo of the sandwich, i made a comment that we had waited half a hour and he went and spoke to the member of staff who served us, he came over and said the kitchen is only small, that is no excuse, they had forgot about what we had ordered, because when i said what we were waiting for it was only warmed up then, i have put comments on here before, and they have always been good, but unfortunately today was a different matter, We even had to get a drink of water to drink with our sandwich, has we had finished our coffee in five minutes, We like this cafe and live about 10 miles away from it, wernt even offered another drink. POOR SERVICE on this occassion, they started talking in italian when i complainted, very unprofessional.

First time at The Ginger Dog today for a birthday bash. Roast dinner and sticky toffee pud were amazing. Part of a large party and the service was amazing. Would highly recommend !!!

A lovely little cafe. We came here this morning on route home after our holiday. The full English breakfast tasted amazing made with quality items. The bacon was nice and thick. The sausages were tasty and the friend eggs were dippy just the way I like them. Good price and the service was great too. Highly recommend.

Found this cafe a couple of weeks ago and I have already been 3 times. Food quality is excellent and always great service.

Friend and I enjoyed a fantastic brunch not for the first tile either this place ir spotlessly clean, nice menu, friendly helpful staf at fair prices 5 star breaky all the way try it ??

Lovely candlelit afternoon tea on a very cold snowy Sunday. Homemade cakes, sandwiches, scones & trifle and a warm welcome by the lady running the tearoom. A bit of a walk from the centre of Durham in the snow for two visiting ladies, but worth the trek. You do need to pre-book.
