The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Collingwood North Tyneside North East

Must be a new waiting, customer service team, rude arrogant and won't be returning

Truly and unapologetically awful. Grumpy 'barista' served two cold (expensive) coffees. Took back. No apology. They said "thays hoe the machine is". Served two tepid coffees. Omelette ap-omelette tasted weeks old-no flavour, no seasoning. Would say avoid-but Hobsons choice this side of Silverlink. M and S-sort yourselves out or go the way of Woolies, Timothy Whites to retail oblivion. Expensive and poor is not a good look.

The food is always of a high standard but the service is chaotic! The cafe is usually busy but often appears understaffed. Usually one person taking orders and another making drinks but sometimes one person doing everything. Often difficult to find a cleared table to sit and then you wait for anything that needs heating or cooking. One person waiting tables can spend valuable time wandering the floor looking for a designated number to deliver the prepared food. Then they return to the kitchen to repeat the activity and if sauce is required then further delays ensue. Staff are helpful and friendly difficult to say whether this cafe is understaffed or mismanaged.
