The best restaurants serving Spanish food in North East

Great coffee and great service, the perfect location to grab and drink and walk along the river tees and visit the tees barrage. Service was good and the price very reasonable.

First visit to the tiny restaurant Sobremesa. What a delight. The wine recommendation was spot on, and the small plates were fabulous. Highly recommend.

This honestly might be the nicest food I’ve ever had! The patatas bravas are absolutely out of this world and we also had the steak, mustard chicken and meatballs-all of which were equally incredible. The staff are so lovely and the restaurant is nice and small with an authentic vibe to it, which is perfect for couples or to catch up with friends and family :)

Really chilly in the restaurant, they need some heating on, not great.

Fast, friendly, and efficient service, food was lovely.

First visit today & won't be the last. Excellent service & the food was delicious.

Monday night visit. Very few other places offering food in Whitley Bay on a Monday. Fab meat platter and delicious wine.

Just ordered takeaway delivery , Came on time and Came piping hot, everything was tasty ! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 100% be reordering!

Lush food, great choice of drinks, great atmosphere, fab music and all with amazing service! Well worth popping in and we will be back!

Fuimos a comer a este lugar con un compañero que reside en Newcastle, ya nos aviso de que no era un magnifico restaurante, ni un lugar muy acogedor ya que esta en un local de un centro comercial que esta desierto Lo regentan un matrimonio que son colombianos, por ello el servicio fue excelente pero lo que mas nos sorprendio ya que nuestro compañero no nos lo dijo fue que ellos habian estado en España y su Tiendita era casi el 50% de productos españoles. Podeis imaginar este dia en que consistio nuesta comida, chorizos riojanos, fabada, pa amb tomaquet i pernil, tortillas, etc etc.todo ello regado con un buen vino del Penedes, en resumen una gran comilona y por ello nos sentimos como en casa Relacion precio - calidad muy razonable. Aparte de este pequeño restaurante tienen la pequeña Tiendita donde puedes comprar los productos españoles. LA LASTIMA fue lo que nos comunico puesto que era muy amigo de nuestro compañero y nos dijo que en Enero o Febrero tenia que dejar el local porque una inmobiliaria habia comprado todo el edificio y tenia que cerrar el negocio al menos durante 2 años, una verdadera lastima ya que este pequeño rincon en plena ciudad era como un remanso de paz. Sin lugar a dudas era un lugar para recomendar por el buen trato y amabilidad y poder recordar un trocito de nuestro pais.

Had a lovely night, and Adi was awesome!

Best food in town, don't miss it !!

Outstanding Experience at El Castillo Tapas Restaurant (23rd Jan 2025) From the moment we walked into El Castillo, we were blown away. The food was absolutely outstanding—beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. Every dish was crafted with such care and attention to detail, it was clear the chef took great pride in their work. The service was equally amazing. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The ambience of the restaurant was perfect—warm, inviting, and full of charm, creating the ideal setting for a wonderful dining experience. On top of all this, the pricing was very reasonable for the quality of food and service provided. El Castillo is a real gem in Bishop Auckland, and we will definitely be back. I cannot recommend this place highly enough! Great Food, Great Service and a Great Evening!!

We enjoyed the food we had no problems with that, it was the lack of atmosphere the place is large inside so it really could do with something to make it look more inviting, just my opinion sorry.

Date night at this bar was Fantastic.Cocktails were amazing and food was delicious with huge portions ,staff were great very friendly eill definitely be back .
