The best restaurants serving British food in Berwick North Northumberland North East

Called this morning as local but not visited before. Met by a young chap with zero people skills, and I’d guess the proprietors sat in the window beside the doorway. Was told by lady in subdue that for cafe, go sit through there & order at counter. Menu says scones served warm which I hate, so asked for two not warned. I can see how earned is mention as they were as stale as! When cut, went to sheer crumbs. Coffee obvs from a push button machine and that’s fine, however we couldn’t drink them as tasted chemically. Just really unpleasant start to finish and with a tip on ordering I bless £15 lighter in pocket. When there’s local competition with pleasant service and quality bakes I’d maybe suggest a rethink if trying here.

Afternoon tea for 1 and lunch for 1 Whilst my friend really enjoyed her lunch of risotto the same cannot be said for afternoon tea, this was a gift for a special Birthday, we were seated straight away and ordered drinks and our food, I was never offered the aternoon tea menu and was most surprised when it arrived and found that 2 of the 4 finger sandwiches were not what I would ever eat, I told the waiting person and she said rather bluntly that I didn't say what I wanted..I then informed her I was never ever given a menu or told of the choices..I was never offered an alternative, I then had to ask for coffee to have with our meal as was again never offered or asked before the meal arrived, the scone.with clotted cream and jam was delicious but this is where it ended, the small raspberry choux bun was still cold inside, not long out of freezer along with a small stale square of carrot cake and a slice of red and green battenburg type of cake which was stuck to the serving board, my friend ate the macaron which was OK, I had to ask for more coffee,they may have been short staffed but in the 2.5 hours we were there on 6 people in total were in dining area, I am very disappointed, I always feel that when you leave food you are never asked if you enjoyed it or was there anything not to your liking as they don't want to know, I wouldn't recommend the afternoon tea but would the lunch, I think a bit of staff consistency would be good as the person in the smarter attire was obviously more experienced and customer friendly than the person waiting on

Disgusting ordered two fish suppers, served by a male wearing a wooly hat. The person cooking was dressed like he had been out digging tatties, the chios were awful and appeared to have been cooked in dirty fat later that night my partner had stomach pains!!! not a surprise.

Been here before perhaps last year, and recalled it was quite nice so I was passing on my own and decided to call in for a coffee and cake. I liked the look of the Victoria sponge that looked homemade so ordered a piece of that and a cappuccino. The young girl serving me said to pay at the end when I’d finished. I knew I wouldn’t be ordering anything else and didn’t want to have to join a queue again so said I’d pay now. She looked awkward and then said £11.75. I said she must’ve made a mistake but confirmed it was correct. The cake was £7.10!!!! Now I like cake but I don’t £7.10 like it. She said it was because if blah blah blah, I’d zoned out though as I was so stunned. I said then I’d have a piece of coffee and walnut - also £7.10. Errrrr no. She said the shortbread was cheaper at £3.50. I don’t want shortbread and then felt like she’s offering me something cheaper because she thinks I can’t afford it. I decided not to bother as I wasn’t going to be ripped off. No wonder you’re told to pay afterwards as it’s too late then! No prices on any of the cakes, I guess it’s because nobody would ever order one then! This is a cafe in Berwick love, not The Ritz! I’ll expect to see it’s closed down by the new year as none of the locals are going to go in and pay those prices!

This was a lunch experience I will not repeat. Upon arrival the cafe was busy but many tables were unable to be used as they were covered in dirty crockery. The staff walked past the tables empty handed several times and made no attempt to clear the tables. I eventually cleared a table myself. The service at the order point is incredibly slow and several mistakes were made with our order. After a very long wait, food started to arrive in dribs and drabs. Sandwiches were eaten before I eventually returned to the counter to enquire about drinks and the rest of the order. Staff made no comment as I questioned the delay in our order or when I had to return incorrect items. The milk for my tea was served in a tea pot which I had incorrectly presumed was extra hot water. This is such a shame as it could be a good place as the food was nice.

-0 experience, terrible, diabolical. Burnt sausage. Poached ? Egg was the hardest poached egg ever produced. Salty bacon. Tasteless. Bread toasted, rubbish and soggy runny butter.

Stopped off for breakfast and found automation had caught up with Morrisons, in the form of an automated ordering system. Finding our way around the screen wasn't quite as easy as big Mac and KFC equivalents but we did manage it, only just. Wanting to pay by cash, however, was even more difficult as the robot doesn't accept anything except credit cards so customer, much against the chagrin, had to use plastic. The breakfasts, when they arrived, was excellent and without doubt value for plastic.

Great pub, dog friendly nice food

Visited this cafe 10 Nov 2024 2pm. We were on a coach trip travelling back to Leeds so looking for sandwiches to take on coach. Very little choice. Ordered two tuna and one coronation chicken sandwich and charged £25.50. This was the only cafe open on the island selling food that day so no choice but to pay. Alternative was a dried up sausage roll for £4. Staff attitude, take it or leave it, I didn’t set the prices.
