Visited in August while in Hexham. A surprisingly beautiful and ancient abbey. It was freezing to enter but a donation is requested, but not mandatory. You can also pay £3.50 to down into the crypt. Well worth a visit if you in the area.

Lovely Abbey Church in a town also worth visiting. Very beautiful building with lots of interesting things to see( view photos). No entrance fee but you can give a donation either by card machine or cash. Very peaceful place with seperate chapel for private prayer.

Absolutely fantastic abbey that is vibrant, active & well worth the entry fee. We paid the extra to go down the steep steps to the original crypt from 673/4...the crypt itself was built from recycled stone from a Roman bridge at Corbridge. Roman carving & inscriptions are clear to see in the stonework. When we visited GAIA (a revolving globe art installation) was in the abbey. It looked fantastic. As a bonus the café was lovely & on a sunny day sitting in the courtyard would be bliss.

Lovely place to look at. Unfortunately we arrived late in the day so only got to enjoy the exterior of the building. They were ringing the bells which was nice. Next to the abbey is a park and the railings of the park are covered in knitted/crocheted poppies which was beautiful to see. Well done to those who made the poppies.

So beautiful. We have English Heritage card but if you don't, I would still recommend buying a ticket to look round

Beautiful welcoming Abbey. We were warmly greeted and welcomed into the Abbey. Beautiful building, free entry but you are able to donate (which I recommend). They also have a shop, cafe and toilets. I found this a very accessible please with on street disc parking nearby. Worth the visit.

A lovely Abbey. Friendly receptionist at the entrance taking tickets to see the massive Earth display. Take a moment to reflect on one's life through our planet Earth and our fragile ecosystem.

Absolutely amazing place to visit. 10th of whole site uncovered. Brilliant audio to go with the site. Free car park. Toilets in the car park. Lovely informative museum. Friendly staff.

Excellent place to visit. We arrived just in time for a free guided tour, 2.30pm. Paul, the guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the site and the areas Roman history in general.

Well worth a visit. The free audio tour enhances the outdoor experience and the timeline and indoor museum certainly helped with wider context. Helpful staff too.

A fantastic visual display of story telling around Corbridge's Roman history. The exhibition to start with was very interesting and the remains of the Roman town are easy to relate to with the audio tour which is included. Take an audio jack for headphones to best take it in.

A splendid museum, full of artefacts and very informative displays . The town itself is extensive. To best understand it and its history and evolution over time, use the free audio guides provided. They are excellent.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The audio sets were great and explained everything in detail. And the museum part was fantastic, showing just how advanced the Romans were

Well worth the visit! The free audio guide is excellent and adds to the outside experience. The Museum timeline and exhibits provide a great overview of the Roman habitation in the area.

Fantastic place!!!! The history behind the place, the drinks, the atmosphere - can't ask for more. Cocktails have a generous amount of alcohol. Seasonal mead is absolutely delicious. Upstairs, there is a beautiful seating near the fireplace. And the stuff is so lovely and friendly! We've been back many times. Thank you for keeping this historic building alive 🙏

We didn't eat, but the tea was grand, and my beer was superb. They have a massive selection of bottled beers. It is a joy to sit in a still functional building that was built in 1318! Not the best place for tall people, and I doubt the stairways would be great for fat folk either. Great atmosphere, lovely staff, and a German radio station for background music.

Great venue. Converted tower with two floors above the bar. Specialises in flavoured gins and matched tonics. Delicious. Can recommend the blood orange combo and their cocktails. Lady running the bar is super helpful. I visited twice during my stay in Corbridge. A real treat.

What a wonderful place to sit and have a coffee, in my case, but plenty of others having an alcoholic drink from their vast selection and Craft/ Guest beers too! The building has 3 floors within the old Pele (Peel) Tower. Very creatively decorated too. Do visit if you’re around the area. Nice chap running it too btw.

There's nowhere quite like this... quite possibly the most atmospheric pub I've ever visited. It's not the biggest inside but there are plenty of nooks and crannies so it's not hard to find a place - with seating across three floors. Almost feels like if an English heritage or National Trust site became a wee bar... very special.

Really unusual and unique but also so friendly and genuinely welcoming. Many thanks especially to amazing Ashley and regular Mark who made us laugh so much. Beware the stairs but well worth it for a weird and wonderful climb back into history and wee nook of comfort and cookieness

Wow! What an incredible place. It really is unique. It's on several floors, with a mezzanine level. Steep, tight, concrete, original stairways leading to different floors and rooms. So we'll decorated. Live music, on certain evenings and times. A selection of wines for sale on the groundfloor, as well as a lovely bar area. Barman was welcome and friendly. Loved every bit of it !!

So the beer garden and staff were lovely. One dish however spoiled what would have been a lovely lunch. We’d had the risotto here before and it was lovely. This time it was awful. Dry fried rice with peas, overcooked fish and bouncy scallops. The issue is once you have to send food back a lunch is ruined as one person has to wait whilst the others feel guilty eating. Refunded the plate no problem but should have been better. Waiter did try to say that the chef may not have used cream to explain why it was drier than the Sahara. My wife mentioned that it did say “creamy risotto” on the specials menu….. Was a shame.

Have been here a few times on our holiday here - both for a drink and to eat - and I have to say that it’s been a consistently good quality. Service is friendly and efficient and food is definitely at the superior end of the pub food spectrum. Sunday lunch was great (and HUGE) and the lamb shank shepherds pie and toad in the hole were both super. Nice selection of cask ale and a decent wine list. I’ve been disillusioned with Greene King since they destroyed Loch Fyne (an annoying tragedy) and a couple of poor pubs. This place suggests it is all about who owns/manages the individual establishment. And these folks are good. Highly recommended

After reading the reviews on the Black Bull regarding the food on offer we decided to go here for our lunch probably wasn't the wisest decision we have made lately...🙄🙄. On entering we were approached by a very welcoming, polite member of staff who asked where we would like to sit then handed us the menus we sat at a table then choose Toad 🐸🐸 in the hole 🕳 & chicken🐓, leek and cheese 🧀 pie. That's were the description and reality separated. The sausages in the toad in the hole were hot and tasty but the skin was a bit on the thick chewy side the Yorkshire pudding batter was more like tough shoe 👞 leather and totally inedible. The chicken 🐔 leek & cheese 🧀 pie was extremely dry with the chicken being dry and tough the leeks were burnt and bitter overall again inedible. Now, before the manager decides to offer his/her apologies for our disastrous lunch & that we should have discussed our issues with the staff, I'd ask him/her to consider that the problem started in the kitchen hence this review. Definitely not our best experience in a Green King establishment. I've given the ⭐️⭐️⭐️ that's one more than I'd usually give but the staff made up for the food experience.

Everything was brilliant. Prompt, friendly service. Burger was the best chicken burger I’ve ever had! Gorgeous food. Will definitely be back.

A regular visitor to the black bull when in corbridge, we never knew there was a pretty lil beer garden at the back all this time 😂 food and drinks usually spot on, prices fairly mid-high range, but generally always good service and friendly staff. Can be very busy at weekends so worth booking online for that.

Black Bull has always been a reliable watering hole with a decent reputation for food. Sadly, the food is not what it used to be. The standard and offerings have all gone down, no doubt fuelled by owners Greene King tightening the purse strings and offering less for more. My 2 slices of roast pork were dry, and one was coated with a gloop of gravy. The Yorkshire pudding was flat and chewy, and the accompanying veg portion came straight from the school dinner playbook. See pic. I will not be eating there in the future, but I will pop by for a relaxing drink.

Love this pub. Food is top notch and the service staff are a real good bunch. We take the family once a month and are never disappointed. The Wellington down in riding mill has the same menu but is inferior in service amd food for some reason. The Wellington is not a bad pub...just the bull pulls it off better. Lovely clients, historic building, Sunday runners are sound, recommend the chicken and bacon burger with all the trimmings. Even the bairns do not finish it up....and a nice pint!

Known as the prettiest racecourse, I would agree. We went hospitality for my husband's birthday and the staff couldn't have been more helpful, both leading up to the day and on the day itself. It is a small hospitality compliment, so would suggest booking ahead of time. We were successful from a waiting list. They even put a birthday message in the racecard. Would certainly recommend!

I attended Hexham as an owner for the first time today. Most picturesque track I’ve been at and I loved the grass slopes and the amazing views of the track and the scenery beyond the track. On the downside, I waited in the queue for around 30 minutes for my entry badge, was going to miss my race (the first race). There were still a lot of people ahead of me so I had to brass it and managed to get in without a badge and managed to catch the race. Really not good and I’ve never experienced this at any of the tracks I’ve been to before, and there have been many. I managed to go pick up my badge after the race but if security had been tight I would not have made it in time for my race. Also, the gentleman managing the barrier at the entry to the parade ring physically pushed me back to lower the barrier. Very very disappointing experience and something the track management need to review, specifically the entry process.

Beautiful location, Friendly racecourse staff .Caravan site always immaculate as are toilets and showers. John who runs the site is always extremely helpful and well appreciated by guests.

We had a wonderful day with our family. The weather wasn't the best. Great viewing of the horses. Everything was so easy. Placing bets, food drinks. Great staff. Good direction to get there. We would definitely go again

Great racecourse and views of the track and beyond. Lovely place! Great for free parking entry was quick, cash or card available. Bar service was a little slow especially at the bar other side of the parade ring and the food van was a little overpriced but you seem to find that everywhere when in a venue but that can be the only faults.

Fabulous chilled atmosphere, I was also over the moon to see so many people arrived with their dogs. I wasn't aware that you could bring your dog to the racing. I was very impressed with the amount of vets around to help if any horse had any problems before or after. Happily they were not needed. I enjoyed using my camera for the first time In a long time, building up my confidence again.

Set in beautiful countryside, but prone to gusty winds, but who cares, great experience.

This establishment is noted as dog friendly... This is an understatement! Thoroughly pleased with the service for ourselves and the pampered pooch. The staff were all amazing and very accommodating and the food was amazing!

This restaurant never train or educate their staff for sure. Male Waiter so rude and unfriendly! We booked a table on Sunday night for my Birthday dinner. Waitress (female) she was friendly and warm welcome. Then another waiter (Male) come around asked for drink- we order just a large still water. He give me some ice and I don't want it. No ice please, I said Next time tell me first if you don't want, Waiter said How do I know will you served me ice , you need to asked your customers! I am there for first time! and 2-3 min ago he went back and ask for order but we are not ready yet, so we said give us couple minutes please. Our restaurant closed at 8pm , waiter said We already know that, that is reason why we booked table 6.45pm! Unbelievable! If you are not happy to do your work so go back to sleep! We will never go back to this restaurant again and will not recommend to our friends and family!

Lovely appetizers but service was chaotic with multiple servers, also asking for missing drinks, and the waitress refusing parmesan cheese for pizza, just spent £180 on bills and tight on cheese.. pizza wasn't for me, nice but not for me needed beer well-done, more bread and tomato sauce was missing flavour.. only one draught larger over £6 and pint of coke wasn't a pint but a large glass... We enjoyed it but overall it was not for us... Oh the special cordon blue is very delish, but £22, one off. We also for a large bill got no free shots or comp drinks like other Italians, and .services we go to.

Pre planned stop on my motorcycle tour based a good Google feedback. 👍🏻 attentive staff and manager, busy but efficient and very friendly and helpful, good noticing skills too. I had the pizza which was AMAZING! Thank you 🙏

4 of us went for lunch. We shared 2 starters between the 4 of us. Garlic mushrooms being one. They were so so tasty perfectly cooked with just enough garlic to keep dracular away. They I had a chicken parmo . It's was incredible and we will be returning. Service was ok......... we doing get the full welcoming vibe but we were not offened. I recommend you try this place

Popular Italian restaurant so we booked on a Monday night and just as well we did as pretty full. Beautiful interior, friendly staff and comfy seats. Lovely 3 slice bruschetta which we were pleased we shared then quattro stagionni pizza for me and chicken Kiev pizza for him. Good size and tasty if a little too soggy. Fabulous stringy cheese that went everywhere! Not too keen on the ham on mine tho

Very good food. Friendly and helpful service. Good atmosphere. Although strange choice of music for an Italian restaurant 🤔

The food was delicious! And the service was wonderful. At first we were reluctant to pay extra for vegan cheese (massive pet hate of ours when you're charged extra for vegan products, or if you have the dairy products removed and they charge you the same), however, the extra £2 for the vegan cheese was well worth it after the owner came and spoke to us and explained that it's homemade with a special recipe. Honestly one of the best vegan cheeses we've had. He could easily make a business making this alone! We had the vegan nachos to share for a starter, then a quesadilla and burrito. Very tasty and I love how they ask your required spice level. The staff were friendly and attentive. The owner was incredibly helpful and I loved his passion for his food. 100% recommend and I can't wait to return!!!

Visited here today with my mam as we were on a day trip to Hexham, and it was absolutely outstanding. From the moment we walked in the door, the service was welcoming, and we knew that the food was going to be good. We both ordered naked burritos, with my mam ordering the fajita chicken and me getting the beef brisket, and the portion sizes were just right. I also ordered the horchata as I had heard many good things, and rightly so, because it was delicious. Overall, a 5 star experience from start to finish, and somewhere that I would come back to Hexham for just to have the food again.

Outstanding dishes, decor and experience at this brilliant independent restaurant. This wonderful place would be a jewel in the crown of any city in the world; Hexham is incredibly lucky to have it, spicing up its night life and town centre. After a terrifically tasty burrito, I selfishly ordered their Tuesday Taco offer. I simply couldn’t get enough! Thank you and congratulations on your wonderful restaurant.

If you want authentic, great Mexican food this is the real deal! Fantastic home made and fresh!! Great juices and wonderful hot chocolate made from cocoa grown by the owner! Kids loved it and so did we! Wish we had this place in Leeds. A gem of a place!

Great find whilst on holiday. Super friendly staff and brilliant service. Lovely food and drinks and so helpful we tried and tested all their chocolate samples and took some home. So good we have booked a table for tomorrow.

This is one of those places that doesn't look like much from the outside, but as soon as you walk in you would swear you're in Mexico. The smells, music, people, and general vibe are great, and the food is easily the best Mexican food we've had. It tastes so authentic, down to the flavour of the maize flour they use, but is a tiny bit expensive, e.g. £2 for a 30ml(ish) tub of guacamole. The churros are a MUST. Honestly, just trust me and order them, you won't be sorry!

We were only in town for the day so popped in for lunch having seen the award winning notice on the restaurant window. Food was very good and the staff are really enthusiastic about there product, the young lad making up the food was really helpful with advice on what was available, heat levels and even showed us how the nacho/tortilla machine worked as they make them from scratch on site. Wish you were nearer to where we live.

Great dog friendly pub in the center of Corbridge. Large sunny beer garden out back. Great value Sunday lunch, £12.50, which included cauliflower cheese & pigs in blankets perfectly cooked meats. Service was perfect and quick.

Nice pint of Guinness in the beer garden on a warm sunny day. We had two meals ,both were really nice and the staff were great. Very welcoming and a good service. Hopefully the weather is just as good next time we visit.

Brilliant pub especially if you have a dog with you. Really nice atmosphere. Everyone so friendly and welcoming, especially the young lady who served me, offered to fetch bowl of water for my dog and also brought a handful of treats for her! Was only looking for a snack and had been turned away by 2 cafes in Corbridge because of the dog. So glad they did! The food was lovely, I had a jacket potato which was perfect and with a really good fresh salad with a lovely dressing. Happy dog, very happy owner!

Great pub with lovely food. Quick service but not so quick that you feel they just want the table for the next customer. Food was of a good standard with adequate portion size and was priced well.

Had a Sunday dinner here about a year ago and it was nice. Went this week and the chicken curry and rice was terrible. The chips were also burnt and the only saving grace was that the portion sizes were very small. The atmosphere was also terrible as all that was playing on the TV screens was Who wants to be a millionaire - I think from the 80s with Chris Tarrant!!! Sorry, will not be back.

Collected 2 Sunday Lunch’s as gift for in laws on Father’s Day. Short wait for the order but staff kept me updated. Dinners (pork) were delicious, hot and plentiful (in fact they struggled to eat it all) Really good value too.

Your quintessential friendly local pub. Good basic food. We had lunch while passing through, but it’s the kind of place to spend a few evening hours while consuming a few pints.

We did not booked and arrived 19:00 for a table for two. Lovely meal and staff very pleasant. However, the resteraunt is rather dark inside. Staircase too and from toilet is rather steep.... we felt we were rushed from our table.

Very good value, 2 course lunch £19. All of thd food was delicious. The lady who served us was friendly and polite.. Definitely worth a visit.

Danielle's Bistro - the kind of place you think about telling everyone, but secretly want to keep for yourself. My favourites are firmly established: honey-roasted beetroot with feta to start and cheesecake to finish (because why change perfection?) In between, the sea bass with prawns was a reminder that some kitchens don't just cook, they care. A bistro where routines become rituals and where returning feels less like repetition and more like reward ❤️

This is a lovely find in Hexham. It is an 'old fashioned' bistro serving beautifully cooked and prepared meals. The decor was quaint in a way but perfectly suited the feel of the place. The proprietor was welcoming, his staff friendly and their attention to detail first class. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was melt in the mouth.

Called in here after rhe races on the off chance they had a table and luckily they squeezed us in as we were early. It got really busy so would reccomend booking. Really good value fixed price menus good choice and a good wine selection too.

Danielle's is the perfect place for a cozy, suitably priced, and delicious meal for anyone looking for both filling and delicious portions. The menu offers a wide selection of pub/bistro classics, slightly fancier dishes and some knockout signatures, all for a comfortable price and all executed to near-perfection. You can tell that whoever designed the menu has a real understanding and appreciation for flavour combinations and textures, as well as the kitchen being able to cook them wonderfully. The drinks menu is great, with a good selection of soft and hard beverages that can accompany your meal, ask any of the very helpful, smiley and professional staff for help with drinks or anything really! The (I presume weekly or daily) blackboard dessert specials are brilliant too with dishes such as truly, melt in your mouth sticky toffee pudding or a healthy selection of ice cream and sorbet flavours. The setting and serving was brilliant with a nice wait time before the meal arrived, and a wonderful calming ambient hub-bub of chatter and music. I also noticed that they cater to the younger ones among us too and didn't see any issues with them serving kids as young as 3/4! Currently their coronavirus measures are excellent and appropriate, with face screens, disinfectants and social distancing.

So friendly and good value. The cheese souffle is gorgeous also the desserts, such as the cheesecake and the brandy basket Attractive place too.

Had a fantastic experience at Go Ape Matfen with my daughter! 13/07/2025 @ 14:00 From the moment we arrived, the instructors were friendly, welcoming, and professional, setting a great tone for the whole day. The session kicked off with a clear 30-minute safety briefing, followed by around 2.5 hours on the course itself – a perfect length to really enjoy the adventure without feeling rushed. The course is well-maintained and offers a good mix of challenges and fun. There were plenty of water stations along the way which were much appreciated, and free car parking on-site was a great bonus. They also offer a secure key storage system — you’re given a wristband with a number so you can easily retrieve your keys at the end. At one point, my daughter got a bit stuck on the Tarzan swing, but the staff were quick to respond and so reassuring, helping her get back on track and continue enjoying the experience with confidence. This place is well-organised, safe, and lots of fun — I’d absolutely recommend Go Ape Matfen to families looking for a bit of adventure in a beautiful woodland setting. We’ll definitely be back!

Axe throwing activity was just the best fun. Sarah, our instructor was so friendly, funny, and helpful. We did all 3 throws (right, left handed and two handed) and even managed to hit the board a few times. The games are fun and you can take photos of your achievements! Wear layers for the weather, we had a bit of light rain and needed coats, footwear - trainers/boots you don't mind getting a little muddy. Certificate and sticker awarded at the end if you don't want to get the medals package...we did, its got pride of place at home 😂

A great time for all ages! Our instructor Sarah was lovely. Even though it did start raining whilst we were on the course that didn't take away from the experience at all. All safety procedures were explained thoroughly and once you're on the course you can take it at your own pace! All in all a great day out.

My son and I had a fantastic time at Go Ape Matfen yesterday! Our instructor, Grace was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Thank you! I really liked that the course was split into sections, meaning that you were able to have your feet back on solid ground in between the challenging sections. This also meant longer zip wires!

Had a great experience today and one of the staff who I think was called heather “Hev :)” wrote on the card was so patient with my partner and really helped her get through the first part. She regularly checked on us as we were so far behind everyone else.

Had the best day ever at Go Ape. Very friendly staff taught us how to use the equipment then we were off! Laughed so much along the way. Highly recommend!

Probably one of the scariest experiences of my life, but I feel great now I've done it! It was completely outside my comfort zone, would I do it again, very likely. Thank you so much to Megan for supporting me and ensuring I got around the course. I would definitely recommend it

Very disappointed in this site, expected more. The journey we had was not the best, terrible road called the military road, a single track. We travelled from Ashington in Northumberland, 57 minutes, took no more than 30 minutes to visit the site.

Ayden is a restored castle owned by English Heritage. Hugh De Reymes around 1293 began with a hall, then built a fort; good job as he and his son..had a turbulent history with war with the Scottish. One of the best orthentic castles I've been to, very detailed. Good for families & picnic tables. There is a dress up box in the castle. Ayden castle is about a mile down a lane off road( bumpy). The care park 200yds from the entrance, non members have to pay. There is a disabled parking outside entrance. Overall, wheelchair friendly. A couple of entrances has a couple of steps. There is s shop. Had a very relaxing couple of hours.

A hidden gem ... We reached Aydon Castle after a few minutes on a very small and narrow road (so be prepared) but it was worth it. The castle has a green courtyard with lots of grass for kids to play and on the side is a lovely orchard (great for picnics). There are some dotted picnic tables around too. Interesting visit inside the castle ... My kids really enjoyed it. Visit finished with ice creams from the English Heritage shop. ❤️ ps. There is an entry fee but we used our EH ticket so free.

A little castle in the beautiful countryside. Small entrance / gift shop with a very informative and helpful staff member. There are plenty of information boards inside and layouts of the rooms. We spent 30-40 minutes here. Free parking for english heritage members, small charge otherwise.

Beautiful castle! Very unexpected indeed! Upon entering, it looked to be quite underwhelming and small but actually, unlike many of the other castles we've visited, the floors have been restored and so when exploring it actually feels like you're stepping back in time and seeing the castle in its once before glory! Staff were beyond friendly & helpful, informative and welcoming. This is probably one of my favourite castles with lovely grounds for children to run around in and benches for resting and plenty of picnic places with a beautiful forestry walk going around the back of the castle. Very reasonably priced too, for what's on offer to see. 10/10 - would highly recommend!

Really enjoyed this 13th century English manor house. It was a working farm up until a year or so ago, or a few yrs (can't remember what they told us). There are quite a few things to see here. There is a small orchard, and a trail that goes around the manor house. There might have been some longer trails too, but don't remember as we stayed to tour. What we enjoyed ourselves was trying to figure out what rooms were used for, the most interesting one being what ended up being the stalls (which I totally called since it was 'indoors' we didn't think it could be that). Another thing that you typically do not see in ruins (though this place is well preserved) is an area in which the floor beams are intact and you can actually see what a 'typical' room height was - this place has it! Usually when ruins have multiple floors available, their more overlooking grand areas that either had higher ceilings, or the floor is missing over the area you're looking down in. Being to quite a few ruins now and knowing what you're looking at is spectacular. Don't necessarily wish to have been present during that time, but would love to see it back in its glory! The staff here are lovely and we quite enjoyed the gift shop. Coffee was eh, but at least it was a cuppa!

Loved it. Wasn't sure what, or how much, to expect, but there's plenty here for an hours exploring, reading and sitting. English Heritage , so free to members. About £7/£8 if not. Suggested carpark donation of £3. Plenty of space to park - camper etc. Little EH shop, machine coffee. Art installations inside - okay, not our thing really, but much more to see than we'd expected. Lovely EH guide/receptionist.

Excellent cafe set over 2 floors. Waitress service with a good range of foods and drinks-( also licensed if you fancy a tipple) with toilets upstairs. I had carrot and lentil soup with a cheese scone which was delicious. He enjoyed a tuna mayonnaise sarnie with some lovely little salads and a lemon slice. 2 pots of tea brought bill to around £23. Very popular, very friendly and very good 👍

Came here as part of a trip for my girlfriend’s birthday, we couldn’t be happier with everything! The food and service were perfect, the staff were so friendly and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend!

Great little cafe in Corbridge centre! It was such a shame to see it so empty in comparison to some of the other cafes in town. Lovely service and nice hearty food... The menu was somewhat limited with no "cooked food" options after breakfast. Mainly sandwiches and jacket potatoes but I was pleasantly surprised by the seasonal quiche they had on - Asparagus & bacon. Served with a nice selection of side salads. We were even tempted by their cake selection and finished off with some sweet treats! Would definitely recommend but not if you are looking for more substantial cooked food options.

Maybe the best place we jave visited this trip.

Nice little coffee shop in Corbridge with friendly staff and a very relaxed atmosphere. The food is a definite notch above your average café. Pro tip: it's not large, so if you want to make sure of a table then I'd definitely make a reservation...

A welcoming cute little coffee house, nice lunch, great atmosphere. Parking outside is free for 30 minutes but you must still take a parking ticket from the machine.

Lovely coffee stop. Service with a smile and a chat. Scones the best I have had in a long, long time. Very reasonable prices as well

Limited gluten free options. That being said the server was so wonderful, very thorough and double checked what was coeliac safe for me to eat - was impressed by her hospitality, sadly don’t know her name. The soup was absolutely delicious - perfect for a cold day! Really enjoyed the tea too, we both had the CBD green mint tea. The selection of tea was impressive, and the portions were generous! All in all, enjoyed our experience here.

We visited today for lunch, great we were able to take the dogs in. Fantastic choice for lunch. Hot Beef sandwich, fish platter and the breakfast. Great that they catered for Gluten intolerance and we only wished we had space for a cake. May be another visit is required

They serve breakfast all day!!! What a fantastic little place for a quick bite. Its hands down the best breakfast I've had. High quality ingredients prepared with love and care. It's also great value for money. All the staff were welcoming and accommodating. I will 100% be coming back and trying a lot more than their breakfast next time I'm in Corbridge.

We’ve had both breakfast and lunch here and it’s always been good. Staff are friendly but they do get busy and a bit under pressure. The ploughman’s was super so was the fish plate. At breakfast we had the full English and it’s really good - not too huge but decent portion. The deli downstairs also has a lot of nice stuff much of it local Definitely worth a visit

The best cafe in Corbridge. The food is DELICIOUS, great sandwiches, jackets and a top notch sausage and egg sandwich. Service is always excellent, even when it’s busy. I love that they use the condiments that they sell downstairs, highly recommend the chilli jam they use on the avocado toast. Consistently 10/10 and it’s always an essential trip we look forward to when we’re visiting family.

Great selection of healthy but filling snacks and meals, the food was great I really enjoyed it, I am coeliac and they looked after me with lots of options. It's dog friendly as well.Loads of space and not cramped at all Top marks all round, well satisfied, thank you I'll be back 😊

We visited Corbridge on a whim this weekend and after a walk around we dropped in here for a coffee and maybe some food. We walked upstairs and found a table (it’s dog friendly which is great). The staff upstairs don’t meet the expectation of the place. All friendly and polite, but there’s no management in the cafe, which means everyone is just standing around and lacking in confidence. I actually had to put them right with our bill, which was originally was quoted as lower than it should have been by over 50%. We ordered some coffees and a bacon/sausage sarnie each. The coffee was really nice but the sarnies were that dry that even the dog struggled to eat it. They’re also trying to cram in too many covers upstairs! There’s not the space for people to sit comfortably without being knocked constantly. It’s just a shame that the attention to detail from downstairs hasn’t made it upstairs to the cafe.

This was our first visit and we were really impressed. The staff were all very good, friendly and efficient. We arrived without a reservation and a dog, the staff did all that they could to help us, going out of their way to find us a table. The food was served with generous portions and delicious! We will definitely return to sample more of their tasty food.

Visit was for Sunday Lunch. From beginning to end we were made very welcome and cannot fault the service. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday lunch, between us having beef and pork roasts. Very generous and tasty helpings but one of us still managed to tackle the crumble and custard (with 2 spoons!) which was delicious We will definitely be back.

10/10 experience. Outstanding customer service and one of the warmest welcomes I have had. We were walking Hadrian's wall and stayed here, the room, food and beers were all excellent. A wonderful pub that is doing everything right.

I have dined at the Golden Lion 3 times now, absolutely wonderful food. To give people a clue just how good, it's 145 miles from our house. The staff are brilliant and really friendly, I haven't stayed there but have been shown the rooms and they're really nice

Delicious Sunday Lunch in one of our favourite places to eat and drink. As is family ran, we get such a personable welcome and service. I have a fish allergy and they go that extra mile to cater for this, even sourcing vegan wine I am able to drink. They are so supportive of the young autistic man we support, offering a quieter location for us to sit when it is busy or he is overwhelmed. I love autumn and winter early evenings, being cosy by the stove when it is a real haven for us to unwind. We are so lucky to call it our 'local', and are aware that The Golden Lion has now established a very high reputation locally in the village of Corbridge and surrounding area, and is a favourite of tourists who enjoy staying here.

We didn’t stay but we ate here twice and popped in for a drink a couple of times too. I have to say it’s a classic example of a proper family run pub. Good beer selection (including a great gluten free option) surprisingly good wine selection. The menu is classic pub food but they deliver it so well it’s best in breed. The burger and the fish and chips were both amazing and Claudia thinks the chicken Caesar is one of the best she has had anywhere in the world. Highly recommended

Had dinner here on a Monday night. Not many restaurants open on Mondays nowadays so it was quite busy. Well-prepared food from a varied menu. Staff looked after us very well.
