We pre-booked a table approx 45mins prior to arriving and there was plenty of availability and so we expected it to be quiet and probably lacking in atmosphere, how wrong we were. The restaurant was very busy and the atmosphere was warmly welcoming and pleasant. The table was dressed formerly yet it felt comfortable and not stuffy. We ordered from the lunch menu and all three of us decided to have the fish and chips, WOW! We can honestly say these are in our top 5 of all fish and chips that we've eaten. Beautifully cooked fish in a light, crispy and non greasy batter, served with homemade hugely chunky chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce. We also ordered from the doggy menu a portion of sausage, mash and peas which he devoured. A fab portion and not a drop left for him, it was lovely to see a dedicated doggy menu and quite the novelty. Service from everyone was superb and we will 100% return and recommend. Great job from all for a fabulous lunch.
A very nice pub but we felt the food was expensive for what we got. Also the menu is very limited.
Amazing food and staff are brilliant! Second time visiting and will we definitely become regular visitors
Amazing food and wonderful staff very friendly and attentive, thank you
Amazing food, drinks and totally dog friendly! Thanks so much
Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.
Nice English traditional food, staff very friendly . Lovely interior very clean. Cosy atmosphere.
We were a party of six and everyone’s food was first class, great service and lovely atmosphere. Thank you
We are frequent customers at The Northumberland Arms- always very polite quick and professional service, always superb quality food and a lovely restaurant/pub.. We always recommend to our friends and we bring friends and family here for meals. We live in the area where there are many choices but we come back time and time again and the comments I had made never change. Bravo and Many thanks to your team.
Disappointed with menu overall, thought it would have been Al a Carte
There was no Sunday menu although I called to ask days before and told there would be, stayed as was new years eve and to book a table somewhere so late would have been a nightmare, when the food arrived it was cold and not the normal high quality.
Very good food as usual and staff excellent 👍 .
Very friendly staff... lovely relaxed ambience... Great food. TNA never disappoints.
Visited on 27th Dec during our Christmas break in the area. Had a very good welcome and although the evening menu was limited, it offered a good choice. The main course portions were good however, we found the desserts a little pricey. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. Overall we had a good meal and would return but we may not choose a dessert if prices remain high.
Fantastic food and brilliant service, couldn't fault a thing. Ambiance was lovely and we all had a great afternoon, will definitely be back.
Very good experience with good food and pleasant staff serving.
Booking was easy and confirmation close to the date was reassuring. Beautiful venue, very friendly, professional staff. Orders were served quickly. Good selection. Great portion size, well presented.
More vegetarian options and vegetable accompaniments other than chips would be good.
One of the best dining experiences I’ve had. Food sublime and our waitress, I think she was called Carol, was amazing. Highly recommend Thank you.
Very disappointed Steaks were very tough. Service was really good though
Our pre-Christmas family lunch was a great experience and we will definitely be back. Even though our party included a very large dog and a very small baby, we were made to feel extremely welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
Big shout out to Karen her service was fantastic, great asset
Food was homecooked and of high standard. Servcie was excellent too. We really enjoyed it.
great christmas decorations, great christmas menu, food was tasty and hot, just the clearing of the plates was a little slow especially as the young man came in a looked at the other table 3 times and didn't look at us just walked out empty handed. Otherwise perfect.
Great food and service - but a little bit disappointed to be stuck in the hallway outside the ladies toilet and with a very low sofa to sit on for 2 diners instead of chairs
Lovely pub with friendly, efficient staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Our meals were delicious..we will be back!
Best Sunday lunch by far!! Delicious food. All the staff were tip top, very welcoming & helpful. Can’t wait to return!
I booked this as a surprise birthday meal for my wife and we took our daughter who lives locally. Our Springer 'Moss' was allowed in under the table and the table waitress, called Karen was lovely. She was very attentive without being too much, and at the end of the meal Karen brought my wife's dessert with a birthday candle upon it and even started off the singing of 'happy birthday'. We have been there twice before in other years, but this occasion was by far the best. The meals were of good quality and very enjoyable. A really pleasant experience :)
Excellent meal and friendly staff , will definitely return soon
Great food and lovely staff They made my husband's birthday special.
4 of us, work colleagues came at 5.30pm for Xmas meal. Absolutely delicious! Service with a smile too 👍good value for money. Thank you for a fab experience.
Always have a fantastic time at the Northumberland Arms. Great food, awesome service and atmosphere, highly recommend!
Choice for vegetarians is very limited. An alcohol free wine option would be good too
We sat in the conservatory which was very pleasant. The food was amazing and we appreciated the crackers too.
Sunday lunch was again, as always perfect. Every item was a quality product, cooked to perfection. The atmosphere and decor beautiful and cosy. Staff friendly and professional.
We had a loud obnoxious chap at the next table, everything else was good
We booked a meal at 6.00 pm on Saturday 9th December 2023. We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The food and drink was exceptional, and every staff member was unbelievably helpful and friendly. Without doubt this was the best dining out experience that we have experienced for a long time.
Food was divine, atmosphere very enjoyable and very relaxing. The service was out of this world. Can't wait to go back.
Our second visit this afternoon to the Northumberland Arms was just what we needed after a long walk in the cold weather. Cosy atmosphere, wholesome food and lovely staff. Can’t wait to return.
Service and food top notch thouraly enjoyed our lunch. Thank you!!!
Had a lovely evening, special mention for Karen who looked after us superbly.
This pub is simply a gorgeous place to eat and drink. Warm and cosy, with attention to every detail. They even have a menu for dogs which are very welcome in the bar.
Booked a table for five plus two dogs, but unfortunately due to the weather one of our party couldn't make it. We all really enjoyed our meals, the staff were really friendly and they even have a doggy menu! I couldn't fault a single thing, it was a real pleasure.
Great food. Friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Reasonable prices for lunchtime.
Another lively meal at the Northumberland Arms. The lamb I had was very tasty and the Yorkshire Pudding was immense.
Not impressed with the Sunday lunch asked for roast beef it was tough and the veg was hard. Pork belly was poor, tiny amount on plate.
Really friendly staff Food and drinks were lovely and good atmosphere
Lovely menu to choose from, well worth a visit cheers
All round a great experience, well worth a visit. If we were staying longer we would go again.
Fantastic food and service. We all really enjoyed our evening and will return next time we are in the area.
Went for a lunch with old school friends. Have not been for several years. On a coldish winters day we were seated next to the log burner which was nice and kept us warm! The service was attentive and sympathetic throughout. We ate from the lunchtime menu which offered enough variety for our needs. The batter on the fish and chips was the best I have tasted in many a year. The food and the attention to detail was superb and next time we have lunch out, it would be our pleasure to return.
