“ Found this place while on holiday and it is the best place on the front for coffee and cake. Every time we return we are greeted like old friends. So kind and welcoming all the staff work well under high pressures on sunny (busy) days. Can't wait to go again ”
“ Very friendly and pleasant staff on today’s visit. Lovely cappuccino and cheese scone. ”
“ Great art deco cafe, love this place. ”
“ Popped in for a cuppa, bought jacket potato and cake too! Lovely 1920's feel inside, great choice and price, friendly staff, fab ”
“ Cakes and Ice creams are devine but a pannini I had once was not nice as not cooked enough and wrong cheese used. Yet to try New fish and chip shop opened by this place but hours are not as often as Main chip shops. ”
“ The Cafe that time forgot, has been refurbished but keeping that original 1930's theme. Subtle pictures upon the walls brought my wife to tears as the memories flooded back of trips here with her grandmother. Several years ago I would have said that this on outdated cafe but now its a wonderful trip back in time with even a traditional door chime as you walk inside. Good to see the cafe still in the family and Frank Bertorelli 4th generation even stopped to chat. I have never seen it so busy and hope it continues. ”
“ Huge bacon sandwich for me, similar sausage for other. Combined with delicious coffee. Sat outside in the sun. Can't beat it. 12. Lady serving was very pleasant and helpful. Would highly recommend. Thank you. ”
“ Set in a quiet seaside town where visitors and locals alike come to mix. With a gorgeous beach and the North Sea as a backdrop, as well as 'The Couple', it's a great place to be to while away some hours and relaxing. It's been ages since these guys could open, but as soon as they did we've been back for the usual 1st class coffee, cakes, sandwiches and typical Northumbrian welcome. We've missed you! Welcome back!!! ”
