Best KPortal Reviews
Best meal we've had in ages. Brilliant with my mum who has coeliac so can't have gluten but also doesn't eat dairy or sugar. Nothing was too much trouble. The mussels, risotto and chowder were all top notch and the pavlova was amazing. Thanks so much
Stopped for a cup of tea and a sandwich and it was fantastic. Very friendly staff and right across from the small but beautiful church.
Can highly recommend the tuna melt which I had, and my partner had the BLT which looked equally good.
Would definitely come back here if I was in the area!
Had the best evening at the Saltwater cafe. Chef Chico is an amazing cook and his coworker Ann is hilariously entertaining. Great atmosphere with the best seafood linguine and excellent hospitality. Would highly recommend. Hugely dog friendly too. Thanks so much!
Had a lovely breakfast here, pancakes were to die for, plently of syrup too, were very busy when we visited (11am Sunday) but all staff were very polite and did everything they could for us, can taste they they use really good quality fresh ingredients, full English was fabulous too
Had lovely filling breakfasts here. 4 different meals. All superb. Excellent service. Loved the decor and unusual mirrors. Highly recommend.
We went to this place at lunch time as a cafe which was rather average to be honest. However we decided to return for the evening menu as a bistro, we were very pleased with the food and the service. The mains were lovely, we ordered the stone bass risotto, the stone bass was chunky fresh fish, which just melted in your mouth. And the seafood platter was a range of gorgeous, fresh fish. We managed to squeeze in a dessert, the chocolate orange brownie was amazing and huge! I had to take some of it away. Overall a lovely experience, would highly recommend a visit on an evening.
Note: the following review is based on the lunch menu. Not breakfast or evening meals.
Nice food with an OK presentation. I do think the reviews have overrated this Cafe. Their lunch menu is based on what essentially are sandwiches with a garnish. At £9 per sandwich it is high end of the spectrum. I would want a very special sandwich for that price, something different. This is not the case here. Although the sandwiches are OK, nothing special about them and in particular for that price. The Mayonnaise is heavy on every plate and so is the dressing on the garnish. Coffe is normal as well as their cakes. We had the lemon and poppy seed cake and again nothing to rave about. Staff and no issues there. Did feel the place was a bit sloppy and not so professional. Still nothing else in the area like this and for that reason it gets the 3 ???? . If it was in a place with a lot of competition it would only get 2 ????. Sorry guys but the prices are too high. You are a cafeteria after all. Your dish of the day priced at £38 is way way too steep for you guys. Michelin listed restaurants like the one in Bamburgh has dishes cheaper than yours...
Outstanding.
We had a cream tea booked here and it was perfect in every way. Have a look at the photos and you will see what I mean.
You can pretty much judge a quality by availability. It's really hard to get a table.
If you are in the area then try.
Limited parking so I'd suggest parking 100m down the road and walking to the venue. Not worth trying to park nearer and the extra traffic just ruins the area which is beautiful.
