Bertram's - Northumberland

I absolutely love the atmosphere of this café. The staff are all fantastic. I ordered a coffee and scone, and while the scone was delicious, the coffee was disappointing. The black Americano had no crema and lacked flavor. They could use some improvement in their espresso brewing skills. Despite this, I will still give them another chance and come back in the future.

Exceptional cafe. Wonderful home cooked food and cakes. Dog friendly which is great. Really tasty Christmas specials!

Stunning fire by the Christmas tree, efficient service and wonderful breakfast food and tea. Quite a varied menu however, dog friendly and beautifully warm and welcoming.

Excellent service really efficient. Food delicious try the Craster kippers. Be warned it’s very popular and we had to wait but it is worth it.

Met a friend here for lunch. It was our first time; our friend knew it well. I liked the fact that they had a breakfast menu, a lunch menu, and then a section which was breakfasty food that gets served all day perfect. Our orders were a soup of the day, a bacon sandwich and the avocado with egg, bacon etc on toast. Comments on soup, and bacon sandwich were totally delicious. However, when my avocado came, it was very oxidised and grey. I wondered whether to send it back as I don't like complaining, but I decided that I would. They justified it by saying it all gets smashed at the start of the day then gets piped onto the toast... however, they happily took it back and ten or so minutes later, a whole fresh meal came out and it was totally perfect. I'm so glad I said something as there was no comparison to the first plate. Well done for re cooking everything for me, top quality second time round. very relaxed place, no bookings, but plenty of space to wait. Dog friendly too.
