Restaurants near Chillingham Castle

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to The Jolly Fisherman. A delicious crab soup for starters followed by fish pie. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We have visited before and made a return booking whilst staying in Northumberland.

Today was beautiful, the food the atmosphere and service. Mark who looked after us today is the most professional, helpful and friendly gentleman. He was so attentive and polite we thought he was wonderful. Mark really makes you feel taken care of and comfortable. Such an asset to a beautiful experience. Joanna and friends

We had a really nice meal, served by a wonderful host. It was a shame we were the only people in for a while, added to during the meal as a few came to the bar for a pint or two, so ambiance a little lacking. Timing, we guess, as it was a late lunch. Won’t put us off going back as it’s always welcoming and food never disappoints so either later this holiday or next time we’re up, for sure.

Really well worth a visit. Staff were very good and attentive. Everywhere was clean and comfortable. We chose just main and dessert. Steak for main, mine was slightly chewy but husbands was spot on so must have been the cut. I had ice cream which was delicious and husband had cheese & biscuits so we could share. Perfect evening and perfect wines. Booked in again for tomorrow night as we are staying in the cottage right next door, which is also excellent 🤩

Scallops with black pudding were so good last time, both of my sisters had it this time as well as me - still as amazingly awesome as before!! Brother in law (who's birthday treat it was) had the gravadlax and reckoned it was excellent. One sister shared the Fish Platter with me - it was amazing, mussel broth was delicious and lobster and crab claws were really good too. The only downside was it was sooo huge we didn't get close to finishing it!! It would definitely do three easily - lesson learned for next time! We would have loved to try puddings but we were all so full by that time we had to pass :-( Also really enjoyed the Albarino - I have been drinking the Portuguese one but the NZ one was really good too. A lovely evening with excellent service and good food and company - Thank you very much and hope to see you again soon!
