Excellent food and service. Nothing was any bother even when we asked for a change to the menu. What a lovely place. Will definitely be back. Well done to all the staff.

My family has eaten here a few times, and the service has been extremely friendly. The food was delicious we've had Sunday lunch and their parmos were delicious ?

Nothing special if I'm honest. Food was ok a little pricey if anything for what I received as my meal was especially nice just very average. My first time being there and I'm unlikely to ever return. Service was slow and it's not like the place was particularly busy. Staff were friendly however.

This was our 1st visit to the Duke Of Cleveland. We stopped In for a bite to eat and a hot drink to warm up after our bitterly cold winter walk. The service was less than delightful with a waitress that had a terrible attitude on her and anything we asked for seemed like she had to go out of her way and beyond to complete our request. We all had a hot chocolate, which left us less than impressed as it tasted more like hot water with a hint of cocoa. When asked if she could bring us some extra sugar, we were grunted at with a "you've already got sugar" response as she pointed to the table (we had 1 sachet) We then asked if we could possibly have some extra milk (to make the hot chocolate a little more palatable) 4 Hours later we are still waiting for said milk. Food was ordered, and aprox 50 minutes later we were still waiting for 3 bowls of chips and a pizza. When enquired about how much longer the food was going to take as it was closely reaching the hour mark since we had ordered, the waitress snapped heavily with a response of... "No it hasn't! " ? I felt like I was having my head bit off by a grumpy teenager. The food did follow shortly after, which was tasty and hot if i am to be honest. By this time we all felt we'de had our throats cut as our stomach's grumbled with hunger. When getting ready to leave, I left my partner to deal with the pleasure of approaching said waitress and her charming demeanour to finalise our bill. I think our only pleasurable experience of our visit was the warm fire that roasted the room up and our cold little bodies. Needless to say, we will not be returning for a second visit.

We met here for a quiet business lunch. Good food, wide range of options. Staff helpful and attentive. Roaring fire on a cold day. Two minutes from the coast.

Great place to have a few drinks with family. Bonus it is dog friendly! We went last week with 3 dogs, 9 adults, 2 young people and 2 children after a walk and staff were friendly, accommodated us in one area, on the spur of the moment, and we had hot and cold drinks, all at reasonable prices. Other people were eating there and the food looked and smelt good. We would definitely recommend and go back there.

A big thankyou to the Duke of Cleveland staff who made our Christmas day lunch special, great food, great service and most importantly unrushed.

Called in for a Sunday dinner , there where a few available tables, over all it was a present experience, but and there is a but , we ordered the beef for our Sunday lunch and on the menu it states Cooked to your liking , so we asked for rare , we got tough as old boots beef , why put that on the menu and serve tuff as old boots beef , doesn't the chef try it before serving the beef ,disappointed to be honest, I've heard good things about this place

Came here for a 50th & pre ordered good to make it easy. When everyone was eventually served my meal & one other were missing. The sigh and eye roll from the bloke serving when I said I had not got my food did not go unnoticed. I waited patiently until my food was cooked (by which point everyone else had finished) I must say that when it came, the fish was exceptional but the lack of apology and the fact that I then had to pay the full amount seemed a little unfair to me. Mistakes happen but it's how you deal with them - rolling your eyes (like it was my fault!), forgetting to apologise and not even offering a free drink whilst I patiently waited - pretty poor tbh
