Restaurants in Middlesbrough

Turtle Bay Middlesbrough

Came for a few cocktails and the service was really good, the lady on the bar was very knowledgeable about the different cocktails! The decor was super fun yet cosy with all the twinkly lights ✨️

Macro Based Diner

Been using macro based diet for years
Over the past 3 weeks the food has gone to another level. Definitely the best meal prep in Teesside and I’ve tried them all.

The Southfield

We love the Southfield our go to place for bottomless brunch. Today Callum looked after us even though it was super busy and we chose to sit outside he still made sure we were well looked after and had a great time. Best bottomless brunch in boro!

The Dovecot

I attended a private party in the function room upstairs, which was a nice space. The food was nice, most of the staff were great (one of them started throwing empty bottles around before leaving abruptly), didn't spend any time in the main bar areas but most people seemed to be having a good time listening to the live music.

Sandstone Nab

went for dinner today and the food was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. The katsu chicken burger was beautifully cooked and very tasty, followed it with sherry trifle cheesecake which was so moreish definitely be visiting again 5 ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐

V-EDGE

My husband and I aren't actually vegan (I'm veggie) but we absolutely LOVE vegan food (especially the not-so-healthy kind). We've been to a lot of vegan restaurants all over the country (even in Europe) but V-Edge is by far the best we've ever had. Honestly their food is so good and it's now my top choice for when we eat out in the future. It's also super funky inside & the girl who served us was so friendly. If you haven't been yet, you need to!!

Creams Cafe Middlesbrough

Lovely visit to Creams Middlesbrough today with friends to have a catch up!
Got a Croissant-wich and was able to change my gelato flavour to coffee ^_^
Already planning to come back with another friend in a couple of days.
Lovely atmosphere and staff :)

Yum Yum Desserts

Excellent triple smash burger, the doughnuts were lovely aswell. Wait wasn't too bad either

Parking: Did have to park in a dark parking space near the dundas, where cracky chan and crackerella were. But overall all good

Umi Japanese Bar and Restaurant

This is a very serene environment, family friendly. The food is delicious, I didn’t quite enjoy my Sushi but the other meals I ate was tasty. I will definitely go back

Rio Brazilian Steakhouse - Middlesbrough

Been wanting to try Rio for a while and finally got to go last night. Wow. Just wow. Amazing service, very attentive staff. Serving staff were all lovely. The guys were always going around with meat. It was really quite busy but they still got round to you often. I don't think you could even call the salad bar an actual salad bar, there was all sorts of things to choose from! We didn't get that much as we wanted to concentrate on the meat. Couple of cuts were slightly tough but the majority were absolutely stunning. Beautiful flavour and texture. You could have as much or as little as whatever meat you wanted. We did not have room but the desserts were too tempting! They were also delicious. Cocktails were good also, lots of choice! The price is very reasonable for what you get too. Don't get me wrong it's an expensive night out, but for what it is it's really not bad at all. 40 each for the meats, chips and salad bar on a Saturday night, you can pay that just for one steak dish! We spent a total of 160 odd with service charge for 2 people. But that was for the meat experience, two cocktails each, dessert and coffee each. As a rule I don't like it when restaurants add on a service charge, I think tips should be decided by the customer, however, I did like that the service staff asked if it was okay to leave the service charge on. All in all whilst it's not something many people could afford on the regular it is definitely a worth while experience and we'll definitely be back when we're wanting a nicer meal!

Lingfield Farm

Really enjoyed the evening with family

Food was great

The staff where friendly polite

Pub was clean and tidy

The Massala

Really good and authentic Indian restaurant.
I ordered lamb vindaloo, coriander and garlic pilau and chilli naan bread.
A spicy and delicious experience. The lamb was tender and juicy. The pilau was well cooked spot on and the naan bread was exactly as chewy and fluffy as it should be.
The service was friendly and attentive, and the freshly prepared food came out of the kitchen quickly.
Can only be recommended.

Cleveland Hotel

Lovely local, friendly staff, nice selection of beers and lagers at a competitive price, large screen tv,s ,sports, darts, pool etc and always someone ready for a friendly chat...proper local !

Novello Ristorante

Great location, excellent food.
This place changed my experience about Italian restaurants. I really enjoyed the food here and the portions were so much and we were filled.
The staff were very professional.
Totally recommend.

The Stapylton Arms

Really warm and welcoming pub. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Spent yesterday with my friends for our annual Christmas get together although it was very busy. Staff still managed to provide excellent customer service and great table service. Food was lovely….definitely recommend ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tracy and Julie always looking after us

Vegetarian options: Salad pizzas pastas

The Chairman

We had an 18th birthday celebration here, we were able to hire the whole venue for up to 70 people, the staff were brilliant - they organised lovely fresh hot buffett which included parmo slices, halloumi, chicken skewers, spring rolls, gorgeous chips and wedges, plenty to go round and what was left was packed up as take away for guests to take home. Staff sorted music and karaoke - dj was brilliant and played whatever we wanted - everyone loved the karaoke! They looked after us from start to finish , no stress , we just turned up with a cake and decorated the room which they helped us with. There is a lovely table for the cake and a sparkly trellis wall where we pegged up some old photos. Staff were so lovely all night and made sure we had the best time. They did some special deals on shot trays which went down well and we used the full 7- midnight time slot. We have been before for Sunday lunch and evening drinks and enjoyed it but it was ever nicer to have the place to ourselves. Everything was really reasonably priced, it was perfect size and location so atmosphere was fantastic. Would thoroughly recommend and definitely use again for a private party. Thank you.

The Copperstone

We visited yesterday afternoon. The food and service was excellent and very fairly priced. Our waiter, Lewis was very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. lovely experience

Norman Conquest

Called in for some food late afternoon. Hannah very friendly behind the bar, helped us find a table and took our drinks order. Really helpful as well when we were ordering food.

Chadwicks Inn Maltby

Table had to keep attracting staff to replenish drinks, beautiful food, shame about the service.

Parking: Large carpark to the side of restaurant

Poverina Inn

Went after work to relax and have some nice food. This place definitely delivered, I ordered hot shot parmo, and the other half ordered ultimate chicken burger. Both looked amazing, and you could tell it freshly made.
Parmo was perfect. I would definitely recommend it, and I will definitely be going back.

Customer service was also spot on

Whinstone View Bistro, Luxury Log Cabins with Hot Tubs, Wedding Barn & Spa

Beautiful Lodge in a wonderful setting. Lodge has everything you need, staff very friendly and helpful. Had a lovely walk upto Roseberry Topping, then came back to live music in the Tipi. can't want to return.

Olivito's Pizza

Lovely food - Definitely the best pizza's around by far!

Delivery well within the hour and friendly drivers.

100% recommended!

The Rudds Arms

The Rudds is an excellent spot to grab delicious food and drinks, regardless of the time of day. They often feature live music and DJs, creating an energetic and enjoyable atmosphere. Kyle was the standout staff member, providing exceptional service during our staff night out - he definitely showed management material ? thanks again ??

Greedy Gannet

Lovely people who work there always very friendly and accommodating food is lovely gorgeous Parmo and just had my first pizza from there that was very tasty too would recommend this takeaway

Toby Carvery Middlesbrough

Great afternoon really enjoyed

Parking: I'm Disabled need wider parking space bit limited but I was fortunate to get one my partner registered partial blind so collectively we need wide parking near to destination

Delhi Lounge

We visited for tea, we got the banquet which was great value for £20pp this included popadoms, starter, curry, rice and naan! The food was tasty and hot on when it arrived. The staff were very friendly and really looked after us. It’s not my first choice for takeaway but would definitely return to eat in.

The Southern Cross

The food was lovely. The service was really good. When we put our order in, some of the more popular items on the menu had run out, The lady who served us was very helpful and gave us plenty of time to re-order. I would highly recommend the southern cross

Craft Burger Boro

First time ordering from user eats as I live in a village and have very little choice and just eat are limited and extortionate delivery fees .Now the food is awesome we got a share box for 2 and there was plenty of food and the best tasting burger I've had will deffo order again

Panuozzos

best pizza in middlesbrough and it is not close, friday lunchtime deal is fantastic value and so is their date night menu, can’t recommend this place enough, brilliant staff and atmosphere.

Cleveland Truck Stop

Very helpful an friendly all you've got to do is ask very Happy to help. Food very nice hot an plenty of it good price too. Not to busy an apple room in mess room. Definitely worth a visit won't be disappointed

Middlesbrough Leisure Park

Easy parking, nice and tidy and clean area.Visited Cineworld Cinema, which is only a 3 minute walk from the parking.There’s also Pizzahut, Subway, McDonald’s and Nando’s there.There’s on-site security, so its safe. There’s a few boy racers hanging about but not causing any issues or feeling threatening.Make sure you park in a blue space if its before 6pm, then its free, any space after 6pm is free though.Only park in a blue space if you are using the facilities as they are designated for their customers.If you’re parking to walk into Middlesbrough centre, use a white space to avoid a fine.

McDonald's

Fantastic as ever. But. Special week this one my autistic grandson has been waiting on the grimace shake all month the promotion will last a week we were told. Started Wednesday we go in Thurs and told it was sold out on the 1st day. I don't suppose he will be the only child in tears this week. shame on you mcdonalds

Kid-friendliness: Drawing and colouring sheets and tablets to play games on

McDonald's

Kids were happy enough with food, both were disappointed that they did not get a chance to use 'winning sips' as cups presented were normal plain McDonalds trademark pattern instead of current game promotion.Staff were friendl.Kid-friendliness: Very few seats left for kids to sit at, initially sat at child's seats, but no game consoles available for them to use, hardware removed from area.

McDonald's

Fast and usually quiet McDonald's. Only downside is the location being a bit awkward to get out of but that is not the fault of the restaurant itself. Usually fast service with kind staff.

McDonald's

Didn't have to wait too long for food. It's a while since I last had a meal at McDonald's, surprised at how bland the fries were. This is probably the healthy version with no salt in evidence.

Royal Oak, Great Ayton

Just want to compliment the staff and service this evening, came here with my fiancé and 9 month old son. Service was super quick and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Especially the blonde hair waitress (sorry don’t know her name) our son kept smiling at her and she offered us plastic cutlery for him and sterilised his dummy when he threw it on the floor. The Parmesan was 10/10 Thank you all so much for a lovely meal.

The Poorhouse

Lovely place to eat either in the daytime or the pizza evening's.
This place was recommended by the accommodation that we're staying at, well believe me that the recommendation was spot on.
The staff and the owner went out of their way when we asked for specific coffee's.
We would recommend 100% they go well and beyond with service and the delivery of food.

Linthorpe Hotel

The best pub in Teesside in my opinion: great staff, superb landlords, and the Taddy is second to none. Highly recommend for groups or loan folks looking for new pals…

The Good Food Joint

The best takeaway shop in Middlesbrough, these people really know how to cook a roast.The proprietors provide a great friendly service with a wide range of warm food products and drinks. The gravy is amazing, as are the large soft bread rolls. The prices are very reasonable. A real deserving all round 10/10

KCS

If you are craving for delicious Asian (Pakistani) food, this is THE place. No proper dine-in area though, so you got to take-away. And good luck finding a proper parking place to wait. Regardless, the food is worth the hassle.

Balti Hut Indian Takeaway

Fantastic, loads of meat in the curry, very flavour full. The keema nan, was luvly. And full of keema meat also. Not like other places. And shame is, they don't do keema rice

Pizza Lazio

Parking: Me and my husband ordered a pizza from here tonight and it was very very nice the staff are so nice parmo was nice to would definitely recommend this place

JAMALS in MIDDLESBROUGH

We were staying in Middlesbrough as travelling football fans and stumbled upon this restaurant by chance because it was round the corner from where we were staying. We walked in about 6:30pm without booking and could see 2 people just about to leave so it looked as though we would be in luck. On entering, we saw a man that worked there walking towards us so we asked if we could have a table for 3. As for the response, I honestly couldn’t tell you what it was but what I can say is that after a good 2 or 3 mins of arms waving in the air, fast talking and lots of animation, we were shown to a table. For those that have been to this restaurant, this was our first introduction to ‘Jamal’. As we now know, Jamal is the owner/chef/waiter/bar man/pot wash etc etc and he is quite a character! He did explain (shout) that all food was cooked fresh by him and that basically we would get it when he had cooked it, and no sooner. We were happy with this and by this point we had kind of worked out that he was a man who was very passionate about his business but also, probably had a very high blood pressure! Before we ordered any food, 2 more parties arrived who I believe had pre-boked (a couple and a party of 6). We heard Jamal give them the same speel we had already heard and they all seemed quite familiar with his ‘personality’, I guess they were regulars to the restaurant. They hadn’t been sat down many minutes when both parties chatted to us, they clearly picked up on our Essex accents and realised we weren’t from the area and told us that Jamal’s was the best Indian food in town. They were not wrong! Whilst the review of the actual food is short and sweet, I feel it’s very important to set the scene. Our food arrived and it was hot and delicious but we seriously over ordered – we never learn! Jamal kindly offered to box it up for us to take home but with a 4 hours drive back the next day, we politely declined. Price wise, I’d guess it was probably average for the area, if not quite reasonable (6 poppadoms, 3 rices, 3 mains, 3 naans, 2 pints of cobra and a coke for about £80). We noticed the tables that came in after us had to wait a bit longer to eat but this was explained on arrival so I don’t think anybody can object to that. What made it even more entertaining was the young male waiter, who didn’t seem to be trusted by Jamal to take food orders, pour drinks or work out the bill.. poor guy looked bored out of his brain most of the time we were there. All in all, a lovely meal, surrounded by lovely locals (special mention to Damian and Becky if you read this, sorry but we didn’t catch the names of the party of 6 who were equally as lovely). Be prepared, the hospitality could come across as brash if you don’t know Jamal’s little ways, we found it all very amusing though. If our team face Middlesbrough again next season, we will be back to Jamal’s without hesitation, although hopefully he’ll be on the chill pills by then.

Jimmy's

Hey absolutely top service on phone, no questions a problem, I ordered two person menu plus sundries, everything was beautiful, hot! And on specials, no skipping on King! Prawns and good beef! Just beautiful ?

Pizza Mondo

Every time I order from Mondo's the food is always piping hot and incredibly delicious. It's hands down the best takeaway pizza in Middlesbrough! I've had pizza from practically every takeaway in this town and nothing beats it ?? I highly recommend the Romano if you want a super cheesy, garlicky pizza with the tastiest tomato base I've ever had!

Wok 88

Huge selection on the menu. I ordered my food and it was delivered within 15 minutes, all piping hot and freshly cooked. It was delicious. Best Chinese in Middlesbrough can’t fault them!

Belle Vue Fisheries

Wow nice chips, english green salad, plus a parmo big enough to sink a ship ,,nice n thick too.piping hot delivered in 30mins, well happy,, loads of left overs ,Parm for breakfast n dinner the next day Buzzing plus quality right up there.THANK

Maharaja Tandoori

Food is fantastic. Prices ain't the cheapest but worth it as the quality is their. Only ever go here when I need Indian chips chillin buhna (spelling?) And a few xtras always a win

Domino's Pizza - Middlesbrough

Dan was amazing, excellent customer experience, I would definitely recommend to come here. Shyam is the best pizza maker in the world. Would give 20/10 if I could

The Discovery

I didn't have food although looked at
menu and was reasonable.

Vegetarian options: As I only read the menu I can only say they have vegetarian options of meat meals and snacks.

Parking: The location is on a main road in a town centre so no parking.however you are 2 mins from train station and 5 from the bus station.This is a lively venue through the day serving family's and a brilliant bouncing venue on a weekend with lots of nightlife and pubs around.

Greek Mezetaverna

Could not fault the food or the service. Would have been 5☆ if it wasn't for having to enter via an enclosed outside seating area that was full of people smoking with no ventilation. Once inside the restaurant, there was still a smell of smoke.However, onto the food. Mezze sharer for two was excellent. Perfect size tasting platter.Mains were chicken gyros, this is served with amazing homemade chips, sliced pitta, salad and garlic sauce. I had a special grill for one, skewer of chicken, lamb and pork with a Greek sausage. All cooked to perfection, again served with pitta, chips, salad garlic and sweet chilli sauce.The gentleman that served us was very attentive and friendly. Overall a lovely experience. To the owners, please ventilate the smoking area!! ?

Golden Chopsticks Chinese Restaurant & Takeaway

Just had our first taste of golden chopsticks and can honestly say that's the best Chinese meal we've both had. The meal turned up piping hot and was amazing.

Tasties Pizzeria

Small hair on pizza but everything else was lovely cheese burger delicious ? thank you only one small problem just a small hair on pizza but thank you for other lovely food always great service and atmosphere

Al-Wasi Biryani House

Hot Wok

I few weeks ago me and a few freinds where looking for a restaurant to eat at in Middlesbrough after walking through the street I can smell hot wok from a mile away from outside the store and instantly knew we had to try as we worked in the staff where very welcoming and lovely to talk to the prices on the menu 100% worth it for the quality of food you are getting when the food came out the presention was perfect and the food was even nicer can’t wait to come back thank you for a lovely meal

Akbar's Restaurant

We had a wedding function at akbars today, and they could not have been more helpful.
Raj and the staff were excellent.
The food was lovely and the service was very good.

Eston Fish Bar

Mint Leaf @ Sirkars

The food was a bit too spicy for my taste buds. Kothuporata was not as expected. But Thalaseri biryanis was nice as it was the special dish of the day. We had Kallu there.

Royal China

Chicken fried rice - very niceChicken in black bean sauce - fantastic and loads of sliced chicken breast.Chips - very niceGood menu choice of meals including Thai and Malaysian. Will definitely use this takeaway again. One of the better takeaways in BoroVegetarian options: Many main meals have at least one vegetarian option such asMushroom curryVegetable curry

Perfect Fried Chicken Linthorpe Road

this food is so good it helps me sleep better at night the food is the best in the world nothing could even compete the £2.99 price for 2 mini burgers and chips is fantastic it makes me so happy.

McDonald's

Went in today took our not so hot food upstairs chips a little overdone/cold it wasn't the cleanest upstairs food left on tables.. bins over flowing could do with a good clean very scruffy!!!!??

Perfect Chicken

Well... I'm lost for words... the only word that comes to mind is "perfect" lol!Honestly, the burger and chips are just the best around.If I can criticise anything, it would be the chips; sometimes they are reheated, but 90% of the time they are freshly fried and served.You got to try it. They have perfected the flavours in their chicken and the taste is phenomenal.Anyway - that's my honest opinion. Hope it helps.

Off the Ground Coffee

Just enjoyed a lovely brunch here with friends. Exceeded all expectations, great food, great atmosphere, great staff. Just wished I lived closer so I could visit more often!

Lip Smackers

Had a couple of decent sandwiches sat in the courtyard in the sun. Extremely good value, friendly owner and great service - better than service we've received in so called upmarket restaurants. Thank you.

O'Connells

We had drinks all night from 7pm until we were turfed out just before midnight. Staff are great and really efficient. A new starter (?) was soon upto speed with my complex beer order (Deuchars IPA), and she gave a fantastic smile by the close.

The band was excellent to the degree that we were all up and about bopping away.

Suggitt's Ice Creams

Never disappoints, the ice cream is as good today as it was 65 years ago when I used to visit as a small child. You can still buy all the "old fashioned"sweets (pear drops and midget gems were my favourites) by the ounce from big jars. It takes me back to my childhood.

Greggs

This is a great Greggs, it's the staff that make it so. Full of beans and really friendly. They've got the knack of being great with people while serving up the goods mega fast.

Thank you to all the lovely ladies at Marton Greggs

Pav's Munchies, est.1996

Best takeaway place in teesside as far as I'm concerned, never had a bad experience from Pavs in my 16 years of using this place. The food is amazing with large portions of near enough everything and the prices are not bad either, only thing I could think of changing would be to swap the 14" family size pizza option to 16" but that's just me being greedy ?

The Liquor Vaults

wonderful here not even toxic not like issaic willsons me dog was booted she a carer for me we was booted more than once there site says if u have dog carer worker there they won't kick u out full of lies. I really enjoy coming here the staff always friendly there wonderful & funny too i admit real great place thankie so very much in everything & more!!??????????????????

Antalya Shawarma

We are from London and visited Middlesbrough and tried this restaurant. Trust me, we were 11 people and amazed with delicious food very very reasonable price and wonderful staff. 100 out of 100. A must try place. Just next to Teesside University. Lamb shawarma is a must..

Baker Street Kitchen

Fantastic helpful staff and the food is always good quality and prompt! The prices are good - except for the window cakes which can be £6 a slice! - and the amount good as well! Gave 4 stars for atmosphere as it gets loud but this shows how popular it is!

The Jovial Monk

I've been going to this pub for many, many years and Brad and Gayle are probably the best landlord/lady that I've encountered there. There's always something going on in the pub during the day and on an evening and you get a decent pint at a decent price.

The Pig Iron

A bit of a rough diamond but it is a good place and the people I encountered were pleasant and welcoming. Very busy and probably the most popular bar in Middlesborough from my own observations, just a good old fashioned pub that has a mix of patrons in various states of merriness. The door staff are very professional, I ended up there one night and was totally wrecked from some heavy whisky testing earlier, upon arriving at the Pig Iron the door staff declined my entry and even took care of me at the door while my mate went in for a drink! Cant beat that for patience and caring, thank you. The drinks are cheaper than most other places, toilets are too bad. Good crack !

The Swatters Carr - JD Wetherspoon

Huge thanks to Leanne the Chef for the donation of hair nets for a veterans function at a nearby charity event. Really appreciated. Good beer, cracking service and a good pub

Manjaros Restaurant Middlesbrough

Fabulous ? , travelled from Staffordshire to visit some family and was recommended by them. Didn't disappoint... Tandoori Palmo was perfect, little hint for those new to the area ... don't order a full one !

Golden Bell Fish And Chips

Some of the best fish and chips I have ever had,
and the parmos are huge and delicious too. Everything was wonderful with huge portions; very generous and cooked fresh. Shout out to the wonderful service, thank you Amanda!

Kid-friendliness: Our daughter loved the kids cod bites!

Caffè Nero

Staff are very friendly and welcoming, always a lovely atmosphere when you walk in! Highly recommend the pain au chocolat, almond croissants and it always tastes fresh!
