However, they were very helpful and obliging and the food we had was delicious and excellent. It was so good that we had a late lunch there the very next day!

Spicy China - Shiney Row
31, Westbourne Terrace, Shiney Row, Houghton le SpringWe have been going to Spicy China for our Chinese food for about 8 years now. It is genuinely the best Chinese takeaway we’ve ever had. The service is always so fast, the food is so tasty and the staff are lovely too. We find the price so reasonable and we’ve never had a bad meal yet. We always buy chicken dishes and the chicken is so tender and the portions generous. We have recommended Spicy China to family who travel 20 minutes to pick theirs up they like it so much. Highly recommend!

All good quality ingredients and cooked well . The rest of the menu represents great value for money aswell with an 8oz steak for around £15 thats a bargain .

Houghton Rd, Newbottle, Houghton le SpringAbsolutely blown away by our meal tonight! I ordered the seafood pasta and it was nothing short of incredible—perfectly cooked, packed with fresh, flavorful seafood, and coated in a rich, beautifully balanced sauce that tied everything together. Every bite tasted like it had been crafted with real care.
My partner went for the prawn and chicken pasta, and that dish was just as amazing!
The atmosphere, the presentation, and the quality of the food all came together to create a genuinely memorable dining experience. This place is an absolute must-visit. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Pizzalicious By AL (Fencehouses )
Gladstone St, Colliery Row, Houghton le SpringReally glad I tried this place (if you had a website, I might have tried sooner, but it has always been busy anyway). Been 3 times and it has been consistent each time. I've always collected as soon as my order is ready. Mixed kebab is perfect for sharing with 2 breads and a big portion each. Everything is good quality, I especially like the kofta which is fresh and flavourful. They have optional roasted vegetables for the kebabs included that other places don't offer, and this works well. The price is spot on for what you get. Staff are welcoming. I definitely recommend ?

The Highfield Hotel
101 Durham Rd, East Rainton, Houghton le SpringNice place 15 mins or so to Sunderland.
Staff pleasant . Room clean but a little rough around the edges.
Found bed comfortable.
Choice of either traditional English or Thai cuisine. Had Thia the first night great choice taste great and presented early well on my second night had the Steak and ale pie it was ok but nothing fancy average pub grub.
The take away service did seem popular with the locals and plenty in the restaurant.
Breakfast menu looked a bit confusing but works for the hotel.
Downside great for contractors and people booking hotel for work purposes, for those booking for leisure the breakfast was too early to finish. The breakfast finishes at 8.45 sharp, and the reason I say sharp is that sometimes nine came down at 8.40 and was being rushed to order hot food before he had a chance to properly read menu or even make a brew.
Bedroom had a god number of sockets, lacked a USB socket so make sure you bring a plug or leave the TV on as you could plug into that.

South St, West Rainton, Houghton le SpringWow! I have visited this Italian for many years and seen many owners and managers come and go. I must share that it is now the best it has EVER been! The entire building has been renovated and is fresh, clean and classy. The service was fabulous, all staff were happy, friendly and clearly enjoyed their job! The manager is wonderful, attentive, super friendly and makes effort with every single person that steps into the building, giving it a very special, homely feel. The food, THE FOOD - the best it has ever been; fresh and super tasty! The lasagne is by far the best lasagne I have ever had in my life. My dad had the mussels and said that it was the best sauce he has ever had with mussels (white wine, cream & garlic). We can’t fault this stunning little gem and cannot wait to return to try more of the new menu!
