Royally looked after this evening by the lovely team at Hinnies. Enjoyed a fabulous meal in celebration of my mums 80th. Food and service were equally superb. Cannot rate this place highly enough.

Gorgeous food and cosy atmosphere.Recommend the chicken breast with veg and dauphinoise potatoes, and the curried parsnip and potato soup.

Booked for brunch this morning and was not disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious, piping hot, really fresh. No faff - just tasty, honest, moreish food! The service was great, Hinnies provides a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere for people to enjoy the views of the seafront with a delicious meal. It won't be long before we go back again! Thank you to everyone at Hinnies for such a lovely morning ?Kid-friendliness: Colouring packs are provided for entertainment.

Amazing food! They have a set menu so very good value. Great service. It was cool inside the restaurant so be prepared.

Slightly disappointing breakfast. "Home made beans" tasted very familiar and didn't come with the brown sauce, onions or sourdough on the menu. On the smashed avocado dish, accompaniments were half a fried tomato, few spinich leaves and no mushroom as described on the menu. £2 extra for some halloumi included a single, very thin, slightly overcooked slice. Also charged for 4 teas and got maybe a cup and a half each. Didn't feel great value for £15.
Traditional Geordie food with a posh twist. Well worth a visit.

We went there for brunch and were very disappointed. While the servers were friendly and attentive once at our seats when we first arrived we had a pram and were just left to ourselves to try and work out where to put it and find a highchair without any offer of help or guidance.That by itself wouldn't really have mattered if the food was up to scratch but it really was poor I'm afraid. We went for brunch and got avocado on toast twice, eggs benedict and eggs florentine. Fairly easy to cook stuff really but one portion of avocado was so oversalted it was almost inedible, the other had too much oil and just tasted bland and both should have been served with their own sourdough. They did come and say the sourdough hadn't worked and hey, we can all get things wrong occasionally but they replaced it with bland white stodgy bread. It really wouldn't have been too hard to at least get a decent loaf of bread in from the supermarket rather than the cheap stuff. All of the poached eggs were really undercooked with runny whites and the hollandaise sauce was far too sharp with too much lemon.Overall a very disappointing meal and one we definitely won't be going back to replicate.

Sunday Lunch with the family. Lunch size in itself was mediocre at best. 2 slices of chewy beef, a school canteen style scoop of mixed mash and burnt Yorkshire. Kids pizza is nothing more than half a bread bun with some tomato sauce and cheese. Left the kids hungry and then was charged £5 for a portion of 8 chips to feed the kids as they were still hungry. Puddings the same, burnt sauce with the sticky toffee pudding and inedible chocolate roll. Gone massively downhill and seems it’s all about profit margin now!

Tasteless soup or overcooked dishes. Fish on the bone with hardly any meat. Vegetables soggy. Chewy lasagne dry bread. No acknowledgment of two celebrations despite phoning ahead. Disappointed as have been with the same party previously and was better.
