Chraming cosy pub in Ellington Village in Northumberland. Near to cresswell beach & druridge bay,…read moreyou can easily stop off here if you are on your way up the coast to amble, or coming back down from that way. Very easy to find and such a nice place. Lovely friendly atmosphere, we got a warm welcome when we arrived. They do a good range of food served Mon-Sat 12pm -8pm and Sunday Lunch 12pm - 3pm. I have not tried a Sunday lunch yet but have been midweek when the food was lovely, generous portions! I thought the cost of the main meals were very good and were what I expect from a local pub. Talking to the lady behind the bar she informed us that they have just added some B&B accommodation, this will come in handy for relatives visiting us from Yorkshire, a bit different from the usual premier inn. The pub itself has a very nice lounge, very relaxing with fireplace. There is plenty of seating in the restaurant and this has a warm atmosphere. There is a separate bar area which also has a nice feel to it. I will come back here again, and although I do not live in Ellington, i wish this was my local! Plenty of parking outside the pub. Fantastic pub grub with a good atmosphere and pleasant surroundings, I'll be back!

One of the group cheekily added her request to the already comprehensive menu,........ and got it, Katrina actually going out to obtain her request. Stunning!! Can't speak too highly of the food, some fussy eaters were really blown away by the quality of the food. The Inn itself, is lovely and comfortable, with great atmosphere. Thanks for making the meal special x

I only stumbled across this bar when I went to a wedding held at Longhirst Hall a few weeks ago…read more Before then I didn't even realise us locals now had somewhere new to go and relax! I was told by a member of staff the bar has only been open 5 months, it's brand spanking new. On my first visit to the bar on the wedding night I was trying to escape the noise of an evening reception being held in the court suite. I had a couple of drinks in the bar and got chatting with the staff. This was a Saturday night and the bar was very very busy, apparently there were 2 wedding evening receptions being held that night and the Collingwood bar is in between both rooms (although suitable distances not to hear noise!) so quite a hub of activity! Even on this busy night there were enough bar staff to go around, no long waits. I returned to the bar 4 days later after work to have a quiet drink and meet some friends, they all loved it too! The bar has an extensive wine and champagne list and have a good variety of drinks. We decided to have something to eat, and let me tell you it was lovely! The portion sizes were fab, good British pub food and the quality & presentation of the food was also a fantastic standard. Longhirst Hall are well known for supporting local businesses so you can be assured what you are eating is local, everything is listed on the menu. They also have a different daily special Mon-Sun where the special of the day comes with a free drink. The bar itself is warm and comfortable, if I remember correctly the barman said it seats 200 people. They serve food Mon-Sun 12pm - 9pm , and are open 11am - 11pm Mon-Sun. You can sit outside too and enjoy the grounds. For wheelchair users you can enter through the main reception, or they have a wheelchair lift on the stairs if you come into the bar from the other end. This bar isn't just for those staying at Longhirst Hall Hotel, it's for us locals too! Everyone should visit and try the food, no complaints here!

I spoke to a man who I thought was the manager and asked if they had feedback systems. he said not, but I could tell him. so I pointed to the plate full of food, stated it was the worst carvery in my life and explained why. he then took mine and my other half's plates away to speak to the chief. I watched him go in the kitchen, could see the chief who at this point had his tongue down a lady's throat on a plus it did appear she worked there. the manager then came out if the office, walked past us and that was that. so if your looking for a nice meal avoid avoid, like the plagues

A large venue which can sometime get busy although a lot quieter than used to be since nightlife in the town seems to have died a little.

A good selection of drinks available and good for a game of pool after work through the week.

Checked in, excellent receptionist…read more Room, as you'd expect from premier inn, clean and fresh, I was in a disabled room (I'm able bodied) but only because the booking was last minute, the receptionist did try and get me another room, but no matter. Hotel grounds, well what can I say? Being a northerner it made me proud of the landscape (we're very proud of our landscape in the north of England) it was amazing, set in the queens own country park, beautiful view wherever you look, huge lake in front, woodland all round, better than any hotel I've stayed in and I stay in a lot with work. The restaurant was pretty much what you'd expect from a Brewers Fayre, good food, good staff, plenty of things to do with the kids as there is a kids play area, after a big meal go for a walk into the woods. Basically if your in the area for a night away whether business or pleasure try and stay here, you won't be disappointed

Prices of food could be better for what get but food is nice to eat be again could be better.

Drinks can be a little pricey but now on par with most places. The bad points are the toilets are accessed by going out into the yard and if raining or cold they are not the best could do with a little redesign to combine to be inside or link to the inside. The bar has always been known for the rock bands it has on but although there are still bands on at times this seems to be changing more to a younger customer and at weekends is more of a little nightclub.
