Coffee and cake were lovely, it was very warm inside which wasn't great. But the staff were lovely and the customers around us seemed very happy. The food arriving at other tables looked delicious too

Went for breakfast only....2 people. -it was very busy but service was quick enough given the -circumstances. -the miners Benedict was good, but a slice of toast would have made it significantly better. HOWEVER -the latte was one of the worst i've ever drank, and this includes from 50p vending machines. It actually tasted like it came from a poor quality vending machine, with skimmed milk.

Went for Christmas afternoon tea yesterday, can honestly say it's the BEST ever!! A selection of finger sandwiches, pig in blanket, mini quiche and vol au vent, a great selection of cakes (the carrot cake was to die for) and a trifle. Every single item was absolutely delicious if I could give it more than 5 stars I would. All of this was topped off with wonderful, friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble. We will be back throughout the year but will most definitely be booking for the Christmas tea next year. Thank you The Clifton for starting off our Christmas in the most perfect way!

On the weekend of 20th Oct'23, We had family staying locally for a Celebration Party we were holding. One of our family were booked into the The Clifton for 2 nights. We decided to join the family member on the Sunday Morning, I asked the relative to book a table for 5, which he did. On arriving at the Clifton's Cafe at 915am, A member of their team asked if we had a booking, I told her yes for 5 people, she showed us to a table for 4, I repeated it was for 5 (at this point our family member had come down from his guest room), the owner then interjected saying to "add a chair on end of table", one table isnt large enough for 5 adults plus all the drinks, breakfasts, plates etc I asked her if we could have table opposite but she didn't like that idea so i suggested another table, neither were given to us. After a lot of eye rolling & giving off a vibe that we were "an inconvenience ", we were told to "get in the snug". Unfortunately, the chairs in this area are very very low down & two in our group having disabilities, it wasn't suitable, so back into the main area we went. Only for more eye rolling & to be honest, rather abrupt attitude from the owner, telling us to sit where we'd already asked for, making us all feeling very uncomfortable. We spent over £50 between 4 of us for breakfast plus the £157 our family member paid for 2 night stay & I have to say her attitude was appalling & not acceptable. I decided to direct message the Clifton last night & explain how the owner made us feel & how we were upset by the whole situation. My message was read but no response after 24hrs. We've used this Cafe on many an occasion as you get such a lovely breakfast. I'm so disappointed they didn't respond to my message. I guess our business isn't that important to them, its sad but we'll have to move on.

We visited The Clifton Coffee Shop this week with our small dog. He was given a warm welcome as we were, too. We enjoyed a delicious jacket potato with prawns, probably one of the best we've ever had in a restaurant. Thank you all at the Clifton for giving us an enjoyable experience and we look forward to our next visit.

Had an excellent breakfast at a the Clifton. We had pre booked the table which is just as well as it was so busy (at 9am.) I ordered the traditional English breakfast and my husband order a pick your own, also toast and a pot of tea. The surroundings were decorated beautifully and it was immaculately clean. The breakfasts came out in good time and were piping hot, everything was cooked perfectly. We both throughly enjoyed the food no complaints at all! Service was excellent with pleasant, efficient staff who run thing like a well oiled machine. The price £25 for the two of us.Can’t wait to go back and try the lunch menu and the afternoon tea. 10/10

A group of 15 friends enjoyed afternoon tea in the lounge. Everything went smoothly from the time of booking onwards. The Lounge was the perfect space for us and very nicely set for our booking. All the staff we encountered were friendly, helpful and efficient. The food itself was nice and fresh with a good afternoon tea selection and not short on portion size. The tea and coffee was repeatedly replenished. All in all the whole group were impressed.

Afternoon tea for three ,for the not cheap price of 15.00 per head i personally found all of it very disappointing,lacklustre sandwiches,microwaved mini tarts so the pastry went soft,scones i found tasteless and doughy ,worst of all for me ,no proper butter just an awful for me ,what tasted like a cheap spread on sandwiches and for the mini herb scone (if thats what is was) i couldnt face the rest of the sandwiches or cakes although my husband enjoyed the lemon and carrot cake. We have had far better in other establishments, but nice clean attractive decor and toilets and the food liked nice enough on other diners plates.

Having never been a "coffee shop goer", my mate & I stumbled across this gem of a place some 8 or 9 years ago. We very quickly became regulars and enjoyed not only the food and wonderful service, but watching the business evolve (& indeed thrive) over the years. The menu is varied and very accommodating for people with dietary constraints, whilst the decor is beautifully maintained and refreshed, giving the establishment a real classy feel. Friends from outside the region who have visited me have always been impressed (indeed, many have also stayed in their B&B rooms, which are quite beautiful). Anyone who knows Shields will be aware there is no shortage of coffee shops competing for business, but I genuinely think The Clifton is a cut above other establishments: there really is no comparison. Bravo Scott, Liz & all of the staff. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

The decor and seating is good, staff polite. Unfortunately the portions are poor and prices are high and the Clifton is riding on its previous good reputation which is unlikely to last. Tea for 2 is a pot which just fills the 2 small tea cups once and the pot is then empty. If you ask for it to be refilled you will realise that they only put 1 tea bag in the pot. The same size pot they use for tea for 1 but are charging twice as much. I wonder if they put half a tea bag in the pot of tea for 1. A cheese and ham omlette showed no trace of ham and barely any cheese. Eggs royale were anything but with the most miserly portion of salmon I have ever seen, one thin slice trimmed so small you had to lift the egg to even notice it. I know prices have risen but there are many very good cafes around now which are serving better quality, better portions and a decent size pot of tea. I'd suggest you go elsewhere, maybe the Clifton will then have a re-think.

We stopped off here following the reviews on TripAdvisor. We were only stopping for coffee but were tempted by their cakes. Both coffee and cakes were amazing as were the helpful staff. An added bonus was they were dog friendly. Although not the cheapest we had on our holiday the cakes were definitely the best. Well worth a short walk from the front to experience this coffee shop. Simply excellent.

My wife and I booked for breakfast here. I'd never eaten here despite living in South Shields all of my life, but boy am I glad I did. A warm welcome awaits you here whether you are a guest at the adjacent Clifton Hotel or just passing by. The surroundings are very cosy, impeccably clean and the place has a lovely vibe. The staff are very polite and friendly with customers and it has a very family-run feel overall. The food selection (even during Covid-19) is wide and varied. I chose a Full English and my wife chose the Eggs Royale. Both were outstanding in terms of presentation and taste. They offer afternoon teas too which I have heard are wonderful. If you are staying in South Shields, you must try this place as it really is a little gem.

Liz and Scott made me feel very welcome during my stay. The hotel is absolutely fantastic, immaculately clean, serves a very reasonably priced, first class afternoon tea and great bacon sandwiches for breakfast. The rooms I stayed in over two weekends were very accommodating, immaculate and had all the additional features you would expect to find in a hotel of such high class. The hotel is located in a few minutes walk from the sea front and the town centre. I would highly recommend The Clifton to Company’s looking to accommodate key workers, as was the purpose of my stay. May I pass on my personal thanks to Liz and Scott, wishing them both a safe, healthy, happy and prosperous future. Best regards, Steve.

Not the fault of the coffee shop...who apparently weren't aware , but Tripadvisor state they are open from 9-1 p.m. on Sundays. They are NOT! They don't open on Sunday as I found out to my cost after a 12 mile drive on Sunday January 5th only to find the doors firmly shut at 11.30a.m.

A large group of us visited for afternoon tea on New Years Eve. As a previous visit had shown the premises were quite small, I wondered what it would be like.. It surpassed expectations. We were in a private room at the front of the building, seated on comfortable sofas and armchairs with a large central table. The food was delicious. 4 types of sandwiches, quiche, pigs in blankets, savoury and cream scones, trifles and cakes. Doggy bags were provided for leftovers. We are planning our next visit already.

This has been the worst experience with a gift card I have EVER had. I’ve never left a negative review in my life until now. My wife and I received a twenty dollar electronic gift card for Christmas

Massive portions, great value for money, lovely ambiance and food. The service was great too. We got two gyros and two burgers- both dishes were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!

I am tempted not to publish this because the meal was so good and the waiting staff so supportive. Real value for money. Great Food and a reasonable price. A great little treat and it supports the kid
