“Nice food but service is lacking. ”
Review of Mockingbird

Mockingbird
Ranked #20 of 583 Restaurants in Newcastle

Reviewed 12 June 2023

We final got a table for breakfast after having visited on one other unsuccessful occasion when we weren’t able to score a table due to an extensive wait time.

Nice well presented food but service is lacking. The wait staff forgot various ordered items including drinks……And it wasn’t busy on this occasion.

Applying some attention to detail would go along way to improving the whole experience cause the food shines but the service doesn’t.

Food was exceptional in presentation, quality and taste. A real find for us. Staff were attentive but not intrusive. The owner might wish to note that a regular customer turned up with her dog which was placed on the counter and patted by all wait and serving staff who then returned to service without any apparent attention to hygiene impacts for subsequent customers. Food plates and cups were immediately delivered to tables.

Most original breakfast dishes in Newcastle. Beautiful food. We had the Satay French Toast and the Prawn Toast this time and both tasted amazing. We've been here a few times and the food is always terrific. Coffee is great and the service too. Highly recommended.

Not only was the food fresh and full of flavour but the service was prompt (without being pushy and we know this has a fine line) and friendly. The coffee was excellent and all our meals met our high expectations. A lovely positive experience and whilst I am a visitor to the area, I hope to be able to fit in another meal before I have to go home.

We used to go to Eurobar until it closed and we were at a loss to find a good replacement. I think this ticked the boxes for us (and, from the numbers there, lots of other people too!) We're not huge eaters so shared a chicken Korma Roti. It was very good and it seemed to be a popular choice for others that day. Staff were friendly and efficient. We'll go there again.
