Reviews in Houghton-le-Spring

First time at the beehive after hearing so many good reviews from friends we had to give it a go and we're certainly not disappointed. The service and atmosphere was great, the food was unbelievable and we will most definitely be going again very soon.

Fantastic breakfast, all quality ingredients and great service ( as is the norm). We’ll be back, with elasticted pants.

Truly attentive staff and amazing food. We visited, myself brother and elderly mam and dad. My dad is such a fussy eater which has actually put him off coming out for food in the past. The waitess really looked after him. She really did go above and beyond. A little gem of a place. Masive potions and tasty food. We will be back. ( my dad says sorry for being such a pain haha)

Absolutely amazing food as always, huge portions, well worth the money! Not too expensive! Staff are really friendly too! Our favourite spot! Pork belly is 10/10!!

From walking in to leaving 10/10. The service was spot on and everyone had a smile on their face and very happy to help. The food was amazing fresh to order and tasted unreal. Love the bee theme and clean and great value for money, We will be back again soon. It’s not very often you find a place that ticks all the boxers but you did in every way Thank you for a wonderful meal.

Second time coming, just the same as the first time. Excellent service, lush Sunday roast. Will definitely be back again!

We’ve visited many times for lunch and evening meals and wanted to try the breakfast. Wasn’t disappointed and will be back. Great quality and friendly service.

After hearing the recent positivity surrounding the beehive we took the first opportunity to secure an evening booking. I have to say, it was a faultless experience from start to finish. Staff were brilliant, friendly and worked phenomenally hard to keep everything flowing. The food was amazing, so tasty and the portion sizes, well they are a class of their own! Overall just an amazing experience start to finish. Reasonably priced, infact. Just wonderful. Thankyou all again team Beehive. We will be back!!

Food is absolutely unreal! Super generous portions too. The staff are very friendly and helpful and can't do enough for you. We've visited many times and almost made our way through the menu now. We will always return!

Food was fantastic 10/10 staff were friendly inviting and attentive Will definitely be returning

The food is amazing, staff are great, we really enjoyed our meal

Came for tea with 2 others. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Food was amazing and so was dessert. Will definitely be back.

Terrible lunch hear yesterday, arrived when it was quiet and still waited an hour for our order, customers who arrived after us had actually finished there meal before we got ours and it was more than one table this happened with, when the food did finally arrive the chicken parmo & gammon and eggs were cold not even the smallest bit of warmth and chips looked like they had been fried numerous times & were covered in grease!! Only good thing about the place is the friendly staff. Not even an apology after sending the meals back!!

Piping hot Food and service was amazing. Will go again 100%

Had a fantastic meal with my family! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The owners even took the time to chat, adding a lovely personal touch to the experience. A warm, welcoming atmosphere and top-notch service—can't wait to return!

Visited lunchtime on the 25th of February.. Our first time eating here! Food was delicious and staff were very nice. We will definitely come back again. Thank you

First time visiting and everything was great, food was delicious and service was friendly and attentive. Can see why you need to book up a few weeks in advance! Will be back

1st visit last night for family birthday on recommendation of some of our party who had eaten here before. Food was lovely and I can't believe I'm saying this too large !! Estimated the bill at at least 33% more than it actually was proving how reasonable the prices are. Staff were excellent, attending on every need making sure my son's Guinness was full and my 5 year old granddaughter got to blow the candles out on the birthday cake. Will definitely visit again (soon) and staff seemed to really appreciate us saying so last night on leaving.
