Rosemary's Cafe - Sunderland

I live around the corner to Rosemary’s cafe and eat here regularly.I always feel as if I’ve eaten well on good fresh vegetables and plenty of them. .The meat of the day varies my favourite is beef or lamb with lovely gravy. There is also steak pie,chicken curry breakfasts and other choices. The staff are very caring too,I’ve noticed how they are helpful towards customers always keeping an eye on the door if needs closing due to drought on customers or help on opening Door,or watch the step.Meals are hot and tasty.Ive eaten in lots of places and this one takes some beating.Outstanding value for monies and also good fresh quality food lovingly prepared. Also lots of solo people come in and feel at home relaxed.

Proper mackem cafe! Full English large breakfast £4.95 pot of tea included fantastic service and food was bang on! They have daily specials on so support a local business and get yourself in!

The food I had was good, plentiful and cheap. However, the heating didn't seem able to cope with the exceptionally cold weather and the table cloth on my table was damp following an earlier spillage, perhaps?

Visited here before walking down the road to the beach front. This is a really wonderful corner-street cafe serving home-cooked meals for around a fiver and has a truly wonderful energy of its own. My friend and I sat across from three old dears who were eating and sharing pots of tea. My friend ate scampi, peas and home-cooked chips and I ate meat, potatoes and vegetables. We both ordered tea. This is a gem of an establishment if you want home-cooked scran in a quite plain but very welcoming setting.

This place is really dirty. No wonder theres no scores on the doors here Table cloths thread bare and don 't seem to have seen a washing machine forever. Table legs have paint flaking away as you sit. Place mats with old food stuck to them. I tried to swap mine with another two tables bit they were equally as dirty. Décor ..... everything ancient, all pictures faded beyond recognition, Waitress is the most unsociable and ill mannered person I have met. In simple terms...... just give it a miss
