The Drop In Cafe in Stockton-on-Tees

This cafe is located on Norton Road right near the town centre. It is quite big inside compared to other cafes. I thought the food was alright, reasonably priced. There was quite a few staff in there that were hovering around watching your every move though, which I thought was a bit strange.

Best breakfast in town, thank you and merry Christmas 🌲

Hate to sound rude, but the quality of the meals here is very basic. Not much flavour. The meals are very tasteless. Gordon Ramsay would have a lot to say about the standard of the meals at this place. Lol. The quality of the meals just isn't worth the money.

Excellent food freshly cooked lovely staff would recommend

Was a bit disappointing 1 small piece of bacon half a dozen slices of mushroom and under cook black pudding

So today I ordered a Sunday lunch for me and the children. I had previously heard good things about the drop in cafe. However, I was very disappointed. I ordered early thinking I would get the freshly cooked food. Unfortunately, the roast potatoes were actually frozen ones. The Yorkshire puddings and even the meat was also frozen packet food. For the price of the dinners I expected the food to be home made, especially when you charge 50p for a extra Yorkshire pudding.Furthermore, the vegetables and gravy was very bland. Unfortunately, we will not be trying here again.

Not like it use to be. Gravy not the same frozen chips. Was really disappointed. Preferred the old way homemade triple cooked chips and the most delicious gravy. Good price if you don’t mind frozen food.

Ordered egg bacon sausage fried onion in a bun also egg bacon and mushroom both large sandwiches.. only to open it up and there was one peice of bacon in both sandwich one sausage I was totally disappointed as I've had a gd sandwich before from there also was a can of pop down,always have had gd food from there but today was very disappointing

Very nice dinner , lovely and hot , I asked for extra gravy and it came straight away, roasted and Yorkshire's were frozen would have preferred home made but still very good , lovely staff
