Dil & the Bear in Tynemouth is a charming cafe with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The decor is beautiful and the staff are always friendly and helpful. The menu offers a great selection of food and drinks, from classic British dishes to global influences. The food is delicious and reasonably priced, and there's a great selection of cakes and pastries. There's also a lovely outdoor area, which is perfect for enjoying a hot drink or a meal on sunny days. The toilets are always spotlessly clean. Overall, Dil & the Bear is a great place to visit for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just for a coffee and cake. Highly recommended!

Walked in on Mother’s Day morning with the wife and kids. We were promptly seated in the cosy dining room. Food came fast and hot. Bagel, breakfast ciabatta, French toast and Avocado toast were lovely! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Lovely staff, food and atmosphere. X Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 5
I've been to Dil & the bear twice now, and neither time has been great. First time I found the staff rude, and I was quite disappointed that they had no customer WiFi even though they had a router on the counter. Visited again today to give the place another go, once again the staff were really standoffish and not very attentive at all. There was a small mix-up with my friend's order. She ordered a vegan breakfast but asked to make it veggie by adding an egg. Her food arrived without an egg and when we queried it, she was met rudely that you had to pay extra which wasn't told to us when we ordered, and apparently she failed to mention what kind of egg she wanted that's why she didn't get one. This seems minor, but the small details like that really puts you off your food. It's pretty expensive, so you feel like good customer service should be a given which it isn't here.
