Tucked away in the picturesque village of Beadnell, The Landing is an exceptional coastal gem that impresses on every level-especially when it comes to its thoughtfully curated menu and relaxed seaside ambience.
As someone with a deep appreciation for quality coastal cuisine, I found The Landing's menu a standout in Northumberland’s food scene. It's clearly been crafted with both locals and tourists in mind, offering a satisfying blend of traditional British staples and contemporary dishes with a refined twist. The standout for me was the pan-seared North Sea cod served atop crushed minted peas-fresh, flaky, and cooked to perfection. Equally impressive was their seafood chowder, rich without being overpowering, with a generous mix of mussels, haddock, and smoked bacon.
What sets The Landing apart is its commitment to quality sourcing. Most ingredients appear to be locally harvested or caught, which not only supports sustainability but delivers authentic regional flavour. The portion sizes strike a great balance-generous yet plated with elegance.
The interior design is bright and coastal-chic, featuring nautical accents and open-plan seating with large windows overlooking Beadnell Bay. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and attentive without being intrusive. For those with dietary restrictions, the team was more than willing to accommodate, which is a huge plus.
Compared to nearby restaurants, The Landing excels in offering a premium yet approachable dining experience. It’s perfect for both romantic evenings and relaxed family lunches. If you're in the Chathill area, this spot is absolutely worth a detour.
Pro tip: Book ahead during summer months as seating fills up quickly-especially for the evening service.
