Reviews The Maltings Cafe Bar

Lovely place to come for a morning coffee as we did. The scones were perfect. Decaf coffee is available. Parking outside was impossible on a later afternoon visit, but there were spaces at this time. Table service. Good atmosphere. Strongly recommended. Toilets are downstairs, but there is a lift. They were very clean.

Several local cafes seem to shut on a Monday so, wandering round the walls with a visiting friend, we decided to try here for lunch. It was delightful, with a small everyday menu supplemented by a host of specials. Excellent food and service and a lovely view over the town. We even got a scone to take away.

I’m always happy to visit the Maltings Kitchen when I return home from university! The food has been a favourite of mine for a long time now! It’s a nice friendly, comfortable atmosphere with a great view out across onto the River Tweed! The specials board is ever changing which means lots of different foods to try! The soups are always really different and always sound delicious!! I tend to have the haddock goujons, the fish of which is sourced locally! (I adore the coleslaw as well). With a homemade tartar and twice fried chips, it’s very tasty! I really do love the homemade ice cream though. If you have room for pudding then definitely try it!

Found this little gem of a place after walking along the harbour walls to the lighthouse. The staff are super friendly and sat us by the window, views across the Tweed and rooftops. Food is excellent, we had steak sandwich and homemade Scotch egg with haggis, all freshly made. Will definately be back

After a nice welcome to the Maltings Cafe Bar we were offered a window seat with a lovely view looking out over the rooftops of Berwick upon Tweed. We looked through the menus and staff also pointed out the vast specials menu too, after detailed staff recommendations we made our choices - Haddock Goujons with ‘Twice’ cooked chips, Tartare sauce, Coleslaw and salad with a herb dressing for me, my partner chose the Brie, Bacon and Cranberry Ciabatta Sandwich with salad and also ‘twice’ cooked chips, orders made as our drinks promptly arrived while we admired the view. There was a lovely ambiance in the airy cafe bar and a lovely buzz from contented customers. Our food arrived after a short wait and it was all delicious, lightly battered Goujons that melted in my mouth complimented beautifully with the Tartare sauce and the chips, crispy on the outside and soft in the centres with creamy slaw and a delicious herb dressing on the green leaves, my partner’s Ciabatta was also very tasty and ‘moreish’ and we both cleared our plates. We washed it all down with a creamy Latte and a Cappuccino. After a brief chat with staff about the surrounding area we squared up and headed off very contented and happy pausing briefly while a bunch of local schoolchildren all dressed up in suits and ties gathered in the foyer for a photograph before heading into the cinema below to watch the latest ‘Minions’ film. A very enjoyable experience- thank you!
