About us
Bistro 23 is located in the heart of beautiful Alnmouth, a picturesque Northumbrian coastal village on the River Aln estuary. We are a small family run business which has been operating since 2003.
The Bistro opens selected evenings depending on season.(online bookings only for evenings)
The Tearoom is open 6 days a week (open 7 days during school holidays). View our Tearoom menu.
Our aim is to deliver the very best produce, flavours and hospitality Northumberland has to offer, sourced from local farms, rivers, coast & gardens.
Due to a large number of dogs visiting Alnmouth & lack of space we have NO DOGS allowed policy.
We look forward to welcoming you.
