Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Hi, we're sorry that you feel disappointed with our customer service, I presume that this was on Saturday, as we did have a lot of people arriving around closing time. I have spoken to our staff about it and it is a very difficult one...More

Quirky place reminds me of a old American diner with a modern twist with great shakes and ice cream. Service was friendly and quick. Would definitely recommend a fun place to visit and they also serve a great breakfast.

We tried several different flavours of milkshake and had breakfast one morning too. The milkshakes are fantastic, sitting down to breakfast was lovely due to the great food and nice American diner type seating. But more than anything the service is so friendly. We loved...it.More

When did I go? Been visiting this place for 65 years. It's always been a good experience and the Doddington farm makes excellent ice cream. We live in Wooler and a trip to the re-cycling centre is an excuse to stop at the Milk Bar...in for a huge bacon sandwich afterwards! Also, a long hike into the hills always seems to end at the Milk Bar for a cooling ice cream.More

We called in twice to the milk bar with our friends for coffee and a snack and sat outside in the take away area as we had our dog with us. On both visits the staff were great and we all enjoyed out drinks and...food. It’s a shame you can’t take your dog in as if the weather had been bad we would not have visited. However we hope to visit Wooler in a few months and I’m sure a visit to the milk bar is on the cards.More

What a place ! Hard to describe but it’s definitely a funky setting. Staring with hot sausage sandwiches we simply couldn’t fault them. To follow I had three scoops of their homemade ice cream. Caramel , chocolate and lemon meringue and my friend opted for...a fresh strawberry milk shake which was bursting with flavour. Can’t Waite to go back. Sit in or take- away.More
