My wife happened to notice the Sunday Lunch offer on the back of the menu we were sitting so close under the specials board that we hadn't seen it. Excellent choice. Good beef slices and a spectacular variety and quantity of vegetables. The price was good too. Humbles deserves to be busy.

My wife and I go to Seaham a few times a year and we always go to Humbles. It doesn't change! It's always lovely! The owner had a day off yesterday but the staff were still great. Very friendly and attentive. We had a charming young lady who looked after us. The only change for us is that after 45 years of vegetarianism I have now lapsed (that's another story). This gave me an opportunity to try the whole menu. It's all produced in house and it's great. I had the Lasagne and my wife had the fish and chips. Super taste and excellent value. I would have liked to have tried the apple pie, but I couldn't eat any more! Warm chocolate fudge appeared on the other side of the table and that was well received!

The food was nice but there was hardly any pastry on the pie and the chicken burger came with normal chips even though it was supposed to come with sweet potato chips. The pastry and the chips weren't big issues and we cleared out plates. When the waitress came to clear out plates and asked if everything was ok we said yes but I did mention that the burger had come with the wrong chips. She apologised and said she would tell them in the kitchen. I saw her tell the owner who just laughed obviousley not realising I could see her. The food is overpriced for what you get and we wont go again because of the owners bad attitude. The young lady who served us was lovely.

Homemade Yorkshire pudding and the gravy has loads of bit of meat floating in it! This place never fails to deliver and we can’t wait for June to come so we can eat in again x
