The Travelling Man

Ratings and reviews, location and contact.

Having really enjoyed Sunday dinner takeaways from here during lockdown, it was nice to have the chance as a group of four to visit and eat there in person. The weather was good which meant a small wait outside before getting a table. Obviously ok... in good weather but not if it’s raining hard. The staff had everything well organised and arrows and information on rules are on the walls and internal TVs. Obviously it’s not as natural as it used to be (you can’t go up to the bar and order your own or extra drinks, and your advised not to leave your seat unless you need the toilet) and I was very surprised to see heavy dust all along the bar edge but the food was spot on as normal, plenty, hot and tasty. Two mince and dumplings, (crusty top dumpling), chicken parmo with chips (would have liked thicker chips ideally) and a hot shot burger, all this with 4 drinks and a bill of only £20.48. More

We’d ordered 5 meals almost as soon as we realised the Travelling Man was doing SundayMeals with a pick up appointment time. Firstly, the pick up went fine, the meals were there and ready. Unfortunately they came served in loose polystyrene box’s with the gravy... already served on the meals so the carrier bag had a pool in the bottom. We all agreed that we preferred our gravy served seperately and that the meals could have been served in foil topped containers. Saying that, and apart from a missing Yorkshire pudding the meals were lovely. Beef, thickly sliced and plentiful, chicken, gammon and sausage too, all served with excellently cooked 4 veg, yorkshire and one big roast potato. Apart from containers and gravy it would have got 5/5. More

totally agree with containers and have been changed forthwith,hope to see you soon

After another visit to a local hospital I decided to treat my children to their Sunday lunch, and we came to The travelling man... We have not been disappointed..from the starter which was beautiful to the main which was massive and tasty to the dessert.... The staff have this place ran like a well oiled machine, we waited no more than 5 minutes between courses. Everything was gorgeous. More

thank you so much

Went for a family meal. Food was nice enough though only one (albeit large) roast potato was a bit disappointing. Big portion of everything else though. Left feeling stuffed. Only real gripe is the mens toilet. It absolutely stinks. Whatever's going on in those drains... needs investigating. Truly stomach turning. More

Thanks Mick,pipe broke but now all sorted

A really enjoyable meal here with my wife. I mean this in a good way, it’s nothing too fancy, just proper, hearty cooking. The two mains, chicken with pancetta and leek and a really generous mince and dumplings were delicious. The desserts too, like old... school puss, and again in a good way. There are also loads of friendly staff and social distancing measures are taken seriously. The price too is very reasonable. Hard to find a flaw. More

We ordered 2 beef Sunday lunches at 11am for a 2pm pick up. We’ve used this before and was really happy to despite a small wait to take home our piping hot meals. The pub was full of diners as normal, I noticed they did... daily specials Mon to Fri at £6.99. Both our takeaways had plenty of beef, lots of veg, roastie and yorkie pud. Great quality More

This place is ideal for a reasonably priced meal and there is a good selection of vegetarian options. The pub is welcoming and the staff are friendly and really efficient. My meal was good although the vegetarian burger was a bit dry, it would have... been nicer with a bit of salad. The deserts were pretty good with a nice sized portion of custard, unfortunately the apple pie pasty was a bit sloppy. More

We’ve been to The Travelling Man a few times over the years and have normally had a good experience. We arrived to be told there’d be a delay as they had a booking of 30 due so the main dining room would be full. We... were told a 20min wait but it was only 5 or 10 mins before we were seated in the small room. Maybes due to the arrival of the group but we were served our main meals, piping hot within minutes. We didn’t feel rushed at all and the staff were great. The meals (roast of the day) was lovely, enough to make you full. We would prefer to have had a gravy boat as opposed to the meals being served with gravy all ready on and would be nice to have had beer mats too. More

94 year old birthday and his wish was Mince & Dumplings Contacted the pub to confirm it was still on the Menu and was informed no booking required Arrived at the restaurant and were shown to a convenient table that the Manager “Crooksy” had prearranged... I ordered from an extensive menu Mince and Dumplings for the birthday “boy” and Chinese Chicken Curry for me. The efficiency of the kitchen staff was commendable as the food came very quickly. Large portions The old chap defied the laws of physics and.consumed the generous dish with gusto. Got to also mention the waiting staff who were very amenable, courteous and attentive The impossible happened and the old fella decided the Bailey’s Cheesecake was needed to top off the dinner. Got to say I was very impressed at the pudding list and only wished I was able to squeeze one in. The presentation of the Cheesecake was impressive and it was demolished in style Big thank you to Alan and all the staff on making an old man’s night memorable Well done More

SO WELCOME,THANKS FOR THE LOVELY REVIEW

Home cooked fries chips were the highlight of the hunters chicken for my husband. I ordered mince and dumplings off the specials menu and it was enormous considering it was a lunch menu. Both high quality sand steaming hot! The portion size was huge as... well worth the money for that and taste. Met 2 of the girls and both were welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend and will 100% be returning. So excited to eat I didn't take a before so attempted to include the specials menu. More

Thank you so much

My wife and I always visit here if we are needing a cheap, homemade and satisfying Sunday dinner. The staff are fantastic, friendly and never leave you waiting. The food is always tasty and comes in generous portions.

Visited The Travelling Man on several occasions now trying various things off the menu. Today was the fish combo with a Side of curry sauce, the partner had Chinese chicken curry. Both meals were fantastic, the fish was incredible. Chips are absolutely mega! Guinness was... cold and customer service is fantastic. Can’t knock it! More

thank you for your kind comments,so glad you enjoyed it

We came here as a family for my father in law's 80th birthday. I have to admit I was a little apprehensive as the prices were very cheap. Omg the food was delicious and so tasty. The portion sizes were huge. I had the best... onion rings ever. We all chose something different and everyone of the family were so happy and very satisfied. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Couldn't do enough to make you feel welcome. We will definitely be coming here again. More

Went with the other half for a spontaneous lunch, arrived and carpark pretty much full thought not going to get seat. Pleasantly greeted at the door and advised there was a table but a wait on food, asked to take a seat while table was... being cleaned. Ordered drinks and swiftly arrived. Food order taken and again swiftly arrived. We had starter and main each and were seated served and paid the bill within an hour! Now if that’s what you call a wait on food then I’m more than happy to wait for the fantastic food they serve! Well done guys and gals! Have a very happy Christmas we will be back in the new year (if not before) More

Five of us ate here this week and have to say everything was delicious. Huge portions and piping hot when it arrived. We all ate different items but everything was delicious. Staff are all great and nothing was a bother. The bottle of Shiraz was... very nice also. More

I cannot praise this pub enough. The staff are all lovli, smiley and welcoming. Had me old favoirite briskett and mash. If u want good home cooked meals this is the place for you 🥰🥰

used to go to The Travelling Man regular but as it started to get more people getting in the standard of food dropped which is a shame as we used to love going there week days as well as weekends and it was ideal to take the family for Sunday lunch so sadly wont be going back not

Roadside pub just outside West Boldon Village, not far from Boldon Business Park. The bar had one handpull with a rotating cask ale but this has been removed. Meals are served daily from an extensive menu, including specials. Every Sunday evening there is a quiz and card bingo evening with a free buffet. The entrance to the pub is to the rear via the car park. There is also outside seating to the rear and side of the pub.
