The Zetland - Carta

Not open! Tried to visit for lunch today but it’s not open and covered in scaffolding. Would be good if it’s website or google entry had indicated this.

Passed this this diamond on the way the station, busy so popped in for a pint, full of boro fans watching the fa cup match before the game. a really nice refreshing pint with some irish stew was just what the doctor ordered ... lovely staff and just a diamond

Trip Advisor stated that this place was temporarily closed (13th April 2023) NOT TRUE. Very much open and really good food . Had the three course menu which had good choice for all courses and the food was excellent. Great value too. You won't be disappointed. Ver carta

Very friendly hands on service. The owner/chef Philip personally checked that everything was ok for us throughout the meal. The food was amazing with good sized portions for those with a good appetite. I noticed Philip also offered a more tailored meal for a family who had a young child with them. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back.

Was so grateful to the fabulous manager of the Zetland Brasserie today. We only had a short time before catching a train from over the road and he just said 'don 't worry. Take a seat and I 'll get you our smoked salmon Asian slaw with some Irish soda bread as it 's quick but really tasty and filling with the bread '. He wasn 't wrong and it was absolutely perfect. Superb experience. Thank You for taking such great care of us. Very much appreciated. Daniel

Came for a drink last Sunday and caught sight of the dinning room , so booked for dinner the following Saturday. The staff were brilliant like chatting with old friends . But OMG that dinning room sheer candle lit class. It's stunning and the whole evening was great. I asked where the artesian bread came from. It was delicious. Turns out it's made by the chief on the premises. If you want a relaxing drink or a stunning candle lit meal this is the place to try. Ver carta

Our friend Clive strongly recommended we come here for his birthday, and we were delighted that we did. We were led into the beautifully decorated dining room, which was once a ladies' lounge. The intricate tiling work was truly impressive, and the overall ambiance was enhanced by the soft lighting, without any harsh fluorescent bulbs. The manager prepared a delicious fish mash for our group of five, and we were all impressed by how tasty it was. If you have the chance, you should definitely make a trip to this restaurant.

The Zetland has just fully reopened after major building works and my wife and I were delighted as ever to be able to eat here again. As always the reception from Philip was warm and friendly. The food choices were as good as ever. The only criticism was that the chicken supreme which is my wife’s favourite was not available as they were awaiting supplies. A pity as my wife reckons it’s the best she’s ever tasted! We had a relaxed meal occasionally watching the workers completing the improvements to the outside are and railway station. All in all a great experience.

There are numerous reasons to visit the Zetland. The food is exceptional, with a creative and thoughtful menu that showcases the chef's expertise. My wife and I savored every bite of our three-course meal and would highly recommend the Zetland based solely on the quality of the food. It is undoubtedly the top choice in Middlesbrough. Additionally, I suggest stopping by for a drink or meal to admire the stunning decor, especially the impressive Victorian tiling in the back room. The Zetland is truly a hidden treasure. Finally, Philip Christie is a delightful host, offering a warm and accommodating experience. I highly recommend this restaurant. Ver carta
