Overlooking the historic pit yard and the Accessible Play Area inspired by Woodhorn’s industrial heritage, the Winding House Café offers a range of light refreshments, sandwiches and toasties featuring Northumbrian food and suppliers.
There is plenty of indoor seating and a covered outdoor seating area which is a great space to relax while keeping an eye on the children or if you have the family dog with you. Around the outdoor seating are planters that are lovingly cared for by the Age UK Northumberland Gardening Group, with a range of plants, herbs, fruit and vegetables growing.
Inside the café features a specially commissioned artwork “The Making of a Man” by artist Nina Wakbayashi, capturing a young lad’s first shift underground in the Japanese manga cartoon style.
The menu is made up of a mix of homemade produce and locally sourced products from Made in Northumberland suppliers. We are delighted to be able to use them in our dishes and include them on our menus.
If you have a food allergy or specific dietary requirement please ask and the Café team will be delighted to advise you on alternatives available. We are always looking for ways to improve our menu to accommodate our visitors needs. If you have any suggestions please speak to a member of the team during your visit or email hello@museumsnorthumberland.org.uk

“A lovely museum that will need several visit to try and see everything. Loved the café with top quality food – I enjoyed soup and a sandwich for £7.50 deal with a pot of tea for under £10. Loved the Pitmen paintings – and the free tour at 2pm!”
