"We wanted to visit for lunch with some rather elderly friends and we were disappointed that they don’t take bookings as our friends would find it hard to wait for a table. However the staff were very helpful when we contacted them on Messenger and said they would certainly have a table for us at the time we wanted, 1pm. We turned up on the dot of 1:00 and the restaurant was almost empty, so no problems with seating! The menu was varied and we all found something we liked the sound of and ordered by 1:10. There was only one lady taking orders and making drinks (non alcoholic only, unfortunately now why? and we only saw one other staff member, I guess somebody else was in the kitchen? However, although our drinks arrived fairly quickly, no food arrived until 2:00., then one order was wrong! It was quickly corrected and the food was nice, although the hollandaise sauce on my eggs Benedict was oddly sweet. But fifty minutes to produce four meals, one being a sandwich and two others which must have been already cooked, is just daft, especially when there were only about five tables occupied at the most. We really wanted to like this place, as we think it’s aims are excellent, but it really can’t expect people to return unless it can provide a better service."

I read the reviews beforehand so I was expecting more. Menu very limited, food very average. Sorry but I will not be returning.

Went here as quite a big group of friends and I couldn’t praise it enough. The food was great and the staff were more than happy to help with anything we needed. Lovely lovely staff.

This restaurant is perfect for a professional business lunch. The meals were well-cooked and the staff was very attentive and accommodating. It's an ideal spot for professionals to discuss numbers over a delicious meal.

5 stars! The best brunch in Middlesbrough! The food is outstanding and the service is unbelievable, nothing is too much trouble. The restaurant atmosphere is perfect and it is spotless. The value of the food is amazing. After visiting many restaurants for breakfast and brunch in Middlesborough, Yarm, Norton, and North Yorkshire, The Folk in the Road stands out by far for us. I cannot stress enough how much you need to visit The Folk in the Road! Visualizza piatti

Looked for pre theatre eats and alighted on this because of the ethos and good reviews. Although preparing for some works parties we were made welcome and drinks were served quickly. Reduced menu cos Christmas but still good choice. We had the sharing antipasta starter which was lovely and then fish and chips for me and the famous parmo for my companion. Both were rated excellent, finished with coffee and the bill was most reasonable. When next in Mboro.........

Visited Fork in the Road with a colleague during a stay in Middlesbrough. I was blown away with the standard of service and food. Excellent shared starter platter followed by Lamb Shank for me and the famous Chicken Parmo for my colleague all washed down with a great priced bottle of Rioja. The chef Jamie and the waitress Gemma were both graduates of the Fork Academy and were just terrific. I would recommend Fork to anyone looking for a great meal that supports a great cause.

"We started with the Alkaline Nachos (£10.95), which featured nachos topped with marinated baked quinoa, fried beans, cashew cream, guacamole, pineapple salsa, and pickled red cabbage. The dish was drizzled with smoked cashew cheese. They were delightful, sweeter than any nachos I had before, and had a nice tangy twist. Next, we tried the BBQ Tacos (£9.50), which included shredded carrot in an alkaline BBQ sauce served in a crispy corn shell filled with fried beans and guacamole, along with pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage, accompanied by a side salad. These were hands down the best BBQ tacos I've had in the north. The Thai Buddy Bowl (£10.95) was another standout dish. It featured orange teriyaki chickpea tofu, surrounded by pineapple "fried" quinoa, purple coleslaw, a Thai side salad with almond and ginger dressing, and quinoa falafels with mango chutney. The blend of flavors was incredible, and this was my favorite dish—something I could happily eat several times a week. I plan to return just for this dish! We also tried the Thai Wrap (£9.95), which contained quinoa and drippy butter falafels wrapped in a soft tortilla with mango chutney, coleslaw, and kimchi—served with a Thai side salad, almond and ginger dressing, and pineapple quinoa. The combination of ingredients in this falafel wrap was unexpected but fantastic. Once again, it was sweeter than I had anticipated. For dessert, we enjoyed the Pink Pitaya Acai Bowl (£5.50), a fruity and smooth blend with celestial blueberries, bananas, kiwi, and coconut—perfect for breakfast! It was a real power breakfast. We paired our meal with Immunity Boost Juice (£4.00 each) made from strawberry, pear, apple, and lemon juice—it was refreshing and invigorating. The Tropical Sunrise Smoothie (£4.50) blended papaya, mango, orange, banana, coconut, maple, and cashew, maintaining the unique flavors of each fruit beautifully. Lastly, we had the Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie (£4.50), featuring strawberries, banana, peanut butter, maple syrup, and lemon balm. It might sound odd, but it worked perfectly— the earthy peanut butter provided a lovely texture and taste that complemented the sweetness of the fruit. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that was well worth the wait."
