The Waiting Room was established by Jenny Harding in 1986, and remains a homely, family-run neighbourhood restaurant at 9 Station Road in Eaglescliffe. The restaurant occupies a Victorian terraced house, with a relaxed cosy front room, and a bright airy conservatory, which can accommodate 50 diners, private parties and is where we've staged Waiting for Sunday - our weekly live music and arts events for over 25 years. The Waiting Room now also includes The Other Room, a cool community bar in the old chemist shop next door, and vvroom a vegetarian takeaway and wood-fired pizza parlour next door at number 7. We have a nice sunny front street-side garden, and The Waiting Room is now a licensed wedding venue too. See our 'blog post no. 1' for more.


The Waiting Room has put on weekly gigs, arts events and happenings on Sunday nights for over 20 years.
