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 to the rear, 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 'community' for more
The Waiting Room has put on weekly gigs, arts events and happenings on Sunday nights for over 20 years.
