The Darlington in North Somerset

Really nice food .... very good service.

Room a little tired could do with redecoration. food was lovely and hosts fantastic also great location if your flying out of Bristol airport as only 5 minutes from silver zone parking. We would stay again

Warm welcome, great service, delicious food

Location, great! Rooms and all around premises needs a lot of work!! Food is pretty awful and the smell of old oil reaches you from the car park! It can’t decide if it’s a pub or an Indian restaurant and neither are Good! It’s not very clean and it’s living off whoever renovated it quite some time ago and hoping it lates but it’s past it!

The bathroom is down the hall however it is only for your use. Really handy location for bristol airport

Terrific meal. Peri peri chicken was perfect. Great friendly welcome and good prices

Stayed in the loft room complet with on suite. Room was large with a comfy king-size bed. Only a couple of miles from Bristol Airport silver zone parking.

Unfortunately this place could be amazing but it just lacks that extra special touch. Place looks half finished inside, rooms smelt of dog and is very tired with thread bare carpets and a teeny tv. Bed was not comfortable let alone deluxe! Food was definitely a microwaved curry and Iceland style frozen chicken skewers with jar sauce poured over!!! Wouldn't stay here again which is a shame because it's a fab location and a wasted business opportunity! :/

Our AirBnB is near the pub and we got a chance to dine in without reservations on a Friday night. The place looks amazing! We ordered the Fish and chips which is remarkably delicious. It all comes with a salad, peas and coleslaw. The service is fast and it was the perfect food we need after a long drive. Definitely a place to try when in Bristol and they offer different kinds of cuisine which I think is also in good quality considering there are a lot of people eating in the area. 👍

Stayed nearby, first visit to this little pub. On a busy road, seemed basic inside with the tables and chairs. Service was good, wine good and the food was amazing.

Great location, fantastic food, and the rooms are very pleasant. Some rooms have en-suite bathrooms, and our shower facilities were just along the corridor via a lockable door. This was no inconvenience, though. All in all, a very nice establishment.

Booked a table for evening meals prior to flights from Bristol Airport ,arrived way earlier than we booked, and were accommodated without any hassle.we all had sirloin steaks cooked to perfection, good service ,lovely pub.highly recommended.

Was very noisy and our room didn't have our own bathroom Food was ok Wouldn't stay there again

A great place to stay if flying early Am from Bristol Airport. The room was huge and well presented with an en suite shower room and a boutique type bath at the end of the bed (I guessing it was for the romantics) we never used it. Very reasonable pricing and ideal for the airport just a couple of miles away.

Very clean rooms ,great staff lovely food, great stop for the airport

Stopped in for a quick one before airport parking. Was very friendly and thinking it would be a good overnighter before a flight next time x

Best place iv stay in yet .very nice food very friendly People and not bad on prices :) love it here and will be coming back :)))

Stayed here for two nights whilst working locally at a festival job, a very comfortable place, very typical of the area, with great service. Highly recommended

A Google Maps search for nearby food whilst awaiting a delayed arrival into BRS. What a great find ! Very clean and tidy, excellent friendly service, good food.

We didn't stay but next time we will but had a lovely meal and enjoyed drinks in the pub garden.

We stayed overnight as we were flying to Spain early hours .everything was good about the place

Stayed here night before flying from Bristol Airport! Highly recommend!!

Lovely accommodation, you can see it is in a transformation. Rooms need a bit of update but nice and quiet. Staff were accommodating and pleasant. Helped us with a luggage and taxi. Excellent food no complaints. The Vegan Penang and Butter chicken was awesome.

Wow, what wonderful accommodation and what lovely staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious, the staff were very friendly, and the accommodation was immaculate. We originally booked somewhere else, which was less than accommodating, and we then stumbled across the Darlington Arms, we stopped in for originally dinner, but decided then to stay there instead, we are so glad we did. Parking is safe and we left our car there for three nights. Airport taxi was offered which picked us up and then collected on our returning flight. Everything was perfect. A huge thank you. 😊

Great stop for the airport for the night. Rooms are undergoing a re ferb but i had an old room and was still happy with how clean and fresh it was. Food is amazing!

Stayed here before our flight from Bristol airport, location perfect,just a short drive to the airport. Room well appointed and great for a one night stay. Food was amazing, we both had the sirloin steak, cooked to perfection, home made onion rings with perfectly crisp batter.

Stayed a couple of nights while working in the area.would highly recommend. Very friendly, comfortable rooms and fantastic food

We stayed at the Darlington last night (6th July) and enjoyed an exceptionally good meal, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. Compliments to the chef and the extremely friendly and professional bar person / host. This inn Has set the bar at a very high standard for our future stops before Bristol Airport.

Opted to stay here before our early flight from Bristol. Food is great, rooms are fabulous. Few miles out of Bristol airport

Terrible curry very expensive and overpriced stopped on way to airport wish we’d carried on really not good large portions frozen chips disappointing

This place is right on the road, two miles short of Bristol Airport, with plentiful free parking. It is large, clean and airy. Service is brisk and friendly. We had chicken tikka skewers and a sirloin steak and both were excellent and portions generous. Lots of lovely Indian options on the menu, which appeared popular choices with the regulars. We will definitely eat here again if staying overnight before an early flight. We are staying at an airport hotel but will stay here next time as cost is equivalent/lower and food better. Highly recommended.

The food was great! Big portions and veeery tasty! 😊 will definitelly come back in the future. 10/10

Stopped here as very close to airport and offered a proper home cooked meal. I had gammon which was delicious as were the homemade onion rings. We were not diappointed. Very reasonably priced in nice clean restaurant area. Nice waiter. plentyof parking and 5 minutes from the airport.

Just back in our cozy double bedroom after a lovely meal and before our early flight tomorrow. Check in here was quick efficient and friendly. The room is absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. Good selection of teas including decaf. The dining experience was equally pleasurable. We shared a baked camembert (garlicky, delicious with lovely bread) accompanied by an excellent tomato/ chilli chutney. Mains of Cumberland sausage & mash, perfect defense for a cold, sleety evening and Cornish mussels in white wine satisfied the need for comfort. Excellent bottle of rioja, surprisingly deep and rich at £18 complemented the food admirably. Having subsequently been roundly trounced at the pool table, solace was sought, and gratified by steamed chocolate pudding with custard. Oh my schooldays!! I have missed you so much. Perfect ending. And now to sleep in the very comfy, warm bed. A wonderful place to stay to start or finish a holiday requiring proximity to Bristol Airport.

Perhaps a bit above average but not enought be very good. At peak holiday times, you need to reserve tables for dinner as it get crowded with people staying around the area the night before they fly from Bristol airport.

Really nice pub! Staff were fantastic and accommodating! Penny made us all feel welcome. Cheers for all the Pork Scratchings 😄

We had lunch in this lovely pub before going to the airport. We were greeted by a very friendly lady who suggested we sat by the fire with our drink whilst we looked at the menu which was great as it was a cold day . Our food was cooked fresh and was absolutely delicious , best hand cooked chips I’ve had . Would recommend sausage and mash and ham , egg and chips . Great value for money and would definitely return.

The service was excellent and the food was great with generous portions. Less than a mile from Bristol Park and Fly, if you’re commuting it’s well worth a visit.

Food was amazing! Large portion, batter was good and fish was tasty. Chips were hand made wedges which were crisp and not greasy. Mushy peas were best I have had! Great service too!

Visited with family, the staff seemed very unorganised and wrong food brought out then correct was very slow between each of our dishes, service wasn’t great, seems as if it’s staffed by all new staff who don’t quite know know everything works. Wouldn’t visit again if had other options. Disappointing as previous reviews lead you to think its better than it is.

We would highly recommend the Darlington Arms, just come back from a nights stay. We were greeted by a very friendly member of staff who promptly showed us to our rooms. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. The breakfast was superb.

Had a few hours in Bristol so took a Uber to here as seen on tripadvisor and so happy we did had soup for starters which was amazing then onto mains a variety of meals 1 had haddock 1 ribeye steak 2 with burgers everybody thought it was amazing meal I had half the ribeye and shared the haddock with wife one of best meals I ever had lovely place as well will come back
