The Griffin in Stockton-on-Tees

The Friday fish & chips are good, though the portions are getting smaller we have noticed

Great place. All staff were A1 class. We be there again very soon ****

Food was spot on and good value

Brilliant local pub . Excellent food , value , service

Served almost straight away, staff friendly and fast. Beer very tasty. Good atmosphere as always . Didn't have anything to eat maybe next time.

The Parmo platter is amazing ! Give it a try

Got a parmo platter which I shared with my son we struggled to finish it. Staff are lovely and a lovely small pub

Amazing meal for the 6 of us I rate it 10/10 excellent service excellent food xxx

Brilliant staff ,food and drinks

Service was great, served by Sheri who was very friendly and helpful. Food great value and delicious

4 of us just been here for tea food was fantastic really nice staff were really nice can't fault the place will defos be going back

After reading all the good reviews we ventured to you for probably the worst meal we’ve had in years after waiting nearly an hour for it to arrive the burger was burnt over cooked cheese the Parmo burnt on top chips luke warm wasn’t worth sending back as couldn’t wait another hour for it again

Best pub going. Friendly staff, lovely food and good prices.

Tried the Parmo Platter for the first time tonight between 2 of us, this would easily feed 3/4 hungry adults. Value for this was exceptional, the food was amazing and service outstanding. Would highly recommend visiting for the Parmo platter.

Went here today with my son for dinner and the food was lovely and the price was really good. Me son had bacon and cheese burger with proper homemade chips and I had sizzling chicken fajitas and a nice pint.

Great place gorgeous food value for money

Not only is the food in here by far the best home cooked meal in the area but the staff, and customers make everyone feel welcome. Whether it be your first stay or you have been there for year, you will soon feel at ease with the locals. Lounge area is total family friendly with an 8pm curfew for children (lets be fair who wants a child free night to hear children running riot for hours after). Childrens menu is an absolute bargain. Sunday Carvery is to die for but you have to be fast as its so unreal that its a sell out for both sit down and take away almost every week. Monday club is a great afternoon to be had by all. Incredible drink prices, games of pool, racing and football on tv, and the local banter at its absolute best. Weekends have DJ Andy on the decks and karaoke if you fancy a sing song. This pub is not only well ran but does an awesome amount to give back. Football team is thee best in town. Darts team. . Number 1. Need i say more. Come see for yourself By far the best pub in Thornaby

Food cold veg not cooked properly tasteless never fo again !!!!

Went with a friend for a drink ...Nice people

Great pub meals, the parmos were huge. Went with a group of 12 and everyone enjoyed their meals, no complaints 👌

We were in the Griffin yesterday and the meal and Atmospher was great, it is the best pub in the area love it.

Community pub, a little tired in places. Food hot and tasty.

Excellent customer service and lovely food, we enjoy each visit 🙂

Tasty food and good quantity. I highly recommend visiting.

Nice little boozer, friendly staff

Great local pub , friendly staff and food is always spot on! Sunday roasts, parmos, fajitas, lunchtime wraps, shepherd's pie , tried them all and never been disappointed . Excellent value for money 👍

Lovely friendly staff that make you welcome

Great pub great food.. Lovely staff.

The Griffin is a typical estate pub, the decor is lost somewhere late 70s early 80s. The layout is up and down like a fiddlers elbow. Somebody didn't get the memo about disabled access, which wasn't helped by miserable customers blocking access to/ from toilets and was too miserable/bone idle to move. The food was decent pub grub. One of the staff was friendly and helpful, the younger lass seemed like she was sucking a lemon! Went to the Griffin after seeing some posts from in-laws but that will be the last. If you want a decent meal and don't mind ancient carpets/furniture plus the added bonus of miserable punters then fill your boots.

Great food. Good portions. Good price. Great service.

The griffin is locals pub, serves Sunday lunches beers and lagers it's situated in a housing estate and a park over the road.

Food was lovely and warm wait was a bit long but we were in 15+ party

Went for a walk first to basseton woods and horse shoe bend then popped into the Griffin for a coffee decided to get something to eat i got a burger my wife got a tuna mayo toastie our friends got fish chips and two more friends got ham egg chips and scampi and chips all the food was absolutely lovely well worth the visit

Excellent Sunday carvery. Glutenfree friendly fantastic value

Food is really good and staff are brilliant and friendly, draught beers are pretty good but could be better. Draught beers in other local pubs seem to be a bit colder and slightly better tasting. If they get the beer tasting a bit better (colder and sharper) then I would gladly become a regular customer.

Lovely staff food plenty and really good and a good price

Didt try the food but the atmosphere and bar staff where great

Played darts and had a few drinks. Good atmosphere, service and customers.

Fabulous as always there food is amazing , the price id great too

Lovely service and staff, minging toilets - I expect a bit of carnage on a bank holiday weekend but wasn't expecting a deep end and a shallow end in the gents

Nice food bar staff are friendly

What an unbelievable place!! So Great!!

Great staff and the food is top-notch. Sunday roast is best in the area.

Bland food. Decent portion though.

Banging Sunday lunch,lovely stuff

Staff are friendly and wecominh

Great staff always ready to help quick service apart from the prices going up again

Quality food at a fair price, where from Darlington and when visiting family we go there for our dinners and have never been disappointed. Friendly staff, nice pub atmosphere and Sunday dinners are really nice.

Brilliant food and drinks reasonable, recommended,100%

Good Sunday roast, friendly place, good atmosphere

Party of 8 had Christmas fayre on Saturday 8th Dec. Everything excellent. Good food nice and hot, great service and friendly staff throughout. We were so impressed we returned the following weekend for a family birthday with a party of 10 plus a child. Meals and service were excellent again. Thanks to all Griifin Staff. Special thanks to Linda and Sheriden for fitting us in at such short notice.

Very friendly. Not flash but a good Sunday carvery and a warm welcome. The function room has recently been refurbished and look really nice. Everything you need in a local.

Wine is warm. Beer is flat. Don't close the kitchen at 7 when you advertise food until 8pm.

Delicious Sunday carvery. Excellent service by lovely friendly staff

It's what a pub should be, like a home from home. Really friendly welcoming staff and customers. You may arrive as a stranger but you will leave as a friend. Five stars is not enough

Can't beat the Sunday lunch excellent value and so yummy

Well the phrase "its an ill wind that blows no good" fits our visit as it was after a friends funeral were we all gathered..The draught beer was the best I have tasted in years..Staff gave top notch service..Buffet food was so good and well served lots of choice both hot and cold..Please pass my thanks to everyone at The Griffen, for a very enjoyable visit..We intend to return and sample from what looks a great value menu..

£8, can't go wrong. Chips are lush and apparently they will box up anything you can't eat for later. Madri and Stella on tap and friendly staff. Good estate pub.

Food was pipping hot ,fresh salad ,lovely friendly staff can't do enough for you ,good prices even allowed us to box up left overs, onions rings are frozen I expected home made the only let down 😊

Give it ago first time excellent food

Sunday lunch was incredible! 3 meats to choose from, all the veg you like, the roasties, mash and gravy were lovely. Fed 3 of us for £20! Amazing value I will be back!

Linda the landlord refused to serve us on Friday evening JUST because we are foreigners in work wear. But she happily server british blokes in work throusers. Why is the landlord rasist here? We spend a huge amount of money here during the week and we get kicked of on Friday just because Lidna the Landlord got "her days"?

Hey Linda S U C K M Y B A L L S

Horrible place, filled with druggies, rather go to roundel

Went in the function room, looks like it's been refurbished, was very clean, the buffet was really tasty, would recommend

V dark/dull in the function room, needs some bright LED lighting.

The food was cheap for a reason it was awful. Frozen food from Tesco tastes better.

Very clean and comfortable, quick service even on a Saturday evening. Enjoyed my visit.

Great Sunday lunch! Went again last night, the four of us had the special fish and chips with peas (either garden or mushy) £9.00 for two!!!! The drinks are a good price too! Great value and excellent food, fastly becoming our place to go.

Go every week for tea with friends. Food very nice and very good value for money. I would really recommend this place

Nice friendly staff and decent pint of beer.

What a fantastic Sunday roast. Thankfully the staff squeezed us in, the food was delicious and what good value. Will definitely be going back.

Good food for a good price. Very accommodating, was able to call ahead a get the backdoors opened for disabled access. Will definitely go back.

Been to a few local places this week for a meal. The Griffin outshines them all. Well done to the chef. Welcoming staff.

One of the better pubs in the area for food. The staff are friendly and the Sunday carvery is excellent. The decor is a little tired and the outside could do with a coat of paint in places, but overall it's OK.

Lovely service lovely food and affordable 🥰

Cavary was unreal staff are friendly and helpful

Food was lovely and good value for money

Excellent food and drinks friendly and helpful staff

The Griffin pub opened its doors in the early 1970s and has gone on to be one of the best local pubs in the great town of Thornaby - on- tees. Good food, excellent quality beer and fine wines, music and games nights and a perfect Sunday roast are available. (CHECK DATES FOR MUSIC AND GAMES NIGHTS)

Staff is always lovely and so are the parmos 😊

Staff are very pleasant and offer very good service .

Very friendly staff and good value Sunday carvery. It gets busy so maybe best to book in advance.
