The girl who served us was rude and couldn't have cared less. We raised an issue with the smell of damp where we were sitting, she did offer to move us but her attitude was appalling, she messed the drinks order up, she input malibu rather than archers, when the drink were brought over they said they didn't have any malibu which was never ordered. No apology. We all ordered steaks one was cooked wrong but she also did not have a clue which was which. Another tasted burnt. The food is extremely expensive for what it was, very small peace of steak was £30. I'm surprised they are still in business. We thought we would give this place one last try, last time all we could hear was the chef swearing and shouting at one of the servers. Again the food was poor.

Had a really lovely afternoon/early evening here. Staff are extremely professional and diligent. The food is excellent, hot and tasty. Second time here - the Sunday lunch was served without any stuffing. We explained to Richard (Mead) and without any fuss and straight away Richard appeared with a small plate of stuffing. The Sunday Lunch and Steak was excellent- Welldone the Chef!! Excellent service, responsive and we were felt “that people within this establishment cared”!! Welldone Richard and the rest of the Staff that looked after us. We will be back again…. With the Dog!! 😳🤣🤣🤗👍🏻😎

Don’t know about lockdown but the quality of the food they should be locked up! Sunday lunch no beef? Roast potatoes dry / extra for cauliflower cheese- like water. Starters- kofta more meat on a cockroach! Prawn cocktail 1 piece lettuce 6 prawns a piece of lemon? Without doubt the worse Sunday lunch ever.

Liked how when we went in they explained all the new procedures to us all helped as one of our party were slightly cautious. Even told us that all the chairs/tables had been sanitised even underneath, only down side was the limited food available that were sold out on the menu.

It looks lovely from the outside and and so we went with high expectations. It starts badly - we hung around for 10 minutes being ignored until we found someone to tell that we had a reservation. 45 minutes later the starter finally arrived ...! Anyway the food was nice but almost everything has an alcohol based theme to it which limits the choice for anyone that doesn’t need to have alcohol in their chicken pie! The staff who served us were very friendly.

Valentines meal, a few mistakes some of the order was not served with the meal had to wait for them, over all food was good,When I paid for the bill it’s was £20 more than it should be, £10 deposit wasn’t removed from the bill and the valentines set menu discounts were not added this took the bill £20 more, I noticed and told the staff and this was rectified but shouldn’t of happened in the first place.

I have visited here a few times with family for Sunday lunch. Overall it has always been very pleasant particularly if seated near the open fire on a cold day. The food is generally plentiful and of good quality, however the pies could do with a little more filling. It is not the cheapest place to eat but if you stick to the Sunday lunch you can't go wrong.

Just returned after a disappointing Valentines Meal. We opted for the steak pie x 2; sadly it was tasteless (due in the main to the fact there was not much meat in them and the carrots and veg were squishy), which was no doubt due to the fact they were frozen. The Camembert starter was reasonable but given we had to reorder the drinks as the waiter forgot them, the candle at the table was not lit and the table rose had seen better days the ambience we were hoping for was somewhat lacking. To add insult to injury when we settled the Bill we were asked to download an app for future discount as opposed to being asked how our meal or the experience was.

Met a friend here midweek for lunch. It was a cold day and it was lovely to see the fires lit, so we chose a table near to one of the fireplaces. It's not clear whether or not it's table service, but the waiting staff do come and take orders, as well as being able to order at the bar. I had the lunchtime fish and chips (goujons) and my friend had the camembert and chicken sandwich with chips. Both were nice, although disappointing that there was no tartar sauce available. The pub is quite large so although it was reasonably busy, it didn't feel crowded. Would definitely visit again and hopefully the menu in the summer may feature more 'sandwich' type options, rather than mainly hot food.

Popped in today as a friend recommend we try darlington pubs. Picked this one as it's got 4.2 stars. Yet I've got no idea how its managed to get that. The inside is amazing and two open fires just beautiful. The latte comes on a pointless huge plate that looks nice yes but the plate fills the table and we felt cramped. As for the food honestly I wouldn't bother it's way over priced and over cooked. Chicken was dry af and somehow they managed to mess up triple cooked chips how on earth do you mess that up. I will say the the garlic mayo is lovely.

Called in to try for a late lunch . Bar staff took order for drinks and food . One was fish and chips no problem . Second nut roast with veg and was advised probably no roast potatoes as might have been sold . Waited 20 min no drinks although a waiter had asked if we wanted to order and we said already done so at the bar he said he would get them ... he didn't and eventually we caught the barman who took the order who said he had forgotten ... he did apologise . Order eventually came nut roast was burnt around the edge which had been put on the plate upside down presumably to disguise it and the few roasties were hard on the outside and chewy in the middle must have been stood awhile or maybe used as returned from others . The few other vegetables were fine . The fish and chips were ok . If hadn't paid in advance and not been so hungry we would have returned the food and left so sadly won't be going back

We booked a table for 4, and were taken to our table. Table service was ok. We ordered 2 Hunter chickens and 2 Rump steaks. Both of our steaks were chewy. Grissle in the steak made it probably the worst I have eaten. Pretty disappointed after telling our friends that this was a good eatery. We have been there before and had no problem. The menu seemed smaller as well not much of a choice. We were asked if our meal was ok, about 30seconds after we started eating, and it was not till we started on the steak that we were disappointed. We then were given the sweet menu, which we decided upon, but the waitress never returned, so we paid the bill and left. Will look elsewhere in future.

I read the previous reviews with some trepidation especially as the hunters chicken seems to get a slating. Anyway me and my husband went today and ordered 3 courses. He had calamari to begin with - said it was lovely - I had the mushrooms - very nice. Hubby then had the steak pie which was huge. He said the steak was really tender and the mash and veg were also good. I had the aforementioned hunters chicken and you know what - it was lovely. Came with chips which I have to say weren't real chips. But they were OK. Finally we both had desserts - Eton mess for him and choc brownie for me. Both were yummy. With drinks the bill came to just over £50.00. This wasn't the best meal I've ever had but it was tasty and I enjoyed it. Both me and hubby agreed we would come again. The service was friendly and the pub looks nice.

We dined here on Easter Monday as a party of 5 adults. The restaurant was very quiet, with only 4 other tables however the service was very poor. After placing our order we waited ages for our meal, the two tables around us who had ordered about 15 minutes after us received their meals before us. When we raised this with our server he didn’t apologise and mumbled his answer that they’d be out soon. Upon the food arriving it was very good and the gentleman who brought over the final plates was very friendly, shame the same could not be said for our server! I had the steak sandwich which was cooked perfectly and the sweet potato fries were delicious! One of our party went to the bar to pay and waited ages with no acknowledgement despite there being two people behind the bar and no guests, only upon voicing her concerns did they eventually assist in taking payment. Whilst I can certainly appreciate that sometimes food can be delayed and service can be slow, there is no excuse for miserable staff and no apologies when things aren’t as they should be. As stated, the food was very good but will not be in a hurry to return.

Superb food - would highly recommend the sharing starter - mezze. A new addition since we were last there was a set of trivial pursuit cards on the table - excellent idea.

As always we had a very nice meal. I think that the only downside was being sat near the toilets and a long wait for food, however, the lady serving us was rushed off her feet and there did not seem to be many staff serving. When we voiced our concerns the staff couldnt do enough to help us and make amends. Well done for coping in difficult conditions. My suggestion would be to completely remove that seating area near the toilets and get more staff serving meals. Far too many people for one person to physically deal with.

Had lunch on Friday about 3.30 staff very friendly food hot and fresh and our small dog made welcome with fresh water bowl and treats. Lots of tables where we could sit with him on hard floor area. Only slight negative my wife’s fish pie was very small she doesn’t eat big portions but there was not much fish and even less mash but will definately go again.

Was in tonight as a table of 5 and had a really lovely time. Was very busy for a Monday night and yet we were still served quickly and without fuss. Staff were really lovely, especially a young blonde lady, sorry we didn’t get her name! Food was probably a bit over priced for what it was (my dad said his hunters chicken was a bit dry and the chips weren’t brilliant, but the fish cakes and rump steak were lovely and cooked to perfection!) but wouldn’t stop me coming back. Overall a lovely little meal out :-)

Very impressed with the staff and atmosphere but very disappointed at the choice of hand pulled beer. Also the bottled ale is vastly overpriced.

Dropped in here after a slightly fraught rail station pick-up. Lovely and cosy, dog friendly, friendly service (Dean behind the bar particularly helpful given it was also Valentine’s night and we’d turned up without a reservation, thanks Dean) food was tasty, (though I should take off half a point for frozen chips). Definitely worth a visit, wish it was our local.

Attended here for a meal with mum before going to the theatre. Staff friendly and lovely atmosphere. We both had the two courses option and both thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Will definitely be going again

I've driven past loads of these Vintage Inns but had never been in one before my visit to the Old Farm House. Inside, the theme of these places appears to be cosy, country boozer and it was a great place to sit and watch the fall out from the beast from the east.

I ordered the hunters chicken very unimpressed and as for the three times cooked chips, I think they meant three cooked chios as the rest were raw and too salty. Convinced they were just frozen chips. Wife had the chicken and mushroom pie with vegetables which she enjoyed. Staff very friendly so didn’t complain.

Went 3 times in December, had Xmas dinner twice. Very good. Then New Year’s Eve for the 3 courses for £30. That was excellent especially the belly pork. Service was good, staff friendly.

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Special menu for New Year’s Eve 3 courses for £30 which was good value for money. The belly pork was melt in the mouth and chocolate brownie was rich and sticky. Definitely recommend

Thought we would give it a try helping out local businesses during these times ordered two bacon/egg sandwiches and two latte coffees Coffee was really nice but the bacon sandwich wasn't worth the money it's the only time I have ever had a bacon sandwich with only one piece of bacon in it.... it's not as if the piece of bacon was large it wasn't Service was polite and friendly

It's a little dark but it's a 'spoons at the end of the day. The Mrs and I went after church on a budget. Great decision. The place was Halloween decorated and had some good food deals on. Highlight was trying a bit of her pasta which made me think I'll get some next time. 27/10/24
