Buena comida recién cocinada. Cálido. Precios muy razonables. Ojalá hicieran mercancía. Con orgullo luciría una camiseta de Three squares.

Frequent this place at least every week for many reasons! Fantastically priced and fab food! Have always enjoyed everything I have ordered and never once had an issue. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Definitely one of the best cafes in Darlington and definitely the most affordable too.

Popped in for the first time in years as I fancied a bacon sandwich. The service was quick and the staff friendly. The sandwich was freshly cooked and had plenty of bacon and didn't disappoint 😋

A small but very clean cafe (seats about 20 & 5 star rated) situated on skinnergate darlington. Opted for large breakfast £10 which included tea/coffee. It had everything & anything. Could’nt fault it. Very friendly & accommading staff. My first visit but wont be my last. Highly reccomended

BEST FULL ENGLISH ive ever had and at SUCH AN AFFORDABLE PRICE . i go here every week (sometimes more than once) and when im not able i feel withdrawl symptoms. such LOVELY STAFF who make an effort to make their customers feel comfortable. they know most their customers by name and make conversation, even memorising their orders. id recommend the full english and the egg butty. the hash browns are the perfect crispiness i’ve yet to find elsewhere.

We have eaten here lots of times mainly come for breakfast which has always been good and great value. Came here for lunch today and again tasty and good value. Staff are lovely and friendly. It's good to support local businesses in these difficult times and three squares make it easy as they don't over charge and try and keep it affordable for all.

would give 0 if I could but one star for the mug of tea. Ordered two link sausage rolls. Didnt realise at time or wouldn't ordered. Pre cooked sausages cut in half and re heated. But came out dry and still luke warm. Wife ate one bite and couldn't swallow it.I have waste so ate her's as well on leaving wife asked when were the sausages cooked and was told first thing. We arrived at 10.45 am.Is is even legal to do this especially with pork. I support local and small places but never ever again would i set one foot in this place and when ordered I didnt see the pre cooked sausages and over cooked bacon.

This cafe has been here years. It has never changed, thank god. Bacon sandwiches are perfect. It's the typical old school type cafe. Menu has a good variety and nothing is over priced, I have never had any problems when going there.There is a seating area which is quite small. It needs a more cosy feel to it but it's what it is.The staff always pleasant, nothing is ever too much to ask.Whenever in town call in

Absolutely love this little cafe. It's nothing grand, what you see is what you get, no nonsense mainly fried food, hot and cold drinks, biscuits etc. The establishment is spotlessly clean and the staff try their hardest to maintain high standards and good customer care and will always cook food to customers preference. A real positive throw back to bygone days! 😀

Called on a Saturday lunchtime for our very first visit to this cafe. First impressions were very good, nice clean and bright interior and welcoming friendly staff. We both had bacon and mushroom butties and a pot of tea. Lovely soft buns and plentiful fillings of bacon and mushrooms. Very tasty - could not be faulted - excellent value. Will definitely be back.

Lovely, friendly staff. Very good bacon buttys. Just ask them to cook to your liking and they will do their best. They do sometimes deep fry the bacon which I wish they wouldn't do as it makes the bacon like jerky.

This place has been going longer than I've been alive. It's still going after all these years for a reason. It does good, proper old greasy spoon food. None of this Quinoa nonsense. It's not Michelin Star rated gourmet wizardry, it's nicely cooked bacon, in a white bun, with ketchup and it's cheap too. Marvellous. Other breakfast options are available of course, but a bacon butty from the nice people at Three Squares is just part of my DNA. Literally. My mum ate more than a few while pregnant with me!

Lovely little cafe. Very reasonably priced. The gentleman that served us was very quick and helpful. There is changing facilities for children, highchairs, a really cute motorbike rocking horse and a standard rocking horse so a few things to keep little ones busy whilst you finish your meal. They also have decaf tea, perfect for a breastfeeding mama. Oh yeah and they offer a mammoth breakfast, 4 bacon, 4 sausage, 4 eggs, 4 black pudding, fried bread, toast, beans, tomatoes etc for under a tenner. I didn't order it but I imagine it would be incredible and a great hangover cure. Please leave me a helpful vote if you found this review useful.
