Lovely food and very quick service will definitely be back! Cake counter also looked delicious and all homemade I will have to try next time!

I get 150 trip advisor points for writing this, I hope they can be cashed in for something useful, coffee hot and black like I like it so 5 stars

Great find! Good selection of drinks, amazing beer garden, a real sun trap. We visited on a Saturday afternoon and would definitely visit again.

Great little village pub, ran by the locals, so friendly, we stayed at the stable cottage it was literally over the road, would recommend to anyone if in the area to visit this little hidden gem, x

Scam artists. So not do business with. Where is oir 1200 deposit?

Brilliant choice of beers and spirits! Friendly landlord who made us feel very welcome. The homemade pizza was excellent, a lovely village pub with the a beautiful beer garden

This place is amazing! The staff were really nice, and the food was delicious. I believe we as a family only ever went for Breakfast, but it was really nice even if we only went for Breakfast. The toast they did was lush (as said by one of my family members) and so was the English Breakfast. (with Toast, at least I think so) The toilets were easy to find in case we needed to get to them, and the atmosphere of the place was just outstanding. As much as my family would love to come again, we only came here because we were on holiday and it’s a bit too far for us to drive so I don’t think we’ll have a chance to come again, but I’m sure other customers who come will have a really good experience. Personally, I hope nothing but the best for this place and the staff who work there because this place and the staff deserve it.

Bought a portion of fish strips that were nearly £6. There was 8 pieces of what I can only describe as scraps. I think the fryer must have forgotten to put the fish in. Un fortunately we had taken them home before opening so was impractical to return them. Chips were OK but cold

Wonderful introduction to Indian food. Chaz/chad was super helpful and made lovely recommendations for us. We had lamb Rogan and chicken korma. Next time we’re in Barnard castle we will definitely come again.

Homemade minted lamb pie delish , was bit disappointed that it was minced lamb rather than chunky but other than that 100% delish proper homemade with beautiful pastry. Deffo go again next time over this way. Lovely staff, freshly cooked food and reasonable prices.

Great parking close by. Access has lots of steps to negotiate with suitcases. Friendly reception staff. Room was lovely. Contemporary feel with a massive bath and lovely shower with nice toiletries. Plenty of hot water and fluffy towels. Tea/coffee tray very good. Noise from people entering and exiting pub was noted. Luckily, the noise stopped by 11pm. Room was very hot. Could not open sash windows easily. Electric fan noisy and very dusty. Lots of road noise. Barnard castle is a lovely, busy little town. Pub staff were lovely. Unfortunately, food had stopped being served at 4pm on Sunday, when we arrived. Looked nice, though.Breakfast was nice, plenty of choice. Oat milk and gluten free toast was available on request. Salmon and scrambled eggs on toast were really nice, but toast was dry without spread or butter. I did not ask for dairy free spread, which was my fault.Waitress was a bit grumpy, but we were very happy with overall experience for a one night stay

Khole was amazing as always, she's always customer focused. Cant wait to come back. Love this place in Darlington xxxxx

Really good sunday lunch. Clean plates all round. Beautifully cooked pork. Sausagemeat stuffing a treat. Apple crumble divine and lovely custard. We eat out A LOT and have to say this sunday lunch up among the best.

Friendly staff, Was made to feel welcome.

I walked to Barnard Castle one lunch time and popped in for a bite to eat. There’s a big choice on the menu and a list of specials. I had the chicken and asparagus pie with veg and chips and it was delicious. My only observation would be that the service was a bit slow but I wasn’t in a hurry.
