The best restaurants serving British food in Darlington North East

Just had to write one final review of this excellent restaurant which is now sadly closed. We were lucky enough to have our second (and now, final) chance to try their tasting menu, and every dish was a delight. Looking forward to seeing whether there will be a new place with Michelin stars to try soon!

Lovely family run business. Food was made on the premises and was great. The sausage rolls and cakes are amazing, we will definatly be going again. Friendly efficient staff and beautiful little tea room.

The premises is very clean rooms are comfortable very friendly rooms available for disabled near town

Our office ordered from Peartree Hill Cafe the other week, there was about 10 of us ordering food. I messaged the cafe on Facebook and they were very helpful, getting back to me the same day with pictures of the menu and relevant information. We preordered the day before via Facebook messenger and my colleague rang up to confirm they received it etc. Food was ready on collection time, very easy process and the food was amazing! All homemade meals, including the chips. Great quality and would 100% recommend!

The first bedroom when you go through the door is the best with some gorgeous artwork on the walls and some cool patterns on the back of the door. Always have a great time whenever I go and i always get served with such good quality fancy coffee. Nothing better.

Very friendly always asking us if we were alright and asking if we wanted anything would definitely go again

We were a family of four and visited for Christmas Lunch. We were amazed at how quick the service was. They let us enjoy our meal without rushing us, and the food was wonderful, hot, and beautifully plated, visually appealing to the guests. The staff were very efficient, attentive, and polite. I intend to go back again for more delicious meals and would recommend this Restaurant to anyone looking for good food and service.

From the heart this place offers excellent support for the over 50's in regards to the likes of help and support for benefits etc. However, the cafeteria is not good at all and the beverages are below average. Over priced and worse than school dinner meals.

Very impressed with the food, Burger and Bao bun were amazing! Can't recommend this place enough

Lovely place, very good food indeed, staff are friendly. Date night deal is a really good! Becoming a regular there!

Fantastic afternoon the service, and food was exceptional and all my party of 8 sand their praises. Lovely atmosphere friendly and relaxing.

Had a great stay in the premier inn, beefeater every morning and night for lunch, very friendly welcoming staff with great service, especially Lisa the manager going above and beyond everytime for our team, thank you so much.

Tuvimos una reserva de la tarde en Nochevieja y toda la experiencia fue excelente. El lugar nos dijo por adelantado que necesitábamos tener nuestro pedido de comida en 14 . 30 porque tenían mucho que hacer para su banquete completo. Teníamos pre-reservado nuestro perro, así que estábamos en la sección de bares, pero esto estaba absolutamente bien y tan bueno como su restaurante principal (supongo). Nuestra mesa nos estaba esperando cuando llegamos tarde (problemas de taxi! ) pero estaban felices de tomar nuestros pedidos de comida por teléfono, así que todo estaba bien para los 14. 30 deadline. El menú no era extenso pero nuestra fiesta no tuvo problemas en seleccionar los champiñones salteados, haggis (brillante) , sopa y cóctel de gambas y salmón (increíble) . La mayoría de nuestro partido tenía hamburguesas para principal, pero también teníamos una salchicha y puré, así como lubina. Vino y Prosecco eran geniales, así como un Martini expreso. Gran, atento, servicio personal. Bien hecho.

Afternoon Tea- Food beautiful but team keen to clear away plates before we had finished. Do had no jam or butter for scone. No offer of 2nd drink. A hot day and really unpleasant odour from staff member. Disappointed as previous visit staff very attentive. Today felt as though staff couldn’t be bothered.
