The best restaurants serving British food in Hart Hartlepool North East

I've loved this place for over forty years now even though I only drop in occasionally these days. It's expanded in size a lot since I first came here for a couple of pints with mates and having a Saturday lunchtime pint with my Dad but it's been done in a way that doesn't make it feel like a barn, there are lots of smaller areas which make it more intimate. The food is always enjoyable but lately my main focus is coming for a good plate of fish & chips. My friend enjoys the parmos, my aunt loves the Bao buns which she has as a main with a portion of chips and is enough for her. My only criticism of the food is the lack of more chicken dishes but that's my own personal taste. There's always a good pint of beer at the bar and a warm ambiance throughout the place.

This is a pub we visit regularly for lunch Good choice of meals, quick service. Real ales available. Friendly staff. Visited again just as before. 8
