Offering real ales and quality home-made food as well as a B&B service with 5 comfortable bedrooms.
Pub
Formerly known as the ‘Crown and Anchor’, there has been a pub on the site since the late 1700’s. If you are looking for a traditional village pub serving real ale and a wide range of lagers, ciders and the delicious Pearl Jet Stout, together with wines and spirits, then look no further. We are a Cask Marque Awarded pub, demonstrating the quality of the ale we serve, which is independently quality assured.
An open plan bar and lounge leads into a 65 seater restaurant; small enough for those romantic dinners but also big enough for private functions, where you can eat, drink and dance the night away.
We have a large beer garden – with a safe children’s play area and outside BBQ and Bar that we use for our annual Garden Party or private functions.
Restaurant
The restaurant, having been awarded the Trip Advisor Travellers’ Choice 2020, has a wide range of delicious food. We serve traditional ‘gastro pub’ food, which includes fish and chips, lasagne, chicken with leek and stilton sauce, steaks and our famous ‘chicken parmo’, as well as many other delicious dishes and desserts. All our food is homemade, prepared each day with fresh ingredients and all our meats are supplied locally by our market butcher, Mulholland’s of Darlington.
We create great tasting food to make your day happier and healthier. Giving you an exceptional experience all year round is the core of our service.
