Having reserved a table for 4 earlier in the week we were excited to visit and try the menu on what was to be our pre-meal before going to see Morrissey at the Globe theatre. We had all travelled down from Durham, but upon arrival I was told our reservation had disappeared from the system, which we all found hard to believe. Albeit we were 5 minutes late due to traffic but I'm pretty sure they just give our table away, as it was super busy. This left us with very little time to get food anywhere but luckily there was a Spoons' nearby. Think I would only visit again for drinks.

Unfortunately my experience here for the first time wasn’t great. We waited for our food for around 45 minutes and the Parmo chicken came very watery, for the salad I was given 3 bits of lettuce and 4 bits of pepper as a salad. When the waitress asked how our food was I explained the chicken was watery and she replied ‘strange’ and rolled her eyes. She said she’d discount my mother in laws meal but didn’t. Very rude.
Such a lovely place in a fabulous courtyard setting selling an impressive array of local and world beers. The plan was to eat here but a “system error” prevented this from happening which was a shame. It was so busy, with the majority of people just drinking so it probably worked out well anyway. I’d definitely go back and check out some of the beers one day though

one of the best places I've had for a long time. personal very friendly and made us feel so comfortable! enjoyed the beer, eating was amazing and I cannot wait to come back! the best pub in teesside let alone stockton, love it!
Been here before and found the food good. However the food was not the best on this occasion onion rings greesy, no pizza and the vegetarian take on a burger was underwhelming. The Korean style cauliflower was however amazing.
Both staff were so friendly and talkative. They also offered great food recommendations. BBQ pulled pork burger was delicious and the portion of pulled pork was generous. Will definitely visit again when we are around.
eating has absolutely loved it here. fantastic burger, best chips I've ever had and the ice sandwich was delicious. even the little pots of the sauce were delicious. sweet little bar with nice staff.

Sister ordered a meal for me from here. They used a Beyond Meat Burger which was lush. Also included vegan sweets. I believe one of the owners is vegetarian. Came hot as I recall.
Unbelievable parmo. And very tasty burger. Great value for money. Very welcoming and fast paced staff. Clean and tidy rustic looking restaurant. I highly recommend
