The Darlington Arms Grouse And Claret

Excellent lunch today very good service friendly staff chips to die for food very well cooked 3 third time we have been when using Bristol Airport

We popped in for a mid week lunch, however only chose to stay for a drink as it was so cold ! But the decor was really good and the staff very friendly. Would return to try out another day if we are in the...

Stayed on a Saturday night and again on the following Monday got the same extremely well furnished and comfortable room on both nights to be near to Bristol airport and just a very short taxi ride away! We also had breakfast, lunch...

The menu is awful. Nothing offering locally sourced produce or multi cuisine as the advert banner outside the premises claims. There are only around 5 main meals to choose from and my friend and I were told two of those weren’t available that evening. The menu itself can be likened to a takeaway flyer. Really disappointed and won’t be going back.

Visited here twice last week on departure and return of our holiday from Bristol airport. We stayed at the hotel opposite and were very impressed with the food. Nice selection and very tasty. Good portion sizes and well worth the price. We loved the chicken skewers (sauce was amazing( and the burgers the best chips I've ever had! WIll return when we have an airport stop over next.

Went for an evening meal before flight from airport, a couple of miles down the road. Fairly typical pub menu with Asian twist. First choice item not available when we visited. However food arrived quickly, well cooked and large portions. Background music a bit loud for our taste. Appeared to be predominantly a restaurant rather than pub. Nice welcome from friendly and attentive staff.

Having fully researched the area for our overnight stay to connecting flights this is my honest review: Upon arrival we were greeted by a lovely softly spoken gentleman who showed us to our room and explained WiFi, separate bathroom facilities and check out procedures. We then had dinner in the establishment which was amazing, hot and fresh! Really please with our meal and the attentiveness of the staff! For the price this is a decent overnight stay for our flight. Highly recommended and will use again!

The Darlington was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. We stayed the night on our way to the airport and had an evening meal not always easy on a Sunday. The food was good, an English Indian fusion, I wish I could have stayed longer to try some of the dishes available. Our room was fine although the bathroom was separated by a corridor it was exclusively ours. It was rather warm and we are not used to traffic noise so we had to keep the window closed, the staff had however thoughtfully provided a fan, but we did not get the best night's sleep, hence the 4 and not a 5.

A really nice surprise of a pub. Fantastic welcome as we were staying the night and incredibly polite and professional staff. Menu was fantastic drawing from many classic styles and quality put most main stream pubs to shame. Only draw back was the vile racist stood at the bar clutching his half drunken bottle of wine complaining about everything possible (in order to refuse to pay the bill despite demanding to take the remaining wine. A man so much of a embarrassment to the human race that he told the delightful guy behind the bar that his accent meant he “didn’t understand English “ gladly he left to applause from all the grown up polite members of society that witnessed his hissy fit !
