Stayed here on a whim, travel a lot with work and try to pick small independent places where I can, usually with a pub. Unfortunately, the pub was shut as it was a Monday, but I just crossed the road and went there for food and drinks so no problem. The room was beautiful, bright, very clean and very spacious. It looked newly decorated and done very tastefully, felt like I was staying in a stately home, not the local boozer! I mentioned to some locals I was working with that I was staying here and they didn’t know there were rooms above the pub… so definitely need to shout about it! Quality teas, coffees etc and generously stocked. A bit of a novelty and very welcomed when you spend so much time in hotels. Next time I’m in Darlo I’ll be staying here, so comfortable and conveniently located.

The rooms have recently been done up, to a good standard. Nice and helpful landlord. Great that the rooms had a separate entrance from the pub.

Surprised by joy! I was looking for a bargain for a business trip & found it at the Boot & Shoe - in Spades! A pretty ordinary, traditional facade fronts an open but still traditional bar area. It's definitely a pub with rooms - & what rooms! My double was large, with views out onto the market square. It had easy chairs, coffee maker plus a kettle, if preferred. It has bebefitted from a lot of investment. Landlird Chowed me to the room personally & explained the TV's operation in detail. He could have saved his breath - I never got a chance to watch it! I went down to the bar for for a well-earned drink. I'm from Wiltshire & was pleasantly gobsmacked by the price of its beer, especially the "own label" brew. Try it; it redefins value for money. Turns out Thursday is Open Mic & Karaoke night. The Open Mike session was interesting, with several veterans displaying their skills on guitar. The singing was ok, too. I was thinking about popping out for a meal when the karaoke started. Seems like most of those present were regulars. The singing was sometimes v good, often hilarious & all warmly applauded. It became a really fab evening. I've never been to Darlington before but I was made to feel very welcome. The meal went by the board, I was enjoying myself so much. Would I go again? In a heartbeat. What I would ask, is: Chris, could you find a karaoke track of Tumbling Dice that's in my key, for next time? It will help improve my performance. Cheers, The Lodger 😁
