Darlington​のベストイギリス料理レストラン

Brilliant night, good food and wine and the pace of service was perfect!

21 is a real gem of a restaurant. The food is fabulous and there's a lovely atmosphere. Although it was busy, the noise from other diners was not intrusive and there were plenty of staff to ensure you were well looked after. On that note, the staff are an absolute credit to the restaurant; friendly, chatty and smiley, whilst still being professional. They were attentive, without being intrusive, which is a real skill to master. Every member of staff from front of house reception, waiting staff, sommelier and bar staff, helped to make our visit a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Not sure why I haven't been here before, perhaps I thought it might be a little too formal but that's my mistake as it's not in the slightest bit stuffy, quite the opposite. I may have lost out on a wonderful place and some fantastic food over the years because of a misconception, but I plan on rectifying that error by going back as often as I can from now on.

I hate it when restaurants put a discretionary service charge on. I pay it but would tip anyway if the food and service are value for money.And a further point is the Employer should be paying decent salaries without staff having to rely on tips for their living.

From the moment we entered the building the service was outstanding,confirming our booking and showing us your table,confirming my birthday. Not wanting a large meal we opted for fish and chips and a burger meal both arrived in good time and the good as I expected was 1st class. We had a couple of drinks and paid .a truly enjoyable birthday meal. Thankyou

Nice atmosphere and excellent service. Would be improved by having a wider choice of main courses. What I had was good though .
