We come here a lot with just living down the road, staff are always so welcoming and food is lovely!
We recently had our little boys christening party upstairs in the function suite, the day couldn't have gone any better, I bought a package so I literally didn't have to lift a finger, the room was dressed beautifully, the manager had personally ironed every table cloth! The food was out of this world, all our guests commented on how tasty it was! We had a mixture of hot & cold food also made in house. They even arranged the DJ for us who was also very professional! So so pleased thank you all at old hall farm!
Visit here with my Dad freqently and have a lovely meal whether it be carvery or off the menu. Never feel we are being rushed and staff are always pleasant and accommodating. I have a food allergy and they go out of their way in sorting my food for me. Recommend the place as a relaxed and affordable and worth every penny. 1 poor meal in 3 years of visiting so dont think thats bad and when staff were told we were offered complimentary desserts so all good.
I fell ill today during my lunch. A lovely carvery meal to look forward too and I couldn't eat any of it. One of the staff (didn't catch her name) came to the toilet to check on me, then went and asked my friend to come check on me and when I was about to emerge from said toilet this lovely staff lady handed me my money back for the meal and gave me her best wishes in feeling better soon.
I must point out it had nothing to do with the scrumptious food, I was just not well.
A huge thank you to the lovely lady and a huge apology to everyone who was there.
had the £5.95 meal deal small carvery and desert,
it wasn't that small and it was really nice , hot and a good choice of veg,
I had the apple pie with custard and my two other guests had the chocolate melt in the middle pudding, form what I saw that deal is on 12 to five Monday to Friday, I would recommend it ,
Been the Old Hall Farm many times and can honestly say we've always enjoyed a good service. We've had lunch, dinner, carvery, just drinks & even tribute nights. Would defnitly recommend this place.
Good Friday lunch, very helpful staff who went the extra mile to provide a water bowl for our dogs. We ate outside & despite being the only people in the beer garden the team consistently provided a top service to us. The food & drinks were of a good standard & reasonably priced...we would definitely return.
We went for a mid week.roast. bargain and had a lit of gluten free puds..but just had carvery. The turkey meat just melted on my mouth. Excellent x
Great place for a carvery and family get together! Good food, beer and atmosphere all around :)
Called into the old hall farm on the way home to Durham the food was very good and the staff were very helpful will call in again next time we down that way
Lovely clean place great food brilliant staff carvary is yummy deffo the place to go
We went here for a carvery on Sunday afternoon. We didn't have a table booked but that wasn't a problem. The food was fresh, tasty and all very hot. We both had the carvery option and this was very nice. They also have a great beer garden which we expected to be noisy due to its proximity to the motorway but that was not the case it was lovely outside, they even have a playpark for children
Ate here for the First time Today with family for Fathers day, We ordered 3 carverys and one ultimate southern fried chicken burger.
Service was good, great atmosphere, Food was great, Carvery was fantastic good sized portions, great quality meat, Vegetables, Yorkshire puddings etc.
Chicken burger was really flavoursome and lovely chipolata dip and gravy, Great pint etc.
First off I want to say staff were lovely, helpful and plenty about if anything was needed. Asked us a few times if food was ok and collected plates in a time manner, so thank you! The tables could be better prepared, there wasn't enough forks or serviettes and no salt and pepper on our table, but when asked for it was brought to us promptly.
Food wise, I had the brie bites and carvery. The brie bites I recommend, piping hot, cheese melted fantastically and the caramelized onion with it was delicious however maybe a bigger pot because the brie bites didn't even fit in the bowl. Carvery was nice, meat was juicy and flavoursome, veg selection was good with mash, roast potatoes, dauphinoise potatoes, carrots and more, however the gravy for me lacked flavour, was abit bland and the Yorkshire puddings were more flake and airy than I'd like.
Price wise, not bad £12.75 for a large carvery and it is a decent size plate.
The thing to knock it down, as I had my neice and nephew with me was the play areas. The indoor one is severely lacking in decent options so when it rained there were kids about the place bored, and the outside is just a single wooden structure with slide. Maybe upgrading this for more entertainment would be nice.
Overall 4/5
One of the best carveries ever had. The veg were many and varied all extremely well cooked and presented. Frankie the chef provided excellent and professional info about the food and the process. DH had fish and chips fish was smashing. Fabulous meal all round. Well Done! Can’t add photo as all eaten.
Great menu choice.
Food came quick and was very nice would definitely go again
Old Hall Farm hosted our wedding reception and evening function, from 12 noon all the way through to about 11pm. The reception meal and evening buffet were fantastic and none of our guests went hungry. The staff went above and beyond for us, especially Mandy (she was just amazing), as was Dan. You could say we took over the restaurant but this did not faze them, they did everything they could to accommodate us. We would definitely recommend this place to others and we would most certainly use the function room again, if we ever wanted to host a party. 10 out 10 for everything.
Despite arriving 20 minutes behind schedule, the restaurant staff displayed remarkable understanding over the phone despite the obvious bustling afternoon crowd. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with warmth and exceptional assistance from the staff. The cuisine, surprisingly reasonably priced, surpassed our expectations in flavor and presentation. We wholeheartedly endorse this establishment and are already contemplating a reservation for Boxing Day.
Great place to eat! staff are amazing, included our little boy and got him engaged in a drawing activity and kindly hung his picture up behind the bar, it made his night! And ours. Food was spot on and fast service, along with a very nice place to sit down and eat, all in all a great experience all round, will definitely return :)
We were a party of 4 people who were in need of supper following a meeting. It was 8pm when we arrived.
We were unaware of the carvery offer available, and although we chose from the menu, we noted the carvery as a future choice.
We were impressed with the freshly cooked food that was served, including a gluten free meal for one of our colleagues who is coeliac.
The drinks were also good.
We were particularly impressed to see one young man standing polishing the cutlery in the traditional form with hot water and clean cloth.
We will visit again.
Please pass our feedback on to the team there.
Party of 11 never been before. With family visiting from Australia. Lovely pub/restaurant, food was delicious, lots of choice, some had the carvery and thought it was lovely ! Drinks and food reasonably priced, atmosphere great nice and busy but not hectic. Lovely seating area outside will definitely visit again. All staff very friendly and helpful.. thank you Old Hall Farm!
Was staying local and we visited this carvery twice in 5 days. First was a Sunday and the 2nd midweek. Great food, great value and fast friendly service. Would 100% return if visiting area again.
Very helpful, as I sat outside alone with a small dog, but I was looked after very well by Staff. I have known The Old Hall and staff for a number of years and I can't fault the service or friendliness. Thank you x
Comfortable, clean surroundings with a good atmosphere and attentive staff. Good varied menu with lots of choice. Ordered off the menu and wasn’t disappointed as food was lovely and served hot and cooked to our liking. ( Steak cooked medium). Very good choice of drinks at the bar also the option of hot drinks as well. All at a very competitive price..
Great pub with a lovely atmosphere. The staff are young, but they are amazing in there attentiveness to service. Prices are OK, food is good especially the Roast lovingly served by Frankie, Yuuum.
I went with a group on friends on Sunday 1st October. Food was great especially the carvery. All staff were very friendly especially Reece! His Yorkshire puddings were amazing 🤩🤩🤩
