Thorpe Farm Centre - County Durham

I am so glad I stumbled upon this amazing restaurant a few weeks ago with a friend. The cleanliness, friendly and helpful staff, and delicious food at great prices exceeded my expectations. Returning this week, I was once again welcomed with a big smile and promptly seated at my table. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff, the ambiance, and the overall dining experience. The restaurant also boasts a beautiful farm in front of the property. What more could you ask for when dining out for lunch or dinner? Oh, and did I mention they serve alcohol?

This restaurant is a bit busier than others on the A66, but it is quieter and more relaxed. We decided to try the two-course lunch special which included roast pork, Yorkshire pudding, roasted potatoes, green beans, broccoli, and mash. For dessert, we had Eton mess. The meal cost £9.95 and was very delicious. The staff was friendly, and there is also a gift and home furnishings business located next to the restaurant.
