The Comet - Darlington

Visited the comet the other evening, and What an absolute gem this pub is. The owners Peter and Leslie were terrific and so friendly and helpful, even giving the locals complimentary snacks, the pub itself is in an old coaching Inn and Leslie has transformed the interior with countless interesting ornaments from old rocking horses to an Alice through the looking glass theme, there's far too much to mention, the wine, spirits and beer list is very good and extensive to meet all tastes. Do yourselves a favour and visit this lovely old pub, Thanks very much Peter and Leslie we had a great evening

We celebrated our Golden Wedding here at The Comet last week and the buffet Lesley provided was superb and we received many compliments on the food and venue. Nothing was too much trouble and Lesley and Peter decorated the pub with a banner and balloons for us. We would highly recommend any function here. Thank you Lesley and Peter for making our day extra special.

We have family in the village, but hadn't been to visit since mid 2017, so it was great to go to Quiz night at the pub and enjoy a pre-Christmas drink. Always busy, always quirky decor, great service and nice fellow patrons.

Wow what a brilliant pub great hosts great food great music. Don’t miss out on this place it’s worth visiting

The Comet is the place to visit for Sunday Lunch, Leslie and Peter put on a Sunday Lunch with all the normal Sunday Roasts plus a number of specials. The place is filled with many objects and is quite bizarre but fascinating. If you are thinking of going I would recommend that you ring and book as it is so popular with diners who have become regulars as the food is so good. The staff are so friendly and attentive serving everyone.
