The Crathorne Arms is a great pub in a wonderful community spirited village, lovely people, Lord Crathorne himself couldn’t be more supportive, how lucky we are.

Our life has come a full circle from a town pub in Middlesbrough (well Eugene has) to the tontine (McCoys Hotel, Restaurant and Bistro) to a village pub in Crathorne, Ten Minutes from Middlesbrough.

We live above the pub, our furniture and furnishings live downstairs as they can’t and won’t fit up the stairs! So the canoe has the condiments, the bookcases our books, the huge sofa with big squashy cushions to sink into, tin lanterns reflecting patterns on the ceiling, this all makes for a homely feel and that’s what we would like to create along with good wholesome food and drink.

Of Course the staff, front of house and kitchen are all great, hardworking, smiley, enthusiastic young people and a joy to work with.

    Food lovely as usual. Fairly quiet but for some reason service was slow. Already booked in for next week.

    Valentine's day lunch. Overall enjoyable. Twice baked cheese soufflé excellent. My main course of pan seared liver was let down by poor preparation of one of the pieces of liver ( chewy sinewy bits left in). Husband's venison pie with red cabbage very good Lovely staff. Candles and roses on the table.

    Very disappointed with some of our meals. The chicken and Broccoli main meal lacked any flavour and in my opinion didn't show any culinary expertise. The bread served in-between courses was lovely but the butter too rock hard to spread. The cheese soufflé was more like scrambled egg and had been re heated so much that i had to wait a few minutes for it to cool down or it would have burnt my mouth. I never usually turn down the opportunity to have a dessert but none of the 3 choices excited me and i felt again didn't demonstrate any creativity. We didn't mention anything to the waiter at our table as we were so close to other tables we didn't want to spoil other peoples evenings. At point of paying might be better to ask guests for feedback. We did like the character of the pub and the ambience. We did loveb
