Best English Restaurants in Middlesbrough

Fantastic Sunday lunch again at Hibou. Service was friendly and efficient and as always the atmosphere and ambience were excellent. We were tempted by the oysters as a pre-starter and it was a great decision. They were well presented and super tasty. We had prawn cocktail, fish cakes and scotch eggs for starters and all were delicious. The mains of turkey and two pork were absolutely superb. Really good portions and the meat cooked perfectly. There were plenty of vegetables of broccoli, green beans and cauliflower. The Yorkshire puddings were fantastic and the gravy is some of the best we have had. Pigs in blankets were really nice too. With two pints, two large glasses of wine, an apple juice and the 10% service charge (fully deserved) the bill was just under £159 for three. The whole experience was fabulous and we are looking forward to going back in a couple of weeks.

This was our first time for lunch but it didn’t disappoint. Excellent food, plenty of different dishes to choose from, not your traditional Sunday lunch which was refreshing. The staff are wonderful so good with my 90 year old mum so much so she asked for us to book afternoon tea for her birthday. The shop is a delight, difficult to resist. Would definitely recommend a visit.

We have visited D&P a few times now and will keep returning, we enjoyed our meals. A great menu to choose from and always very helpful when catering for my daughter who is gluten, lactose and dairy free. Food was great again and delivered by a great team.

We were given a lunch voucher for a present and we really enjoyed our visit. All three courses that we chose were delicious and the meal came with 2 glasses of fizzy. The restaurant has an interesting history and had a pleasant atmosphere.

Wonderful as ever - we had a Sunday lunch for 4 with desserts and I can't fault it at all! Clean venue with lovely staff. We can't wait to go again!
