My girl friend had arranged a suprise birthday party in one of there private rooms last saturday, after we had been for a wonderful diner previously.We first heard about The Bay Horse in Hurworth by reading about darlingtons first Michelin Awarded pub in the local newspaper, on our first visit we booked in on a Tuesday Evening, they have a french menu every tuesday, 3 course diner and a glass of LP champagne for 24 pounds, brilliant on all counts - food, service and value. On this occaision the waitress offered to show us the private rooms and on the way home I mentioned it would be great for a group of friends to have diner in one of the private dining rooms as they had a great feel. So on Saturday the misses said we where doing diner just the two of us, on arrival we grabbed a pint and gin & tonic at the bar, where the manager offered us a table in the snug whilst our table was been prepared.In the snug were a dozen friends, champagne and canopes - it was a great start to the evening and it just got better, I had the whitby crab starter, the best belly pork ive ever had for my main course and a delightfull English cheese board to finish. The whole party commented on the excellent standards of the food, service and especially the red wine, Medoc, it was fabulous.A must for any foodie..
