About This Pub

Ah, the Green Dragon in Darlington – it's one of those places that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From the reviews I've had a look at, it's got this easy-going charm that's ideal for a casual catch-up with mates. The prices are bang on, not over the top at all, so you can enjoy a pint or a meal without worrying about the wallet. The staff really shine through, always friendly and on point, which makes the whole experience that bit more enjoyable. If you're a fan of sports, it's brilliant for watching the matches on TV, and the food doesn't disappoint – things like the Chicken Parmesan come across as fresh and full of flavour, and it's clear families love the pizzas and chips. Weekends ramp up the fun with a top DJ, creating a lively buzz that could make for a memorable night. But, to keep it real, there are a couple of niggles; the chips are alright but not homemade, which might leave you wanting a tad more authenticity, and the operating hours look a bit muddled, plus no website means it's harder to sort out plans in advance. All in all, it's a solid choice for a relaxed pint or bite, and I'd say it's worth giving it a go if you're in the area – just go in with an open mind and you'll likely have a good time.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Chicken Parmasan was really fresh and tasty. My daughter enjoyed her pizza and chips. Chips where nice but homemade chips would have been a great.

Brilliant night out . DJ on the weekend is fantastic with big green hair and beard!! Lovely well kept pub with staff always serving you with a smile 😃. Definitely go there and try it out you will enjoy it . Prices are where they should be aswell , most places these days charge through nose + when your on your way back home there's plenty food places round the corner if you haven't already ate at the Green Dragon . To the Scotsman with that huge green hair thanks for a great weekend your music is epic !!!

This place has always been a great place to stop for a drink and/or a bite to eat. Located in a historic town centre street, its a Brill place to stop when shopping or on a pub crawl. The pub is in great condition, and since Simon took over as manager it has always maintained a high level of cleanliness. And most importantly, It has nice cheap fruity cider on tap!
