March Hare in Bishop Auckland

Popped in for some food after picking my partner up from work. Greeted by Luke Hudson, very happy bubbly character, really went out of his way to make us feel welcome. Food was brought out by John the manager, he asked if there was anything extra we needed. He remembered I'd asked about extra dressing for my salad before and went the extra mile to check I was happy with it or if I needed more. 5 stars for being made to feel like a valued customer.

The March Hare pub is in St Helen Tindale retail park, Bishop Auckland. Customer service is spot on. Food wasn't. I had the Hunters chicken baguette & my hubby had vegetarian sausages in baguette. I left majority of my baguette roll. The bacon & cheese was overdone. The onion rings overdone too. The vegetarian sausages tasted ok. Cost £18.87 £7 for 2 pint Pepsi. Nice relaxed atmosphere in the pub. Lots of parking. Has disabled parking bays. Lot of outside seating area.

Called this afternoon for the childrens fancy dress disco, it was amazing!!!! The new manager John Nicholson went all out even joining in the fun and games with the children dressed as a minion which everyone loved, then personally thanked all families for coming. The staff and service are excellent. The food is reasonably priced and excellent quality, the kids meals are by far great value as portions are sized according to age/appetite. We will definitely return!

Good food and drink, service was good, waited a little bit at bar to order food as there was only one person serving, asked what's the difference between an extra large Sunday roast (extra 2 squid) and a normal size, lad didn't know so asked kitchen, answer was extra slice of Beef and extra Yorkshire pudding (i recieved 2 decent slices of beef and 1 Yorkshire pudding) so would be interesting to see a standard meal and extra extra large side by side for reference. Anyway, like i said, starters were nice, and Sunday roast was nice. Better than Toby Carvery (Carlisle).

We visited the March Hare for my Mother in Laws birthday. It was the first time we had visited. We were looking for somewhere new to make memories. The menu was great for us as we knew that it had something for everyone. Some of us had a main meal and a few had starters for main meals. It was not a problem to be able to do this. The staff were very kind and friendly and nothing was any trouble to them. They are very accommodating. The March Hare is very clean and tidy. We felt comfortable where we were sat but we know it wouldn't have been a problem if we wanted to move seats. My daughter is visually impaired and it was great for her as it was well lit she could read the menu. The music was at an appropriate level to listen to whilst enjoying time having your meal. We ordered food for 8 people and it came out swiftly and all together. Nobody was missed out and the changes we asked for to the food were given. The food was hot and tasty. The cutlery and tables were clean and tidy. We all had dessert and they were gorgeous!!! Especially the blood orange brownie with ice cream !!! Overall a very clean, tidy, spacious, friendly and welcoming establishment. We are definitely coming to visit again on my daughters birthday. We are looking forward to it and we have recommended you to all our friends and family. Thank you and see you all soon.
