The Old Farmhouse - Menu

We look forward to going here every week . The staff are really friendly and go out of there way to look after you . You have to try the chips . There amazing. Looking forward to the winter because the staff have all the open fires on. A real home from home pub .

Never had a savoury before, but it was lovely onions, sausagemeat and seasoning all in a bun! Really yummy hot snack! The diner is a really good old fashioned market cafe, very reasonably priced and lovely friendly service. Even let us taste the savoury before we bought some!

Always had an endearing warm memory of the first sausage savoury bun from the indoor market. Peppery sausage with onions in a soft bun. Does the memory play tricks? Possibly or perhaps my taste buds have matured. Or has the recipe changed? Filled a gap. Was quite good. But not as good as I remembered

Food tasted great..... However an hours later when my partner started getting stomach cramps and had to go to be....I assumed he was unwell. Until I started being violently sick aswel as unwanted visits to the toilet. This lasted all night, I physically could not eat or drink! This was three days ago and we are still not well!! Its spoilt our weekend plans and I will NOT step foot in there again.

still a nice little place in the corner of the indoor market in Darlington. you always get a great chat with the Lovely Lisa and the Gorgeous Josie . very nice staff indeed. the tea is really nice, and the toast is always served hot, you get people from all walks of life coming in to this diner. been coming in here for years and there is never an issue, it is plain food at a fair price, not sure about vegan or gluton free meals as i just order what i want to eat. well done to the staff again

There has been a cafe here for decades and it is the home of Darlington's famed savoury. I visited for breakfast as I had some time to kill and the place seems to have seen better days, tatty broken furniture, stickers on the wall, generally unloved and unkempt. The other patrons were a mixture of elderly ladies, workmen and strange old men who may have been tramps. The food was fine, a full cooked breakfast with a mug of tea for £3.95 is good value, this place could be so much better, a full makeover with matching tables and a lick of paint would not cost the earth.

i have visited this lovely clean diner for well over 30 years, the savoury bun is totaly amazing. the staff are lovely. and will served you what you wish for. the prices fit a poor mans pockets with a smile. it has good food, i will return again one day when i am passing. the french lady was a total dream with her smile. the other members of staff are so so polite and i really want to give more stars. please go. eat. enjoy. and start your day knowing you are full and still have change ion your pocket. well done to all the members of staff. i can not find any fault and i am not looking for any faults. breakfast. toast. mug of tea. oh i so look forward to a return one day.

Food and staff are second to non. Practically family now Im in there that much. Unfortunately for me. Fantastic old school cooking as well as healthy and special options. The savouries are famous and so they should be, sometimes get a savoury with my meal. Your not from Darlo unless you’ve had a savoury in your life. The girls/lads all bully me and only reason I keep going back. Ultimate breakfast or the Roast dinner with extra fried roasties are the one. Simon needs to pull his socks up when Im in though. Thats my only fault is our Simon, he knows what I mean! ; thanks for always looking after me. Also opens at 8:30 which is good for someone up as early as I am and needs feeding properly!

This visit resulted from recommendations from general people i spoke to in Darlington. I made the visit to the indoor market situated in the centre of Darlington and found this little cafe/sit down, my first thought was omg what a scruffy little hole, however look beyond the seating and the decor and try what was described to me as a Darlo delicacy (The Savoury). Made from onions and sausage meat and served in a bap, also available with cheese. I was advised that the Darlo Savoury had been on the go since 1934, it was served on a melamine xmas plate which made me smile, i took my seat adding brown sauce as i generally always do to my food. I did notice the constant stream of people ordering...
