“ This was our first time here and it didn't disappoint!! All the food we had was perfect! You could taste the quality in the ingredients. The large menu almost made it impossible to just choose 1 pizza, we'll definitely be back to try others. The service was great. ”
“ An absolute gem of a place. I can guarantee you won’t find pizza this good anywhere else for 150 miles. Not just that, the whole team are amazing. Even if the food was a 5/10 (which it wasn’t, full on 12/10) these guys made it amazing. Food was banging, I’m a pain and ask questions, change toppings etc etc & nothing was too much. The chef came out and told me which kind of mushrooms would be on my pizza and the owner (really sorry I forgot your name) tried to find me a nice Italian red based on what I told him I liked. The only issue I have is that I forgot to leave a tip! I have been kicking myself all day about it. Oh and the Tiramisu, the Tiramisu. Flipping outstanding. Until I found what I’m now calling “the stable” I thought that there was no hope for Darlo. I’m going to have to come back again now. Full on in love with the passion you guys have. Thank you! ”
“ The menu has so many fantastic choices it's almost overwhelming. It's got a cosy family vibe. The drinks selection is good, particularly if you enjoy wine. The servers are friendly. Definitely try to reserve a table. There's parking nearby that's free after 6. The pizzas are a 7/10. The margherita was a bit watery but the Cor Blimey was delicious. The chips are fine. They charge 1 for ketchup which is uncommon in the UK and made worse by the fact it's a watery marinara instead of ketchup. ”
“ Doesn't win the awards all the time for nothing!!! Lovely place with a great atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. You can see the woodfired pizza oven and watch them cooking the pizzas from some of the tables. Great selection of authentic thin crust pizzas available with various toppings. We had the rosemary and garlic chips too which are delicious. Plenty of people getting pizza boxed up to take home when they couldn't finish it & it is also popular for people collecting takeaway pizzas too. ”
“ Great Pizza! My friend and I had a great meal he's been to quite a lot of Neapolitan Pizza places (Particularly around Leeds area) and he puts stable hearth right up there! The nduja piggy pot sharer is a highlight as well! Ive been twice now to this place, coincidentally I'm moving to this town soon so I plan to come again. Even of it's just for take out! The Chips are Also some of the best I've had too! ”
“ I pride myself in being a pizza connoisseur and this place ticks all the boxes of a great pizza. Dough, base sauce and toppings that actually make sense and should be on a pizza. 10/10 The rustic look Friendly staff Clean toilets (which most eateries in Darlington fall short of sometimes) ”
“ Such lovely staff all round! Very smiley and helpful. Pizza selection was IMMENSE with all sorts of bases. I got the Maisie Moo this time which was lush but I'd highly recommend the Deputy Dog (pumpkin base) which I got last time because that was UNREAL best pizza I've ever had. ”
“ Amazing pizzas at a reasonable price, 15-20 per pizza, with a large selection. All pizzas are Neapolitan, hence only have a thin crust, but if you like a wood fired pizza with a thin base then this may be for you. Lovely atmosphere, dined here three times and the table placement was great each time, good space and didn't feel cramped. Only complaint would be that in table next to the large window at the front has a very weak sofa which I worried was going to break with two adults sat on it, luckily it didn't, but it was an unneeded worry every time someone got up. The table was sticky, though I'm sure we could have asked a waiter to wipe it down, but we didn't, so that is on us. Service is quick, no complaints, and they accommodated for food allergies. Very excited to return and continue to try the extensive menu, this is the best wood fired pizza I have had with quality tasting ingredients. Highly recommend. ”
