Absolutely outstanding! I don't eat fish and even I loved it. Went with family for a mid week meal and was blown away, my husband had the lobster which he assures me was amazing and my aunt thoroughly enjoyed the crab. I had a beautiful non fish dish which was gorgeous. Two lovely bottles of Chablis, only gripe was they needed to be a bit cooler but the fantastic waiter was straight on the case. The service was second to non and the atmosphere was amazing, we will definitely be back. Thank you

What a gem! Friendly, attentive staff. Food delicious & really reasonable. We took advantage of the February lunch offer, £20 for 3 courses. Well worth the trip to Darlington. Thank you Saltfish!!

Fabulous meal supporting Darlington restaurant week. Always feels like a special occasion at Saltfish. House wines delicious, great cocktails. The staff are always on hand and very professional? I had a crab fondue to start with, which was to die for. Followed by sea trout. Fried pancetta potatoes and buttered greens. Thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.

Service was great. Drinks were nice and restaurant decor is lovely. Food was expensive, and didn’t taste great. Starter-had humus and pittas, pittas were still raw, and hummus was ok. Main course of salmon was raw, so sent back and flavour of risotto was just not nice. Overall disappointed; overpriced and lacking in flavour. Wouldn’t go back.

Hotel: With only a few rooms it is a rather small, very personal hotel. Everything is nicely done and it rather feels like coming home, than checking in. It is very clean, modern standards and has all facilities you might need, such as sewing kit, ironing board, blow dryer,… it’s all there. We needed adapters for continental plugs - no problem - got three! The beds (we had room 5 with two separate beds) are great. Long enough for a 6 foot person, not too soft and not to hard, with a fluffy blanket a good nights sleep was guaranteed!But the best was the service. The team is as friendly as it can get. Everyone is looking after giving you an easy, pleasant stay.Restaurant: the included breakfast is great. You can hardly ask for more. We also had dinner at ‘Saltfish’, the restaurant at the hotel. The food is very good and so is the variety of offered dishes. They serve non-fish as well as vegetarian. There is also a small bar, but we didn’t try any drinks.Summed up: highest recommendations for the Houndgate Townhouse and the restaurant!!

Fantastic experience, excellent service. Just perfect for meeting up with friends to catch up and have a lovely meal. We did have to vacate the table to make way for the next booking but we were provided with a table elsewhere to have coffee and finish off our trip perfectly. Highly recommended!

Fabulous seafood restaurant, stylish interior, pleasant service and wonderful food. I had the special starter of sardines and then Whitby dressed crab and it was delicious. Tables are quite close together and it can be a bit noisy, but otherwise a great place for Sunday lunch.

Arrived for lunch with a friend, placed our order, taken by the lovely waitress Erica, fish and batter was beautiful.Erica was friendly, professional, caring and we didn't feel rushed. She had the perfect attentive balance, even filling our glasses up when noticing they were empty......she's a credit to your business, pay her more!

I had lunch with 2 friends and we tried the set menu. The food and service was excellent and the decor and ambience of the room first class. The staff were friendly and helpful and very efficient and courteous. I would definitely recommend it and will return in the near future.
