Three Crowns

The Three Crowns is located in a densely populated residential area, just outside the main centre of Darlington. Darlington is a large traditional market down with a high population and heavy footfall of visitors. The demographic is largely working class with pockets of more upmarket populations.

Pub Layout

On entering the pub, you are welcomed by a split vestibule, providing access to both areas of the pub along with access to the private accommodation. To the right you will find the main bar room with a mixture of fixed and loose seating, along with wall mounted televisions for live sporting events. To the rear of the pub there is a games area housing a pool table and more televisions, along with access to the rear yard fitted with seating and a smoking solution. To the left of the pub there is the lounge bar with a mixture of fixed and loose seating and carpeted flooring creating a relaxing ambience. The bar itself is an ‘L’ shaped bar located in the heart of the pub, servicing all areas.

The Three Crowns is a well presented wet led community local with an extremely strong following of clientele. The current offer has something for everyone, with a mixture of live sporting events with BT Sports and SKY, supporting a number of pool and darts teams along with bingo and quizzes throughout the week and basically acts as a superb community hub for locals.
