It’s officially pumpkin season at The Spotted Dog! 🎃🍂

Our lovely Events Manager Charity has been on a very important mission… pumpkin picking! 👀

She popped over to our neighbours at Baydale Farm - Darlington, who have the most wonderful pumpkin patch, to find some autumnal treasures to bring a little seasonal magic to the restaurant. 🍁

And let’s just say… she understood the assignment! 😂🎃

We love supporting our local businesses, especially when it involves a field full of pumpkins and an excuse to get creative with the decorations!

A big thank you to Baydale Farm for the autumn inspiration. 🧡

Have you spotted our new autumn decorations yet? 👀

A little autumn sweetness, courtesy of Chef Ewan! 🍐🍂

Our talented Chef de Partie Ewan is behind the pass, putting the finishing touches on one of our new seasonal desserts.

Poached pears, maple mascarpone cream and milk cake. 🤤

Delicate, creamy and full of comforting autumn flavours — a lovely little way to finish your meal.

Hit play to watch Ewan work his magic! 👨‍🍳✨

And the big question… are you saving room for dessert? 👀🤎

It looks like our Olive Room glow-up will have to wait just a little longer! 🙈

Due to a few unexpected hiccups with the building work, we’ve decided to put the renovations on hold until January/February, so we can keep the festive season disruption-free. 🎄

But there’s a silver lining… 🥂

Our Olive Room is now available for private bookings again throughout October and November! 🎉

So, if you’re planning a birthday, family get-together, wedding celebration, work event or simply need an excuse to gather your favourite people, we’d love to hear from you!

We know we’ve had to turn down a few enquiries recently, so if you’re still looking for the perfect space, get back in touch! 🤎

The bigger and better Olive Room is still coming… just fashionably late! 😂✨

So, who’s joining you for lunch? 👀
