Nice restuarant, good service, mostly decent food except deep fried chicken and chicken prepared on a stick (can't recall exact description) - these were that awful re-constituted or re-formed chicken and really should not be served up to you when you're paying top dollar food prices. Please note that the service charge will be included on your bill - we would have preferred to be informed of this before ordering, in fact , we thought it was a bit cheeky. All in all very average and we will not hurry back.
The Dragon Inn is situated in the Old Village of Cramlington, the location being quite good as there are a few bars close by for a pre or post dinner drink.Although I usually reserve ahead, I don't normally have a problem getting booked in. This is not to say that it is unpopular; the restaurant is quite large.The staff are always very friendly (though with most Chinese Restaurants, rather formal) and the service was very efficient.The food is delicious and I would highly recommend one of their banquet meals.If anything, I would say the restaurant is due a facelift as it is looking a little worn at the edges!
