About Cherry Tree Kitchen & Cocktail Bar
Cherry Tree Kitchen & Cocktail Bar is a tapas restaurant and cocktail bar in Darlington, at 8 Blackwellgate. The menu is built around Greek-style tapas dishes, including kleftiko, so a table can share several plates while ordering from the cocktail bar alongside.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the food, with the kleftiko singled out as close to a home Greek recipe and portions described as big. Staff are repeatedly called friendly, helpful and welcoming, and one Sunday lunch diner found the upstairs lovely despite a loud, full downstairs. The one complaint is a tiny pot of extra gravy that barely covered a Yorkshire pudding.
