Went for a late dinner on a Friday eve. The food was really good and staff knew the menu well and helped to make choices. Staff really attentive, not overbearing and approachable. Atmosphere reallg good. Decided to go back the following night for last night of the trip. Truly superb. Will be back again in the future.
Lovey evening, the pizza and the pasta were great and the service from the team was amazing.
Wow! What can I say! I’m new to the area and it was my birthday. Emma and the gang didn’t disappoint. From the decorations to the friendly atmosphere I had an amazing time!
Beautiful place! Such a warm, wonderful welcome from all the staff when you arrive. Very accommodating, friendly and outstanding service levels. Food and drink were fantastic! Absolutely delighted to have found this place, definitely coming back again soon. Thank you so much xx
Had the most fabulous evening at Darcy’s last night celebrating my big birthday with 8 of my friends 🎉 From start to finish we were so well looked after — such a lovely atmosphere, great service, and a real celebratory feel. We ended the night with cocktails, which were absolutely perfect and such a fun way to finish the evening 🍸✨ Thank you to Nicki and the team for helping make it such a memorable night — we all had a fantastic time and will definitely be back 🤍 Kim & Scott Allen Xx
A lovely first visit for lunch. We shared a vegetarian pizza, whitebait and vegetable tempura and had Ava-go-go smoothies with ginger shots to drink. All really tasty. There was too much to eat and so we took some away in this lovely pizza box and a bag with a thoughtful, hand written message. Emma was fantastic as our waitress. We will definitely be returning.
Spent my daughters birthday there and food was amazing, excellent service by AD our waiter for the evening and made the best cocktails!!!
The food was great they offer gluten-free,vegan and vegetarian alternatives. The service was brilliant I have to give a big thank you to the kitchen team and the waiting staff especially the South African man, but he could do with some better jokes. 😂

Went in just for a spot of food for a birthday dinner. The staff and service was just absolutely fantastic. The nicest people i have ever met. Got a true love for the job and really wanting to interact with myself and my friend. The food was to die for. Really reasonable prices and the portions are massive. Cannot fault one thing about here. Really made our night. Thank you so much again!

Perfect fries and burger and I personally love the smoked paprika dusting the plates come with. Decent amount of choice on the menu and the staff are lovely.
Amazing Service, great place for food with family. Every meal amazing The team were great, very attentive and offered great service and lots of laughs
Great atmosphere and fantastic service
staff are always so lovely, food never ever disappoints, and it’s one of our favourite spots in the area! hugely recommend visiting for brunch!
The staff were so friendly and attentive. The food came out quickly and was delicious. Will be back.
Had brunch at Darcy’s as always it didn’t disappoint Good service, great food, what else is there! We will back again
8 friend’s get together for an evening meal … great food great atmosphere and great service especially from Della..!!
The food is delicious and the service is excellent!
Wunderschöner Laden, sehr nette Ambiente, gutes Essen und sehr gute Cocktails 🍸. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich. Sehr empfehlenswert.
DELICIOUS coffee aside (seriously, spot on!!), the staff are the highlight. Our boxing day canal hike ended up here, where they smashed our welcome and refuel; will definitely be making this a routine trip.
Always great on Xmas Eve
Brilliant food, especially the Tapas. The hanging lamb kebab was excellent. Very friendly atmosphere.
We ordered the avocado, eggs benedict on toast (£13.50) and the duck waffle (£15). The waffle was sweeter than expected but still good. Service was really good too.
I went to Darcys tonight for the first time, I could not get a table as fully booked so was able to order food to takeaway, the gentleman who served me was polite, friendly, helpful, nothing was too much trouble, ordered a pint of pale ale while waiting 😀 Venue was nice inside, staff friendly, pizzas tasted really good and were ready super quick! Thank you so much, will definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant, Adam 😀
Amazing bottomless brunch!! Attentive and caring staff!!!!
We came for brunch for my daughter's birthday. The service was impeccable and the staff were so friendly and attentive! My mum is disabled and they were very accommodating and I also bought my dogs who got treated to puppachino's! We had Darcey's breakfasts and the duck waffle which were huge and definitely good value for money. At the end my daughter got treated to a surprise birthday cake with huge sparkler! I would highly recommend ❤️❤️❤️
Waitress Nikki2 is a star
Tapas at Darcy’s is made for sharing, talking, and taking your time.
You’ll find favourites like patatas bravas, sizzling garlic prawns, chorizo, and calamari, alongside seasonal specials that change through the year.
Each dish is freshly cooked and packed with flavour, designed so you can mix, match, and make a meal your own.
Pair it with a glass of wine or one of our cocktails, sit back by the marina, and enjoy a little taste of the Mediterranean right here in Apsley.
At Darcy’s restaurant, food is all about flavour, freshness, and time well spent. Our menu brings together Mediterranean-style Tapas, stone-baked pizzas, seafood, and grilled dishes, all prepared fresh in our kitchen.
Whether you’re joining us for a light lunch, a family meal, or dinner with friends, everything is served with care and plenty of character.
You can sit inside and enjoy the lively atmosphere, or choose a table outside by the marina when the sun’s out. It’s a space that feels relaxed and welcoming whatever the occasion.
Once you’ve finished your meal, take a short stroll next door to our bar and carry on the evening with a cocktail, wine, or something cold from the tap.
