What is the best beer garden in the area?

Welly in Billingham is good after it was done out just before covid.

The Kings down the road has a good garden but it attracts some idiots.

My favourite? I’m heading to in about an hour, but I’m not going to say where it is. As it’s fantastic, not over crowded, and not full of people intent on getting off their faces on powder. Better kept on the down low. 👍

No, but that’s a decent shout.
I was in the Fox and Hounds in Neasham village earlier, usually very nice, but I got out of there when they started inflating a bouncy castle 🤣

I don’t mind the Welly like you said either
 
I suppose these days I don’t have a local, but I do go in the Green Dragon which I can walk to in Bedale.
It serves good food and I like the Estella (brewed in Barcelona) . The Green Dragon has a garden and shows the big TV too.
 
I'm told the Devonport at Middleton One row has a nice beer garden now and we were going to give it a whirl this weekend but the good lady has come down with a virus so that's a no go. The place is more hotel / restaurant than out and out pub.

I go in there sometimes, never seen the garden!
 
The yarm beer gardens are awful - keys especially

But this thread also begs the question - what makes a good beer garden?

Sunshine all day for one - so sputh facing, what else?

Lack of people vaping every two seconds, customers having 20 plus UCAS points, lack of tattoos on arms, nice selection of real ales, a water feature/river etc, plenty of seats and toilet facilities. Bonus points for nice food and sky tv.

The Keys is an excellent beer garden for me. Is it because it's not sputh facing😂

UCAS points, I love that - made me chuckle

What’s a UCAS point?

Definitely want to avoid the his and hers tattoos brigade, vapers and cokeheads and anyone in gymwear
