Friendly 17th century pub serving good home-cooked food, real ales and beers.
This is one of Durham's oldest inns, dating back to at least 1600, and is reputed to have two ghosts. The interior comprises an L-shaped bar and a top room linked by stairs. A friendly pub, it attracts a good mix including locals, students and visitors to the city. Enjoy a good range of ales and home-cooked food, the Wednesday quiz (arrive early), and a folk group on Mondays and Tuesdays. Local CAMRA branch Town Pub of the Year 2015 and 2016.
Gorgeous little pub, great reasonably priced selection of drinks. Food is unbelievable. Staff can not do more for you if they tried. Lovely little fire to sit by on the colder days. Warm Cosey environment
This is my favourite pub and although it’s not technically my local, it’s so friendly and welcoming that I really do feel like a local. It’s dog friendly with indoor and outdoor space, good selection of drinks and the best thing is the Sunday dinners. 4 out of 5 of my family are vegan and the Sunday roasts are fab and very filling. My number one pub in Durham. Oh the log burners in winter are just so cosy too. Proper traditional local pub.
Visited at a very busy time but the staff were friendly and patient . Service was very good and didn't feel rushed. Real hand pump beer which was vy good and the food was exceptional. Thank you everyone at the pub. You are a great team and have a lovely pub.
Fantastic pub, such a warm welcome. Had the most amazing steak pie. It was legendary!
I visited this pub twice while in Durham, nice locals pub with a friendly welcome.
