Fantastic food! Absolutely loved their menu! .. 3 days in Durham and ate here 3 times. Brilliant pub, (apart from Ladies toilets downstairs, steep stairs, they were quite tricky for me.)

I do have a soft spot for this place, but I'm guessing that's down to my age, I'm in my 6th decade. Nice place for a bite to eat at lunchtime and we generally end up here at some point on a night out. A couple more real ales wouldn't go a miss, but I'm a cider guy currently and there's generally one of two decent ones available. If you like a decent old school pub, this is a pretty good place to go.

Bought a round of 4 drinks. Mine was an IPA which was warm. I had a couple of gulps but decided to take it back. I went to the bar and informed the Manager that the IPA didn’t taste right as it was warm and he informed me that, that’s the temperature it should be served!. I ask to change to Guinness and he proceeded to pour the Guinness and then ask for payment. I said I wanted a refund on the IPA to which he said I’d drank too much to warrant a refund. So I took a picture of the drink and said I would complain, as a result the Manger refused to serve me at all! Very poor customer service.

We really enjoyed our visit in this lovely tavern,we managed to find a table up the stairs as others were leaving.Then 6 lovely ladies muscled in and we ended up on the end of the table!!! We had a great time with them and really enjoyed their company.some of them were drinking Guinness with TiaMaria in it.Proper fun girls on a binge and food outing,thank you ladies,xxx.

Called in for food and a drink Monday afternoon. It was fairly quiet. Nice convenient location next to the indoor market. The food was nice. The pub is quaint and oldie worldie with unusual music playing. The ladies toilet were down steps which were slightly difficult to get to. Bar staff were helpful and friendly. Used blue light card so it wasn't as expensive. My steak and ale pie was filling with the mash. My daughter loved her steak although it didn't look too much for the money and was supposed to be medium rare. All in all a lovely stop off though in the middle of a day out in Durham.
