Ginger Dog in County Durham

First time at The Ginger Dog today for a birthday bash. Roast dinner and sticky toffee pud were amazing. Part of a large party and the service was amazing. Would highly recommend !!!

What a find! We were travelling to Belford Northumberland and stopped off for food and a rest. Found this pub after we googled nearest dog friendly pubs off the A1. Staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Loved our dogs and plenty of buscuits were had! Lovely pub interior, clean and spacious. We arrived at the end of service, but Norma gave us several options. We chose one shepherd's pie, one lasagne. These meals were fresh, hot and delicious. Proper home made food. Highly recommend this pub. Wish we could have stopped later, as Dolly Parton tribute was due!!! Thanks to all of you. See you on next trip!

A Sunday well spent brings a week of content and what better way to do this than a late afternoon/early evening at The Ginger Dog with good friends, snacks and a few bevvies whilst listening to some fabulous music with a live artist. This week was the fabulous Karl Herbert. Fully booked but the staff remain cheerful and helpful e en when under pressure. Always best to pre book as they are so busy especially on a Sunday or when they have live artistes.

Turned up Sunday afternoon picked a table and order was taken, a few minutes later a rather rude and loud lady member of staff informed us that as we had not booked a table we would have to leave as they did not have enough food to feed us , nowhere could we see on the signs outside it was booked tables only . Disappointed and definitely won’t be venturing back . We found a lovely pub called The Avenue where we had a very enjoyable meal and would recommend them .

We visited for a family birthday Sunday lunch on 18 August. The food was excellent with top quality meats, beef was delicious, and veg which were served piping hot by a lovely friendly team. Highly recommend for the best lunch we've had recently in the new conservatory.

This is my 3rd time here for Sunday dinner, food is perfect every time, staff are always friendly and straight over to take our order, less than 10 minutes to get our dinner, i think ive found my new place for Sunday dinners 😋

Food was lovely and staff were extremely friendly. Food was made quickly and still piping hot and hen it arrived. Highly recommend

Group of 15, excellent service last night from Maria and Tracy food was great and they were very attentive nothing was a bother

Amazing atmosphere and food and the ladies, Maria and Tracy could not have been more helpful; attentive and friendly. Highly recommend not just for the great food but the exceptional staff!

We recently had a large company meal, and it was outstanding. Despite our group size, the service was impressively fast and efficient. The food was amazing, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was perfect for a group gathering—lively yet comfortable. We'll definitely be returning for future events. Highly recommended! Big thank you to Maria and Tracey.
