The Neighbourhood in County Durham

Un poco decepcionante teniendo en cuenta todas las críticas de 5 *. Aunque el lugar es agradable, WiFi gratuito y descuento para estudiantes, la calidad de la comida les decepcionó gravemente. Sin embargo, me gustaría mencionar que el personal era amable, pero ninguno revisó la comida o nos preguntó cómo era. Había pedido 3 por £ 15 con hummus de pimienta, falafels y bocados de hachís marrón. Huelga decir que me dieron marrones de hachís crudos, el humus de pimienta se extendió por la masa madre, lo que lo hizo un poco descuidado. Supuse que habría llegado como masa madre del lado del hummus. Lo intenté en todas partes una vez, y tristemente en esta ocasión fue realmente decepcionante.

Mi novia y yo nos encanta este lugar! siempre venimos aquí a estudiar : 3 bebidas súper agradables y descuento estudiantil! el personal también es siempre absolutamente encantador, 10 / 10 experiencia

Hemos estado aquí un par de veces y el personal es siempre súper político y servicial. El café es irreal y las opciones veganas son fantásticas, pero el personal lo hace un ambiente tan relajado y cálido. Durham tiene un montón de cafeterías decentes, pero ninguno de ellos tiene tan acogedor personal como aquí. También hay un montón de diferentes áreas de estar para disfrutar de su comida / bebidas en para adaptarse a la vibra que desea. Me gusta el cuarto de atrás para estudiar y el sofá para cuando me estoy relajando. También tienen una gran selección de refrescos, opciones de desayuno / almuerzo, alcohol, café, pasteles ect, y un gran esquema de lealtad. ¡También los estudiantes obtienen un 10% de descuento!

Después de nuestra llegada a media tarde y check-in en el Durham's Hotel Indigo, mi esposa y yo tuvimos un tiempo para matar antes de que nuestra habitación estuviera lista, así que, sintiéndonos picoteados, decidimos aprovechar lo que se ofrecía en la convenientemente ubicada Neighbourhood Coffee House y no nos decepcionaron. A pesar de la deliciosa y satisfactoria tarta casera del día y el excelente café que se ofrece, el servicio que recibimos de Harper, el joven empleado en servicio de mostrador en ese momento, fue ejemplar en todos los aspectos. Su manera acogedora y su eficiencia amable ponen nuestras vacaciones de tres días en el mejor de los pies y ella merece cada plaudit que sin duda viene en su camino.

Fuimos aquí para reunirnos con un grupo de caminantes antes de salir. El servicio fue excelente, el personal es increíblemente amable y atento y se hizo tiempo para tener una conversación con todos nosotros. Tomé un café negro y esto fue perfecto, lo suficientemente fuerte para mantenerme en marcha durante todo el día y de muy buena calidad. Recomendaría a cualquiera que visite Durham que desvíe las grandes cadenas de marcas que están salpicadas por la ciudad y le dé una visita al equipo en el vecindario.

This place is great and why we go every Saturday morning when we are out walking and again on a Monday when we are free! The latte is the best around, the food is wonderful and all the staff are brilliant. We have never had a bad experience. And if you have a blue light card, there is a 10% discount!!! Absolutely superb! Thank you everyone at The Neighbourhood, you deserve an award!!

Really nice cafe with friendly staff and very good coffee. I would highly recommend! Very central location and nice atmosphere

I'm really glad to have taken a punt and tried out The Neighborhood. It's become a regular haunt when I'm in town. Nothing is an afterthought. It's like they've imagined their own perfect coffee shop and done everything they can to make it happen. Phil and his team can be very proud of their success so far, and judging by the reviews I'm not the only one who thinks so. But if you haven't been in yet... You'll walk in and get a great first impression. It's such a bright, clean and spacious environment. Then you'll get a warm and genuine welcome from Phil and his dedicated team, who clearly love what they do and want you to have the best experience every time. If you take a four-legged friend they will be included too. They're not just dog-friendly, they're dog lovers. Take a look at the Paparazzi wall to see a few of the many four-legged regulars. If you're looking for breakfast, lunch or something sweet and indulgent then you'll be spoiled for choice. Their breakfast and lunch offerings always hit the spot and I'll be back soon very soon for a pre-walk breakfast wrap. The coffee, courtesy of local and ethically sourced roasters Fika, is always superb. Next time I'm in I will be sure to buy another bag to take home. Finally, they're really working hard to be a community-conscious business. Their support for Man Up Durham - a brand new wellbeing initiative in the area - has been particularly generous and wholehearted. Well done everyone!

Very friendly staff, good food too. We had some plates to share and a toastie which was just about the perfect amount of food :)

Tried few things in here but my absolute favourite was the cherry pie ! Reasonably priced menu and friendly staff. Recommend highly

Catered well for our children, reasonable prices for great healthy food, delicious cakes served in beautiful surroundings. Helpful, friendly staff . Returned next day for lunch again!

Great place. People are friendly, atmosphere is really nice and coffees and food is good. In fact, my food stayed hot through a fire alarm.

Staff are always friendly. Dog friendly. Very clean. Overall an excellent experience Brilliant city centre location

Took my brother and sister in law on first week of December 2023, they are visiting North East for a week. We stopped here for coffee before heading up to Gala Theatre to watch a show. Ordered chicken wing and served by Eni. She was very chatty and bubbly. After she served our drinks and snack Eni keep coming over to our table to make sure we all are catered for. Would really recommend this cafe, friendly faces and lots of space / seats to chill out. Thank you Eni, we will come back again.

Visited the coffee shop with my family. The kids love the lemon drizzle cake me and my wife had the best coffee prepared by the lovely Eni, she was very kind and she was looking out for me because Im lactose intolerant and she offered me a variety of plant based options. Very nice place, we loved it and we will come back for sure.

My kids and I frequently visit here. The cakes are always so fresh and tasty. Particularly memorable with the little ones! The batista that served us was Sarah and she is always a delight. Thank you very much to Sarah and the rest of the team for running such a lovely coffee shop and hotel. Merry Christmas 🎅 xx

We had a wonderful overnight stay recently, we decided to have a coffee & cake in the coffee shop. What fabulous service, the young lady who served us was called Sarah, her customer service was second to none, she was so accommodating. We will definitely pop in the next time we’re in Durham. Thank you!

Hery nice people, friendly and funny ! Loved the place and Eni’s coffee are the best! Recommend it !

Eni was very friendly and polite and made me feel very welcome as i was on my own. Would like to bring my family next time.

Visited your shop recently with my family. Eni's warm hospitality towards our daughter and patient menu explanations made our experience delightful. The service was not only quick but also efficient, and discovering that I could apply my student discount was an added bonus!

Went for a coffee after christmas shopping. It’s a lovely place especially the Lady called Eni, who was very friendly and helpful with my baby. We’ll definitely going back.

the service they have is super good, super friendly employees! and they have the best coffee around!!

Best coffee , cakes and friendly staff,Eni in particular. Well worth a visit. When visiting Durham it's a must.

I went to visit friends & had a tour around Durham & I found this gem to have a coffee and cake. The service was kind and fast, they explained me so clear somethings about the rest of the menu.

Best coffe ever have! Eni was very kind and careful. Very nice place, I love it and I will repeat sure.

Had my lunch here with my wife and the food and service was fantastic! I asked for a slight change to my meal and nothing was an issue for Eni, who made us feel very welcome and was prompt taking our orders. Then we had the cakes for dessert and they were tremendous! Will be returning again soon.

Called in for a quick coffee whilst in the area. Place was nice and staff friendly. Think the young lady who served us was called Sarah and she couldn't have been more helpful. We'll definitely call in again.

A wonderful find tucked within hotel Indigo. The staff are so friendly, very obliging and it has a really warm atmosphere. Lovely that students, locals and visitors share the space. 4/5 stars because the side-salads are served without oil or a dressing. Plain leaves are...
