The best restaurants in County Durham North East

I had the best sandwich I’ve ever had at Mes in Sedgefield ( Prosciutto, Brie & Rocket with a Balsamic drizzle on a warm Ciabatta ) The ingredients were so fresh, and the flavours were just perfect. The staff were incredibly polite and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Great atmosphere and excellent service—I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Have been back here now a couple of times recently. Being honest Indian was not usually our first choice for a meal out but this place has converted us. We were there last night. I had Lamb Kundan Kaliyan and my husband had Lamb Byriani and both were absolutely delicious. It was one of the best plates of food I have had. The service is second to none. Would recommend.

Amazing! First off, the staff are so friendly. They never hesitate to answer any questions and make you feel so welcome, no matter the day/time. The decor and the atmosphere are great. I keep finding new details to admire. Love the surprise in the ladies’ loo as well! 🤫✨ The new menu is to die for! Gorgeous. I hate to admit I’ve had two burgers in the space of a week but can’t resist. This isn’t bog standard stuff - this is a menu that’s been properly thought through and they’ve thought outside the box! Unique things I haven’t seen before - super tasty. Try it all. The cocktail menu is equally fab - loads of choice and beautifully presented.

Excellent! I had a lovely time at the establishment. The staff were really warm and friendly. Definitely visiting here again.

Perfect place for a catch up. The food choices are great and the portions are amazing. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food was served quickly and efficiently. Will definitely be going again.

Had the most amazing festive afternoon tea here with friends. Everything was delicious & a party member with coeliac disease was well looked after. Nothing was too much trouble. I believe that everything was made with love....sign of the best establishmets.

Had fabulous food with friends! Staff very welcoming & all of our meals were excellent. We were deciding what we might have on our next visit 😊

Finally, got round to trying this place after reading several reviews and was not Disappointed! This place offers delivery, take out and has a small seating area up stairs. The menu is full of a variety of Asian inspired dishes and is very well priced. Myself and my partner tried the katsu pork and honey chilli chicken, both meals were delicious! & I cant wait to try some of the other meals available. The staff were very friendly and ran the service very efficiently, considering they were up and down the stairs serving food and cleaning the other tables. Will definitely return 😃

I visited yesterday with family to celebrate my Mother in Laws' 90th Birthday and WOW!!! What can I say but from start to finish our experience was top notch. My Mother in law is particularly hard to please and she loved it. The beef was amazing, I believe that the owners also have the award winning Butchers just 2 doors down the street and you can tell. The gravy was thick and rich and reminded me of My Grans home cooked Sunday Dinner. The veg was cooked to perfection and the Yorkshire puddings were huge. The deserts were amazing, we had the sticky toffee pudding and the red velvet cake which were so full of flavour. The staff couldn't have been more helpful keeping us informed of a slight wait for our food which is to be expected when everything is freshly cooked for you. This is not fast food - Its great food. The price was also very reasonable for such obvious quality.

Lovely food, well presented, good value for money-Staff lovely and friendly. Can’t wait for the summer weather-will be a lovely spot!

I now have had 3 orders from here.The pizzas & parmos have been excellent every time.They even send a text when your order is ready for collection. Payment is cash only.

Si estás en Durham y te apetece una gran relación calidad-precio, comida deliciosa y fresca - dingsway es genial. Hemos vuelto varias veces y es increíble. La tempura es deliciosa, ligera y crujiente. El restaurante es pequeño pero es acogedor. El servicio es rápido y hecho a pedido cada vez. Posiblemente el mejor restaurante en Durham

First time visit to Paws for 5 , had an excellent morning Kaiser our 18 week old Rottweiler puppy throughly enjoyed himself. We both had a lovely fried breakfast, tea and Lattes at very reasonable prices.

Fantastic food. Really fresh and good quality food. This is a must visit outlet we are definitely going back to try out more of the menu.

Recently moved back to the area and have been here 3 times. This place really is superb and deserves every 5 star review it gets. Freshly cooked fish and great chips and cooked while you wait or by phone order. Sets a very high standard, hence the queues and the phone that never stops ringing. We love it - a real treat.
