The best restaurants in Elvet County Durham North East

I treated my friend for her birthday to tea here. Absolutely amazing, delicious home made cakes, scones and sandwiches. The atmosphere is really warm and welcoming and well worth a return visit.

Following our mid-afternoon arrival and check-in at Durham’s Hotel Indigo, my wife and I had some time to kill before our room was ready so, feeling peckish, we decided to take advantage of what was on offer in the conveniently located Neighbourhood Coffee House and we were not disappointed. Notwithstanding the delicious and satisfying homemade pie of the day and excellent coffee on offer, the service we received from Harper, the young employee on counter duty at the time, was exemplary in every respect. Her welcoming manner and friendly efficiency put our three day break on the best of footings and she deserves every plaudit that doubtless comes her way.

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 😃

My husband and I were staying at the travelodge, station road, Durham and decided we would walk into Durham for something to eat. We spotted the Little Sicily Italian restaurant just in front of the hotel and decided to grab a pizza. I can recommend the food, the pizza was lovely and staff very pleasant. If you're staying at the travelodge go no further, try the Little Sicily Italian restaurant.

Realising we wouldn't have time for a sit down meal before catching the train home from Durham we found this great place on the way back to the station. Good vegetarian hot options katsu pumpkin, tofu or cauliflower or spicy tofu served with either rice or noodles. We went for the large pumpkin katsu to share. We also grabbed some premade vegetarian sushi rolls ( tofu cucumber and red pepper) as well aa cucumber maki from the fridge. These both came with sachets of soy sauce, pickled ginger, wasabi and 3 edamame pods as well as a small plastic pot for the soy sauce. A delicious takeaway dinner to complete our day in Durham. You definitely need to highlight on trip advisor that you offer good vegetarian and vegan choices.

He visto estos chicos en un mercado de alimentos en Durham. La comida no era de este mundo, de lejos, el mejor Pad Thai que he probado jamás. Probaría el Facebook nenas para encontrar dónde están al lado y definitivamente y vea, bien merece una visita!!

We’re not vegans, merely vegetarians! However it was a lovely surprise to stumble across this stall whilst on a walk around Durham. Whilst not hungry at the time, we bought some pastries and a scotch egg for later, purely because it was nice to see a trader specialising in meat free (or in this case vegan) products and not someone making a token effort. All of of our food tasted awesome and we’ll definitely make a point of visiting here to try something else the next time we are in Durham.

I have now been to Wishbone a few times and I have never been disappointed. The atmosphere, drinks and starters are all individually incredible and come together to create the perfect segway into the best chicken you can find in Durham. For a very reasonable price, get ready to have your mind blown. Incredible flavours and unique combinations… my personal favourite is the Sichuan pepper wing. I cannot recommend it enough, and even better - you can order alongside all the phenomenal food found in Barrio Comida, above!

Came here for breakfast as it was one of the few places around that opens for 8am. It was good value and had a nice selection of vegetarian hot food options, and friendly staff.

Great chicken in a nice coating a type of kfc venue but more personal. An up stairs area where you can eat is basic but ok Good value for money

Ate here whilst staying in Durham for the weekend. Really enjoyed the full tasting menu and allowed switching between vegetarian and main menu for Pescatarian diet. Good range of dishes and flavours. Service was excellent too. Would recommend.

I had a breakfast sausage, bacon and egg with cheese and it was great, quality products; Even the egg mayo I grabbed for lunch time tasted fresh 🙂

You walk in passed a few outside tables up the internal stairs to a packed room that has a buzz about it. If you're into gardening there is a beautiful display of house plants in various containers. It was pa ked and we waited ten minutes for a table, but the turnover is quick and staff are efficient. We only had coffee and cake but will decorate go back for lunch having seen everyone else eating.

My partner took me for a special meal and we had a lovely time due to the first class service, great ambience and outstanding food. Great for meat lovers.

I've been a regular customer at Shaheens for many years, and I can attest that the quality of food, service and overall experience is always consistently excellent. I often enjoy a meal here with my family, and I regularly bring business visitors from overseas who are left with a fantastic impression of the culinary magic that is on offer at Shaheens. special thanks to Tanmay for recommending good food.
