The best restaurants in Lanchester County Durham North East

A lovely gift shop overlooking the pretty village green. A tasty treat of cheese and onion toasties (4 triangles) and a side salad for only £2.50.....they also do baked potatoes with as many fillings and side salad for £2.50....a selection of snacks and deserts (pancakes, ice cream, steam pudding, custard)Also a delightful gift shop with lots of gifts and cards. Pet portraits done for only £15.00. Such a lovely little shop.

Once again amazing food, atmosphere and lovely staff. Always a pleasure to dine here, never disappointed. Highly recommend.

A very calming atmosphere to enjoy good food and coffee!

Great place it was my 1st time here it’s got great food and a good selection of drinks at very affordable prices also has very friendly staff I will definitely be going back here

I base my review on a blueberry and almond slice and a Cappuccino, costing £6.20 Cappuccino was too milky & the cake slice was nice. The highlight was seeing the goats. 🐐

Loved this place but unfortunately it has closed down , the food was always delicious and very reasonable

Current favourite stopover place in the uk. Everything was great. Try to travel down the east coast as an excuse to stay the night.

Excellent customer service, so friendly, helpful, and attentive. Food was absolutely first class, loads of it and very well presented.

What a lovely homely pub. A nice place to go and chill out. Highly recommend it.

This is my favourite place for brunch in Durham. Latte is perfect, service is quick and the cheese and onion toasties are just delicious. Prices are really reasonable. Range of toasties, paninis and cakes. Woukd definitely recommend.

Paninis soft like bread. No crispness at all. No side salad or crisps apparently due to waste. You can pay for it though. Soft panini looked very sad on its own (and expensive). Surely you could ask customer when they order if they want side salad, then it wouldn’t be a waste !!!!

Hotcakes awesome, potatoes awesome, chill atmosphere. Our waitress happy and smiley which is a plus all the time. Recommended place

Not the best. My donna was OK but the wife's chicken was curry flavoured and dry. Neither bread had been on a hot plate. Wouldn't recommend I'm afraid.

Took ages to have our order taken and for the food to arrive. Food was oily and overcooked.

Disappointing takeaway. The Pita was cold and like rubber, it contained very little chicken which was tough, and was doused with what tasted like cheap bottled garlic sauce.
