The best restaurants in Murton County Durham North East

Wow, wow, wow. This was a very wonderful surprise to dine here. We were expecting average/ good pub food and we got restaurant standard wonderful food. The cod fish dish was exceptionally good, and the chocolate expresso ice cream pudding was divine. What a fabulous place…. and just wish we lived locally. The very delightful waitress made our visit even more lovely. This was the best meal we have had in the Durham area.

Great fish and chips restaurant at Dalton park, really good and helpful staff 🙂

So after 4 hours waiting for a delivery we went to bed. They wouldn’t answer the phone or messages and didn’t bother to get in touch. Apparently (according to my neighbour) the food did arrive 5.5 hours after ordering.

We took ny husbands mother who is in a carehome & has dementia for a day out. We stopped for a drink & ice cream. I asked if they could do a small glass of milk...that they have for their milkshakes. They said they didn't have enough & to try the cafe next door, who do...milky coffee's..Latte's in posh speak, who also had no milk... We stayed & bought an ice cream anyway. My mother-in-law spilt ice cream & had it over her hands so I asked the young lady/person at the parlour counter for a wet paper towel/cloth, anyone would've thought i'd asked for a free ice cream! The older lady/person was quietly but obviously sarcasstic & rude that i'd dare ask for a wet cloth/paper towel. Absolutely agree, if they don't sell milk as part of their menu they had every right to say no, but a milkshake is.. flavoured milk. It was more about their attitude. Rude & dissrespectful

we went to the only available pub with a pool of table only to find it covered over for a jam session.loud rock music that was very bad.very expensive place plus lets in young people that causes a bit of an edgy atmosphere no food on offer.very poor place

Very good food. Decided to give this place a go the other week. We had a box meal and salt/pepper fries. It was tasty. The place inside doesn't look the most advertising, reason for dropping a star.

Lovely customer service from Coral and Laura

Coffee nice and hot and the muffin delicious as usual. S'mores Frappe got top marks from my son

Good coffee and a nice sit down when shopping at Dalton Park.

Good and cheap local boozer. Canny locals in there as well

delicious food and piping hot !

Slow service, 2 cakes were stale, hot chocolate didn't taste right and wasn't hot, latte was average, chips were soggy and toastie was gripping with grease. Well overpriced at 26 pounds. Bad experience won't be returning.

Ordered caramel waffle latte and a Chelsea bun for myself, my friend ordered a vegan coffee and cake, by the time we’d picked up our cakes my friends’ vegan coffee was ready and a queue of people had formed so we took a seat and waited, and waited and waited. So having seen so many customers come in and get their drinks instantly I went back to ask for my caramel waffle latte, first of all I was told it had already gone out and the assistant was kind of trying to ignore me as she just continued with more orders, then she snapped ok I’ll make another but she continued with other orders and as the next person she called returned to the counter with a coffee she’d had some time and been drinking, the Starbucks assistant took her cup and tried to pass it to me saying it must be mine! I was horrified and said I don’t want someone else’s coffee, it’s already been partially consumed and handled by another customer so not hygienic but also we’re in the middle of a pandemic. She made me wait a while then passed a cup, looking nothing like the caramel waffle latte on the posters and not knowing if she’d topped up the other cup I retired to the table where my friend had finished her coffee & cake alone, so I ate my then sad dry bun and as I was leaving spoke to a supervisor about the lack of customer service, care and food hygiene safety. I asked for the branch number snd name as I wanted to put in an official complaint but was told the web address would find them, the assistant would be spoken to about making me wait and given a card for a free drink. I’ve mailed the complaints department but 10 days later not heard a thing - we won’t be visiting starbucks anytime soon, I don’t think it’s safe!!!

Worst service ever! Today 22/09/09 at 2.08pm I’m absolutely fuming, ordered take out food with my kids and our sides were missing. Drove back literally 1min later to ask for our sides . The girl at the till disappears then moments later the girl who “packed “ the order comes and says “I packed the order, and put your sides!” At my grown age with kids in my car, lying and hustling coleslaw and gravy?! Then the manager comes… Manager has the nerve to come and say ohh she’s been work here for years so will take her side! And funny thing is I have been to the same KFC a few times and have missing items from our order. I know deep down that girl knows her mistake, I hope she gets her karma for upsetting myself and my kids! As for that manager, she will be jobless soon if she tolerate such stupidity from her staff and still stand up for them. Doubt this shop will be open for long, sad my family has always supported this KFC as we are local. Never returning again and putting my kids through such trauma.

Food was so cold! Bread wasn't toasted so it wasnt enjoyable at all. Everything else was ok
