The best restaurants serving British food in County Durham North East

Gran noche, muy buen servicio de Brendan, gran ambiente y sin duda volveré en algún momento pronto!

Really poor service clubhouse was closed someone in the office wasn't interested professional apologised well stocked shop,course was ok wouldn't go back plenty more clubs who actually provide a service.

Waited over an hour for food when we were told 25mins when ordering. Had to leave and get a refund due to tight timelines Lost of other people having the same issues with food and drink orders They should have suspended app orders if they can’t fulfil them in a timely manner. Maybe a one off but not a good experience

Tuve el menú de Navidad Fayre, Sopa, Pavo, Crema Brulee, La sopa era muy delgada sin sabor, el pan estaba duro. El pavo estaba frío y la salsa era como el agua, las papas asadas estaban sin cocer y no tenían color para ellos, al igual que los cerdos en mantas, solo obtuvieron 1 pieza de zanahoria y 1 pieza de chirivía, La Creme Brulee no tenía nada de crujiente. Definitivamente el peor Fayre de Navidad que todos hemos tenido, no volveremos el próximo año.

Beautiful views across the Beamish valley. Permanent wedding marquee. Pleasant dining areas. Ample free parking. Friendly helpful staff. Had lunch here on a Thursday at the same time as a wedding reception was ongoing. Food service was a little slow perhaps because of the wedding, but we didn't mind as we appreciated being able to take our time.

First time I have been, met my friends there

Amazing food and didnt have to wait long at all , friendly excellent staff . Would highly recommend going here for food and drinks

Excellent service staff very friendly enjoyed my night out .will definitely do again thank you to all staff and Alex for looking after our party well done

I have same issue I have sent my application special delivery guaranteed and it says delivered and signed but when I keep calling them they say nothing on the system. We want answers because we have paid for the service what’s wrong with you people. Is there any management or they not bothered to sort people applications

Vinimos en un día muy soleado y habíamos pasado por este pub antes. Un tipo estaba poniendo mesas cuando pasamos y entramos en el mercado. Cuando salimos todos los asientos estaban llenos. Por dentro estaba muy bien hecho, mi compañero tenía el bistec y pastel de cerveza y yo tenía los scampi con patatas fritas. Ambas comidas eran muy sabrosas, incluso tenía un poco de su salsa en mis patatas fritas! El servicio fue rápido y un buen menú variado, sin duda volveremos cuando visitemos Durham.

The hotel, rooms and spa are lovely - I often have people staying there who visit us but…….Three of us ( all locals, in our 60’s) have been going to the bar at The Manor House regularly for about 6 years for a monthly get together for wine / whisky and chat and spend well over £150 a session. However since some staff changes (staff leaving) the service and the attitude of some of the (largely untrained) staff has become very unwelcoming. There’s a definite atmosphere of ‘we don’t want locals’ which as we’re often the only ones there is quite surprising and disappointing given our custom over the years.

Stopped here a couple of times for warming hot chocolate. Staff were polite and the toasties were very nice too

Heard so many good things about the Aviator…. Arrived at 3.50pm today (70 minutes before they close and 40 minutes before last orders for food) to be told ‘sorry, we’ve stopped serving food (even though the staff were still visible in the kitchen) Very disappointed as I hadn’t eaten all day and I’m writing this review on a painfully empty stomach….. If the staff could have been bothered I’m sure we could have been accommodated 😫

Lovely costa, Staff very friendly. Lovely selection. Nice to sit in the window and watch the world go by! Will be back thank-you

Quaint pub on my parents street. Classic pub, no frills and good prices, highly recommended.
