The best restaurants in Chester-le-Street South County Durham North East

Amazing food and staff are very welcoming

Nice to go for a quick drink and food

I visited the Woodlands today for the Christmas Fayre Lunch. I had ordered a starter which never arrived! The Turkey roast dinner was very nice, however, it was cold and the gravy luke warm.. I had the Christmas pudding for dessert which was overcooked and very dry as though it had been cooked in the microwave too long!

Very disappointed tonight which is unusual! Potato wedges had been over cooked or cooked again to warm up as were hard, barely any potato left inside and greasy. Large kebab was just about a standard size, pizza barely any cheese so topping very dry

Food is very nice well worth it good portions and the staff are friendly it might help if they sorted the app out what's the point saying its open on the app when ifs NOT!

I came in earlier this week and had a brilliant meal and the service was excellent.

We've waited nearly an hour and still no food arrived ,service atrocious,venue not very warm either ,a lot on menu was not available !

Excellent early meal with superb service. Lovely atmosphere and staff very friendly. Will definitely be going again.

Lovely little cafe. Nice food and coffee and very well decorated inside. The staff were very friendly particularly a nice young man behind the till. We didn’t even notice there was an outdoor area, but I imagine on a sunny day like today, that would be a lovely place to sit with a coffee.

Quiet chilled atmosphere quickly seated and drinks served quickly good selection of genuine pub food, the food was cooked as asked perfectly and big servings, we will be back

My favourite chippy! Food is cooked to order and is always so fresh and delicious. Absolutely love the staff too, always so friendly and energetic! Music videos while you wait - love it!
