The best restaurants in County Durham North East

First time for meal here food was First class and owners made you feel welcome we will be going be going back to try there different things on the menu and Sunday looks delicious

It was mediocre at best still gonna be mediocre

My wife and I visited the Hare and Hounds today after pre booking, which seems essential. We were not disappointed. It was the Best Sunday Roast we have had for years. Freshly cooked vegetables and a choice of beef lamb or pork very good portions of meat served to you then put your own veg and trimmings. All with the best gravy. Friendly staff and bee from onsite brewery. Strongly Recommend.

Charming little coffee shop on the high street. Lovely welcoming staff, great coffee and light dishes too. Highly recommend!

Went on a Sunday afternoon. Nice food and Great Service.

Our first visit and it didnt disappoint. Staff were attentive ,exceptionally pleasent. Food was fantastic ,good size portions ,piping hot and nicely presented . Easy to find with plenty of parking. We will go back ...

I turned up last night. Needed a safe place to camp overnight in my van. What a gem of a place. Joanne (landlady) was so kind and helpful. Despite being "technically " late for a meal, she produced a delicious roast dinner. £17 for overnight camp in a secluded area at the back of the pub. The ground level. Use of showers and toilet with drinking water tap available. Absolute value for money. Joanne was also very kind this morning. She ensured I received help to get my old van started. I highly recommend this establishment

Very Nice Curry From Here Just Got The Simple But Lovley Chicken Korma + Mushroom Pilau Rice And I Enjoyed It A Lot The Restaurant Has A Very Modern Look With A Very Handy Takeaway Counter At The Entrance, There Is Loads Of Seating Area And Its Very Clean, The Smells When You Walk In Are Amazing 👌 Plenty Of Parking Outside I Would Highly Recommend This Place, I Will Definitely Be Back 10/10

2nd time here Myself and my mam and dad went for Sunday lunch and I have to say that it was absolutely outstanding. Sue is very friendly and her staff are also brilliant. The food was outstanding tasty and the puddings are also amazing. Would highly recommend it to anyone!

Been here before. We ordered 2 Pasties and 2 Coffees. The lady took our orders. The food was lovely. Coffee was lovely (nice and hot) The staff were very polite.,friendly, and helpful. Dogs are welcome too. We will be back again. Thank you.

Nice and clean, food was really nice, staff were very friendly

Amazing location for us literally 5 minutes in the car..we were not disappointed food amazing! Steak best I've ever had

Historic pub. Heart of the community. Lots of activities. Sports on tv. No food. Landlords dogs roam freely.

This was our second visit here, met friends the first time, enjoyed so much came back just the two of us. Super friendly welcome. Clean, fresh and spacious room. Had a lovely, well cooked evening meal, slept like a dream and woke up refreshed for a home cooked full English. Traditional style pub, thoroughly enjoyed and will be back - thank you!

Lovely food, comfy chairs, big portions and decent prices at £24 for a very filling lunch for two. Would like to come back and try more from the menu. Only criticism so far is lack of proper baby changing facilities. I know space is an issue but all there is is a small, hard tiled counter.
