Went here for tea with my husband and two young sons, ordered the Sunday roast, myself and my husband both agreed it was best Sunday roast we had ever had out, it was beautiful, both got the slow roasted beef and Yorkshire puddings were great too. Plenty of choice for children's meals and all were g
I recently had my reception for my wedding here! And they went above and beyond with preparing the table and room, I was able to have Sunday roast menu on a Wednesday and enjoyed the food and atmosphere! All the staff were amazing! I would definitely recommend for private events
Excellent food-focussed pub with a small number of clean, quiet, freshly decorated and warm family and standard rooms upstairs. Plenty of free parking but also on a direct bus route to Durham and Newcastle, both a short drive/journey from the pub. Beamish, Jarrow, Barnard Castle and the Durham Coast
Had special steak night meal for two.Started with a belly pork bites starter and it was the best I've tasted in a long time. The steak meal was perfect,lovely home cut chips and the pepper sauce delicious. The staff are so friendly but very professional too. Can't fault the Red Lion, our compliment
My family and I recently visited the Red Lion for lunch and we had a great time. It's a charming pub restaurant that caters to families, offering a comfortable atmosphere and it's decor suited to it's target audience (families). We all ordered our food, with my family each choosing the scampi and fr
Didn't have our booking, which was rang in the previous day, but after some time fit us in. Waited another 10 mins before being asked for our order. Sunday lunch arrived but without parsnips, however when asked if they had ran out the waiter apologised and returned with a small bowl of them. Foo
Visited for lunch for a birthday celebration. An amazing choice of food. The food we chose was beautiful and the service was excellent. A dog friendly pub. They have blanket for them and made a huge fuss off all the dogs in bar.
We called in here when we were passing on a Sunday. The staff were great and managed to fit us in, even though it was quite busy. We both ordered the feather blade of beef and they arrived in a scarcely believable amount of time, really surprisingly rapid. Both meals were perfectly cooked. Been here
West over to Durham over a wedding across from the red lion. Went to the red lion for dinner a few times and couldn't recommend this place. The food here is unreal!! Very tasty and good value.
Stayed for bed and breakfast. Room was spacious and bed was extremely comfy. One of the best breakfasts I’ve had, Thank you
Thank you for a great stay. We stay in a lot of hotels and this one is one of the best we have stayed in. Super friendly staff and a amazing breakfast! We will definitely be back the next time we are in Durham, thanks again 😀
In a party of 6. Broth and warm bun was enjoyable. Tempura prawns and chilli sauce were very tasty. Broth was served as a starter and prawns when others were having their main meal. Fish and chips was enormous.
Stayed here many times now and want to say, the people here are awesome and always do their best to make you feel welcome.
Clean, tidy, good food and drink, friendly atmosphere, what more can you ask for.
Thanks again to everyone at the Red Lion, see you soon.
:)
