A brewed recipe for success

There is a great deal to do in Durham and, after a busy day taking in the sights and sounds of the city centre, a cup of tea or artisan coffee is the only thing that's going to hit the spot. And, as northerners, we know the importance of a good hot drink! As a result, we've worked hard to offer a wide range of hot drinks from flat whites and cappuccinos to good old-fashioned cups of tea provided by Ringtons.

Our well-stocked cellar brings an assortment of drinks, from wines spanning around the world, to popular, hand-pulled cask ales that have been lovingly brewed by local breweries right here in our home city of Durham. Just pull up a chair and enjoy!
