We came here for a meal with friends on a quiet day for the ground after an appointment. The venue was quiet which for us was ideal as some of the party are neurodivergent and struggle in busy places. The food was demolished by our entire group including desserts! I ordered a light bite bean chilli wrap and it was huge really couldn't fault the food at all. The staff were polite and given the size of our orders worked so well together to organise our food coming out together and ensuring everyone got the right food and if we needed anything else.

I dunno. I gave them the benefit of the doubt after the first poor sitting but I'll...

We got there early and finished our food, preparing to watch a match, we enquired which of the games were being shown. At this point we were advised the pub was closing in a few minutes, despite there being a number of tables already seated and the opening hours showing as not due to close for a further 2 hours.
Having driven from Durham to a sports bar and watch a match, it was extremely disappointing that we had to leave, miss the start of a game and find another pub in the city centre to watch it instead. It also means we’d be unable to attend in future as we’d be unsure if the pub was going to remain open or not.
