Complained again, offered a refund and driver to return them 10.53pm still waiting.Now £10.50 down. Fucking waste of time and money. Will never use them again, and advise others not to use them.

Holy Smokes. More like "Holy Smokes, where is our food"?…read more So... I bet you're probably wondering what happened. Apparently there was a "problem with the kitchen", which meant we had to wait a very long time for our food. However upon closer inspection the problem was probably the kitchen as a whole, as on my way to the toilet I got a good look at the serving area. It was grimy and covered in an off putting assortment of foods and slop that must had slipped off of the plates and been left to fester. Upon the eventual serving of our food we were missing 2 of our orders. We assumed that they would be there shortly....they weren't. We ended up having to inquire about the missing meals with our waiter who as it turned out had forgotten to put our other orders through, meaning we had to wait for them to be cooked too. On top of that, despite the cokes we ordered at the bar litteraly being clear and not black/browny coloured, we were served them anyway. We also had to enquire about getting some that didn't just taste of sparkling water and that actualy contained the syrup... And that isn't even the end of it. The food also tasted like raw onions, the bacon, the burgers, the brisket. EVERYTHING. All in all, the service was bad, food was bad and the hygeen was bad. 0/10, would not wait for food again.

Oh my good lord above, this place is incredible. INCREDIBLE. I have literally never had better…read morepancakes. And I am an American, from the Midwest, and I have never had better pancakes in my life than these ones in Durham, of all places. They are to die for. I am dead. They are also enormous, and no normal human could finish a full stack. They are truly the tallest pancakes I have ever seen. How do they achieve this height? It's magic, I tell you. They are divine. I've also had a really gorgeous springy salad of aparagus, potatoes, ham, rocket, and poached egg - but just stop reading this and get the pancakes. Super cute rustic atmosphere, and be prepared to wait if you aren't there right when they open. It's worth the wait, if you haven't already gathered that.

You pay for the table on an hourly rate with occasional offers on such as pay $10 to play all night. The pool tables are for American pool though there are a couple of english pool tables available. There is also a seperate room full of snooker tables. There are a lot of tables so you never normally have a problem getting on one. There is a bar area with big screen TV showing all the live sport action and regular poker tournaments are held.

This Wetherspoon pub (Llyod's No 1 Bar) takes its name from the historic mill which stood for…read morecenturies adjacent to this site. First recorded in the Boldon Book of 1183, the Bishop's Mill was the place where the freemen of Durham could grind their corn. The corn mill was rebuilt in the 17th century, and stood here until 1972. The mill race was later used to power the adjacent ice rink. This bar was opened in Dec 2006. Started off a Friday night next door in the Love Shack but the place was dead (around 10pm) and I had little hope for Durham. Walked out of the Love Shack and looked next door and the place was hopping. Small queue on the Friday night (much bigger on the Saturday night!). Huge size and all mostly on the ground level with some smaller areas to the sides up 1 step for a carpeted seated area. Live DJ. Dance floor, place full of young friendly people (with some of the older generation trying to blend in but to no avail). Long bar with plenty of staff on both nights. Average price for drinks. Music a mix of dance both old and new, some main stream pop and classics. A good spot to end up in. Stays open until well after 1.30 on both nights. Enjoyed myself here. Outside beer garden and smoking area. Situated down some exterior step i the overall complex but they have external elevators in place which I thought was forward thinking.

I was underwhelmed but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. The prices are great but the food not so…read moremuch. Tonight was "steak club" so I thought I would try English Aberdeen Rump Steak. It was bland and rather pedestrian. There really wasn't much flavor minus the salt added and the sear on the steak was ineffective. Don't get me wrong, I ate it all because I was hungry but I wouldn't order it again. The "new" macaroni & cheese looked and tasted a lot like Kraft Mac n Cheese out of a box with slightly bigger macaroni noodles. The onion rings that the young lady asked me if I wanted to add them to my meal 3 times had to have come from a freezer, were not crispy, and had no flavor. The "chips" (fries for my American friends) were equally undercooked and dull. The only thing that keeps me from a one star rating is the selection of cask ales on tap. The one great thing about coming to the UK are the cask ales. The artistry and precision with which these ales are drawn is fun to watch, creating the perfect head of foam, and the taste are epic! In short...great place for a pint...not even a good place for a meal.

Ordered from just eat online we ordered a chicken Parmesan with what was supposed to be bechamel…read moresauce which turned out to be mayonnaise. Also ordered a 3 piece chicken and wedges which they sent out hot and spicy chicken and chicken nuggets and chips. When we phoned up to inform them they tried to say we didn't order that then said they would phone us back phoned back saying waiting for the driver after waiting forty minutes for them to ring we called them again said they were busy and would phone back to which they never did all the food what we did get was not fresh and was cold. certainly would not recommend.
