The Sunday roast is really good value. Delicious and plentiful portions. We will definitely return and try out the weekday menu which looks really good.

We booked The Travellers Rest to celebrate a special birthday with family. From the very start they were very accommodating, to help us enjoy a memorable night. The quality of the food was fantastic and the service was first class, despite being 17 of us. A special shout out for the super friendly and efficient Sara - who oversaw the whole evening. With friendly staff, good food and value for money, this place takes some beating. Big thank you Travs, we will definitely be back

We called in for lunch this week just before the rain came! The options on the menu were excellent something to suit all tastes, amazing vegetation selection not just the usual one or two options. Quality of food and service was second to none, really friendly host??, 100% recommend a visit and will be back to try more from the menu and the Sunday lunch!

First time here for a Sunday lunch, amazing starter of chicken goujons, then I went for the chicken dinner, only thing lacking was the amount of chicken, it wasn't even a full breast of it, it was half, it tasted great and everything else on the plate was amazing, just the amount of meat, everyone else in the party got beef and there was plenty of this on their plates, just an observation provide a full chicken breast for a Sunday lunch not half of one lol.The pudding was incredible, toffee crunch pie with cream to round it off. Really good prices and a lovely traditional pub feel in the inside, will definitely go back but get beef next time lol.Parking: Was difficult to find parking spot, may need to park on side streets near the pub

Visited one lunchtime and was surprised at how lovely this place is inside. Easy to get a table and we had not booked. It’s in an unappealing area of Consett (just my opinion), just slightly out of the centre and we had wrongly assumed it would be a bit run down inside. It wasn’t at all, it was lovely.Staff were very friendly and helpful, greeted with a beaming smile from the woman on the bar. We ordered our food at the table. Freshly cooked but if I’m honest the portions were small and the plates themselves were too small for the food and my fish kept falling into the table as I tried to cut it!I enjoyed my fish and chips but my husband was disappointed with his honey chilli chicken. A lot of his fries were all clumped together and the chicken breast was tiny. The plate was padded out with salad?. He was unimpressed by the portion size for the cost of the meal.The decor is rustic and very nice and there are some free parking spaces outside. Would come back for a drink maybe but possibly not food as we didn’t think it was value for money compared to other local places. If you want friendly staff, a friendly atmosphere and choice of drinks, give it a go. If the food had been slightly better I’d have given 5 stars.
