Lovely local Pub for Sunday meal. We had a really good time. The food was absolutely tasty, our kids literally finished off all of their pastas. I had the Spicy Chicken Burger, it was amazingly moist, lovely! Not to forget the staff friendly and helpful, thank you guys ??.Beautiful place for family gathering or even a couple's Day or Night date. Good range of cocktails for cocktails lovers ?? sip sip horrayy!Suggestion:Pre-booked tables for future reference to all new customers to avoid disappointment, especially on Sunday service as they get very busy with details allergens or food intolerance if you have any specific dietary requirements.Pssst!!They do bookings for weddings or any other special occasions too! Amazing!
We went there for Sunday lunch and to celebrate my Daughter's birthday. We waited an hour for the food and when it finally arrived the vegetables etc were lukewarm. While they offered to warm the plates up, we simply wanted hot food - surely not too much to ask for. More vegetables were eventually provided - this time they were hot. We then ordered more drinks but they did not arrive. (I have to say that although there appeared to be sufficient staff, the service overall was poor). So, rather than stay for a desert, we decided the best route was to ask for (a discounted) bill and leave. Having had previous poor experiences at the Durham Oz, we have decided never to eat there again. All in all, a most disappointed experience. At least we learnt our lesson. We should not have gone there in the first place!

Everything very good, atmosphere, and serving staff.The large party I was with had a mixture of lunch, but the ones near me had sausage & mash ! Well two 16cm sausages placed on a tablespoon of mashed potato ? I just fancied "Cheesy chips' it arrived in a large mug sized bowel with mustard yellow sauce ? The sauce had slight cheese taste but looked & tasted the same that comes out of a side of the road cafe containing mustard for your hot dog. Cheesy Chips have grated Cheese in & around.Their saving grace was they offered me a bowel of soup that they had spare.Lovely place lovely staff but Not convinced about kitchen staff.

Lovely restaurant with well spaced round tables where six of us went for Sunday lunch. Their menu clearly states "please let us know of any dietary requirements at the time of ordering". One of our group explained that she had a medical condition and asked if the vegetables could be well cooked and our lovely waitress went to ask at the kitchen but was sent back to tell her that they could not accommodate her request. Another trip back to the kitchen to see if a different vegetable from the menu could be substituted - sorry the kitchen cannot do that for you was the reply. It`s a top price pub restaurant and they cannot even cook the vegetables the way you want them! That`s unbelievable.At this point the poor young waitress was between a rock and hard place but she handled the difficult situation superbly and professionally. Not so the manager who came to the table asking intrusive questions, allegedly so that he could understand the situation, but then insisted they couldn't possibly prepare anything slightly differently for a customer when he had 200 covers to serve. He said that they could only accommodate such a request if given prior notice at the time of booking which is not what the menu says. As an observer I considered his whole attitude to be rude and patronising and he would do well to observe his polite professional waiting staff and perhaps learn something about how to deliver good customer service.

Everything about The Durham Ox is wonderful. The staff are welcoming and efficient. The food, however, is the star. Sunday lunch is brilliant and the weekday pris fixe lunch menu is both delicious and a bargain. 10 out of 10, definitely recommend.

This place is so welcoming and the food is amazing! My husband said the Sunday roast was “couldn’t do better if I cooked at home”.Parking: We had arrived in a van as was working all day at a show so welcomed the extra room to park and felt we hadn’t imposed on anyone
