A busy city-centre pub in Durham's historic marketplace, offering a good selection of five local and national cask ales and one real cider. Despite refurbishments, the pub has managed to keep its traditional wooden alehouse appearance, and pictures of miners' banners take pride of place. Customers are given a warm welcome, and good food based on pub classics is served until 8.30pm.
