The Queens Head
5/5 Excellent
"The pub is set off the main road into Durham which is great as it makes it more peaceful and homely. The owner is great and really friendly just what a proper landlord should be. The pub itself is very clean and has a great menu that caters for all requirements. The rooms were basic but very comfortable we had the en suite which made a difference. We ate breakfast the next day and the vegetarian cooled breakfast was by far the best I have eaten anywhere!!! The lady who served us was also really freindly and nothing was a bother. We will definitely be returning and recommending this pub to friends and family."
