Rose Tree Inn - Shincliffe

Sunday lunch was really tasty and hot; well above average. I would have chosen lamb but as it wasn't on the menu had beef which was good. Really delicious roast potatoes and parsnips. We would recommend Sunday lunch here. Price per person: £10–20 Recommended dishes: Beef Sunday Lunch

An excellent steak-and-ale pie at lunchtime in the dining room. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This is a lovely, small, and dog friendly pub in a beautiful part of Durham next to the river. The menu is fairly typical of most pubs and is well cooked and well presented. The fact that it also has a menu for dogs makes it stand out from the rest. However, we didn't find out about that until we were about to leave, which was a shame. My pooch would have loved the chicken breast. Unfortunately, she doesn't doesn't tolerate gluten well, so no sausages for her. Never mind, we will know for next time.

Honestly blown away with service and food. Chips were lush, im sure they were handcut. All our meals fishnchips/scampi+chips/classic burger meal were amazing. Thankyou Rose Tree for looking after us. Parking: Plenty of spaces and disabled parking. Food: 5 Service: 5
