Longshot - Can anyone recommend a good restaurant in Durham City?

[Ulysees]

Dh and I are going to see a play at the Gala on Saturday and want to eat afterwards.

anyone?

Hollathans on Elvet Bridge is nice, or there's sakura, expensive but yummy japanese food. For italian romeos is good.

Its been a while since I've been but service in Hollathans can be a little slow - but food is v good. There is a place called Hide on Saddler Street , the road that takes you up to cathedral
See this BBC review for ideas (sorry can't do link!) I celebrated my 21st in this very building (diff restaurant then) but have been back a number of times and have always found the food good and service attentive.

I understand from friends that Vennels is now superb - but no idea what it does in the way of food.

If you want to really splash out The Royal County Hotel have a restaurant, which some people rave about hope that helps - have fun and say hello to lovely durham for me

Oh thanks you two I'll say hello to Durham for you ark!

hey - where did you go in the end?
