user reviews of the Travellers Rest, Giles Gate
please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Being greeted by a friendly black Labrador is always a good way to kick off a visit to a new pub, as it just lifts the mood, even on a wet, windy day (of which Durham has plenty). For this reason, I was inclined to like the Travellers' Rest, even before I tasted the very good Black Sheep, read the papers left on the bar and watched football on the TV. This is a very sound, wet-led, locals' pub (of the type of which Gilesgate has recently lost three) and is not somewhere to journey out of your way for, but it serves its core customers and passers-by very well. pablos13 - 4 Oct 2008 18:46 |
