The Shakespeare Tavern, Durham

Visited the Shakespeare on the day of the miners gala and will never go back!
The beer was warm and flat
The staff were unfriendly
The prices were inflated
They charged extra to serve beer in plastic 'glasses', that was just an insult.
The only price displayed anywhere was the extra charge for the plastic drinking cups!
Shakespeare, you should be ashamed.
If in Durham give this place a wide berth, there are lots of good pubs in Durham, this is not one of them.
