Handily placed overlooking the majestic cathedral, this honest daytime café does a great service to the city of Durham by providing no-nonsense fresh food at affordable prices in surroundings that are forever congenial.

The stone building is centuries old and it now pleases all-comers with its mix of teashop and local eating house. Filled rolls, cakes, coffees and teas are just the beginning, and the kitchen delves into the world larder for a blackboard menu that lists curries, risottos and offerings like red lentil and oregano soup, pork and leek sausages with sweet peppers and tomato sauce, and duck cassoulet with white beans and sage, followed by desserts like lemon and almond polenta cake.
