• Brazilian Steakhouse • Durham
Booked 16 times today
Estabulo Rodizio Bar & Grill honour the Brazilian Gaúcho’s traditional method of cooking. This involves taking the most delicious and flavoursome cuts of meat, which are then skewered and cooked slowly on open flames. This method of cooking also means that all the meat served to you fresh at your table, straight from the grill. You can eat as much or as little as you like, and we have a large selection of meats on offer, so you can stick to what you know or try something a little bit different! We also have a selection of Vegetarian, Halal and Fish dishes on offer and the salad bar which is the perfect start to your meal, and accompanies our entire menu perfectly as little palate cleansers between each skewer that reaches your table.

• British • West Witton

Situated in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, The Wensleydale Heifer may be within easy reach of the A1 and M6 but it still feels totally rural. A traditional white-washed inn complete with leaded lights and swinging sign, The Wensleydale Heifer gives the visitor a real flavour of Britain meaning it’s popular not only with locals but with tourists searching for the real Yorkshire. From the lounge, with its comfortable leather settees, country pursuit paintings and imposing fireplace through to the wicker seating, beamed ceilings and eau de nil painted walls, the interior could have leapt from the pages of Country Homes magazine. The contemporary British menu includes seaood from across Britain plus locally sourced meat and veg, all prepared using the Wensleydale Heifer philosophy – keep it simple.

    The Rose and Crown was recommended by a friend. Glad we made the trip from the Bowles Museum. The pub was warm and cosy with a log fit lit, the staff were friendly and attentive, the pub sells real beer!, the choice on the menu was very good, and the food was excellent.

    Amazing place, food and staff. A very friendly welcome and we immediately felt relaxed, enabling us to enjoy the fabulous surroundings before going into the dining room.. The different members of staff worked like clockwork, very attentive and the service was excellent. Food was delicious and cooked perfectly. Everything was tasty, hit and very good quality. In addition the wine was very good quality as were the coffee and desserts. All in all we are glad we visited and will certainly recommend and will visit again soon.
