The Globe

Reviewed By perelle2019 - Hartlepool, United Kingdom

Have you read George Orwell's essay about The Moon Under Water, a fictitious perfect pub. If it wasn't based on The Globe, it should have been. I drink their Strongarm, brewed locally, cellared brilliantly and served slightly chilled with a 2 inch head, nectar. Always a welcome, roaring real fires and traditional decor make it feel like pubs used to do, regulars and occasionals are greeted with equal warmth. You'll go a long, long way to find a better proper local.

The Woodman Inn

THIS BUSINESS IS CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. This traditional-style pub serves a good selection of lagers and three real ales and has a great selection of spirits including gins and malt whiskies. With a pool table, dart board and various other games to choose from. It also has a Gold award from the national 'Best Bar None' scheme. Boasting the best pub garden in Durham City, which has been beautifully re-landscaped, along with an outside TV for sporting features etc. A vibrant, colourful, attractive and relaxing area and this is a massive attraction during the warmer months. The pub offers a 'Light Bite' snack type menu including burgers and nachos etc at very reasonable prices. Although there is no designated pub car park, it's usually possible to park on the street nearby free on a weekday evening/Sunday. This is a friendly family-run pub offering a warm welcome to all its visitors.

I booked a cocktail class here as a surprise for my mum's birthday. There was a group of ten and we all had an amazing time. The price of very reasonable and there is so much choice when it comes to the cocktails. You get to make four in total and they also provide some nibbles. Great time and would 100 % recommend.
