Bailey's /honest Lawyer

Beautifully presented, tasty food. Nicely decorated restaurant. Slightly more expensive than usual bar meals but very enjoyable. Afternoon tea vouchers available on Groupon. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

We visited as 4 persons and ordered a variety of starters like ox cheek and prawns followed by mains of pork duo, duck, fish and chicken. Washed down with 2 bottles of Ondes Sauvignon Blanc at a fair £146, reasonable and will revisit but not fantastic

Surprised by the quality of food in the bar in the motel-type accommodation on the outskirts of Durham. Duck and steak were both cooked perfectly and served with tasty sides. Not cheap, but well worth it. Staying at the Honest Lawyer earned us a 15% discount on food and drink in Baileys Visualizza piatti

Went for dinner with my wife and two children whilst staying at the hotel. Food on the whole was good; decent mackerel starter, nicely flavoured pork wellington main (although the pork was over) and enjoyed most of the dessert sharing plate. Service was OK. Overall, it was an enjoyable meal.

Excellent. Hotel well placed for visiting Durham. Rooms a good size and very clean . Water in the bathroom is Hot and loads of it. Breakfast is excellent -large choice and the best poached eggs I’ve had in years. Food in the restaurant is fabulous and the staff are lovely -make you feel very very welcome and cared for.

Me and my family called in for lunch for the first time as we had heard good reports,I'm sorry to say but we will not return any time soon,the staff were very friendly and helpful,I wish I could say the same about the food but I can't it was terrible,iam not a fussy person in what I eat but I certainly couldn't eat that...

Great food is hard to find I think in Durham so we booked Baileys Restaurant at the honest lawyer again for my dad's birthday and we were not disappointed. I don't need to describe the food and the presentation it's all on the photos why not go and try it for yourself for great food and quality moments. Afternoon teas, bar menus, theme nights and al a carte menus available so there is food something for everybody and value for money.

Area booked for grandsons birthday Sunday lunch prebooked vegitarian option when placing order told no veg option pre asked if they did Quorn told yes then waitress said no only rich available or meat free Sunday lunch. The food was disgusting lamb pure fat pork had black pudding with it the “stuffing” was black and sloppy no mint or apple sauce provided a “vegetarian “ sauce was brought out which had bacon in it Overall the meal was disgusting

Good ambience, staff welcoming, attentive, menu was interesting, I chose the wrong starter, it was arranged on a big square glass plate 2 of pickle! Beetroot soggy crisps, one pickled scalop cut into thin slices, it looked pretty, it was like eating a small pile of pickle, the most expensive starter on the menu, very pretentious, in my opinion it should be dropped from the menu. We we there with friends, their starters were delicious, all our main courses were delicious, I had tandoori lamb,which was succulent perfect. I told the waitress but she was disinterested, I can't imagine she told the chef. Visualizza piatti
