The Forrester - Piatti

Such, amazing food. Every time we come we are not disappointed. All. 4.of us had an amazing meal. Even the puddings are gorgeous and beautifully presented. 5 stars for us every time!

Excellent food and service, we had a family meal with 2 young children and although they were busy, the food and service was great. Lovely place and people, and we look forward to going again.

We have noticed that this year the service is much better here. The lovely staff go above and beyond to make a good social experience, waiting on tables with drinks is a lovely bonus and if they can’t serve food they are happy for you... Visualizza piatti

Booked a table for six and everything was ready for us. All the tables were socially distanced, pleanty of hand sanatisers near the toilets and where you pay. Meals were lovely. I had chicken Fracasse and it was gogeous, some had the beef bourginon, very...

We are on a camping holiday and fortunately booked in advance for this restaurant (booking highly recommended) and so glad we did, it was packed and people being turned away. The food is very authenticity French and recommend the Boeuf Bourguignon as a must. We...

We popped in on the off chance that they had a free table and were very lucky as it was Mother's Day. The staff and owner (French) were great. The food was exquisite, we wanted something vegan, and there wasn't much choice, but that doesn't matter when what they do have is so good! Visualizza piatti

Went here for dinner. My husband had the French onion soup (which he had had on a previous occasion) and said it was not as good as the first time he had ordered it. I just had a steak onion baguette which was pretty average. Service was okay but no-one checked to see if everything was okay with our meals.

What a little gem of a restaurant. We had lunch for my husband’s birthday and were blown away by the quality of the food. I had the asparagus soup to start and I have to say it is probably the best soup I have ever eaten so full of flavour. My husband had the Gruyère soufflé which was also superb. The mains were fantastic too the sauce on the chicken fricassee was out of this world. We couldn’t manage dessert as we were so full but we’ll definitely be back!

Have stopped at The Forresters for drinks a few times in the past but haven’t eaten. My cousin lives locally and had last had a meal here before lockdown so thought we would give it a go. First class service from what seemed like the only waiter serving at least six tables. The food was amazing especially the crab cakes, soufflet, duck and beef bourguignon. Worth saving some room for the excellent deserts too. Running a restaurant in the wilds of County Durham is challenging at the best of times, so well done Frank for keeping the dream alive!
