Old Toms Gin - Durham

The best place in durham for gin. the personal is great, thank you for telling them what kind of things they like, they will really cut well. highly recommended.

Easily one of my favorite bars. I can't come to Durham and not have a drink in this bar. Its such a relaxed friendly atmosphere. My wife and I love it

When planning my trip to Durham for my younger son 's delayed graduation ceremony (late due to covid this was not a place I had marked down to visit as I don 't drink gin. However, as I was walking past on my first morning the external decor attracted me and I looked through the open front door I was fascinated! The interior is like a museum, full of interesting items. I went in, through to the bar and ordered a cappuccino and viewed all the intriguing items on display. I returned later on and had one of their extensive variety of gins with a mixer recommended by the bloke behind the bar and did enjoy it. Despite my son living in Durham for four years he had never visited not being a gin person either he missed out on a fascinating gem of a place by the river in Durham. Even if gin is not your thing it is definitely worth a visit :

This is tucked away quaint little place worth a visit. They do meals I did fancy the cheese board and wash it down with a gin or two but we were driving The menu was good reasonably priced and there is seating outside if that is your preference on a fine day beautiful as you are in view of the castle and the river is just below . The photo of the castle is the view from the eating area. Well worth a visit and importantly very pleasant staff Outside eating is ideal for those using a wheelchair and a toilet for the disabled just a minute away

Been here a few times and it's an interesting bar. Called in yesterday and had the benefit of the lovely Hannah. First class service, great cheeseboard, very informative. The owners of this bar are very lucky to have her.
