We came across this lovely place on our way to Nottingham. We telephoned on route and made enquiries regarding a table for 4 hungry people. We were informed that there would be a space for 4 at 3pm.We arrived and entered. The place was bustling with people, laughing and chattering. The atmosphere was happy and inviting. The staff were friendly and helpful. Within 10mins of purchasing our drinks we were shown to our table, in a room at the back of the pub, which was homely and warm.We ordered our meals, and very shortly after, we received our meals.My 3 companions had Sunday roasts, which they assured me were excellent. The meat was tasty and tender, the vegetables were cooked just right, huge Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes and rich, thick gravy.I had the vegetarian dish of cheese, potato and broccoli bake which was lovely, with well cooked veg to accompany, we were all very pleased with our meal.We then had desserts, 2 biscoff cheesecake, 1 creme brulee and 1 sticky toffee pudding. All desserts were scrummy! The sticky toffee pudding was out of this world! We all delved in and helped my daughter eat the sauce, she tried to fight us off, but once you taste that sauce you can't stop eating it!A really lovely meal, served by happy, friendly staff, in a homely atmospheric pub.I wish it was my local!!

Such a great pub.We have visited the Durham Ox on many occasions and have had such a positive visit each time.Food tastes delicious and comes in generous portions.....plenty off gravey too.Ales/beers and ciders are always nice.Staff are friendly and very welcoming. On our last visit (Mother's day 2024), about 10 mins after our main had been delivered, our young daughter required some attention. Staff saw this, came over and offered to put my plate under a warmer until I was ready. ?We recommend this place to friends and family when visiting us.James

Chose the halloumi ciabatta with salad. It was exceptional. Best bread I have tasted in ages, plenty of halloumi. Would recommend.

Lovely food and very attentive service. If the sun shines you can sit outside but book your table as it does get busy...
