TheForkUserVisited Durham for a super historical weekend. Didn’t dream we would eat in such an amazing restaurant too. The food would grace any Michelin starred table. Great taste and presentation throughout the 7 course tasting menu. (We added another to the 6 😋) wines and service exceptional too.

TheForkUserThe food was piping hot & delicious & really well priced on a 2 or 3 course offer. The staff were lovely & helpful. It’s was a busy Sunday lunchtime but we didn’t feel squeezed in to the next table.

_TI***dcThe restaurant has a great ambiance, perfect for a night out. The lamb shank was to die for, and the overall experience was delightful.

TheForkUserFirst time I've been for a while and it was nice, although 3 of our steaks (ordered rare) were quite overcooked, probably a medium, medium-well. The other (medium-rare) was great. Friendly service. Suspect we'll be back.

_TI***4bThe food at Runa Farm was exceptional, from the wedding breakfast to the evening meals. Every dish was well presented and full of flavor, truly a culinary delight.
