Turtle Bay Durham
Caribbean restaurant
👍👍 Great place to visit, made even better thanks to Pav who looked after us for the 2 hours we were there. I had the burger which was really good. I stuck with the red stripe to drink but the rest tried quite a few of the cocktails (I don't believe they had one they didn't like) . The place was spotles...

Dog friendly.

Bells
Fish & chips restaurant
👍👍 Bells is easily my top 3 fish and chips place to go.
The fish is crispy, freshly made, and you won’t taste much oily feel. The chips is normal.
Curry sauce to me is a must add because it matches the fish and chips so well.
Price for cod and chips is £10.8
Curry sauce is £1.7
Not particularly cheap,...
