Market Tavern

Market Tavern is a Greene King pub right on Durham's Market Place, where dogs are welcome inside alongside you. The kitchen serves food every day — until 9pm Monday to Saturday and 8pm on Sundays — so the whole group can settle in for lunch or supper without leaving anyone on the pavement.

The pub opens at 11am daily, running through to 11pm Sunday to Thursday and midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. That makes it useful for a mid-morning coffee, a post-walk pint or a proper sit-down meal in the heart of Durham.

It's a handy central stop when you're navigating the city with a dog in tow. No fuss, no outdoor-only faff — just a warm pub welcome in a proper Market Place location.
