This popular city-centre pub is frequented by quite an alternative crowd, but everyone is made welcome and the pub enjoys a friendly, laid-back atmosphere. There's a great beer garden at the back, a quiz on Thursdays, mid-week pool tournaments and live music on Saturdays and some Fridays. If you are keen on loud music, you will love this venue. Food is now available from the pub's own menu and is cooked and brought over from Ye Old Elm Tree across the road.
The music is always great in here, the live bands are mostly fun and the drinks are reasonable. There is a great atmosphere here and it's rare to wait more than a few minutes at the bar, even when it's busy
Friday night in a Durham rock pub. A room of sad confused people in denim, leather, mohicans and band patches wondering why the hell there is a DJ playing awful dance music. Metal pubs should be a sanctuary from this noise.
Jo the bar staff absolutely made me and my friends night amazing, we absolutely loved it (if not ruined by an idiot uber driver) Jo was always on hand to serve and chat, genuinely made our night 100x better, management give her a raise!!!
Often described as the only alt pub in Durham, The Angel has a great punk style and nice beer garden with decent views because it's higher up :) Definitely add to your pub crawl.
Nice old school metal bar, free jukebox on a weekday and serving pints of gamma Ray too. Lovely staff. Up a pretty steep hill that catches you out after a few ales.
