Vennels Café

Tricky entrance, amazing vibe lit by other customers!!! Mostly uni employees I think. Orange cake was pretty good, not too sweet.

I came across this lovely,cosy little cafe during a recent visit to Durham. It is tucked away down a quaint little alleyway just off the main shopping street leading up to the Cathedral. It has a nice courtyard with outdoor seating,perfect …

Mediocre food at best, self service only and not well ventilated, which made it uncomfortably hot and a bit smelly. Pity as its such a nice old building in the centre of Durham and with a bit more care could be so lovely. Perhaps we just picked a bad day but I won't be rushing back.
