"We visited this smokehouse due to the reviews whilst in the area on holiday, and were not disappointed! There are only 4 tables, so we booked via their Facebook page, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We had the biggest platter on the menu so we could sample as much as possible, and everything was absolutely gorgeous. We felt it was excellent value for money and really good quality. The platter was huge so we couldn’t finish it all, but they gave us boxes to bring the rest home and it’s all finished now. Special little family run place that is definitely worth a visit. It’s quirky, different, independent and fantastic quality. We managed to park right outside too."

"Our party of 3 were handed crumpled lunch menus and though I requested a wine menu apparently there isn't one. I asked what was available and from the three first mentioned chose a Rioja at £21. It was acceptable. I chose a 16 oz rump steak. On being asked how I wanted it cooked I suggested that the chef would know how best to cook his product and that this would be ok with me. I was met with a blank stare. After two more tries I was told I had to choose myself so chose medium rare. When it arrived weighing no more than 10 oz, gristly and rather thin, it was dry and cooked hugely beyond well done. I can honestly say this was the worst attempt at a steak I can recall. My fellow diners restrained my desire to complain even though their meals (a steak pie and a thai red curry) were mediocre. No one bothered to ask if our food was ok. After a coffee we left. I am surprised that this place is still trading."

"Arrived 4-45 on a 18/11/22 without booking got a table for 2. Very pleasant attentive staff. Drinks order taken delivered promptly even though they where very busy. 3 different menus to choose from we choose 2 courses for 12-95 or 3 courses for £15 -95. Starts mains ordered. After a short wait starters arrive nicely presented, well prepared very tasty. Mains arrived after a short wait after finishing starters everything is freshly prepared cooked so a short wait is good. Main courses where nicely cooked very nicely presented. Everything was very nice tasty. We found space for a desert each they where both very tasty. A great meal in nice surroundings, pleasant attentive staff. Great value for money. This is available 12 till 5."

"First time visiting The Red Alligator after a few recommendations and I definitely wasn’t disappointed! Sunday carvery was exceptional (and very affordable) The meat was cooked perfectly and there was a fabulous selection of veg. It wasn’t really busy when we arrived and we were served by two lovely, polite and very helpful young members of staff quite quickly. After stuffing ourselves silly, we sat for a while letting our food digest, before ordering the best cornflake tart and custard Iv had since I was at school!! Would definitely recommend this lovely pub if you are in the mood for an excellent Sunday lunch."

"Understand why you need to book a table Very friendly staff and very quick table service . Good choice of drinks and food menu and very quick service from ordering to eating. Never seen a platter of chips so high to share among us the individual food portions looked fabulous. It's our first time eating here and didn't know what expect but the portions where too much for skinny ones like us. Alarm bells started ringing when two of us with different meals saw red spots in our chicken fillets and then that put us off When the waiter came to take our plates away and we said about the chicken he didn't give us much confidence as said oh you got to be careful eating that ? Anyway we where happy with what we had eaten and very happy with the bill considering we had fish and chips from restaurant in outskirts of Durham and there was only a fiver difference and we had alcohol with our meals tonight We last drank in here 25 years ago and had great memories and saw a few old local faces Mens toilets where a disgrace Don't know what I was walking in, no dustbin for the hand towels so people just dump them on the floor I took mine with me and wiped my feet on the carpet on the way out Discussion in the car going home Too much waste for us as we couldn't eat everything that put in front of us"
