Just stayed at the Durham ox for one night in the suite. Delightful room and very good value for money. The room had a kitchen with an honesty bar in it, bathroom and the bed was very spacious and comfy. The meal was gorgeous as was breakfast. The staff were very helpful and attentive. Would highly recommend.

Dear all, Just had to write to say WOW! My husband and I, along with our four children have just returned from Sunday lunch at the Ox and I have to say, it was fantastic. The food was delicious, (one lamb, two beef, one fish and one sausage dish, all served with plenty of hot veg and massive yorkshires) the... More

Enjoyed a really very, very good early doors 7/7 supper with friends last Friday. Frankly, it was faultless! Original, innovative & tempting menu delivered on all accounts. Six different dishes worked really well, served beautifully and with excellent taste, plus very good coffee and chocolates. Super service, great atmosphere and everything just so. 100%. Well done guys; every village should... More

We stayed last week (the 17th of March 2013) for 5 nights in this marvellous pub in Crayke.

We stayed in the Studio which is large, quiet, and beautifully furnished room. Thank you so much, Pam and... More

From the welcoming staff, superb accommodation, excellent evening meal and a very good breakfast I would heartily recommend The Durham Ox. The restaurant with its wood burning stove had a good menu and when the food was served it looked good and tasted fantastic. The accommodation and food was great value for money

I recently visited this pub as we regularly eat at it's sister restaurant 'The Oak'. I feel almost disloyal saying it, but the food was far better here. It is a litle more relaxed in atosphere to the Oak, but the mussels were far better balanced (less cream) than The Oak, and my carpaccio was one of the best I've... More

Cosy warm accomodation (we stayed in the stable) The pub was beautifully decorated with log fires etc. The food was excellent. Good wine selection, and very good service. The pub is also in a really beautiful village.

We ate at the Durham Ox last night whilst visiting York and can't recommend it highly enough. It has all the charm you could ever want in an old, village pub and a wonderful bubbling atmosphere. The service is first-rate, with every care and attention you could desire whilst also being friendly and welcoming. We both had the oven baked... More

Have eaten here twice recently; once as a couple and as we loved it so much we decided to arrange a post Christmas night out for a group of 10 from our village. This is one of the best food pubs in Yorkshire and in the UK (see the awards on the wall in the bar!) There is nothing that... More
