Restaurants near Bowes Museum

Excellent food, friendly staff and a roaring fire BUT stop adding 10% on the bill. I'll decide if I want to tip. It puts us off visiting.

Great service, staff are amazing and very attentive. We went for lunch today for the first time (we usually go for dinner) and there wad a very good selection of meats that come out fast! Food overall was of excellent. I of course will be returning!

Wonderful as ever - we had a Sunday lunch for 4 with desserts and I can't fault it at all! Clean venue with lovely staff. We can't wait to go again!

We were staying in the village and so our sole reason for choosing The Milbank Arms was ‘walking distance with food’! Unbeknown to us, it was steak night and so we had steak. It was melt-in-the-mouth delicious and came with tasty sides rather than your run-of-the-mill onion rings and peas. The bar was full of locals, which was good to see, but was rather noisy at times. There were other rooms to dine in which might have been less noisy but overall we weren’t that unhappy we needed to move. Service was excellent and I believe the Team have only just taken over from previous management - if they continue as they have begun they won’t go far wrong. We would definitely return and recommend to others. Thank you.

A very enjoyable experience and meal. Lovely venue. Service was very good as the restaurant and bar were quiet. The food was presented beautifully and tasted divine.
