Come to Durham to experience our tasty food and drink offer. Each October we celebrate Taste Durham Month - a toast to the county's food and drink, with special menus featuring local produce designed to get taste buds tingling and make dining out even more of a treat.

Throughout October, eateries, attractions, hotels and B&Bs highlight a unique Durham-inspired dish or drink. Recent dishes have included ingredients such as lamb reared in Teesdale, handmade cheeses, artisan bread and locally farmed pork and beef, as well as local ale and gin.

Or why not explore the county by following one of our tasty food trails and savour a gastronomic journey of discovery. Farming has shaped the Durham landscape and the county is rich with some of the finest food and drink you could wish to taste. The Durham Dales is home to a number of award-winning food and drink businesses and passionate local producers. From farm shops and micro-breweries, to restaurants that champion local produce and tearooms that take pride in their homemade fare, the Tasty Trails in the Durham Dales are a great way to discover some delicious highlights and eat your way around the county.
