What can I say!! The Dun Cow is quite simply delightful, unique and quite rare with original features throughout. And the real ales and lagers are spot on with good service also..I used to go there 47 years ago it was great then, it's definitely found it's mojo again!!...�

Called for drinks before and after the Theatre. Love the old original features. The dark wood bar and wall features and the beautiful ceiling and two lovely fireplaces. Great friendly staff. Friendly cosy atmosphere .

First of all myself and my mum would like to say a big thankyou to the owner who helped us find a car parking space whilst we went to the theatre and then for recommending this lovely pub/restraunt. Food was gorgeous and staff friendly x

Called in before the theatre, lovely staff, nice welcome. Nice little quirky place with original fittings. Love the fire in the back and the stained glass touch. Would return ;)

I called in today for some Lunch but I wasn’t fancying Sunday Dinner so I opted for the Double Dun Cow burger and I was definitely not disappointed it was lovely and cooked to perfection ��

Only my second ever visit. Casta found it in his 2023 CAMRA Good Beer Guide. In said guide not just for beer but because this Grade 2 listed building beside the famous Sunderland Empire Theatre has a pub decor of significant historical heritage..in other words "bloody lovely". On a rubbish August evening of damp grey skies this lit up the evening. Great selection of real ale. Casta chose an " off the wall" beer...a blue raspberry and coconut milkshake pale ale! From Play Brew breeery. Different but would not have another.

Fantastic style of pub, unchanged decor in a long time. Great selection of beers and lagers on Draft and Cask. Food wasn't as great as I expected but still very nice, maybe slightly overpriced. Great, friendly bar service though. Calm, chilled atmosphere inside.

Lovely original 1800s bar and decor (I understand it's 'listed') in this local pub for an older crowd. Friendly staff and a lot of beers for a fair price.

Just had the most delicious Sunday lunch at The Dun Cow, food was really tasty, beautifully cooked and plentiful. The puds were so good too, and a wide range of ales and other drinks to choose from. Friendly bar staff and a beautiful bar to admire while you sit! Will definitely be returning ☺️👍

Great pub, great service from attentive friendly bar staff. Would like to see a few more cask pumps but a large variety of keg ales. Dog friendly and staff brought some water and a treat out for our pooch. 👌🙂

The building itself took my breath away. I love visiting old pubs. Had few drinks with my group of walkers/runners and really enjoyed being at the pub. The staff behind the bar was quite friendly as well.

It's an old - fashioned pub with a stunning well-restored Edwardian interior. Friendly service, popular with locals.
