Great little pub but drastically understaffed for a theatre night, two deep at the bar and the lad was flying solo

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.

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.

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. πŸ‘ŒπŸ™‚

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.

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 β˜ΊοΈπŸ‘

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.
