Four changing beers and two real ciders are kept in a cool room from where the customers, (max 20 seated), are served direct to their table by the landlord himself. Popular with locals and County Durham real ale lovers, (the bus station is adjacent), the Rat Race is also visited by London imbibers, who take a day trip on the 3 hour Grand Central direct train service from Kings Cross. Not surprisingly, the pub has won many CAMRA awards during it`s existence, with its latest accolade being Local CAMRA branch 2020 Cider Pub of the Year. Since opening in 2009 more than 1900 beers, sourced from over 500 different breweries, have been served direct to your table by the landlord himself. Closed Sundays and Mondays.

Opened in December 2016, this uniquely named, bright, modern two roomed micro pub lives up to its name and represents a refreshing change to the traditionally accepted micro pub theme. Every pub has to have a unique selling point, so four real beers are served supplemented with hot pork, beef and turkey sandwiches, together with pigs-in-blankets, roast potatoes, gravy and stuffing, as well as a dessert board. Hardly surprising that in it's previous life the building was a traditional butcher's shop.
