11 pubs in County Durham, spread across 10 towns.
County Durham has 11 Wetherspoons pubs, spread across 10 towns including Darlington, Bishop Auckland and Chester-le-Street. Every one serves the same national menu, though prices are set per pub rather than centrally, so two pubs in the same county can charge different amounts for the same plate. Order at the bar or from your table in the Wetherspoon app.

The same menu runs across the county. Prices can differ pub to pub, so check yours before ordering.
Wetherspoons has 11 pubs in County Durham, with the largest concentrations in Darlington, Bishop Auckland and Chester-le-Street. Each pub is named after something local rather than after the chain, which is why they are hard to spot from the street. The William Stead in Darlington, The Wicket Gate in Chester-le-Street and The Ward Jackson in Hartlepool are three of them, each with its own address and hours on this page.
The menu is set centrally and does not vary by pub, so the same dishes are available across the county. Prices are the exception and are set site by site, which is why the same meal can cost noticeably more in a city centre or station pub than in a market town. No pub in this county has hotel rooms above it, so the hotel list is the page to check if you need a room.
The food is the same in all 11 pubs, from Darlington outwards. Breakfast starts when the doors do, with the all-day brunch at £10.12, and the main menu carries the smaller fish and chips at £9.65 and an 11 inch margherita at £9.38. Those are the prices at the pub we sample from; expect a few pence either way across County Durham. The full menu with every price is on the homepage.
Hours vary more between County Durham's pubs than the menu does. Opening is usually early for breakfast, but closing time depends heavily on the pub and the day. Each pub page below carries its own seven day table. The opening times guide covers the usual pattern and the bank holiday exceptions.
None of County Durham's 11 pubs takes table bookings. Wetherspoons runs first come, first served everywhere, so a group is better off arriving before the lunch or evening peak than phoning ahead. Mid afternoon on a weekday is the easiest time to seat a larger group together. A few pubs have rooms or areas available to hire, which is listed on the pub's own page. More on the booking policy.
