Quick info
About The Lambton
The Lambton is a pub and inn on the High Street in Chester Le Street, set a short walk from the train station and within reach of bus routes running to Durham, Newcastle, and Riverside Cricket Ground. The building operates as a pub that also offers rooms, with the bar staff serving drinks and food throughout the day and a schedule of food and drink deals running alongside. Dogs are welcome inside, and the team behind the bar is known for striking up conversation with customers as they serve. The pub, inn, and restaurant subcategories point to a setup that handles a sit-down meal, a casual drink, and an overnight stay under one roof, making it a practical base for visitors arriving by rail or bus and for locals using the surrounding transport links.
