Sale Pepe in County Durham

5 star food. HOWEVER! Restaurant needs to be bigger, service needs to be faster. Prices are a little steep. That a side. Very good food is excellent.

Amazing food, the waiting staff were attentive and friendly. A lovely dinner and great value for money!

Oh my word!!What a superb restaurant.The surroundings first of all, especially at Christmas time are so warm and inviting.Then the service was friendly and efficient.But the food, the food was simply excellent.Prices are fair and well worth the whole experience.I’m lucky enough to say this lovely place is on my new door step.Many thanks

Lovely restaurant, gorgeous food, helpful friendly staff and great atmosphere. Came here with 2 sets of friends and our children of various ages (8, teens and adults). We had a lovely evening and were looked after. I would highly recommend.

Fantastic food, very helpful and friendly staff, looking forward to the next time

Food was absolutely delicious. Staff work very hard to make customers feel welcome & were friendly and helpful. The interior is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Truly enjoyed our time there.

Lovely evening here. Service good. Very nice staff. Good value. Love their late with orange chutney. Unfortunately not such a good experience the vegetarian ravioli. The filling was really nice but pasta was hard especially the edges which I couldn't eat. Shame that it took the edge off the main course a bit. Would definitely go back though for a second experience.

Food is always incredible, and definitely the best and friendliest atmosphere of any restaurant I ever go to!! The best pizza for miles... Love this place.

First class food, gets better and better each time we visit (and we've been a lot). Excellent value for money and always a friendly service. A truly hidden gem in a beautiful village setting. We recommend the Calamari, Goats cheese or Garlic bread as a starter (see photo).

I booked a table at Sale Pepe with 10 friends for my birthday. We arrived there on time and had the table reserved. It was very decorative inside and the service was great. It did take a while for the starters to come (about 40 mins) but we did have drinks first and enjoyed the atmosphere.The food was delicious (I especially liked the Garlic & Rosemary flatbread) and the main course of linguine Bolognaise. I think the main course had a little too much meat in, but was great! I had a desert as well - first time I had affogato but was delicious.They sang Happy birthday and a candle came with the dessert.It's definitely a place I'd consider dining at again:)
