The Beamish Mary Inn is situated between Stanley and Beamish, close to the historic city of Durham. The venue is a guesthouse as well as a pub and restaurant serving traditional British cuisine and an excellent range of real ales.
The menu at the Beamish Mary Inn is a roll call of British pub classics. From rich, filling pies, to juicy burgers and every meat lover's favourite, the classic mixed grill, there's an option to please every member of your party. More delicate options are also available, in the form of herby salmon with asparagus, or vegetarian favourite, mushroom stroganoff. The drinks list at the Beamish Mary Inn is just as varied as the food, and includes a selection of eight real ales. In fact, the bar has been named a Campaign for Real Ale Best Pub in County Durham.
The Beamish Mary Inn and the village in which it sits have a unique history. The stone-built inn itself has been a family-run establishment since as far back as 1897 and it is located in the unusual village of No Place. Nobody really knows where the unique name came from but it is thought that the village may have been called Near Place, Nigh Place or North Place originally. Attempts were made to change the name in 1983 but due to popular demand, "No Place" remained.
Visitors to the Beamish Mary Inn are guaranteed a warm welcome, with friendly staff on hand to cater to every request and offer recommendations on the ales and food on offer. It's perfect for a visit both in winter, when guests can warm up by the open wood fire or in summer, where dog walkers can stop off in the beer garden after a summer stroll.
