Contemporary riverside cocktail and wine bar on Freeman's Reach, with a terrace and views of Durham Cathedral and Castle.
About CoHo
CoHo is a modern cocktail and wine bar set on the banks of the River Wear at Freeman's Reach, with Durham Castle and Cathedral as a backdrop. Alongside an extensive cocktail list it offers wine, bottled beers and a menu of tapas and casual bites, plus a terrace for outdoor drinking and dining.
The riverside setting and relaxed atmosphere make it an easy choice for a pre-dinner drink or a place to linger afterwards, and it also caters for private parties and celebrations. It is a short walk from the city centre and the wider Riverwalk development.
