About Restaurant 17
Restaurant 17 sits on Elvet Bridge within Hotel Indigo Durham, overlooking the River Wear in the heart of the city. It serves a seasonal fine-dining menu in a smart, candlelit setting, making it one of Durham's most romantic spots for a special meal.
The riverside position and unhurried service make it well suited to anniversaries and celebrations, and its central location means the cathedral, castle and the city's bars are all within an easy walk. Booking ahead is recommended, particularly at weekends.
