Just had a chicken, tarragon and grape bun from the picnic basket stall at the end of the Prince Bishop's shopping centre. It was divine. Fresh, well filled and made to order. I will be back.

It lives up to the reputation, an excellent place to buy your lunch.
There are some excellent choices of fillings and along with them, choices of bread.
However i went in just after 2pm and some of the fillings looked like they had dried up somewhat so perhaps more needs doing to look after them during the warm weather (note it wasn't the hottest of days).
There isn't much choice for seating either and you can't park outside due to double yellow lines.
All in all of highly recommend The Picnic Basket.
Their loyalty card is a very smart touch which i will definitely be aiming to complete.!

As I work in the city I often call into the centre for lunch. The food in The Picnic Basket is amazing and the staff are really friendly and helpful. There isn't much space to sit in as it is more a sandwich bar, but there are plenty of seats around Durham to sit and eat at (I recommend down by the riverbank towards the cricket fields on a sunny day). After working here for many years I can safely say that The Picnic Basket is definitely one of Durham's go-to's I can highly recommend for a bite at breakfast or lunch time.

We sometimes have a Friday treat at work and get breakfast sarnies. They are great value and very tasty. Don't know whether this happens just on Fridays but we got free tea/coffee, bottle of water, crisps and biccy!!! Poor Becky couldn't carry them all up the hill and i had to run down to help her 😄
