The Portly Piper Pub is a casual restaurant located in the Ajax area of Durham. The Portly Piper specializes in English cuisine and features casual dining, family dining in a casual atmosphere.
I have been frequenting the Portly Piper for a long time, about 5 years to be exact. Have always had good service, have made friends amongst the waitresses and Managers. Good spot, will be continuing my visits!
If you're going to YukYuk's in Ajax, this place is your best choice for dinner before the show. Located right next door, it has great food, great atmosphere, quick service (if you need it) and great drinks. They are one of the few British Pubs I've been to that actually serve Toad in the Hole - which isn't nearly as bad as it sounds for those who have never had it - and there's variety in the menu for everyone if classic British dishes are not your thing.
Great wings! Crispy and spicy!
Potato skins and nachos were good. Garlic bread on party platter should be replaced.. maybe spring rolls....veggie platters were a bit skimpy.
