“We have a great team in place at the Head Of Steam, and this award is testament to the hard work, passion and knowledge of all of the staff working there. We are delighted that they have been recognised by the people who use East Coast Trains, and we value this accolade even more given that it has been voted for by the people who visit this amazing venue”.

The competition was fierce across all destinations and we’re pleased to see the Head Of Steam getting the vote from our Durham pub fans.”
