Freemasonry
FREEMASONRY IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
THE BEST SEAT IN CHESTER-LE-STREET
You get the atmosphere of a proper club and the screens of a city centre sports bar, without the city centre prices. Station Lane is two minutes from the railway station and the Front Street bus stops, so it is an easy in and an easy out whether you are watching with us or heading up to the Riverside.
FOUR SCREENS, EVERY WEEK
Live Sport
Sky Sports and HBO Max on four big screens. That means every Newcastle United and Sunderland game that gets televised, plus Premier League,
Champions League and every England international. Both local sides are in the Premier League, so there is a game on here most weeks.
Four screens means you are never craning your neck at someone else's match, and on the big ones we put one game on all four so the whole room is watching the same thing.
Rugby internationals, Test and T20 cricket, the majors and the Ryder Cup all get the same treatment. Turn up, get a pint, get a seat.
Big fight nights
Big Screen Boxing
We take the pay per view cards so you do not have to. Full undercard from the first bell, doors open early, and a kitchen serving until late on fight night.
It costs you less than the fight would at home and you get a room full of people watching it with you.
Keep an eye on our Facebook page for the next card. Big fights get busy, so get in early for a table.
MATCHDAY AT THE RIVERSIDE
Pre-Match Drinks and Food
Durham at home? Do not pay over the odds inside the ground.
We open from noon on match days with food served through the afternoon, ales, wines and spirits at club prices, and the ground is a short walk away.
Bar open to all cricket fans, home and away. Two minutes from the railway station, follow the signs for the town centre.
Why become a mason?
At the heart of Freemasonry are its three grand principles
Brotherly Love
Encourages Masons to show tolerance, respect, and kindness, promoting harmony and unity regardless of differing backgrounds.
Relief
Represents a duty to practice charity and provide assistance to those in distress, including both members and the broader community.
Truth
Challenges members to seek wisdom, continually strive for self-improvement, and uphold high moral and ethical standards.
Testimonials
"Had my 60th birthday party at the Masonic Hall on 11th May, everyone had a fabulous night. Staff were helpful and friendly, great prices on drinks, fantastic atmosphere. The catering was also amazing! I’d strongly recommend as a venue for a function!"
