Rumour Has It

You'll find Rumour Has It tucked away on Green Terrace, in that stretch of Sunderland where locals actually want to eat rather than just pass through. It's the kind of place that's clearly put thought into what it's doing—the sort of restaurant that makes you realise the city's got more going on than you might've assumed. The vibe is relaxed but intentional, with enough polish to feel special without being stuffy or trying too hard. It's become the sort of spot where regulars keep coming back, which says everything you need to know about consistency and genuine hospitality.
