Decent selection of beer and large food portions set on a pleasant part of the Stray. Pub of choice for match-going Harrogate Town fans (and away fans).

Nipped in for a pint before the footy game, which was called off, good pub and well priced
Dr william cook
Great coffee, excellent chips and pleasant service. We stopped off here for lunch and it was very pleasant.
Janine Waite
Food was nice, generous portions. We landed on quiz night so was busy with a friendly atmosphere. My partner forgot his jacket with our keys in. Luckily one of the barstaff was very vigilant and chased after us to return it. Many thanks and we owe that lady a drink. We'll be back.

Lovely food for the price, nice little pub. Did get seated a bit awkwardly facing a wall in the path of the men's loo but it was still a nice meal for 2. Good music too compared to other places in Harrogate.

Thursday night is quiz night! Fantastic atmosphere and not at all competitive, ?. Great fun. Always well attended. Do some charity fundraising quizzes too. Plus half time snacks ?.Food is great - as long as you are a carnivore. Come on guys! It's the 21st century. Vegetarian customers want to eat more than a cheese and pickle pannini for dinner, even if it's served with a salad and chips ???.Bar staff always friendly. Would be happy going in here on my own for a drink, to watch a match and not feel uncomfortable.Vegetarian options: Sadly lacking at the moment, unless you like sandwiches ?. Even if you got some veggie/vegan burgers or bangers from Aldi to offer as alternatives to your meat options it would be a start ?Dietary restrictions: They offer gf bread options, not sure about gravies, pies, etc though. Vegan options more restricted than vegetarian.
