No comment on food because they don't serve, however good service and reasonable prices.

Seemed a nice feeling pub on entering. I walked to the bar,lots of people stood at the bar, not so many occupied tables. A very nice gentleman moved up to allow me access to the bar;and barmaid. I stood waiting,not long at all,while the barmaid busied herself doing what she was doing. While I waited patiently a couple entered the premises and stood at the end of bar. She noticed them immediately,she knew them,and served them. My fault for not having a commanding presence,or being known.Basic barkeeping skills fail.I left the Black Swan and went elsewhere.

Popped into this pub whilst visiting Ripon and Harogate. The pub is a hidden gem offering great drinks at very reasonable prices, we were made welcome by the locals and the lovely owners Sarah and Kelly. I would definitely recommend you pop in if your in Ripon for a good night of friendly fun with great drinks. Lovely friendly atmosphere.

Sunday lunch 2 for £20 just like you’d get at home. No frills but homemade Yorkshire puddings and we scraped our plates clean.

Great drinks at Black Swan. Very Dog Friendly and good value for money. Looks are deceiving, we were staying overnight in Ripon and popped in for a pint, very busy and good atmosphere with regulars. We sat in a quiet bit at the back with the dog, barman was really friendly and brought over water and treats for our dog - very thoughtful

Tried booking online twice,no response. Booked for 2 at 18:45, waitress took order for drinks at the bar,we then sat down at table. 2 other couples already sat. Waitress told us of specials and what they didn't have and off she went. An influx of people came in. Service very slow, although just one young lady manning bar and restaurant. A couple who came in after us were given the specials etc, and proceeded to place their order- we then prompted the waitress we were still waiting to place our order. I had Lasagne, which was basically a sheperds pie with pasta sheets! No taste what so ever. Full of carrots,mushrooms etc, but no herbs etc. Very bland indeed. The young lady was rushed off her feet,she had 16 customers in restaurant and 6 in the bar. Would i recommend? No, far better places around,which is a real shameas the pub itself is very quaint
