We had lunch here whilst visiting Thirsk in March this year and were impressed. I would certainly rate it as certainly one of the better pubs in the town. It is clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and efficient. And as ‘oldboots’ says there is a strong horse racing theme. The Black Sheep was pretty good and so were our meals. We checked out the other pubs nearby, but the Golden Fleece seemed to be head and shoulders above the others. More to the point it seemed to be very popular with the more discerning locals, which is another pretty good sign. After lunch we visited the World of James Herriot (BBC TV’s All Creatures Great and Small) in nearby Kirkgate, which was very good too. steve2905 - 17 Oct 2009 02:40 |
| An old coaching inn from the days of the Great North Road. Large brick building on the market place popular with the 'turf' on race days. The bar is decorated in modernish style with high back chairs while retaining an older elegance. Racing memorabilia, framed silks, members enclosure badges etc. give a racing theme. This is definitely the kind of place where all the chairs match. Well kept Black Sheep bitter and Shep's Spitfire, the usual Guinness, Carlsberg, Strongbow and Tetleys plus San Migel. Food is good and reasonably priced, mains around £7. Service pretty good, the barman pulled off a pint or two to clear the line before serving me as I was the first on Spitfire that day, although he was sometimes absent from behind the bar when needed. oldboots - 12 Oct 2009 08:12 |
