| Always a good selection of real ales. Would be nice if they were a bit cheaper. Molly the spaniel is daft and cute. 3rd Wednesday of the month there is a spoken word night: Poems, Prose & Pints. I have to recommend that, I'm one of the organisers ;) cheekychinchilla - 15 Jul 2011 00:54 |
| Mixed experience here. Tend to agree that there were too many beers on . The Old Peculier that i had was on the turn, but the other two that i sampled were well kept. A bit of a shame as the Landlord clearly loves his ale. Would try again as everyone can have an off day. ahscum - 19 Sep 2010 14:57 |
| Used to drink here weekly for years despite the prices. But have only gone there rarely for the last year. I think there may be too many different beers on for the management to look after/turn over properly. A number of pints have had to be returned undrunk having sadly gone west, which, at these prices is a shame. A tally is kept on the blackboard of the number of different brews served over the years, which is commendable. But variety is no substitute for quality, and it would be preferable to settle down to a few regular gooduns, with maybe just the one new one each week. I hope things improve in this regard because decent real ale in Harrogate town is uncommon. exercitusx - 7 May 2010 18:34 |
| Visited this pub recently. We were expecting high prices (being in Harrogate), but honestly £2.95 for Copper Dragon Golden Pippin in a back street pub is madness, especially as, 50 yards away, you can get the same stuff for £2.70. Even that is a bit pricey (it's £1.80 in our local club). An amusing pub dog, mind you, and no problems with beer quality. Just greedy pricing. arihall - 31 Mar 2010 21:13 |
| Expensive beer. Odd clientele. Try the Coach and Horses, Old Bell or Hales Bar for good beer and a friendlier atmosphere. torra - 16 Jan 2010 16:57 |
