Christies, Harrogate

A semi-basement that's a bit larger than I expected, and definitely lighter and airier too, all things considered. The bar is on the right with four hand pumps. There was a cider on at the time of our visit, and a couple of real ales, with Ossett White Rat and Timothy Taylor Landlord due to come on next. The Daleside Bitter went off, leaving just Leeds Pale momentarily, but fortunately this was in good nick (NBSS 3). Perhaps not the best of the bars in this part of town, but given how busy the Little Ale House and the Inn at Cheltenham parade can get, this is an acceptablke alternative. Date of visit: 7th July 2023

Angled corner pub oddly set slightly below pavement level. Traditional furniture and decor inside, with a few wooden benches out on a narrow patio terrace. Four handpumps, with Landlord, Daleside Bitter which went of during the pour, Leeds Pale and Rosie's Pig cider featured on our visit.

Refurbished to give a reasonable pub feel, if a bit subterranean thanks to some steps down below road level. Traditional furnishings with several sports screens for entertainment. Four handpumps proved a bit disappointing on this visit, with Leeds Pale and a Lillie's cider on, with TT Landlord and Ossett White Rat coming soon. Apparently something from Daleside had just expired. Tolerable.
