This pub rocks! I live in the area, and could not want for a better place to spend my free time. The lay out is well thought out, creating pockets of intimate areas that are very tastefully decorated. I have been to some very up market hotels, and even the toilets are cleaner, fresher and more stylish. The service was very prompt, and the waitress was very accommodating. Given that the whole establishment was a complete overhaul, the management have done very well in orchestrating their staff to the level they have, in the time that they have had. The place has been transformed from a crappy slightly dirty local pub, full of piss heads, to something that wouldnt look out of place on the best streets of London. The food was cooked exactly to order. Between the party of six, we tested the menu over a broad spectrum of choice, and with every dish, we werent left disappointed. The drinks were cold and the food was hot, the service was quick, and the staff were very accommodating. To top the whole Meal off, the bill was outrageously cheap. There is no where from here to harrogate that can deal service this well, in surroundings this good, with food of great quality at such an affordable price. I guarantee you wont be disappointed with anything, just impressed from the moment you walk in, to the moment that you leave. Right on the money
