Station Hotel, Northallerton

A large former railway hotel with an exuberant exterior built by a confident North Eastern Railway, their coat of arms are still displayed on the outside wall. Inside traces of its former grandeur remain in the public bar ceiling and architrave but otherwise much diminished. The main door is at one end and leads down a corridor to the public and lounge bars, there are also a couple of smaller rooms. The public is at the front and has a counter down almost the whole length of the room with tatty bench seating down the other, a couple of machines stand by the door and there's a big screen at the far end. Decoration is in the form of old enamel signs, some old radios and cigarette vending machines. Beers on the pumps are Tetley Cask, Black Sheep Bitter, Deuchars, and a reversed clip which may have been John Smiths cask or Theakstons, the quality was very good and this is a GBG listed pub.

Close to northallerton train station. Beers from adnams,deuchars & tetley's.
