    Called in today and after trying several other pubs beforehand the staff here bent over backwards…read moreto help my wife who has Coeliac so must follow a gluten free diet, the chef changed ingredients on some of the meals on the menu that weren't gluten free to ensure they were safe for her. it's a great pub the staff are friendly, attentive, helpful and quicker than a £million pound backhander into a politicians back pocket, the meals arrived promptly and piping hot The meals were tasty and cooked to perfection, I can highly recommend you give them a try next you visit Harrogate, we'll certainly be paying them another visit. I also thoroughly enjoyed the ice cool Cider it was made by the people of Cornwall who 'Aaaargh' renowned for making it. but I believe they've stopped selling Cornish pasties due to massive cost increases.....apparently the Cornish 'Pie-Rates' have gone through roof. PS - A special thank you to Alan for all his help in making our visit such a pleasure. John Taggart

While waiting for my meal I enjoyed two excellent local ales. When the food arrived to my table it was perfectly prepared. The chicken curry was well-worth the visit and my fiance enjoyed her scampi. I finished the meal off with some amazing sticky toffee pudding and a cup of espresso. I will be back, for the beer, food, service and atmosphere! This is a hidden gem.

    We came, we saw, we conquered! And by that I mean we added this great new addition to the 'tap'…read morefamily (Euston, York, Sheffield taps) to Yelp, enjoyed a couple of great beers each from their range of at least 30 draught/ 100 bottles and went twice in the same evening - starting our night here and finishing it off in style with the return visit! As with all the taps, they have a fantastic mix of UK breweries and American craft, Belgian and European brews - plus a bottle menu with beers ranging from a few quid to some very special ones (hello Hopping Frog at £18 and unfortunately not in my price range!) I had an amazing Tiny Rebel/Dark Star collaboration with my wife enjoying a Belgian fruit beer - we were both very very happy with our choices! The actual venue is pretty cool and just the sort of place you want to hangout in, with a clientele of all ages into good quality hoppy stuff! Special mention has to go to the amazing pork pies on sale - £2.50 a pop and from the excellent Elite meats. Mine was amazing and made even better by having 'Sierra Nevada Mustard' served with it - mega yum! Basically Harrogate Tap is a great excuse to miss the train - make sure you check it out if you're into beer, you won't regret it!

    With a healthy supply of draft beer on cask and keg, and a large fridge filled with cans and…read morebottles, the Tap should always be on your list of pubs to visit in Harrogate. Don't forget to grab a couple of train beers on your way out of town.

Sounds like a plan Stan but one more quick tipple and whet the old whistle so I pop into Banyan Bar. It's an appealing looking building from outside to in and has the same people behind it as Arc in Headingley. It was also voted best bar in Harrogate in the Harrogate Confidential Awards and it's a boast that it may well deserve some claim to. For starters the food looks immense. One of their signature dishes is the Kobe burger, the worlds most expensive and decadent beef originating in the Kobe region of Japan. These cows are massaged for a stress free life style. Well as stress free as it can be before you become a burger I suppose. They also do buffet menus which offer a variety of wraps, nibbles and sandwiches. All for under a tenner. The wine list is to my liking. Try the Pinot Grigio blush, ideal drink when the sun comes out. As for the cocktails...This town really is no good for my liver. Inventive and tantalising combinations of juices and spirits. Excellent work. Great for socialising, eating and with a beautifully down interior. I just hope I don't get sat next to one of those massaged cows next time I go there.

    I came to eat here last week with my boyfriend and his family. I was especially looking forward to…read morecoming here as it had won Restaurant of the Year 2011 by Eat Sheffield! The drive to the restaurant was lovely and scenic, going down dark and winding country roads until suddenly we drive around a corner and The Devonshire Arms appeared! We'd got there a little early and we sat down by the bar for some drinks. The menu was displayed on a chalkboard by the seating area and it all looked yummy! The dining area was quite small but very nice and cosy. The kitchen was open and you could see the chefs chopping and cooking away which I quite liked. I chose the rabbit and pheasant terrine with grape chutney as my starter; it came with onion bread and the slice of terrine was huge! I really wanted to finish it, but I couldn't as there was no way I'd be have enough room for my main! For the main, I had venison steak served with new potatoes (usually served with mash which I couldn't have as it had milk/cream in it) and braised red cabbage. The steak was pink and cooked to perfection and the red cabbage was sweet but with a little tart edge to it. I didn't have a dessert but the rest of the party did - my boyfriend had a deconstructed banana cheesecake and his sister had a brownie (I overheard her saying it was the best brownie she'd ever tasted!). All of the staff were really nice, especially the lady who served us that night, she was really lovely and very attentive. The Devonshire Arms fully deserves it's awards and hope it gets more in the future. If you're ever around the Sheffield area and want to venture out of the city centre for some food make sure you come here. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect meal.
