Great choice of beers. Was allowed a couple tasters and they were both delicious. The choice felt unlimited coz there so many unheardof beers which all deserve a taste. Feels a bit clique-ey if thats a word , but if you get along with people youll be reet. I enjoyed my time here. Would recommend the blonde - less than 4% but id had a few already. They have 8% draught tho which after my drinkin since breakfast i wasnt brave enough to try. Honestly would recommend !
An Untappd Verified Venue means you can do your research beforehand as there’s so many options to choose from. The Landlord is a delight to talk to and has created a beer drinkers dream here particularly if you like sport as well. The cask ale I had was the best of the day, there’s also a great selection of cans for sale if you want any train beers if you’re travelling home.
Very busy pub on a Saturday afternoon. Bar staff a delight and beer even better. Timothy Taylor Landlord exquisite. At least 3 different TV screens on but everyone friendly.
Wonderful selection of real ales and a few stronger craft ones too. Lovely staff and proper pub vibe. My favourite pub in Scarborough.
Visiting Scarborough for the weekend we headed for this pub after reading the reviews on here. And it was well worth the walk from our B&B. Never been in a pub with such a fantastic selection of cask ales! My wife loved the ciders on offer too. The attention to detail with the pub name on beer mats and glasses ect was amazing. Great atmosphere and friendly locals. Nice and clean. The landlord takes great pride in this establishment and certainly knows how to look after the beers on offer. Also has won the town pub of the year 2024. Recommended.
