Delicious food and a lovely atmosphere. We had the Special which was Sweet and Sour pork belly loaded fries and would highly recommend! I also finished off with the homemade baileys Icecream 👌🏻👌🏻 Lynne and Steve who own the Belly Rub as also so lovely. Always have a good chat when we come in! They are also super dog friendly and do a weekly quiz. All money goes to the dogs trust. 🥰

Visited Saturday 8th April 2023, early evening. Superb craft beer bar serving great food. A little hidden, you'll probably not accidentally walk past it if you're around the more tourist orientated areas; however, it's worth making the effort to go. Food is either loaded fries or wraps with various toppings and fillings, portion sizes are excellent and the food is clearly great quality. Beer wise there's two craft beers on keg, the rest is bottled and canned, it's also outstanding, expect to find beers from North Riding, Azvex, Track, Polly's etc, genuine high quality craft beer not run of the mill faux stuff. The place is dog friendly and the owners are great, really friendly and talkative, they clearly care about their business and deserve support. We'll definitely be back.

We love trying all different types of beers and the dirty fries are the perfect sides for all those craft beers there! Pork belly fries and cheeseburger fries are our favourite. We also love the halloumi fries. Very relaxed atmosphere and they are dog friendly.
