We had a very pleasant stay here for a weekend early October. The room was exceptionally clean. The bed was amazingly comfortable. We only had a chance to have their breakfasts at the time as dinners were not available at the time. As I see from more recent reviews it sounds like the dinners are wonderful! Next time we come John and Dawn! The breakfast was superb! John and Dawn were amazing hosts and were very helpful and accommodating in every way! This was our first time in the UK. Thanks again,

One of our favourite pubs in North Yorkshire. Real traditional vibe serving great beers and the food and service is outstanding. Highlight for me is always the pie. It always feels welcoming and we always schedule a visit when we are up here.
Just stayed at this traditional pub for two nights. Lovely warm, comfy room. Pub has flagstone floors and two fires. Barman Albert was great. Chatty and welcoming. John and Dawn served us a fab breakfast. Serves local beer from Helmsley Brewery amongst other breweries. Very competitive prices. If you are looking for traditional, this is a great place to visit or stay.
Friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere. Games to play while you drink a great selection of ales or wine around a warm open fire. Lovely home cooked pub grub. Highly recommended and dog friendly
This is an amazing village pub with roaring fires and lovely food. We stayed 2 nights and ate in the pub both nights. Very good value for the quality. The locally brewed Helmsley pale ale was just £3.90 a pint with some great pub grub - Fish & Chips with tartar sauce £14.95 or pie and chips the same. I had the F&C's the first night and the turkey ballotine with creamed Brussel sprouts and fondant potato the second night. High end master chef productions and the puddings were fab - the custard tart (crème Brule) style with ginger ice cream was a knock out and only £7.95. This is a gem of a place in a lovely setting. Andy and Dawn the owners are amazing and Albert who works at the bar cant do enough to make the guest experience wonderful. Plus all the locals are super friendly and all dogs are welcome too.
Great country pub with real fire. Well-kept beers and great the food belly pork was amazing. Not expensive, either.
Wonderful place to stay with outstandingly good food and comfortable rooms. I recommend everything on the menu, in particular the custard tart with gingerbread ice cream on the festive menu.
Visited for dinner for my wife's birthday. Wonderful atmosphere in an historic pub. Lovely food, lovely service.
One of two pubs in the village
Have to say we tried the other one first for some food, but the landlord was so rude and condescending we came to this one and it was lovely, so good in fact we went back two nights running
Popped in for dinner & was treated to a lovely pub, friendly service & great food. Definitely recommend!
