Lovely little traditional pub in Thorpe Arch, not far from the hustle and bustle of Boston Spa.
It was my late grandfather's favourite pub and I can see why. Very friendly atmosphere and staff team (including the most friendly pub cat you'll ever find). They have a nice little traditional menu now including a great burger and loaded fries selection, giving them a bit of a USP, with decent portion sizes at a reasonable price. The pub has two sides, a cosy side with wood burner to eat in and a bigger area with pool table etc where locals and walkers tend to mix and drink together around the bar.
What can I say!
I got in touch with Dane to arrange a surprise 30th for my brother and from the beginning he did everything he could to pull the party off and nothing was too much hassle! We had the BEST night ever! Everyone did! The burgers were the best that people had ever had and believe me there were some burger lovers there especially the birthday boy haha! It was truly fabulous, the bar staff were great & so helpful! We have been going in the Pax for a long time and have seen owners come and go but truly believe that this place is going to get better and better- it has everything going for it now! Thanks so much! Xxx
Well done Dane and team. You served 22 of us today with fabulous Turkey and the food was tasty and hot. Lots of veggies and delicious puds. Everyone said how they liked the layout of the room. Roaring fire was a bonus too. We will be back next year for our annual Christmas family get together. Might be 35 of us next time 😃
Happy Christmas and all the best for 2024
Jackie and family
We held surprise 60th party here last night for our mum, got to say wow, your hospitality was amazing, such lovely friendly staff, a warm atmosphere. The food was excellent. Thank you again for allowing us to hold the party at your pub. Will definitely be back in the future
Lovely Sunday lunch,great value
Such a lovely time at The Pax Inn tonight. We had a group of us come for some food and games and the service was great! Dave and the staff really looked after us and made sure we were catered for. The food was delish - from the burgers and loaded fries to the seriously spicy chicken wings! I would really recommend coming here for good vibes and lovely food. Thanks again for all your hospitality!
Just had a lunch there, which was really good and great sized portions. Steak and ale pie for me, with the best chips I've had in ages. Service was quick and friendly.
The only slight negative was the atmosphere which was lacking a wee bit, but only because it was quiet today.
My companions loved it too.
Visited on a Saturday afternoon hoping to get something to eat as other places had stopped serving food. We all really enjoyed our food, my husband had the steak and ale pie and said it was the best he'd ever eaten in a pub. My mother in law had the gammon huge piece and not too salty, good portions, shame we're not local as this would be a regular place to visit for food and drinks. Good pint of Guinness, too. Highly recommend.
This place is an absolute gem! Check out the homemade hot sauces, one of which is a prizewinner. And the food was absolutely top notch. I had the best halloumi burger of my life, which was so good I bought a second to take back home the misses, who was a 5 hour drive away. And despite enduring the long journey, she still thought it was the most gourmet burger she'd ever had too! Also had Neck Oil on tap to boot. We went back 2 days on the trot. I miss it already.
Had a brilliant time at this pub last night! A group of us hired out the games room, we had so much fun. The staff are super friendly and always ready to help. Was such a nice atmosphere, would highly recommend.
Called in for Sunday lunch. The atmosphere was very good, quite busy. The staff were more than helpful. Ordered lunch and the food was hot and very filling. Drinks seemed expensive but you can have everything. Well worth a visit
I went here the other day with my daughter, sister, nieces and parents. Very friendly environment, and there’s plenty of seating. As far as the menu the food is amazing! I am vegetarian and I had the vegetarian Shepards pie and that was HUGE and delicious. I also got a vegan Yorkshire pudding and it was delicious, of course it wasn’t as huge and puffy as a Yorkshire pudding made with egg, however the taste was unbeatable. I did see my parents Sunday roast meal which was huge, the meat (in their words) was delicious and tender. And the children’s meals were a very good size too. Lovely staff, huge pub, great food and good atmosphere!
Would definitely come back here again when I’m up this way, and would recommend to everyone.
Thank you for a lovely meal x
Really great lunch! Such generous portions and delicious. Lovely service too. We'll definitely be back. Thanks!
Had a lovely evening with friends. The food was beautiful ( especially the steak pie and the massala topped chips) The staff were all really friendly and accommodating and the games room is great. Would highly recommend a visit.
Second visit for us and both times Dane and Carrie have greeted us with a warm and friendly welcome. Food was spot on. Lovely variety, piping hot and delicious. Already looking forward to our next visit.
I popped in today with my mother inlaw and son, and have to say how accommodating the owners were. They swapped things around on the menu to make an ideal dinner for my son. My mother inlaw was so happy with the food and atmosphere she wants to bring my grandparents for Sunday roast. And I ate the best kids cheese beef burger since the 1980’s when I was introduced to whimpy. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We were keen to try the newly reopened Pax Inn for a meal with friends, and I'm glad we did.
The moules mariniere to start were lovely, and a generous portion.
Followed by a delicious burger with all the trimmings and "dirty" fries with a masalla sauce which were first rate.
The ambience will be better when it's a bit busier, but I'm pleased we walked up from Boston Spa to try it out.
It was good quality, albeit straightforward food done well.
Great service and lovely food. All three meals we had were excellent and good portion sizes. Will definitely go back again.
