About The Kings Arms

The Kings Arms on Askrigg main street is an imposing Grade II-listed building that was once owned by the renowned horse trainer John Pratt, who famously won the 1872 St Leger with ‘Imperatrix’. It’s also now an indelible part of Yorkshire Dales folklore as the location of ‘The Drovers’ in the original ‘All Creatures Great and Small’. The Kings Arms is still packed full of character with a striking open fire, flagged stone floors and old photographs and equine memorabilia spread throughout. It’s open for food and drink daily from 12 noon onwards and proudly showcase a diverse range of beers from the local village brewery and the surrounding area.

Visited for Sunday lunch, the pub itself is beautiful and so welcoming. The staff were so helpful, friendly and professional and the lunch was presented beautifully and tasted homely and certainly is value for money. We will absolutely be back !!!!!

Lovely pub, great atmosphere, warm with open fires and delicious food
Rob Horsfield
This was much more than just a pub meal in the bar, it was fantastic food eaten in a really fun and lively traditional pub, with brilliant staff who loved what they were doing. Well done and thank you to everyone who was in The Kings Arms for pie night, we loved being there. I’m a big eater and even I was full after a starter and main! Just a shame that the open fire was roaring away instead of a hot radiator!

Excellent food, great service, lovely atmosphere
Hilary Baker
Food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. Roast dinner as you would want. Superb bottle of Pinot Noir too. Service was excellent. So friendly and attentive. We sat in a cosy corner in the restaurant area next to the bar and at the front of the building . Comfortable seating.

Delicious evening meal, served in the restaurant. Lovely friendly staff too. Enjoyed drinks in the bar area, with pictures on the walls of the original All Creatures Great and Small characters. Traditional style pub makes for a lovely atmosphere.
