During a protracted hotel stay, I had ample opportunity to try most of the restaurants, bistros and pubs serving traditional bar food in Harrogate, however, the allurement of quality beer, good company and excellent food kept me returning to this popular bar/bistro. With a regularly changing selection of real ales, continental lagers/beers, all of which were well kept and correctly served by helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a bar snack menu which reflected traditional and modern classics Fancy something a little more formal? No problem. The upstairs bistro contains all of the traditional bar meals plus a wide variety of wholesome meals predominantly utilising locally sourced meat and veg. An ample wine list permits the correct accompaniment to any meal, and all of the ales can be ordered at the table. In short, as a place to enjoy the best of Yorkshire food and drink, this is a hard place to beat.

Old Bell Tavern

Have been drinking here for a while now and decided to try some food on saturday. Ate in the bar and the service was poor, The bar staff are usually ace but not with the food! Would recommend this place though for anyone who likes real ales and foreign lagers. i have heard though that the food upstairs is second to none!
