The first of the pubs we visited in Knaresborough last week and possibly the busiest so we offered to share our upstairs table with Ken and Wendy who are well known in the world of folk music. The Black Sheep Bitter was in excellent condition. paul_d102 - 11 Apr 2022 08:40 |
Closed (coranavirus), but now doing beer/wine delivery via their new website. tradervic - 23 Mar 2020 07:55 |
Blind Jack’s eluded me on my last visit to Knaresborough as it was a Tuesday afternoon and it didn’t open until 5pm so I missed it, that wasn’t g to happen this time. A couple of punters in when we arrived, the bar is in front of you as you enter then there’s another room to the right and 2 further rooms upstairs as well as the ladies toilets, the gents toilets are in the outside courtyard to the rear. Young friendly barman was only too happy to talk through the ales and allow some tasting, which was good for the wife so she could make the right decision! There’s 9 ales on with 4 on from Bad Brewing Co in nearby Dishforth, my pint of their Dazed and Confused with a 5.5% abv was superb. We only stopped here for 30 minutes before we had to head off but this was the best of the 3 pubs I visited in Knaresborough in the afternoon, good choice of ales, friendly locals, central Market Place location the perfect place to shop. Another visit is definitely needed to this pub. lezford - 11 Jul 2016 18:09 |
Unbeknown the day we went was the annual bed racing day where the town heaves with visitors. I thought the pub handled the crowds well but we would love to go back on a quieter day. They brew on the premises although none was available on our visit. having said that the choice of local micros made up for that. The pub has a main room with bar and other parlour style room adjoining. Recommended. Steamer1 - 16 Jun 2013 18:27 |
Nice pub - but the young lass behind the bar spoilt it for me. Obviously a student just guesting, but none the less had a poor attitude. Bit pricey as well, much better pubs nearby. Hollow.legs - 31 May 2013 20:56 |
