An imposing pub on Harrogate's much revered “Stray”, a parkland around part of the town centre, and next to the roundabout that bears its name. The pub is divided into two areas, on the right hand side is a pool table and two sports screens, whilst the left hand side is laid out with tables and chairs and more of a dining area - the pub is well known for its Sunday carveries. There is a function room upstairs which is used also for dining.

This pub uses Autovac
