The Grade II listed Black Swan lies in the heart of Pickering and dates back to the 18th century and was formerly a coaching inn. There is a large main bar, with timber-beamed ceiling, divided into drinking and eating areas. Live entertainment features at weekends. Former home to Great British Breworks Brewery, and their Pathfinder and Coal Porter are still available (though now brewed by Half Moon).

Meals are served lunchtimes and evenings, with designated Pie night on Tuesdays and Fish Friday, and roast dinners on Sunday. Accommodation is available. To the rear is a smoking/ drinking area adjacent to the pub car park.

Children and dogs are welcome.
