Carpenters Arms in Hambleton

A really pleasant pub, much larger then expected but maintains it's atmosphere. Staff are very polite and friendly without being unecessarily attentive. The food was delicious and good value for money. Dog and child friendly. Would recommend.

Super quiet and nice countryside hotel. Very comfortable bed. Warm rooms for cold winter days. Shower has really good water pressure. Lovely, stylish garden

We booked at table for 8 for Sunday lunch. Restaurant was busy but not packed. Service was slow and atrocious. We genuinely felt unwanted and considering we were there to spend money there was no attempt to accommodate any of our needs. Some of our party waited an hour and a half for something to eat. The food was underwhelming and uninspiring. We waited so long for the dessert menus, we paid and left. No attempt was made to apologise for the delay.

We ate here a week ago while we were in yorkshire visiting my husbands relatives. As we had travelled up with our dogs we chose this place because it was dog friendly and it definately was. The dogs were brought their own comfy bed to lay on, a water bowl and a treat by the staff. 5* just for that alone! The food we ordered was absolutely delicious. We were really glad we found this place and sad its so far away and we cant visit more often. If we are in yorkshire again we will definately be returning!

Love the location and outdoor seating areas.

Wow , a true hidden gem .with it's gorgeous surroundings and warm and friendly welcome to some fine nibbles and ales we really hit lucky finding this one . Will come back .

We have not visited since two bad experiences post Covid! We recently heard some excellent reviews so booked for a meal! Wow what a difference, back to pre pandemic food fabulous, staff friendly, helpful and professional! Definitely back on my favourite list! We will be back and definitely recommend a visit. Jess was our waitress and so helpful and friendly. Unfortunately I did not get the name of the lady who took us to the table but she was lovely and customer service 100%. Well done for getting it back to high quality.

Visited with a large group and the service was excellent. The food was excellent,as was the choice and value for money. Accommodation is also superb and I can highly recommend this place, for any occasion. The staff are extremely efficient and friendly and absolutely enhance the experience. Drinks are also tip top, as is the selection.

Theakstons best on top form, soup of the day and some fancy spicy chicken. Loved it.

First visit to this extraordinary Gastro pub. The location & decor are amazing together with a luxurious garden which can be viewed from the restaurant. The menu & food are second to none. This has been one of the best meals I have had for a long time. Treat yourself

Brilliant hotel in every way, rooms, food, service & clean. Will definitely return.

Came for Sunday dinner, thought going early would mean it was fresh however the roast potatoes were hard to cut and the chips were like rubber, wasn’t much veg selection which was disappointing due to the good reviews we were looking forward to eating a nice meal. £22 for roast beef and £22 for fish and chips- not worth it, didn’t bother with desert

We came here Sunday 28th July. It wasn't a great experience. We followed the signs from the main road, not knowing what we'd find. It's a lovely place don't get me wrong. We sat outside at the front. When enquiring about food the bar staff didn't seem very interested so we gave up and just had a drink. The disinterest left me feeling I wasn't wanted, my money wasn't good enough just because i was in my walking shorts and tshirt. While the sunny position and quiet tables were good, we left a bit put out, and it put a dampener on what had otherwise been a brilliant day.

Food was good and service was excellent they were really great with our dog too, but when they got busy things started to not be excellent and desert, coffee (didn't turn up) and the bill took ages... Really want to give this cracking pub 5 stars but will have to go again sometime. Update: Tried again more recently and almost exactly the same experience, food was excellent and service very friendly but again we gave up waiting to pay and paid at the bar

Really enjoyable meal on a warm sunny evening. We were sat in the dining room off the back of main bar area, which is a nice open plan area with a further small private dining area off to the side. We had a lovely crispy chicken starter with salad, followed by a pork belly main and a salmon burger with chips. All the food was cooked really well and the service was very prompt, friendly and efficient throughout. There was a nice large terrace to the rear of the dining area with good views across the fields. We’ll visit again if we’re in the area.

Lovely setting, great food too.

Good food nicely served attentive staff beautiful views from outside sitting area worth a visit or two

Restaurant a very convenient location and distance from our holiday cottage we are staying at Down as a family we took the opportunity to eat out. Staff friendly and helpful, service was great, food exceptional Love that there are dogs beds though in the bar for your special friend when in for a quiet pint. Up where we are from you never see this atall Makes the place feel cosy and welcoming and relaxed All great qualities for a bar and restaurant

Lovely rooms nice views and wonderful gardens. The rooms are chalets. Food is fantastic. But we were very disappointed with some things that should not happen or should have been picked up before checkout. Other rooms food and drink bills put on ours. Especially when they were not near us in rooms other side of garden. Plus there were 4 of them. Really need a show your room key number and name before putting on a room tab. Good job the young girl on reception was on the ball the following morning. Also when we sat in comfortable chairs there was the previous peoples plates drinks and things just left for ages there. I had to go up in the end and ask. Even then they weren’t taken so had to ask one of the staff. Doing other tables that nobody was sat at to please clear other people’s dishes of the table we were sitting at. Just lacking I’m afraid attention to detail. I know hospitality is struggling with staff but come on guys it really is not good.

Please make sure you visit - I only had a pint and a rump steak sandwich but both excellent- Black Sheep IPA very very good - staff very friendly and polite - very dog friendly

Visited the Carpenters Arms tonight for a Birthday Celebration. The food was excellent, we both had the Salmon burger. Beautifully presented. Then Chocolate mousse dessert and iced Strawberry parfait. Thank you and with special thanks to Juliet for going over and above in her helpful manner. Mr and Mrs Ward

Didn't stay but it is a lovely pub in a lovely place with really nice food

Lovely country pub, great views from the beer garden

Lovely location and service food was good but not excellent

We came to Yorkshire to visit our friends and they treated us to lunch. The staff were so friendly and the setting was beautiful. I had the pork belly which was absolutely incredible and we also had the fish and chips, steak and ale pie. All the food was faultless and this is a place that would definitely come back too.

Excellent food and attentive staff. Lovely garden where it would be very pleasant to eat, in more clement weather.

Two fears I usually have whenever I travel to a place to eat: the hygiene and having severe picky eating. If you have these fears like me, rest assured that Carpenters Arms has excelled in all aspects - lovely and understanding staff, beautiful interior, the bathrooms were in beautiful condition. For what the place is too, the food was cheap and delicious! Hope I will visit again eventually!

The food here was amazing. The portion sizes were huge and they are very dog friendly, even providing dog beds for your dog. The people were friendly too and the atmosphere and decor were lovely.

Towel rail burnt my husband arm deep Breakfast wonderful

Spent a lovely evening here with our dog. The garden room we spent the evening in, was very nice and we really enjoyed both the evening meal and breakfast. The staff were really friendly and their service was excellent. Without a doubt I think we'll be visiting this location again. Many thanks.

Great little hote. The garden rooms are amazing. Food is good and staff are lovely. Location is good and views are wonderfull but nothing else there, near to Thirsk, Sutton Bank and Helmsley

Lovely pub and garden, friendly and helpful staff. Beer and cider choices are great quality. Parmesan fries were very nice too.

All good, no complaints - we all enjoyed lunch here.

We had a lovely meal with friends, at the carpenders Arms Felixkirk nr Thirsk. The food was great, the service was great, the waitresses were really friendly, and the bar staff were great. Would recommend this country pub for food and drinks 100%.

Brilliant Gem of a Country inn , just outside Thirsk , stumbled upon it by chance while out visiting English heritage sites . They were extremely busy when we called in but seated us for a meal with no fuss at all . The meal I had A roast pork dinner was superb , and my partners meal a roast beef dinner was also excellent , I never eat cauliflower and cheese , but when they brought a pot of it to the table it looked and smelt amazing.....I tried it and loved it . Staff were excellent all round , the establishment was spotless with great on site parking , the outside space at the back was simply amazing....with plenty of space , seating and amazing views. We will definitely return next time we are in the area .

Sunday lunch was good but we had to wait for half an hour for our table...and then wait a further 15 minutes for a drinks order. Yes, it was busy and is popular but it was disappointing to wait so long...and we were not alone in having to wait!

Visited last night for the first time for my birthday meal with my husband Firstly beautiful setting The pub was lovely & the dining really smart Food was delicious & the service was excellent After our meal had a Irish coffee Sat in the bar area and Me and husband played dominos fab way to end my birthday. Thank you carpenters arms for a wonderful evening.

Great place, stayed overnight a while ago & room was fantastic. It's in a tiny hamlet so not everyone's cup of tea. Food very good, nice bar / dining area. Staff excellent

We recently visited for Sunday Lunch. The service was excellent and the food was spectacular. We will definitely be frequenting again

Fantastic pub! All the right ingredients; kid friendly, dog friendly, great food with a nice range of options, genuinely warm and friendly staff, fireplace (2), good value, the list goes on. Don’t sleep on this little gem!

Food was terrible for the price

Almost don't want to tell how good this pub is, I want it for myself, an absolute gem of a country pub in a setting that would make any jonny foreigner to live in the UK, staff excellent, food, as good as any I've ever tasted, can you believe dog beds so that your puppy doesn't have to lay on the flag stone floors, fire places everywhere.. Just superb.. Can't wait to go back.. 10 out of 10..

Popular, beautiful old pub in the countryside with stunning views. Atmospheric especially due to Christmas decorations & snow. Staff courteous & attentive. Meal was "ok"...however roasties tough, sprouts, carrots & swede tasteless & cabbage swimming in water. Turkey, stuffing & pig in blanket very nice & tasty as was the pud. £28 for 2 course meal. Enjoyed our Xmas family gathering there. Would visit again & recommend the Carpenters Arms. Thank you. Merry Christmas to you all.
