Can only give it a 1 star as we didn't stay after we had travelled 2hrs in our motorhome and had pre booked a parking space. Upon arrival in the congested and compact car park with a caravan parked and a mobile food van it was very difficult to A, Navigate the car park and B, Find a pitch. It's advertised on Motorhome Web sites and there's even a video showing numerous motorhomes parked up but unfortunately we were unable to see where we would be placed. I went into the pub and explained that I had infact booked a space. The lady said " Oh we'll move a car." I politely declined as I felt the car park was far too congested to safely leave our vehicle . I understand the car park is free but having pre booked and travelled it was more than an inconvenience.

I can't comment as I was only dropping off, however I would say I was driving a limousine at the time and dropping off my passenger's was straightforward due to the more than adequate space in the Car park and the ability to renter the road was good. Thankyou

Main issue here is food not served very often. Boards outside say daily food. Not so. Will alter my review if they sort out the food situation Shame as venue is good. Plenty of seating outside. Beer garden overlooking cricket ground and woods. Cost, £1/10 each, as no food whenever we visited, Have now had message from owners to say they don't serve food now and signs have been removed 👍

Brilliant for football and sports and will not get a better beer garden with outside Tv for summer. Staff are brilliant especially Abbie who is always friendly and remembers your orders. Definitely worth going anytime of year 😀 danyell the landlady has made this into a amazzing place to drink and socialise all year round 👌

Travelled from Bridlington to pick my son up from Knaresborough and thought I would watch the Leeds v Man United match whilst waiting for him to finish work in Harrogate.I had to write this review as I was so impressed with the Landlady what a lovely lady from when I first went to the bar,she was so welcoming.I had lived in Knaresborough before moving and never been in the pub before wish I had now.This lady is always busy cleaning,serving and always nice,she even apologised for the swearing because of the football not that there was much.Beer and customers were great fun as I watched the match on my own.Thanks I will be back again😁😀👏👏

Dropped in to the Cricketers for Lunch today as heard the bar snacks were good. Was certainly not disappointed - wide range of sandwiches and light lunches available all cooked from scratch and more than ample portion size, the best burger I've had in years! Extremely welcoming staff and great beer/wine. Will definitely be returning and highly recommend to anyone looking for a really tasty pub lunch, good drinks and welcoming atmosphere.

Popped in whilst looking for a quick lunch. Very unusual setting for a tea room but works well with about 10 tables set up between the pews & the altar. The pews act as an overflow area if all tables are taken but we arrived as one was being vacated. Very friendly staff, a relaxing atmosphere and excellent value for money. Menu is limited to a choice of rolls, soup and a tempting range of homemade cakes & scones. Rolls could have improved if pickle, mustard or mayonnaise had been offered but the cakes & scones made up for this as they were very nice. The church itself is a delightful building and worth a visit in it’s own right. An interesting alternative lunch option.

4.5 stars. Wonderful food, possibly the best wings and falafel I've had, served with fantastic fresh salad. Main issue was I did not get the advertised hummus and garlic dip with my meal so everything was incredibly dry. Dry falafel, dry bread and dry chips. The thought of eating falafel without a hummus/garlic dip is actually baffling and sickening to me, if I had known they wouldn't include it then I wouldn't have even ordered. Please, *please*, *PLEASE* actually include this for future orders, am hoping this was just an honest mistake and you are not defrauding customers since your website says this is included (screenshot attached). DRY, DRY, DRY. I think I'm off to drink a reservoir... I did have an extra chilli dip which I paid £1 extra for, did this somehow cancel out my promised humous/garlic dip?! Like I give you extra money and you take things away?! I hope not... *Please* check in future or update your menu if you do not actually intend to supply said-dips. *Dips and sauce are important! If I wanted dry food I'd eat the Sahara Desert*. Anyway, fantastic food but do check your order.
