J D Wetherspoon - The Unicorn in Harrogate

Thoroughly enjoyed a lovely cooked breakfast with unlimited tea/coffee. Service was quick and the staff were friendly.

Really good. Hot food. Fast service. Armistice parade day. Very busy. Been before. Will go again

The girl behind bar, piercings I've seen quicker snails than her...customer service course wouldn't go a miss either

Wouldn't recommend this place to my dog, staff are absolutely useless they couldn't run a bath never mind a pub, the so called manager (Ryan) blamed customers after his own mess ups and then ran off hiding into the kitchen, tail between legs feeling sorry for his poor soul when proven wrong, imagine ordering food and the food coming out each item of each meal on separate plates 😂 that's the standard in Ripon finest

I highly recommend this restaurant. Everything worked perfectly, the service was friendly, the food was excellent, and the prices were low considering the high quality. I recommend it to everyone. Breakfast with my family from America was a success and praised by people from across the ocean.

Quick service. Clean. Good value food.

The service is so slow in here, there obviously isn't enough staff, plus it's going to be busier on race days. Don't places like this think about what's going on in their area. Poor planning. Thirsk Wetherspoons are on top form race days!!!

Another good Wetherspoons to add to our list. Nothing unusual about the building like some we have been to but that's not to say it wasn't worth the visit. Again, staff were friendly and helpful. Pub had a decent atmosphere. Food was good. What more could you want.

Cheap and cheerful. Awful microwaved food

Good service, lots of seats but cam get busy. Limited parking during busy times but there's parking just over the road.

I was eating and saw a mosquito in my food, my berger was still quite cold, maybe because I arrived late at 11:00 pm the food was not thoughtful.

On holiday in the area called in 2 nights.Enjoyed BBQ chicken and Steak and Kidney pudding.Only disappointed was they did not do Pizza like some Weatherspoons.

Good value and decent food. Pleasant staff. I would happily come back here again!

Very friendly people, if in the area I would go here again

I can't complain about the food as it was cheap enough. However, what I can complain about is the big girl behind the bar. What an unpleasant, rude, and arrogant person she is. I was the only person stood at the bar, and there were 3 members of staff behind the bar, all talking. I am not exaggerating when I say I was stood at the bar for at least 5 to 7 minutes. I said to a young lad who seemed to be doing something on the till, "is there anyone serving?" He looked over to the 3 members of staff and said something. They all looked at me and just carried on talking. Then, 20 to 30 seconds later, this big girl ambeled over. I asked her if anyone was serving. Her response was, "What today?" After waiting so long to be served, that wasn't the response I was wanting to hear. She was so slow not just at getting my order but at everything she did. I have to say I have seen more life in a tramps vest. I have seen a sloth move faster. There is no way she should be front of house. It is very unlikely I will visit this place again.

Good choice of ales friendly staff makes the unicorn well worth a visit

Friendly staff great service. A Wethersoons everyone should visit

Very busy but we got a seat! Nice staff, quick service, we only had coffee, which is standard in all Wetherspoons, as it is from a machine, clean toilets.

Busy Friday night and weekends.

Good beer. Friendly staff. Had the fish and chips which were very nice. Lovely white fish fresh cooked and hot 😁

Yeah come all the time some staf are a little off

I live in Harrogate, but I choose to travel (on 36bus) to Ripon, to the Unicorn. Very pleasant, not noisy like ‘Winter Gardens’ harrogate. Friendly staff 🧡 Fish/Chips/Peas & a pint Guinness for £11:17pm.. Guinness in the meal is £2:37 !! Also tried the Haggis (for Burns week) lovely. I visit once a week & do my grocery shop in Sainsburys & Home Bargains. Rate this ‘Spoons’ (& the Knaresborough one)

Was ok. Typical spoons but nice atmosphere decent food and friendly staff.

Don't expect the Dorchester or the Ritz but for a small breakfast and as much coffee as you can drink it's £4.95 it's £5.00 for a coffee in Betty's . The building at JD's is fantastic it's a wonder there's not an entrance fee to look round.

Good value food and drinks with no pretentions.

Great place waiting staff were awesome

Nice afternoon watching rugby and having a few scoops

Great environment serving excellent food and drinks and plenty of accomodation and tables available. The service is super fast and there is a wide ranging menu to suit all tastes. Friendly and efficient staff, we like Wetherspoons!

Some staff are amazing there...

Good pub ,nice location, would recommend

Perhaps we've been to Weather spoons too often. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food cooked/prepared well. Somehow the sparkle was missing as it all seemed a bit rushed and impersonal. However, you cannot denigh it was excellent value. The wine we picked was also very good.

Did not Enjoy our meal at all.Had Beefburgers they were verydry and tasteless.

Another top weatherspoons, well used we had bargain meal and a number 10 tanquery gin&tonic, excellent all round, a mix of oap,, families and tourists found inside here.

Excellent pub staff & service..top job.!!😁😎👍

Great hotel .centre if ripon . Would stay again

Food cold both times we went but staff were friendly

Great place, lovely food. Wide range of food and drinks to choose from. Kind and friendly staff. Highly recommended

Very nice Wetherspoon pub. Quite spacious inside. The food was very nice and the service was very quick. All the usual Wetherspoon fayre. Friendly staff.

The breakfast was nice, but the staff didn't talk to the customers, they brought the breakfast and disappeard didn't even ask if everything was OK..

Very nice food, staff could be a bit more happy lol

One of the good witherspoons we had a breakfast and a dinner at the time we spent in ripon and both meals were very good

Their app is brilliant. Avoids queueing!

Noisy and busy but quick service and good food as always 😋

Stayed the night on our way to Scotland nice clean rooms helpful staff right in the centre of ripon.

A very enjoyable time and meal as always

Great place, great food! We've been able to find a table for 12!))

I used the app to order drinks and meals. The drinks arrived very soon afterwards with the food shortly afterwards, despite the pub being very popular at the time.

Very nice breakfast that's all I went for

Your standard Wetherspoons experience - cheap food and nice beer

Officers and senior N. C. O's have breakfast here on Rememberance Day.

Lovely food, friendly staff, quick efficient service

Food good value, meal + drink. Quick service, staff nice & friendly. Very good experience.

Quick and polite service from a very pretty young lady. Nice cosy pub and atmosphere.

Excellent value for money - standard 'spoons fare

Had a burger was beefy just how I like them

Great Wetherspoon and another unique carpet seen! We had food here which was sound and exactly as you'd expect from 'spoons. Drinks were great too. There's plenty of seating in this pub too.

Typical "Spoons" good food at reasonable prices. Not too keen on the "Oven Chips" but they were hot. Tea was nice. Friendly staff.

Disabled toilets out of order and the other toilets were up flight stairs which I was unable to use.Food was ground in carpet under table and coffee machine was serving cold coffee .

Great value Tuesday steak day £8 including soft drink, 8oz sirloin and chips well cooked

Absolutely terrible food we left it all 3 meals where bad .Dirty tables had to clear our own before we sat down

Just your average witherspoons...

Not the best Wetherspoons I've used. Now much improved a little wait for food, but it was busy, however when meals arrived warm and tasty.

Good value for money, very good food and excellent service.

Hotel and pub, centrally located.

Brilliant food and drink cheap and cheerful

Staff very friendly. I called in here with a friend who has mobility issues and there is one disabled parking space directly outside but only for 1 hour. Luckily our food was served quickly, and very nice it was too 👍

Always get a decent pint and a good selection of ciders.😁👍🍺

Went for a meal there. Great food as always.

Always great for quick food & drink & open late for suprise meetings & catch ups ! Always a mixed crowd.

With a Witherspoon you get what is advertised. Cheap drinks, descent food, nice atmosphere. Overall a relaxing evening/ night out. 👍

Service good, food OK, pretty much what you expect from wetherspoons.

A good spoons with friendly staff

Lots of delicious veggie options, and helpful staff.

Cheap and cheerful loved my 3.99 small fish and chips with a drink

Definitely the best Witherspoon's in Ripon.

They look after the Veterans. Veterans Breakfast Club 1st Saturday every month.

Usual Wetherspoons fare plus rooms available. Great location on the Market Place on Ripon.

Indian tika fabulous, poppadoms, naan bread and rice. Washed down with a cup of tea.

Fare price, good service good food. Enough said

A male member of staff extremely rude to myself and friend felt insulted will never go again

Both of us could not have our food of choice because you didn't have bbq sauce! and sainsburys is next door!!. Plus your barmaid didn't seem to like her job. Food was okay thou
