I need to call the pub but the number on the website just has a busy tone all the time. Does anyone know another contact number that i can use?

Full of drug dealing kids who became aggressive when I refused to purchase from them keep well clear, apparently they were moved on from black swan.

Nice place; hard working staff, beautiful outside, in the Summertime. There's a carpark available, close to the town centre.

A casual, no frills, basic pub  located in the centre of Ripon, just off the market square. Friendly welcoming staff and locals. I had a decent pint of guiness at a decent price. Not much atmosphere given that it was 8pm on a Saturday night but it gets very busy around 12am as it has a late licence and I'm told is the go to place when other pubs have stopped serving, hence the 4 stars.

This is definitely a weekend pub. Very quiet during the early part of the week with no cask ales on. all though the John Smith's smooth is acceptable. Bar staff friendly and large covered outside area

Arrive to find a well established pub with a really charming feel, a thirst for a cold Guinness poured by a delightfully stunning lady with jet black hair. My apologies for my memory as faces are better than names(man syndrome). Was delighted to chat with a number of people, including the other side. Much appreciated to all for your hospitality and I look forward to returning. :-)

Nice staff and a good if not old fashioned ambience. The lager was nice. The predominance of wood gave an antiquated charm. Wont be going back though

Stopped by just for a drink as we were visiting Ripon. Traditional pub popular with locals but felt welcome. There is a beer garden at the back when the weather's better too.

We drank here whilst staying in an apartment two houses away. We sat in the beer garden (overlooking the car park). Heading inside to order, the bar was a typical working bar, with snooker table and people enjoying a drink after work. There was a varied selection of beer, albeit the pricing was less than keen. Later during our stay, we headed elsewhere....

Only stopped in twice for a quick drink, and sat both times in the beer garden. Beer was fine; staff seemed friendly; beer garden was paved, but had good seating and Sky Sports on the outside TV.

We love this pub whenever visiting Ripon and always return. The landlords are welcoming and it is evident very popular with locals too. Good facilities too and for those hot summer days the beer garden is not deprived of a TV for those wanting to watch sport.

Called in during a visit to see family. A very lively locals pub, with a warm welcome for strangers like me! The pub keeps a good cellar from what I could see, and whilst I had moved on elsewhere, karaoke was the main entertainment for the evening. Will definitely call again.

Excellent Overnight Stay. Room was very very cosy and clean. Bed very comfortable. Breakfast continental left in room was more than we expected. Well presented and extremely good. Shame we could not stay longer. Hosts were really friendly.

After going in and out of many pubs wine places and eateries on Saturday night the lamb and flag was our last stop and by far the best. Although not many people in at first 9pm we were told it would get busier and it did. The karaoke started around 10ish and it was lots of fun to watch people having fun and enjoying themselves. Drinks a bit pricy though!

Just had a traditional sunday lunch here. What a load of garbage. Beef was shredded, roast spuds were WHITE and soggy, the gravy was brown water. Avoid it. Even charged me full whack for 2 childrens meals.

Visited here on market day. Thought we’d be stuck for somewhere to sit but plenty of space. Food and drink as good as always. Highly recommended to have cinnamon bun warmed, although prefer cakes not to be sat on a paper napkin as things stick, especially the cinnamon buns!

Went there for a couple of big breakfasts, just before noon. On the good side, very cheap. Sausages and hash browns were nice. Coffee was OK. On the less good side, black pudding was so overcooked it was more black biscuit. Bacon was overcooked too but not as much.

VERY UNWELCOMING. Took a trip to knaresborough: like any human-being after a journey we were in need of a refreshing drink and of course the restrooms. My partner was bursting to use the restrooms so decided to use it first before ordering a drink. They ask for a donation which is compulsory if you haven’t ordered anything yet so should be called a FEE (go up and give them the fee) to use the restroom. However I did not use the restrooms myself and waited for him to come out so we could decide what to drink together. The lady berated me excruciatingly for simply standing silently, waiting…this could’ve been asked and explained nicely but no. If I did not want to order anything I would not have waited inside I would have simply stood outside in the sun a few steps away. It was extremely uncomfortable even whilst walking in I was being stared with judging looks by the man sat next to the bar. he could’ve been the landlord as there was no guest eating or drinking. BUT my mistake was not showing money first. I was tired and I have high levels of anxiety especially in new places and socially so I did not say anything and quietly walked out and waited outside whilst she carried on shouting things at me. This disrupted what was meant to be a nice day out to knaresborough. This is something that I did not forget about the day. She did not leave me a good impression of the people here. Would not recommend this place if you want a nice day out with peace of mind.
