The Little Ale House in Harrogate - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great place, has a wonderful ourdoor area

Lovely bar maid with amazing knowledge on the beers this little place had to offer. It's small and quaint. But with 2 beer gardens and loads of liquid choice, it's well worth a visit.

Fantastic little ale house. Needless to say, amazing beers, great service and very friendly regulars.

Always a nice atmosphere here, friendly staff and customers, call in whenever my brother visits me in Harrogate! Lovely beers

Excellent beer, service and atmosphere

Lovely cosy pub with great knowledgeable staff/owners with great beer and wine will return again soon Xx

Best real ale pub in Harrogate (that we found). The ales change regularly all excellent choices. The wine was also very good quality. Very dog friendly.

Fantastic place, really great selection of beers and ales with a great atmosphere. Made really good use of the space which has a great atmosphere but at the same time feels cosy. Will deffo be returning next time we're down that way.

Excellent bar. It is absolutely worth a visit as the drinks are top notch at reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend.

An extensive range of products - we were there for cask for me - though my wife wasn't as keen on the lager options. We found the basement and joined a conversation (as we do up north!) though it was rammed on a Fridsy at 9:30.

Charming & cozy, expert staff that care about their beer (and gins)

As always, great beers, great staff, all in great place.

Fabulous real ale house with plenty of character. Bar staff knowledgeable and very welcoming 😀. Do yourself a favor and Pop In for a pint!

First visit to the Little Ale House wen on holiday in Harrogate, beer was great as was the staff and service and buzzing atmosphere. Small but load of character, would deffo recommend a visit but get there early if you need a seat x

Obscured entrance, nice old fashioned wooden interior with kegs and pipes everywhere - very steam punk! Nice craft ales - recommended, but small and busy!!

To use a well worn cliche, it does what it says on the tin. The Little Ale House is (unsurprisingly) small but has charm, this is a cozy place that wears its age on its sleeve. The beer selection (also unsurprisingly) is solid. Clearly it has its fans too, we arrived 30 minutes after it opened to find every seat with a bottom on it - it’s a well heeled crowd too, but then again this is Harrogate. Recommended…..if you can squeeze in.

Nice small real-ale bar, serving a very good pint of beer. Had a selection - 5 at a guess - on tap with a good choice of range from stout to summer ale.

Great little venue with a brilliant atmosphere and a good selection of beers, highly recommended

Popped in here at the end of a rainy day wandering in Harrogate. Small, perfectly formed and with a great selection of beers on tap and a few bottles examples. Dog friendly, and busy when we visited.

Decent pint, sat downstairs as it was busy.

Such a chilled out little hideaway in the centre of town, has a great selection of wine and beer including a red favourite of mine: Sicilian passimiento. Always a laid back atmosphere with candlelight in the evenings and a cosy beer garden. Staff are lovely and friendly too. Definitely a go to place for a relaxing drink away from the mayhem of some of the other bars in town

Great beer. Especially the stouts.

It's always a great place to visit. Bar staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Real fire warming the place. Good selection of different beers and other drinks. Although it is little; it's in the name, they do have a beer to suit every taste.

Possibly my favourite bar in town! Very cosy and quirky offering some fine ales locally and afar! The owners and staff are incredibly friendly and you’ll never be disappointed to enjoy your time there. A lovely warm fire is lit in the colder months and the courtyard, front patio offers a delightfully relaxing atmosphere. Perfect for our curry club before we indulge in the local spice house!

Top class pub serving fine ales.

We loved everything about this little gem, from upstairs to downstairs, an excellent range of tasty beers and friendly staff, patrons and pooches. Everyone should have a local like this.

Cool cosy Micropub with an unintentional Harry Potter vibe. Great beers and whiskies on offer and a lovely candlelit atmosphere.

Excellent little pub, great atmosphere.

After a day of experiencing York, we decided to go back to the AirBnb in Harrogate and head out. We were advised by the server at the Stuzzi restaurant to go to this place. Chalk board full of beers with tables in the cellar to discuss life over! Very charming

First time visiting but I will be back 🤓🤓👍

Great little gem. Always a nice pint

Nice choose of beer, good service always on my visit yo Harrogate plans

Busy and popular wee place when we visited so not a lot of seating remaining but we weren't there to sit, but went for the beer, which did not dissapoint.

Brilliant traditional Ale House. Great service with an outside area for warmer times

We visit Harrogate probably twice per year and the Little Ale House is the first place we aim for. Excellent beer good atmosphere and near many good restaurants. Well worth a visit if you prefer excellent draught ales served in a cracking pup.

Lovely pub with very friendly staff and great selection of beer, wine and spirits.

Excellent beer choices, and the staff really know what they are talking about.

It really us a little ale House. Very small with limited seating although there was a cellar room open. Reasonable selection of craft beers available along with a goid array of spirits too.

Possibly my favourite place to drink in Harrogate. Super friendly staff, always a great atmosphere. Great selection of keg and cask. Looking forward to my return in December.

Pleasant surroundings and friendly atmosphere

A real gem in the heart of Harrogate. Superb selection of real and craft beer but also an excellent wine menu. Very highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wonderful surroundings and great atmosphere.

Superbly kept ales and friendly service - one of the very best ale pubs I’ve visited recently and really enjoyed my afternoon enjoying the drinks and ambience.

Popped in for a first visit on Wednesday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised at the laid back welcoming atmosphere. The friendly barman poured me the perfect pint of Saltaire Blonde which was enjoyed in the sunny beer yard at the back which was a joy. Will definitely be back next time I’m in town

Great drink selection, but the prices are a bit steeper than in other pubs in the same area.

Great atmosphere, great selection of beers, great friendly service.

What a lovely non local that felt like a local. Beer on point. G n T on point. Pigeon in the hanging basket was an added cute factor. Just go & see what you think.

Lovely little bar for those who enjoy tasting a variety of beers. I will definitely call again when in Harrogate.

Great selection of real ale from across the UK. All the beers are well looked after and are in fantastic condition.

The place is a haven. The atmosphere is ideal. Like stepping back in time. The service is great with a sincere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and owners. The ales, porters, stouts etc are are the best quality. The whisky board has a great selection as are the excellent wines. A real gem.

Only in here for beer. Excellent 👍

Well known bar in Harrogate, beer great.

Nice beers in a nice environment

Lovely local place to meet and have a drink. Good buzz and busy vibe. Nice to have the option of gluten free beers - thanks so much 👍

First visit after recommendation. Great beer at reasonable prices. Barman friendly and helpful. Like what they have done to the place. Dog friendly even though ours weren't with us. Parking on meters or plenty of muti story.

Super friendly tap rooms in the centre of Harrogate. Great front and back courtyards and cosy inside area. Large variety of beers on tap with other drinks available too. Thoroughly recommend for beer lovers, looks like it’s been in the Good Beer Guide for many years in a row!

Nice little pub, heavy on the wood. Nice selection of ales, both cask and keg. Decent beer fridge too. Beers well kept.

Excellent find for lovers of craft brews,staff even pour straight from the barrel if that's you preference,our group of four were impressed after our days walking,will be back

Love coming here, me and my boyfriend visit with out dog when I'm up to visit and we always we make time to visit the little ale house. One of our favourite pubs in the country and maybe out dogs absolute favourites. We frequently struggle to get a table because it busy but somebody frequently offers up spare chairs. We do actually really enjoy sitting down in the cosy cellar. Beer always great, love their own and trying others. Staff always, always friendly, and so warm and welcoming. I'd be gutted if my boyfriend moves away, if we did I'd have to come back just for the little ale house.

Excellent selection of beers and Ciders, friendly knowledgeable staff and a very welcoming atmosphere, well worth a visit

Fantastic bar and service. Great selection of beers and friendly clientele.

Dare I say it.. the best place for craft beer in Harrogate? 😎

We visited in the afternoon so not buzzing. Beer was good and I'm sure an evening visit would be great.

Tiny pub with seating at ground and cellar level. Busy on a Saturday afternoon. Lots of beers & good atmosphere.

Stunning little micro pub. Beautiful interior, great beers and friendly service. Bosh!

My favourite pub I've been to in a long time! Wonderful friendly team and excellent beer selection. Small and cosy inside and just a lovely relaxing pint.

Without a doubt, the Little Ale House is one of the best venues if you enjoy great beer in a great atmosphere.

Great ale and friendly knowledgeable staff

Perfect selection of beers that is always changing.

Great selection of beers. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. One of the best pubs in Harrogate

Warm, inviting, classy, understated and quite simply has a lovely 'personal' feel, Most places strive for an ambience like this and fall way short. The beautiful touches of this gem of a find are a) no Sky Sports, b) No fruit machines, c) No tacky television & if there was music, it was very understated, so all in all perfection. If it sounds boring, then this really isn't the place you're looking for. This is a wonderful place with a timeless feel, warmth and a place to enjoy wonderful beer and the near forgotten art of conversation... .

Perfect place to enjoy a beer or 4. Great atmosphere, really great ale.

Small but perfectly formed with some lovely ales - but get there early unless you enjoy standing!! It's very popular

The Little Ale House is a quirky pub with a great selection of ales on sale. Busy atmosphere but managed to find a seat in the small back-yard garden.

Good overseas beer choices. Try the blond beer.

Cracking place, plenty of good beer, little bit cosy but able to find a table on a friday afternoon so all good

Fabulous wee place great beer and friendly atmosphere

Been here twice now. Everything I've tried was excellent. There bar keep is super knowledgeable, makes great recommendations and is always happy to let you try a sample. It's also just a lovely little pub. It was full in my last visit yet not too noisy that I couldn't hear my friends talking (I usually really struggle to hear in noisy places). I just loved the 'speak easy' feel. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend to anyone looking for something that definitely isn't a Spoons.

Love this place. Really, really good beers, friendly and knowledgeable staff, nice atmosphere and a diverse mix of people, at least on the day we went. My only wish is that it was bigger, but then it wouldn’t be called “little” would it? Will be back next time we are in Harrogate.

A good range of craft beers, a quaint bar with lots of atmosphere.

Fantastic home for real ales. A lovely cosy atmosphere built upon the history of the building and the conversations of regular customers. A great selection of interesting ales as well from cask and keg at a good price.

Lovely friendly micro pub. Good Selection of beers.

Great atmosphere and easy to chat to new people

Great selection of ales and some decent whisky too.

Small but vert homely and welcoming

Brilliant place. Intimate, real fire, real ales, fabulous place.

A fantastic pub with a great selection of ales. All the ales are well kept and there's always a fantastic choice. One of the highlights of the Harrogate ale scene

Great little pub, excellent cask and keg beers at reasonable prices.

A cosy pub, with open fires, selling a good selection of real ale. I wish I lived closer.

Superb beer and great atmosphere

Really friendly, great selection of beer and wine and cosy place

Good selection of beers, I've been in smaller bars

Absolute must go, what an incredible place!

Great pub. Great people. Great choice.

Great selection.of cask and keg beer. Best pub in town

Great little boozer, fantastic selection of cask and craft beers, lovely ambiance and really good service. Thoroughly recommended

A great little Beer house, good atmosphere and a lovely log burner to keep you warm.

A great little pub with a great range and a friendly welcome. We'll worth a visit

Lovely intimate spot for a drink. We were there just after sun down and it was candle lit, busy without being overly so. Good selection of beers.

What a wonderful find.. Shhh, don't tell anyone because it's quite a small bar as it's name suggests. It has some outside space to the rear. Really nice atmosphere & friendly staff. Proper hand pull beers & good quality whisky selection. The bar itself is made from a slab of live-edged oak & looks fantastic. Next time I stay over in Harrogate I will return.
