Took Mum for her birthday treat. We arrived early for our table at 12:30 and it was only us in By 1 o clock it was packed I ordered the mixed grill and Mum ordered the pork fillet stroganoff and both were absolutely amazing Came out in good time, fresh, red hot & presented lovely. There was also a side of homemade chips.

The evening before travelling to Thirsk for lunch at the Old Oak Tree pub, I had to ring three times before finally being answered. Whilst this in another review may have been a negative comment and whilst not ideal from a customer or business perspective, it became apparent after dining there, the reason they are busy is because the food is so good. Normally when eating out, I default to seafood and was going to try the Cod Loin and prawn risotto, a quite complex dish to get right due to the differing cooking times for the individual elements of the dish. However a gentleman near to our table had ordered the Steak and Ale pie and it looked good, so I ordered it myself with a medley of vegetables and baby potatoes. The pie was delicious, the steak within the pie was so tender it was flaking upon pressure from the back of my knife. The pie made me think about the last time I had a pie like this one, it was quite nice to reminisce about this, because it made me think about my grandmother who passed away over thirty years ago. So, best steak and ale pie I have eaten for over 30 years. The service was spot on, not overbearing or fabricated in any way, and there was an offer of more vegetables if I required them. So even though I visited this pub on a Thursday for Lunch it is quite apparent that they were busy for all the reason I have highlighted above, an absolute hidden gem. Dog friendly too.

Godon Ramsey gives good advise, do less well. So many choices and notably the food, salmon and sausages were long before cooked. Gravy was gloop and had a vinegar taste. Spinach was stewed. Vegs were almost right....a portion for 1 shared. Went here because a local said was best around. Well how bad can the rest be Oh belly buttons showing on serving staff isn't a good look but the manner of them was very good

I booked a table for 4 -2 in wheelchairs. Service was attentive , food was decent pub food but when one of our party who uses a wheelchair asked where the disabled toilets were, we were told that they would be built when the pub extension is built!!! Absolutely disgusted! We should have been told on making our booking that there were no facilities for us!

This spot is great for a night out with family and friends or anyone really it has delicious food which is all locally grown with love and care. The staff are all very friendly and are happy to have a chat about the food or anything else. Seating is always comfy whether it's a rainy day and you are inside at the warm fire [in winter], or a sunny afternoon out on the patio. if you are not in a hurry and have nowhere to stay, book a room at the old oak tree and have not only an amazing dinner but also a great room, bed and breakfast. Funny caring and very friendly people serving fantastic food.

We've had meals here several times before and they were always so good, the only thing that stopped me giving 5 stars was the peppercorn sauce on my chicken was far too peppery. I regularly have this kind of sauce and I love spicy food but this sauce completely overpowered the chicken. I had to scrape it off or I wouldn't have been able to eat my meal. I spoke to the staff about it afterwards because they were extremely busy during service and I still enjoyed my meal, just not the sauce. I would still try them again. My husband had the same meal when agreed about the sauce being too peppery.

The Old Oak Tree was an ideal stopping off point between Shetland and the New Forest. Very handy for access from A1 or A19, and minutes from the centre of Thirsk. We were warmly welcomed (like old friends) and were delighted with our accommodation. We decided to dine in the pub, and were mightily impressed by the number of diners and the quality of the food. After a blissful night’s sleep breakfast was a delicious as dinner the evening before. We returned in the evening for our second night, when we were joined by two friends for dinner. There were a few hiccups over ordering welcome drinks for our guests but just minor inconveniences rather than a hassle. Another gorgeous meal and a sleep in slumberland affirmed that in the Old Oak Tree we had discovered a gem of a place to stay! It was a big plus that our dogs were welcomed too. Things I’d improve? If welcoming dogs, perhaps provide an area of the extensive garden were dogs could be safely exercised off lead without risk of them running up to the road.

We have visited a few times now, the Service is excellent, the staff are friendly and welcoming. The Old Oak tree does excellent food and you really get what you pay for. The gammon is huge and when I had it, it was cooked perfectly, have tried chasing this high by ordering gammon at pubs since and haven't found anywhere to match the standard set by this place. There is a Good selection of veg served with meals. They do serve nice beer and you can enjoy it in their large beer garden at the rear of the pub. Can't comment on the accommodation as I haven't stayed here, but it looks appealing.

What a delight! Not many places you can eat "proper " homemade cakes and scones whilst taking in the views of an old-fashioned cobbled stone marketplace. Took me back to my youth. The little egg timer, which indicates the ultimate time to brew your tea, was a lovely surprise. The staff were very welcoming to 2 non Yorkshire oldies. Only 2 disappointments 1. We already had lunch and could only have cake. 2. This was our last day in Thirsk. But.....we will be back
