The Old Oak Tree in Hambleton

We visited the pub with family there was 8 of us, no problems with large parties. Service was good & plenty of choice, with special boards, light bites & main menu, desserts are to dies for.

Went for dinner, very friendly staff and top notch food. Our Labrador loved it as well 🦮 Nice little pub, highly recommended.

We had a beautiful meal. Would highly recommend. Staff were absolutely lovely and attentive, couldn't do enough for you. We were very impressed with the food, and the atmosphere was lovely.

We really enjoyed our lunch. The steak and ale pie was beautifully cooked and it was served on the plate which was a bonus, very good size portions. The staff were friendly.

Stayed in one of the rooms last night after a nearby wedding. We arrived very early to check in before the wedding and the staff could not have been more helpful - letting us use a room to get ready after travelling, giving us complimentary coffee and ringing to arrange a taxi. Room was clean, warm and comfortable with all necessary facilities (although the bed was too firm for me!); breakfast was tasty and plentiful.

Fantastic stay we certainly got more tan we expected, we ate in the bar on the night dinner was absolutely beautiful breakfast again was absolutely beautiful. All staff went above and beyond and we will definitely be back. Thank you. Paul & Jaimie Terry

A wonderful evening celebrating my sons 30th. The service was excellent, especially as there was 30 of us. Food piping hot and amazing as usual.

I attended a motor rally championship awards night here. I had booked direct with the owners and upon arriving was given the keys to a lodge adjacent the large car park. The lodge was one 4 built rather like a stable block. The door opened into a large bedroom complete with writing table chain, a settee complete with coffee table . Decent size tv with all the channels. A built in wardrobe in the corner split in two with hanging space to the left with a fridge beneath with milk and water. To the left a kettle, coffee tea biscuits . A decent size bathroom with plenty of hot water and lots of shampoo and shower gel. Ni e venetian blind. Altogether, a great room . Going across to the prize giving a nice compactor area lots of seating for meals Our awards area was a room further down the restraunt where we had a lovely 3 coarse meal. The food I could not fault and along with the great staff made the night memorable. I would certainly stay her again if I was in the area.

Was booked with a large group in the back restaurant. Welcome was very good as was the service. Nice pint of hand pulled Viking bitter was a great start. Excellent food which was served quickly and hot. Plenty to eat! Probably shouldn’t have ordered the sticky toffee pudding as I was full!! Stayed overnight in a big comfortable bed in an en-suite room. Need to find an excuse to go back.

Was treated to Christmas Day lunch by some friends excellent food.attentive service hand made truffle’s.can I buy a lorry load.mouthwatering.

We visited on an exceptionally busy Tuesday night for our staff Christmas party. Every aspect of our visit was spot on. The staff were friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and efficient. The food was superb quality, plentiful and tasty…..proper pub food! The beer was on par too. A massive thank you to all involved!

First visit, excellent menu and choice, enjoyed a excellent lunch, served by friendly staff. Will spread the word to friends to try, and will be back

We popped in for Sunday lunch, we hadn't booked & the staff were lovely squeezed my husband & I in straight away! We had a lovely Sunday lunch my husband had pork I had beef with veg,, lovely friendly service didn't wait long at all would definitely reccomend!

This is a traditional 'country pub' serving all the standard things you'd expect in this type of setting.There are a few key selling points that I think really make The Old Oak Tree a lovely destination. In terms of decoration and accessibility, there is a car park, and the restaurant itself is designed in the normal pub layout within the UK, however does have some outdoor space for summers and a lighter section at the back for a more ambient experience.Secondly the desserts - while in my opinion the main courses are typical of British pub food (the vegetarian ones I've tried at least), the desserts on offer are absolutely incredible, and gigantic portions! The final factor are the staff - the reason that I've visited this venue so often is that it was a firm favourite of my grandparents, particularly when they'd been out shopping or for appointments in the area. One of the staff there Joe, was so incredibly kind to them, establishing a meaningful relationship and showing genuine concern over their wellbeing when they hadn't been in for a while.

Delicious food and spot on service from all. We ordered home made lasagne and fish pie - perfect!

Stayed here as a cheap room while travelling south and was really impressed for the money! Room was massive, there was a fridge in the room, kettle with hot chocolate sachets and biscuits, good wifi. The rooms are in a separate building from the inn. Only hiccup was I arrived before 5pm and there was no one there and no one to answer the number taped to the door. Had to sit in my freezing car then got into the room. Really surprised how good it was for the money.

Tried to find a venue for lunch to discuss some business things on a Monday. This looked great position and good reviews. Was not disappointed. Great welcome, offered a drink and choice of tables, we wanted a little privacy and were sorted quickly. Chose from the sandwich menu, I had the ham, my colleague chose the halloumi. Both accompanied with lovely salad and nicely done chips. Service was spot on, decor was very smart with Mouseman tables throughout - very impressive ! Will definitely use again and will visit in the evening next time.

We went for sunday lunch, so good everything was like homemade and very good portions. The staff were excellent would reccomend.

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.

Stopped overnight in our Campervan and enjoyed a superb evening meal. Great service, delicious food and a peaceful night. We’ll definitely be back.

Friendly staff, brilliant polite and quick service, with fantastic food! Highly recommend

Lovely food but it seems they cant wait to get you gone so they can get ready for the next day .

Absolutely fantastic food with an excellent menu selection. Portion size of meals very generous. Price range of meals good. Staff welcoming and efficient. Would highly recommend.

Oh my days, stumbled upon this pub looking for a meal and it did not disappoint. Menu was amazing, and the quality of food was just as excellent. So good we went twice in a week. The staff are extremely polite and efficient, what a well run team. Please do not hesitate in trying the food here. Highly recommended. Dog friendly too

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.

Staff absolutely lovely nothing to much trouble

Took friends and staff treated them so nice, dog friendly and food was fantast

Had a lovely meal. Food was delicious and good value for money

The food (dinner and breakfast), accommodation, service and ambience were all of the highest order. This was my first time at The Old Oak Tree, but it certainly won't be my last - I was here for the racing, but this was the biggest winner of my visit!

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

Food was fabulous and there was plenty to choose from for me as I’m coeliac. Service was great.

Still a good place to eat friendly atmosphere very good food 👌.

Whilst staying at Tanfield Barn (next door to pub), we went to eat at the Old Oak Tree. Staff and patrons were so friendly, and the service was great. A wide and varied menu. The food was excellent.

Great takeaway service brilliant. X excellent food and service x

Excellent meal & service. Friendly informative staff. Highly recommended.

What a fantastic place this is,superb staff amazing food,stayed in my campervan,can't fault anything it was just brilliant 12 out of 10!!!

very nice location just minutes of the a168, friendly staff

We only popped in on the off chance for a meal as we were passing, we were going to go to witherspoons but thought we would treat our selfs,, I got the beef curry and my wife got the crab salad, both meals were delicious with a pint each came to £38 would definitely recommend we will return.

This pub is one of the best places for food in the Thirsk area. Excellent menu well cooked and very good service. If you want a great place to go for a casual meal or a celebration it would hard to find a better place.

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!

Didn't stay in the rooms. Friendly and polite service. Not a fast service but don't let that put you off. The place was heaving, so let that be an indication of the food quality.

Excellent food at moderate price.

Food was lovely and reasonably priced, dog friendly restaurant/bar, staff friendly and helpful would recommend if in the area ,we will definitely be back

Great stop over.would recommended to anyone. Very relaxed atmosphere with a good staff , stayed overnight in our campervan. Made very welcome. 3rd visit, consistent good service

Food was amazing such an extensive menu was hard to choose so will definitely be going back it is dog friendly too

Food very basic. Rooms clean. Staff need some training in ‘customer care’. The ‘owners’ attitude left a lot to be desired.

Had Amazing meals and desserts definitely on our go again lists Thank you

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.

Great room, breakfast very nice. Had tea one night which was also very good and we were stuffed afterwards. It's about a mile walk into Thirsk which takes about 20 to 30 minutes depending on how fast the dog wants to walk...lol

Met friends here for lunch today. Excellent selection of food on menu, hard to choose. Attentive friendly service, delicious food, good value for money. Large carpark.

Sunday lunch was excellent will be back

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.

The food that came out was nice enough even if there were 3 portions of Chips for 5 meal but honestly the staff should be ashamed. Rude, disinterested and slow

Booked ahead as coming down from Scotland to stay at Hillside caravan park, I could have had everything on the menu but I was there for the Sunday roast and it did not disappoint, if only we had this standard where I live I’d be here every weekend if I could. 10/10

Fantastic location and is within easy walking distance of Thirsk. Great food place with plenty of specials to choose from. Will certainly be back.

Went for lunch, lovely food, large portions and pleasant staff

Called in after a lovely walk. Great food at a fair price, with good service. We'll worth a visit. Also, plenty of parking

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.

We stayed in our Campervan for 2 nights, we ate on both occasions, the food was absolutely amazing and delicious, everything was very well seasoned, the portion sizes were ample (stating it modestly). Love and friendly landlord and staff, and the service was always attentive and prompt. Congratulations leading the way in food and hospitality. Thank you Paul &Lyn

Booked a short stay here a couple weeks back for a sheering course at a local farm. The owners and staff were extremely friendly and happy to help. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were absolutely smashing. Will hopefully get a chance to stay again. Lovely place. 👌

Good pub Good food there's a lot to like in the old oak a larger selection of ales would make it even better but still well worth a visit

Waiting staff seemed uninterested. When food arrived there was only a few chips for both of us and was told that was the correct amount

We go to the Old Oak Tree on a regular basis the food is first class always made welcome staff very efficient and friendly would recommend a visit you won't be disappointed.

Service outstanding, warm reception, relaxing atmosphere. Clean throughout. What's not to like.

Absolutely fantastic Stayed for one night on a business trip Rooms are brilliant clean fresh Food was gorgeous 😍 So fresh and huge porcens The staff were really friendly and attentive All in all I can't fault anything I will definitely stay again

Brilliant service here. Food was top notch and great prices. Always visit when I am in the area

Best Sunday lunch in Thirsk, meat, yorkshires, mash, roast potatoes, cauli cheese, veg and a gravy boat per person - kitchen also bakes great puddings like real banoffee pie and bakewell tart.

A bit on the pricey side but really good food

Great menu choices and good service

We love this place. Great food, great value and great staff. Never had a bad experience here. Thanks guys.

Lovely food and staff - dog friendly, welcoming and great service! Nice variety of food for a Sunday too

U3A lunch club and food excellent. Service really great and staff really went out of their way to accommodate a big party of approx 22 people. Well done

Food was delicious , lots of choice too. Good value for money The staff were faultless, helpful , friendly and really on the ball

Just had a great meal in the pub. A large choice of meals to choose from, great portions, very tasty and good value.

Lovely meal at the Old Oak Tree to celebrate my birthday today. Always gorgeous food and friendly service. Thank you!

Went for a meal December. Staff and service excellent. Came away though not feeling it was value for money unfortunately. Had pie and chips - pie didn’t have a base or sides so not a pie by my reckoning and menu stated ‘with chips or mash and vegetables’ but according to staff that no longer applied so had ‘pie’ and chips and no veg for thick end of £16.

We are locals, new to area, had a lovely Sunday lunch, so went back 22nd December, Omg! What a difference! Young man at bar very pleasant, then left with two young girls, one which was completely spaced out, and other just not there! At least spaced out one took our order . Food completely disappointing, Didn't recieve full order, Over priced for what we did get! Supposed to be special occasion and just took the p __! Won't be back

Food was good but no access for disabled toilets which was highly disappointing

Leuk hotel, kamers iets gedateerd maar schoon en netjes, eten hier is een aanrader het restaurant is namelijk zeer goed. Een leuke en gezellige bar is er ook. Personeel en eigenaren zijn supervriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Warm and friendly family run with great home cooked food

Booked for a Christmas 🎄 dinner with my 89 year old mum..Drove up from Leeds.. Sat us at a table with low chairs in the bar area, spoke to them 3 different times on the phone regarding the Christmas Dinner menu, only to get there and wasn't booked for the Christmas menu ..Disappointed was a understatement

Really great place to stay. Large car park. The accommodation is a separate building to the pub. Quiet. Breakfast huge and excellent. Would recommend.

A lovely old pub, great beer, great food and lovely service. Room was clean and well decorated. Highly recommend and will be visiting again

Excellent Sunday lunch and great service. Good value for money

We always stay here with the dog when visiting family. Rooms are ideal for what we need with a big dog and you can't go wrong with the breakfast

Absolutely fantastic place to stay. This was our 3rd visit and certainly won’t be our last. Food is Beautiful, rooms are clean, comfy and spacious. The staff here are just so friendly and welcoming. I would recommend to anyone.

3 of us went for lunch. As a vegan I'm always a bit worried about my choices. Although there was little choice, what I had, a Thai curry was lovely and tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful and I will return at some point. All I ask for is more choice.

Never fails in service or food . The staff are always good the meals were hot. We would recommend this place to any body.

Excellent quality food - friendly staff !

Excellent meal with great service at reasonable cost Dog friendly too

Met up with old friends for a mid week evening meal whilst away on holiday with our dog. Staff were wonderful , looked after us and the dog ! Food was great , never tried a "Parmo" before and it didn't disappoint.

The room was fab the breakfast was so nice and the staff were so friendly and so helpful definitely recommend. We were at a wedding down the road, if I knew how nice this was I would have stayed longer

A good pub with rooms. Lovely outside seating area. Standard pub grub menu though with some additions like partridge. Chips were disappointing. A small mistake was very quickly and efficiently dealt with. Space at the rear for campervan stopovers, it is best to book ahead though.

Went for a birthday meal. Excellent food and very friendly service. Chicken with Wensledale cheese and bacon was really well cooked and delicious. Thank you, Old Oak Tree.

We stopped here for dinner and drinks, the crew here couldn't have been more accommodating, a vast and varied menu with a special board too. Definitely worth a visit

I want to rate the rooms four and half but couldn't & that's only because the bathroom door wasn't the easiest doors to close + the sealant around the shower screen could do with renewing but that's just being picky. Luv this place the food is amazing the staff are amazing will definitely be staying here again, keep up the good work team Oak 👏👏😍

Stayed 3 nights warm welcome on arrival great room.dog friendly fantastic staff nothing too much trouble. Excellent breakfast and evening meal. Would highly recommend. This is our second visit and won't be our last. Thanks for an enjoyable stay.

Spent 3 Nights staying at the Old Oak Tree. Absolutely 1st class. Food excellent, accommodation first class and clean and tidy and staff couldn’t do enough for us. Would thoroughly recommend.

2nd time we have eaten here and will definitely be back its Amazing, great food great service.. Happy customers!!
