I went with my daughter on our visit to Harrogate she loves fish but her husband doesn't which was why we booked & went, neither of us were disappointed, we were greeted with a warm welcome, menu had everything you could want, wine menu was perfect for the food, everything freshly cooked & tasted amazing, it is small but as they say 'perfectly formed' I would recommend anybody to go if they are visiting Harrogate.

Great food & service. Experience overall reduced a little as the neighbouring table of 3 were very loud which at times meant we couldn't hear our own conversations!

Last time it was excellent, but this time we were a bit disappointed as the Dover sole we had were not fresh and they should not have served it .

Friday lunch at the Drum - a perfect way to start the bank holiday weekend. Food was first class and David, our waiter, was simply fantastic. Fish soup, Mackerel, Lobster thermidor and Trout were perfect. We will be going back!

We had an early meal because we were attending a conference at the Conference Centre. We had been told that we could have a special offer because we were at the Conference Centre. The restaurant knew nothing about this so we didn't get the deal but enjoyed the meal anyway.

I have been to the Drum and Monkey on many occasions over the past 20+ years. Always received the same attentive service by the staff and superb food. The visit was accompanied by beautiful sunny weather which made the experience even better. I have recommended the ‘Drum’ to friends and can report that they enjoy the venue as much as I.

Would have been perfect with a little sauce on the main course. Both my daughter and I had the hake and felt exactly the same.

Lobster, sea trout and John Dory were all delicious. The only negative was the rhubarb crumble which flavour wise was lovely but the topping wasn't very crumbly.
