Food was excellent and staff were friendly and professional. Fantastic
Absolutely fabulous from beginning to end. Everything was cooked perfectly and the staff were attentive without being intrusive.
Not been for over 20 years to this great Harrogate institution and it was fantastic! Exquisite fish dishes and wine list, with great service made it feel very special.
Eating out at "The Drum" is always a great pleasure
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.
First time back for many years but well worth it. Fabulous food and very attentive management and staff
excellent as usual. it's not broken so don't fix it.
Waitress wasn’t very interactive Food was ok but not great Lacked a bit of atmosphere
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!
I loved it. As usual the food and service was excellent.
Excellent visit, friendly staff, enjoyed a joke or two. Thank you for a lovely time.
Excellent food. Friendly staff. would definitely go again when here.
Food lovely, service good, lacking in atmosphere, very quiet, felt more like a library than a restaurant
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!
Fabulous ( again). Great service, fantastic food, overall a perfect evening. 5 stars. 😁
The fish (tuna and monkfish) was a bit dry,although the sauces were nice
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.
Went for the fresh tasty seafood and not disappointed! A feast of prawns, crab, scallops and an oyster in lovely warm garlic butter. Delicious!
Impeccable service and attention to detail. Excellent food - the lemon sole was divine.
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.
So much choice of delicious fish dishes and very good service.
Second visit to drum and monkey, first time was excellent, second time was even better! Cosy semi formal setting but with a really easy going friendly atmosphere. Good choice of wines and food fantastic.
The food was really tasty and the service was great
Amazing food, felt the staff could be little warmer attitude
Very good nice night met all expectations, will visit again
Lovely food, great service, all round wonderful night.... if a touch on the expensive side
Old fashioned, slightly odd little place. Average age of diner 60+. Service good and food nice but straight out of the 1970s.
Dinning great, service excellent, atmosphere low to medium could do with some basic backing music for early dinners
We thoroughly enjoyed both the food and the service. It was excellent value for money.
Always good food and pleasant atmosphere at The Drum and Monkey.
Very friendly service ,my friend and I enjoyed our 2 course meal. The fish dishes were delicious.
Excellent service and the food was of the highest standard.
Food and service were excellent , would definitely recommend and would visit again
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.
Good food and great service. Already looking forward to our next visit.
Our first visit. Loved everything about it and will return in the future. Staff very pleasant and welcoming.
Not very good at all. Sorry won't be going back.
Wonderful evening- the staff, the ambiance, the menu and the food all excellent. Can't wait to come again!
