The Bruce Arms in Hambleton

Excellent Sunday lunch. Starters included scallops. Mains included perfectly cooked roasts and delicate fish and the puddings included lemon posset. We will return even if its just for the on tap Guinness .

A food experience..a must go for every foodie out there..But remember to book as we didn't but they did squeeze us in.. and we're so grateful for that .. from starter to desserts each mouthful was a taste sensation. The steak melted in my mouth and the black pudding was best we've ever had.. for me the best part was the heavenly truffle that came with my chocolate Tart let's just say it was a " Harry met Sally " moment lol.. husbands was the chicken butter sauce that came with his duck he wanted a spoon to make sure he got every drop..please help support local pubs visit soon

Fantastic food. Excellent host and service. Brilliant ambiance..I would wholeheartedly recommend The Bruce Arms in West Tanfield.

Came in yesterday just for one drink, several drinks and a meal later we left after a fabulous time. The food was excellent and all the staff are beyond friendly, could not recommend this highly enough

A characterful old coaching inn, with four comfy bedrooms, in a lovely setting. Really good beer, wines and cocktails, and high quality restaurant food, from very friendly and attentive hosts and their team

Super nights stay in this lovely coaching house. We were booked in for 2 nights but had to leave after 1 for a family emergency. Very friendly hosts and staff. Super comfy bed and nice little touches such as fresh flowers and fresh milk. Good shower.Absolutely fabulous evening meal and breakfast.Would certainly recommend.

Warm, friendly and happy. Can't fault the landlord, he was amazing. Really friendly locals. Made the visit! To top it off, had a nice and cozy sofa in front of the fire!! Only intended for a quick drink, stayed there all night. Even gave us snacks from the food menu, when we only had drinks. A* service, definitely worth a visit!!

Highly rate The Bruce Arms, Matt, Philippa and the staff are amazing. Friendly welcome, very comfortable atmosphere. The room and amenities were great, loved the duvet, pillows and the freshly ground coffee.I cannot say enough about the food, both dinner and breakfast were excellent, well presented, enough of it and definitely compliments to the chef. The garlic bread was the best and well worth a try. Good selection of drinks available and not all the common ones you find everywhere either. Overall a very pleasent and relaxing two night stay.

An absolute gem of a place. Matt and his team are so welcoming - the service is great and the food is absolutely delicious. The Sunday roast is incredible - and they have an Amazing gin cocktail list to choose from too! Highly recommend

Pleased we came across The Bruce Arms. We were staying just outside the village for a weekend away and decided to pop in for a couple of beers after a walk. Ended up booking Sunday lunch. Great food, great beer and great service from a family run business - a refreshing change from the faceless chain pubs that seem to have appeared everywhere. Would return when we are back in the area.
