Harrogate Tap named as one of best places to hop off the train for a pint A popular Harrogate pub has been named on a list of the best places to ‘hop off the train for a pint.’ Train operator Northern is celebrating ‘National Cask Ale Week’ by raising a glass to the best pubs on its network. And named on the list is Harrogate Tap and Track and Sleeper in Knaresborough. Seven pubs across the region made the list created by Northern, which serves more than 500 stations across the North of England. Speaking about Harrogate Tap, a Northern spokesperson said:

“You’ll be spoilt for choice at The Tap, which boasts an extensive selection of beer with 12 traditional cask hand-pulls and 15 more modern kegs. “Not to mention bottles and cans from microbreweries and larger, more established breweries the world over. “The premises are located within the only remaining part of the original 1862 train station building and make for an amazing atmosphere.”
