The South Lodge

You'll find The South Lodge tucked away on Harrogate Road, the kind of place locals actually pop into rather than somewhere you'd stumble upon by accident. It's got that comfortable, lived-in feel where you can nurse a pint without anyone making a fuss, but they've clearly put thought into what they're doing—the food side of things is taken seriously, and the drinks list goes beyond the usual suspects. It's the pub you want when you can't be bothered with the fancier spots in town but don't want to compromise on quality.
