A well-known Harrogate pub is reopening this weekend a month after it closed for a major refurbishment.
When the Pine Marten, on Otley Road near RHS Harlow Carr, closed its doors in September it had a classic country pub look but it now has a much more modern, glamorous feel.
The pub has introduced a revamped menu inspired from ideas across the globe.
Head Chef Tim Chapman, who has been with the pub for six years, still oversees the food, which now also includes a dedicated vegan menu.
Some customer favourite features, like the three open fireplaces, have been retained but the whole venue has been transformed from top to bottom.
The Pine Marten building dates back to the 1820s when it was the original home of Robert Wigglesworth, who created the world’s largest telescope at the time.

General manager Richard Tate, who has over 30 years’ experience in the hospitality sector, said:
“I’m delighted with the makeover at the Pine Marten – we’ve retained customer favourite features while revamping the entire place, and it looks absolutely stunning.
“This marks a new chapter for the Pine Marten – my fantastic team and I can’t wait to see guests coming through the doors!”
