Reopening date revealed for The Tiger Inn near Knaresborough

Thursday, 16 January 2025 06:48

The Tiger Inn will reopen under new ownership later this month.

A much-loved pub near Knaresborough is set to reopen later this month.

Under the new ownership of Mark and Clare Oglesby from Goldsborough Hall, the historic 19th-century pub has undergone a complete kitchen refit.

And the new owners have revealed it will re-open its doors at 4pm on Friday 31st January, welcoming patrons old and new.

Owner, Mark Oglesby, said:

“We’re committed to keeping The Tiger true to its roots.

“It had a stellar reputation throughout Yorkshire before a tragic kitchen fire caused it to close over a year ago, so we’re excited to bring back much of what made it special.”

Mark added:

“The new business is headed up by our operations director Neil Doogan, while the previous manager Heidi and head chef Tom are also returning.

“As the pub is situated on the famous Knaresborough Round walk, the only changes we’re making are to be more welcoming to walkers and dog owners, creating an enclosed beer garden in the spring to make a more secure and enjoyable outside space for all.

“And we plan to create a small function room that can be used for small groups, kids parties and village events.”

The Tiger Inn has long been celebrated as a destination pub, offering “proper food at proper prices.”

The new owners are dedicated to continuing that tradition, keeping as much of the original menus as possible whilst championing Yorkshire produce and hospitality.

For more information on the reopening, contact Neil Doogan neil@tiger-inn.co.uk
