We will tailor your party to your needs, so please call us to discuss menu and music options.
  • Entertainment: Few establishments can boast a couple of in-house professional Opera soloists but, in Anna & D'Arcy, that is precisely what The Malt Shovel has. Happy to sing the odd aria or two, or to play the piano during your evening meal, the Bleikers talented owners provide a unique atmosphere.
    In addition to the piano and singing, on Sunday lunchtime they often play host to wonderful, local jazz artists and this is an extremely popular event with both locals and diners from further afield.

A word from The Malt Shovel
The Malt Shovel, Brearton, is an award-winning 16th Century Country Inn, less than 10 minutes from the centre of Harrogate and signposted off the A61. With ancient oak beams, big leather chairs, flag stone floors and wonderful open fires, this characterful family-run country pub has been recognised as a "top scorer" in the Harden's Restaurant Guide 2010. Owned by D'Arcy, Jürg, Jane and Anna Bleiker since 2006, The Malt Shovel has gained a wonderful local reputation for offering excellent food, friendly service and the warmest of welcomes. The menu is not like that of numerous franchises. It comes from individual passion where all dishes are made from scratch using the finest local ingredients and the great food and unique atmosphere make this Inn well worth seeking out. Imbued with all the personal touches you would expect from a family-run affair, it is an establishment which goes that extra mile to ensure their customers leave knowing that they have discovered a little gem.Continued
