Plenty of these pubs have featured in the 2023 CAMRA Good Beer Guide.
The annual guide, now in its 50th edition, released by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) is on sale today.
It highlights venues selected by its members "as places to savour good beers from small breweries as well as cask-conditioned lagers and world beers and some pubs are highlighted for serving real ciders too".
Here are nine of the North Yorkshire bars that feature in the 50th edition of the guide and what CAMRA said about each of them.
9. Tan Hill Inn, Richmond
CAMRA experts said: "Britain's highest inn, at 1732 feet above sea level, is famed for its isolated and exposed setting at a high point on the Pennine Way. With character in abundance, the low-beamed, stone-floored bar is warmed for much of the year by the fire in a heavy stone fireplace. B&B and bunkhouse accommodation are available and motorhomes are welcome provided drivers make a small donation to charity. The pub is licensed for weddings, hosts stargazing nights in outdoor domes and features frequent live music." Photo: Tony Johnson
