About The Bruce Arms

Free on-site parking is a rare find on a town-centre street, and it's one of the first things worth knowing about The Bruce Arms in Ripon. Set on Main Street, this is a straightforward pub-hotel offering en-suite rooms above a working bar and restaurant, with a garden and outdoor seating for warmer evenings.

Rooms come with drinks available and free WiFi, and breakfast is served each morning to set guests up for the day. The bar and restaurant downstairs double as the social hub, with a 24 hour reception on hand for arrivals at any time. Pets are welcome, making this a practical stop for those travelling with a dog.

Fishing is available nearby for anyone wanting to spend a few hours by the water, and the surrounding streets offer further pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach.
