The World's End is a historic riverside pub at 65 Bond End, Knaresborough (HG5 9AU) — note the venue sits in Knaresborough, not central Harrogate, despite the Harrogate city slug. Steeped in character, it pairs perfectly poured pints with hearty, freshly prepared food (stone-baked pizzas and burgers Friday to Sunday plus classic pub grub) and a large, south-facing tiered outdoor area overlooking the river. For performers the weekly fixture is the open mic / live music every Sunday from 6:30pm, showcasing local talent in a relaxed setting with a PA. A welcoming, scenic grassroots spot for acoustic and local acts.
