You won't recognise this pub from the early comments. Ownership/management has changed in recent months and breathed life into this place. A very popular and subsequently busy pub so it is advisable to book if you want to eat. (Great Sunday roasts!) Staff plentiful, very accomodating and friendly. They will do their utmost to fit you in to eat if you haven't a booking. a selection of good local ales are on offer from a relatively small bar so you have to be a little patient when it comes to getting served. Generally a nice place with a pleasant atmosphere. Try it out. judge_and_brewery - 13 Feb 2012 15:24 |
New landlord has made a great difference to this pub. Now 4 real ales available. The standard range of Smith Cask, Black Sheep Bitter and Theakston Best but also one guest which was Rudgate Ruby Mild on last visit. Pity more local micros not on offer. Now open all day and letting rooms available. Travel to Redmire on the Wensleydale Railway, walk down to the pub, have lunch and catch the next train back. Rocky53 - 10 Nov 2011 10:17 |
I think this pub has new owners since a lot of previous comment. We turned up last Saturday evening as a party of 7 including and 8 year old and were made very welcome. Despite the pub being full, mainly with people eating, the landlady assured us she would find a table for us, which she did. We ran a tab from the start and enjoyed the Guinness and very good food, especially the fish and chips and the steak pie which was brill. Make a point of paying this pub a visit the owners deserve your support, but maybe book if your a large party and want to eat. mikey1973 - 31 May 2011 19:54 |
I find it hard to recognise the pub from the existing comments. We stayed in a cottage in the village and visited the pub on a couple of occasions, including Sunday lunch. I found the landlord to be very friendly and helpful, the first time I went in I was on my own and we had a 15 minute chat about the surrounding area. If people found him unfriendly then I can only say that it takes 2 to strike up a relationship.... The Sunday lunch was possibly the best pub lunch I've ever had, and I've had quite a few! But don't expect an extensive menu, the mains are limited to roast beef, pork or lamb, coming in 3 sizes and all very reasonably priced. One of our party was vegetarian and upon request they were able to offer something suitable which was reported to be very good. Excellent Black Sheep Beer, I didn't try the John Smiths. Pub is very comfortable, restaurant service was good, and children were made welcome. I woudn't hesitate to go back. I wonder if other reviewers are expecting the facilities that might be available in a london restaurant rather than what it is, a traditional Dales pub. Render - 1 May 2008 16:52 |
I went to this pub in early December 2005. I too found the landlord offhand. There was a large board outside offering Sunday lunch. When I went to the bar to order he asked me if i had booked! If you have to book why advertise to the public!! Personally I thought the guy a jerk... In the end he 'graciously' allowed me to order lunch. That said, the Sunday roastlunch was probably one of the best I have ever had....and it was generous!! Pity the landlords attitude did'nt match the quality of the food.. I would give the pub 9/10 for the food but the hospitality drags it down to 3. ggwillym - 5 Feb 2007 17:25 |
