| Good village pub, friendly, straightforward and not touristic or over-traditional. Good range of ales (Tetley, Deuchars, Timothy Taylors, plus another local Yorkshire brewery that I can't remember) at sensible prices (around £3.10). Simple, home made food, healthy portions and good prices. Recommended if you're in the area on walks or visiting the steam railway. JonRambo - 7 Aug 2017 12:28 |
| Very good pub. Always a good selection of real ales on and a nice friendly atmosphere. Used to frequent when I lived in Embsay. wooly2708 - 23 Aug 2010 20:53 |
| I�m not qualified to follow in the sainted footsteps of the great tony_pachus, so I�ll confine myself to humble prose.I often find that going into an unfamiliar village centre pub brings on a case of front room syndrome: stares from the regulars, and gruffness from behind the bar. Fortunately, my fears were allayed when our large and excitable family group tumbled in, bearing the first snows of autumn with us. A pleasant dales stone building, a blazing fire in the hearth, and plenty of space.We were there at lunch, and found the food to be reasonably priced, generously served and good quality. Several of us had a beef stir fry-could have been a bit more spicy, but that�s a minor niggle. My pie eating apprentice was complimentary about his:certainly it appeared to have all the qualities of perfection. I�ve been coming to North Yorkshire for several years now, and have never managed to try any Copper Dragon Ales:other posters on these boards rave about them. Thanks to close study of BITE and the GBG, I determined that this pub stocked them. Golden Pippin, the CD beer that springs to mind wasn�t available, but that lack was more than made up by CD�s Scotts 1816. I found this to be complex, with a depth of flavour often lacking in some more widely available Yorkshire beers.An added bonus for me was the pump dispensing No Eyed Deer from Goose Eye. The barman said it was popular, but some found it too bitter.Indeed, the bitterness was perhaps only second in intensity to some Hepworth�s Prospect that I drank a couple of months ago. No Eyed Deer was my beer of the festival back in Kent : it lived up to its reputation on its home turf.Unfortunately, my father in law�s Bombardier was not at its best. Not sure if dogs are welcome, but even if they weren�t, I�d still like this pub.7/10 wittenden - 11 Nov 2008 23:51 |
