| With so many pubs to choose from in Skipton, we randomly chose the Castle last Thursday as had every other visitor to the town it seemed. We initially sat in the dark and cosy "Study" before being asked to move into the main room as they needed our table for a party of 6. I didn't try the Theakston's Lightfoot, Old Peculier or Timothy Taylor's Landlord; my pint of Theakston's Best cost £4.30 and was in good condition. The roast beef in a Yorkshire pudding may have been home-made but disappointed slightly but the portion size was generous and the overall value was good. paul_d102 - 27 May 2024 14:36 |
| A bit of a tourist trap ,£4 20 for a pint of shandy is somewhat excessive. ALBEERT - 15 Sep 2016 07:43 |
| The Castle is probably the nearest pub to Skipton's castle. But I don't believe the castle itself is visible from here. The interior is sub-divided into different sections and has character. Food is served. But the young waitresses seemed a bit hapless. Ale choice was poor - Caledonian Deuchars IPA, Fullers Quintessential Pale Ale & Banks's Bitter. Old Peculier was off due to some kind of problem with all Theakson ales?? Nice enough pub. But could do with a better beer selection. blue_scrumpy - 27 Jul 2016 20:37 |
| Limited Theakston only beer range, and my mate had a pint of the guest beer that was utterly vile. Nice solid old style Pennine stone building, with benches out front to watch the world go by. Loses a point for that cardinal sin I cannot abide - allowing a bunch of surly locals to line up on stools all along the fairly small bar front, causing me to have to bellow my order over their heads. Get a table! twohalves - 26 Jun 2012 19:45 |
| Theakston's dominates in this pub which seems popular with locals, who give it a good atmosphere. Bit of an unremarkable interior. Nothing to dislike but nothing to rave about. Would be miles better without carpets and soft furnishings. Good service. All pints tried were in good condition although not really to my taste other than the OP Basically an ok boozer and somewhere i'd probably frequent if a local. tarkatherotter - 21 Jun 2012 21:51 |
