| 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 |
| i have just been in the dales on a week off i found the landlord unhelpful and rude to my children.the beer was flat and didn't taste very good at all.we asked for some sandwiches, the landlady was sat having a cigarette at the time letting it drift near our children. she got up and went in to the back where the dog was barking. i only hope that she washed her hands before making our sandwiches.when ordering the landlord seemed to be in a rush to get our money as if we were going to leave without paying for our food. whilst we were there a young man came in asking for help in finding a taxi, he gave him a card and told him where the nearest phonebox was, but did not offer to ring the taxi for him. i would not recommend this pub for food as the sandwiches we had when they came were quite dry and over priced. compared to the rest of the dales this pub is the worst i have been in with my family. anonymous - 20 Mar 2006 23:05 |
