| A welcome sight after a surprisingly hilly sustrans cycle route, we stayed the night and sampled good pints of Wharf Bank Cam Fell, Copper Dragon 1816 and Daleside Bitter. There is a pleasant seating area by the road outside (Danby is very quiet) and a three room bar. The only odd thing was that, at least on the night we visited, the kitchen wasn't able to cope with more than half a dozen tables ordering food over a 90 minute period (there was no chance of us eating earlier than 8:30pm) and whilst of good quality, the food was quite ordinary. (A good breakfast the next morning cooked on a more normal schedule.) drtimthornton - 31 Aug 2010 10:45 |
| A handsome and fine pub for drinking, dining or overnighting: no gimmicks, piped music or fruit machines - just good food (much of it home-cooked), good beer, a good wine list, real fires, a mature, pleasant staff and village young men who are not louts but nice chaps who play cricket for their club. (Sadly) what a rarity! Highly recommended for those who like their pubs traditional, simple and good -and from the meal and accommodation boookings register, clearly appreciated by those who care about these things. strongarm - 27 Jul 2009 11:52 |
| What a gem. We stayed overnight at the pub - the food was excellent,the staff were fiendly and the three bitters were all in good condition. Given this, we were surprised it wasn't busier - only about half a dozen stalwarts at the bar by closing time. I would definitely go back. turbohorsebox - 25 Sep 2008 12:57 |
