Beautiful home cooked traditional English pub food. The liver & bacon was delicious. Cozy atmosphere with little tables, in a traditionally decorated pub as if going back in time. No bells and whistles, just good basic food.
Great food, superb service from everyone, and prices are really affordable. Definitely will come back again. Recommend you try the Chilli con Carne... It was, I mean was, because I even licked the bowl, superb flavour and quality/quantity... If you visit Otley, it's a definite stop.
Can't fault this place! Top quality, tasty, well presented food. Didn't have to wait long either for the food to arrive. Great choice of drinks too. Definitely worth a visit if in the area. Even the tables were cleared and cleaned quickly, by friendly staff.
Lovely location, right in the square where the Market is held on certain days. Good choice of food to choose from, even for me been vegetarian. . Reasonable prices. Friendly staff .. clean toilets (which is always important ) friendly atmosphere, children are allowed. In colder months, nice to sit near the wood burning fire, gives a cosy atmosphere. Space at the side of the pub to sit outside with seating and tables etc. In all, a lovely traditional, old fashioned pub with a lot of character and history .. always go here for a drink or two .. not tried the food yet, but looks very tempting. Definatley worth a visit 😊👍
Me and the wife had a beef and onion ciabatta each and it was lovely. Less than £7 each. Tender beef and nice bread. Couple of pints to wash down. Good selection of beers and a nice courtyard to the rear with plenty of seating. Will come here again in the future.
