The Yew Tree Inn

We booked for the carvery today. When we first walked in it was extremely busy but as we’d booked just found our table with our name on it and sat down. We had booked for six people but due to last minute work commitments only 4 of us went, which was lucky as there’s no way 6 of us could have squeezed on that tiny table! We then went to the bar for drinks and had to ask the staff how the carvery worked, as it is quite a small set up you wait for the chef to come and tell your table when it’s your turn to go up. 45 minutes later we went up to the bar to ask if we’d been forgotten about and then an hour later we went up to get our food. We noticed on the table it did say it was booked for another family an hour and a half after our booking! The meat on the carvery was lovely and a generous cut, Yorkshires were nice but all the veg had clearly been rushed and wasn’t cooked properly with broccoli and carrots all being rock hard. Ten minutes prior to our hour and a half being up we were told by staff that the next family for the table had arrived, thankfully we had finished eating but no time for dessert! Staff were all rushed off their feet clearly and not good at communicating with each other as one table sat down still with the previous family’s plates all piled up and this wasn’t cleared for over 15 minutes! Definitely needs more staff and better organisation! Probably won’t be going back

Called in by chance on a day out to Otley. Very pleasant bar lady and food served in acceptable time. By luck we visited on Thursday when they offer a choice of hot meals for £4.50 to senior citizens. Really don't know how they do them for that price. Possibly a bit light on the fish and meat but really enjoyed the meal and would not complain.

Not local to the area so first time visiting the Yew Tree. This is one of those places you find that you never forget. The carvery was exceptional and everything was cooked perfectly. Doggy carvery was £1.50 which is an absolute steal. It consisted of different meats (cut up) and veg of your choice. Our desserts were delicious and well presented. Looking forward to returning and trying different ones on the menu. This was topped with great service which was welcoming and warm. Very glad we decided on the Yew Tree for lunch.

Absolutely gorgeous carvery here on Sundays! The just-roasted meats are accompanied by a fantastic selection of vegetables, trimmings and sauces, and the staff are super-friendly and attentive. Even more excitingly for my dog, they do a Doggy Carvery here! She got her own bowl of meat trimmings and vegetables (and lots of petting). She's now got a firm favourite place for Sunday Lunch!

Absolutely amazing couldn't fault any of it. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming and helped me when I had my hands full with my puppy. The food was reasonably priced and they have a decently sized car park. Best part was the food - carvery was very tasty and they even did a "doggy carvery" for which they provide a bowl so 10/10 from me and my pup!
