We came across Calico Jack’s by chance yesterday, what a superb find. We got a very warm welcome as did our dog Remi. The decor is fabulous and food superb, portion really generous and great value. Waitress Sammy was absolutely lovely and could not have been more helpful, in fact all the staff were great. We will definitely be returning soon.
We had a lovely family meal here for our daughters birthday, the service was spot on, always checking if we needed any more drinks but not too over powering. There is s great choice of food to please everyone and a fab kids menu too. Prices are really reasonable. There is also a great little kids play area if they get a bit bored.
We always pay a visit when we visit Skipton every year. Food was delicious again. No Mediterranean chicken so opted for pollo peppercorn chicken. Delicious and tasty full of flavour. The steak fajitas were delicious too, loads of steak, onions and peppers. Give this place a try if you haven’t been yourself won’t be disappointed. July (17.7.25)
Great food, served in a timely manner, but HUGE portions!! I made the mistake of ordering a starter and then couldn't manage my main! To be fair, when I was placing the order, the server did ask "if I was really hungry"!! Whilst I couldn't fault the food or the service, I'd be wary that multiple courses are probably not advisable (and not required to leave you feeling full). Personally, I'd rather have smaller portions to enable me to have more courses and to try different foods.
Booked a table online for 8pm, was very easy to do. We got to the venue slightly early but were welcomed in and sat down. Staff were quick and attentive, but it was a Thursday and not many tables in at the time we had booked. Food arrived promptly and was delicious. It was very tasty and filling, and I had to take a doggy bag home.
