Reviews in Settle

The food was very nice and the desserts were excellent, the staff were very friendly and the young man who served us was very polite and helpful, there is a great choice of beer and wines to choose from.

The food was delicious ( most of our party had the Beef Wellington) cooked to perfection, my only gripe is that it only comes with one type of vegetable, two would be ideal, without having to order extra veg on the side. The desserts were also delicious ( various choices were made by family) no complaints at all. Service was also very friendly and professional. At the time we ate it was quiet but we were there quite early plenty of tables looked Reserved though. Definitely be back.

Food was very good . Service was good as always. Atmosphere at this pub/hotel is very friendly and professional. Staff know their regulars and treat them with respect and professionalism whilst still letting the customer know that they are a regular. Experience over all is really good *****

Booked for Xmas Eve and ordered from their Festive Menu. My partner is vegetarian and the menu offered great choices. Service was on point, never felt rushed, staff were very friendly without being intrusive. The food was presented very well and cooked perfectly. If visiting the area again I would certainly look at eating here again.

A very warm welcome and great service especially as 2 of our family members had gone to the wrong place and were delayed, very well handled. Fabulous food, we did all think we’d have welcomed a dish of lighter vegetables- broccoli etc, to break up the richness of the main courses but it was still delicious.

Been twice recently but many times over the years, recent visits have both been large parties 20 & 8 so had probably a full selection of the menu both Xmas and normal and all meals where excellent no complaints. All in all Great food, great value and fabulous service

Lovely food, quick service, a lovely place to meet up with relatives for lunch!

Delicious Sunday lunch, fabulous service, catered for coeliacs. We will definitely be back!! Thank you

My friend and I meet regularly here as it’s halfway between our homes and we have never had a bad meal. The staff are very friendly and always give you a warm greeting, the service is attentive and the food delicious. Would recommend to anyone in the area looking for somewhere nice to eat.

We visited the Craven Arms on a Tuesday evening whilst staying at a local hotel nearby. I must admit, I didn't think I was hungry and it was great that a smaller portion for some of the main meals was offered. I had the Sea Bass and it was absolutely delicious. We'd been on holiday all week and this was the best meal we'd had - including one in The Cotswolds at a trendy hotel that cost four times as much. The flavours were excellent and the fish perfectly cooked. With my appetite restored I had the Cafe Gourmand - a smaller portion of the sticky toffee pudding which was still the perfect size dessert. This was clearly homemade too, with pieces of dates and a delicious sauce. I am so pleased that other places in the area are closed on a Tuesday and hope the Craven Arms gains as a result. The outside of the building is nothing to write home about and the interior decor, with its patterned carpet, didn't fill me with confidence. Personally, I'd rip it up and see if there are floorboards underneath, open up any fireplaces and build a whole load of bookcases for a bit of warmth and ambience. But - forget my interior design longings - if the food is the thing... if you're hungry or want a special meal out, then this is the place. There were plenty of other diners there who are clearly in the know. Next time we stay near Settle, we will book in advance. Excellent.

From the minute we walked in the staff were friendly and helpful service with a smile ( which you don’t always get) the young waiters were polite and professional but with a smile. The food was perfect. Delicious. Will definitely recommend to friends n family, and we will be back .

Lovely Sunday lunch. Very good food, service and pleasant surroundings. Good atmosphere in restaurant and sensible prices.

First time at The Craven Arms and we’ll definitely be back. Food (and quality), service and atmosphere were on point and all felt very Christmassy - just lost a point for the cost of tea for 2 which seemed slightly excessive ….would recommend.

The food was great, with a nice atmosphere and we were served our meals before we needed another drink, so that is quick with my wife ha ha and great service, good value for the money. So we will be booking again. Thanks

Great food, lovely room and top class service, oh and a lovely pint of Mary Jane beer. We will be back (again!)

The Craven Arms is the half way point for a family meet up. We have had a few visits now and enjoyed everyone. The food is freshly cooked, with enough choices to satisfy most peoples palettes. I found the options of smaller portions on some dishes choices a really good idea .

Everything was brilliant. Superb experience.

Excellent food, friendly service, lovely venue and reasonably priced. Will definitely return. Highly recommend.
