This used to be part of Ribble Valley Inns and is now a Brunning & Price pub. We dined here on the last day before it shut for a 4-week renovation so it will be interesting to see the new look. It’s a great place to stop off if you’re speeding down the A59 and we had a lovely late Sunday lunch here with ‘proper’ pub grub – fish & chips for my wife and cheese and onion pie for me. A good wine list too.

Love this shop! Went in for a coffee and cake with my friend and bought a load of unusual things, spent a fortune the both of us lol my friend bought a flamingo, so glad it came apart to transport lol wish i could order things online!

Excellent little quirky café/shop in Skipton. I has something I have never had before a dish of Nigerian Jollof rice. basically rice cooked in a load of vegetables ad herbs, filling and full of flavour! Had a gorgeous Bakewell cake to follow! Would recommend.

Fantastic old Inn on the A59 outside Skipton. Full of character, good beer and food. And on cold winter days their HUGE wood burners are awesome!

Been here a few times the food is basic but good just don't expect a pudding after the main meal, we have now left twice without getting served with the sweet menu, they just simply forget.

Wonderful lunch yesterday at the Angel at Hetton. Thoroughly recommend it.

Hi me and my husband had a wonderful meal here at easter we had Been on a day out. And on the drive home we were getting hungry so my husband spotted your place so in we came. We had never been before and we were welcomed like regulars. The staff were great and the food was to die for. They even gave us a glass when we asked if we could buy it they gave it us free. We will definitely be visting again when in the area. Thanks again for a lovely meal and at the right price to. All the best Karen & Doug

Our family stayed at The Devonshire Arms on Friday for my mothers 75th birthday celebrations. We had a wonderful day and night. By far the best part of our stay was the food at The Burlington Restaurant, which was top notch. They have 4 Rosettes and I would imagine a Michelin star is on its way. From the amuse bouche to the complimentary chocolates, everything was perfect. I was particularly impressed with my duck liver starter and 55 day aged beef for main. The presentation was excellent, however more importantly the food was extremely tasty and satisfied my hunger. Have eaten in any fine dining restaurants I have become a bit jaded with 'molecular gastronomy' and I much prefer this style of fine dining cuisine. The wine waiter did a great job too, recommending a replacement for our corked wine. All the waiting staff were professional and friendly. Well done to the chef.

BAD, BAD, BAD THEN EVEN WORSE.

Went to the boars head today with one of my sisters and brother in law for lunch, we were visiting him to discuss the funeral arrangements for my other sister who he had been married to for 45 years. What a disaster! We didn't want to make a fuss for his sake so after my sister asked for a clean knife I didn't complain about my food being served on a chipped plate or the chips being hard or the latte being luke warm, my brother in law didn't want to complain about his cauliflower being too cold to eat either. But....when the last mouthful of my hot chocolate fudge cake was like eating a toffee crisp due to it being over microwaved I felt I just had to tell the barman-cum-waiter about my pudding when he asked if everything was ok. He then proceeded to collect the plates and shouted "unbelievable " when he reached the bar. I went to the bar and paid the bill telling him I didn't appreciate his comment, his reply was "and I didn't appreciate you three sitting in the corner creating either". Needless to say I will never go back there again. I have never been spoken to in such a rude manner before.

Been going for years also the one at Gargrave. it's the best we have been to also the staff are so polite and attentive make your meal and night special .

We had a two break at the Boar's Head in Sept'14. The welcome, accommodation, food was first class but a 'gold star' award for the friendliness of all the staff. The Bowie's.

Four of us visited 1/8/2014, as good as ever, good ale, Bombardier, Wainwrights, plus others. Gammon and fish and chips both recommended. Hugh, Skipton

Best little find of the trip , amazing food and lovely staff we called in twice. Having duck the first time and second time I had a game pie and my wife had roast beef all excellent .

This hotel is lovely. My husband and me stayed recently with our dog. We had a lovely welcome and the food is really excellent. We ate in the bar area in the evening as we had our dog with us, but it was fine. My husband said it was the best steak he had ever had and I chose from the wide vegetarian menu. The food is wonderful. This can also be said for the breakfast and I even had vegetarian sausages, which were beautiful. I recommend this hotel as it is an ideal location, the welcome is warm and the food is stunning. OK, there is some road noise, but it does not go on all night. I slept fine. I will definitely be returning.

In response to an earlier review. Breakfast was not served in the restaurant but outside it as normal. If the customers had mentionned their concerns to anyone we would have happily situated them in the restaurant Best Regards Derek
