Recommended by the owner of our narrow boat. This place is great! Staff are attentive, beer is awesome and food..... omg the food! Party for the taste buds. We both went for pate to start. Absolutely beautiful. Couldâve had another portion, it was so good. Need to sell the pate in jars to takeaway... I wouldâve bought 10 jars! Belly pork for main and missus went for bangers n mash. Both stunning. Belly pork was to die for and plate completely cleared! Staff made a fuss of our dog, which is always appreciated. If youâre in Skipton, this is a must visit.

My partner and I have eaten here twice (second time to try again) as everyone seems to rave about it. We wonât return. Both times the service has been poor - had to sit and wait for ages before our food order was taken and both times, we had empty drinks glasses and no-one asked if we wanted another drink or how the food was. Food... watery, bland gravy steak pie served in dish with cheap oven chips. Pork steak (apparently cooked to medium as per the menu but we noticed this has been taken off) was cooked well done. A requested medium cooked steak which was rare. Always loads of staff there but no-one seeming to be doing anything, hard to get their attention to ask for extra drinks or condiments. Atmosphere, itâs lovely outside in the beer garden which does have a good atmosphere but inside itâs dull and quiet. Itâs overpriced and underwhelming. Itâs almost like theyâve built up a good reputation (as years ago it was excellent) and theyâre happy living on that - no effort on maintaining or improving. When really it needs looking at, especially the chefs.

My wife and stayed at the Inn for 2 nights. Whilst I was not able to give a good review for the accommodation my experience of the restaurant was completely the opposite.From the waiting staff to the excellent food we were extremely impressed.My wife had the lamb on both nights and thoroughly enjoyed it on both occasions. I had the fish platter and liver on the second night. Once more these were cooked to perfection.The breads on arrival were a lovely touch. The staff were extremely attentive without ever being intrusive.Well what a review THANK YOU and we look forward to welcoming you again soon! I shall certainly pass on your comments to our team! The accommodation review well we shall leave that for you to judge yourself dear readers! As you have said Mr J you will return! Great stuff we look forward to seeing you soon!Veronica and the team

Called in here after staying overnight at the Travelodge; first visit to Skipton.Two of us chose the granola with fruit and yoghurt and our friend had the half breakfast. The granola was beautifully presented, was a very good-sized portion and was delicious. The half breakfast was excellent value at £7 including a cup of tea and was also very well presented and included several fresh tomatoes and mushrooms as well as sausage, egg, beans, toast and bacon.We sat upstairs where the decor was very quirky and interesting.The staff were lovely too, making the whole experience very pleasant. Highly recommended.Hello!Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review of your visit!We are so glad that you enjoyed your breakfast and our quirky little bar!We hope that you return in the future and look forward to seeing you again.Thanks again,The Two Sisters

As the name suggests, this establishment is very close to Skipton station and I called in when I had plenty of time to wait for a train. I am glad that I did - received a warm welcome in cosy, friendly surroundings. Drinks choices were good and they have a very inviting looking menu. I would definitely return here and thank you to the staff for making me feel at home.

We booked 2 rooms for one night, meeting up with my brother and his wife from Tasmania, and were delighted with our experience at the Old Swan Inn.We chose Gargrave due to its proximity to Skipton, and it is a really beautiful and characterful Yorkshire Village.Our accommodation at the Old Swan Inn was spacious and comfortable, and spotlessly clean, and just what we needed for a nights stay.We had booked a table in the restaurant and were glad we had because the restaurant and the bar were busy, which is always a good sign! The menu had a really good choice of meals, and the food that we had was all very tasty, well presented and well cooked. Service was also very good, with prompt attention to our requests and friendly and efficient service. Our accommodation included a full breakfast, and this was one of the best we had experienced in a long time, with a choice of fresh fruit, cereals and cooked options.The landlady, Lindsay, and all of the staff we met provided great Yorkshire hospitality, and we would have no hesitation in recommending the Old Swan Inn.
