Buck Country Pub in Ribble Valley

During our holiday as a family, we decided to have a walk to this lovely rural pub . The oweners are very polite and welcoming and my boys say it the best Coke they have ever had lol. The pub has more to offer then what you can expect with clean toilets and beautiful laid settings around ,plus the top deck outside as plenty of books ,blankets , woodfire etc for you if you just want to sit back and Relax and enjoy the scenery around . When we go again we will try the food. Can't wait !!

This pub was highly recommended by family and friends so decided to book a table for my wife's birthday. On arrival our drinks order was taken and we were shown to our table. Good menu choice however we were informed that some items had sold out due to a large party earlier......not a problem. My wife and I both ordered the veg soup which was absolutely delicious along with the fresh rustic bread. Sunday roast again was delicious with myself going for the beef and my wife opting for lamb....only gripe was there wasn't enough of the delicious vegetables. Definitely be recommending and will definitely be back

We had an Absolutely fantastic meal and the portions were huge my wife and son both had the fish which they said was delish where as I had The Grill everything cooked to perfection would definitely recommend especially if staying at the Ribble Valley Leisure Park 👍👍

This place came highly recommended and I really cannot see why. The whole experience and quality of food was very average. 2 of the party had chicken roasts (chicken was good by the way), 1 had cheese pie and I had chicken curry. My curry had obviously been quickly reheated as the pieces of chicken were very chewy and tough. 1 roast potato for each of the roasts, yes 1. Service needs working on I highlighted that my nine year old had been given an adult portion and was told “well we do 3 sizes” ???????? Needless to say she left the majority of the food. Took ages to take our order too and surprisingly empty at the time. We won’t be going back.

The beef baguette with chips and gravy was a meal in itself, stuffed with delicious melt in the mouth beef. We stayed in the caravan site next door and wandered down for lunch. Lovely pub with great outdoor seating in the middle of the countryside. The pleasant bar maid informed us of the pub quiz, singer and bingo on over the weekend.

After a day in Malham we passed sign for this place. We decided to stop in for some food and were so glad we did. Food was stunning, best suet pudding I’ve ever had; and the portion sizes were so generous. Service was outstanding: and the staff certainly deserve serious praise! Options for gluten free and dairy free too. I can’t recommend this place highly enough

Super menu with home cooked food. Generous portions and very friendly staff. The inside of the pub looked different from last time we were there.

Fantastic Sunday dinner, huge portions and absolutely delicious. Great friendly service too. I would absolutely recommend this place

We went for a drive, nowhere I particular but hoping to find a nice country pub. Saw a sign for The Buck Inn and followed it to a great little pub. Plenty of seating outside, with chickens just wandering around. Food was really tasty, staff friendly and views lively. Just what you want from a country pub. I'd definitely recommend it.

popped up to visit on a sunny Saturday afternoon... Hours drive from Manchester. great views en route. Arrived at The Buck and found a table easily.... Quite busy. Was attended to instantly, ordered Food.... Suet Steak Pudding, Chips, Mushy Peas and A Glass Of Lager. Within minutes it arrived, hot and steamy food and cool beer.... very tasty and a good size portion. Lovely food and great staff and atmosphere set in a lovely location. Been before years ago and felt the same then. Im going more often for sure!!

Decided to take a drive around downham in Lancashire and while finding somewhere to have lunch found the buck inn paythorne.Well we was extremely happy with our Sunday roast.Also did not have to wait very long from ordering our food to enjoying our lunch. With the restrictions with covid the staff were very efficient with keeping with the restrictions and could not fault anything.The food was so good fresh and tasty If your looking to go for a drive around clitheroe then stop off for something to eat and a great service from the staff

We arrived late due to a navigation error (mine) and were still met with a warm and friendly smile. I also had not realised dogs were not allowed in for dining (also my mistake) but the very kind lady with short blond hair suggested we have our drinks outside and order and that they call us in when the food is ready. This all went extremely smoothly, the food came out super hot and was absolutely delicious. As you can see, we all had clean plates which is testament to the chef! Among the meals was the king prawn curry, chicken chorizo and mushroom, steak and ale pudding, fish and chips and cod in sauce. All meals were superb, the right amount of sauce/veg/chips, everything was top notch. Feeding a table of 9 including 5 children is no easy task but it is safe to say every mouthful was a huge success. The staff were friendly and kind, patient and efficient, the food and drinks were very reasonable, we all had a lovely evening, huge thanks to all the staff for your hard work.

Nice good all round family pub.Not too bad on quality and price.Friendly staff.Clean and comfortable.

The most friendly and welcoming pub you will ever go to, and the meals are excellent as well, you certainly get value for money

Called in for lunch we had the roast beef off the xmas menu and the scottish salmon both were excellent. Friendly staff and good surroundings .would recomend and will be back again.

Pulled in for refreshments and had a Sunday lunch. Beef for meine Frau, Pork for me.Delicious!In a beautiful, wild country location, a delightful Landlady who makes you doubly welcome and good food; what more could you want?I hoped to see Game on the menu or Duck at least because they are quick and easy to pan fry/flash roast but sadly, no. This does not detract from the food on offer, just a personal hope for a pub surrounded by nature. Game Pie...., mmmmn!!!Even the music was good!!!!I look forward to my next visit but being thirty miles away, it won't be every week.

I ate here with my family last month and actually ended up going back again the next day! The people are ever so friendly and chatty, I felt really welcome there. The food was amazing, proper good pub grub (try saying that three times fast!) I would definitely recommend this place.

What a little gem this place once we have the Sunday lunch option that was £11.95 which included a complimentary starter. I couldn’t believe how good the quality was for the amount of money that we have paid absolutely first class can’t wait to go back again. The staff were friendly and very attentive and honestly cannot fault a thing book with confidence. My wife and myself had two starters two roast beef dinners Shared a desert and two glasses of wine each the total cost was just over £40

Excellent choice for a family meal out for 8 on our recent holiday. Great choice of meals, huge portions, good value, delicious food. Staff were very efficient and extremely friendly, very dog friendly with treats and a bowl of water for our 4-legged child! Was busy for a Wednesday night, seemed to be a lovely hub for the local community. Would definitely recommend.

First first and we loved it. Great location. Spaced out dinning. We had a variety of meals and was not disappointed all round. We will be back to try Sunday lunch. Thank you

Have eaten here today. The food is amazing. This is our third visit here ( twice in last couple of weeks!). The food and staff are fabulous.

Found this lovely pub after a day at Malham Cove and we were genuinely surprised at the tasty fresh food on offer here. Staff are really friendly and welcoming and made an effort with all their guests and considering it was a Wednesday teatime , the place soon filled up. We had vegetable soup and chicken pakoras for starters which were very tasty. Next, our son had the burger which was clearly home made and so juicy. My husband had large battered cod and chips which was fresh and I had the homemade steak and ale pudding which was delicious; the steak was so tender it was falling apart. We didn’t have any room for desserts- mostly because the meals were so filling but we’ll definitely put this place on the list to visit again.

Thought we would treat Dad to a Buck meal seen as he hasn't been able to go since his illness. Wow what an afternoon we have 8 of us in tow nobody left waiting nothing too much trouble and although busy Rachel still made time to come and talk credit to all who made a whole family very happy from mine to tours thanks Adrian Rollinson

Called in today on spec, for lunch, really friendly welcome with efficient service, first class menu with choices for all tastes, had the steak and ale suet pudding, blimey what a great taste and enormous yes enormous portions, well above average presentation, reasonable prices considering the high quality and standard.

Amazing from start to finish, this place is the go to venue for proper hearty roast dinners. The lamb was one of the best bits of meat that I have had in a long while.

First time here on our holiday food is Fantastic not had better anywhere definitely can recommend this pub

Excellent choice for 2 courses for Sunday Lunch. Roasts were so generous and lovely and tender. Friendly staff.

Visiting from out of area to celebrate a 40th. Party of 24. Amazing food, surroundings, staff from booking to eating. Would highly recommend and excellent value for money.

Took parents out Saturday night had not booked but was found table 4 wonderful mains followed by 3 fantastic dessert very full happy diners

Met up with family last Sunday. Great friendly service. Lovely good quality ‘normal plain’ food. Very reasonably priced.

Popped into buck inn Sunday late afternoon very busy but got table went for steak and ale pudding large a mammoth plate of food faultless fantastic service and good value for high quality food will be returning

We received a warm welcome in a place that's popular with the locals. On a mid week, early evening, the restaurant area was quite empty. I had the lamb shank with extra vegetables, instead of potatoes and it was very tasty indeed. There wasn't much ambience that evening, and so we left soon after eating.

Came along this lovely little pub on the way back from Kirby Lonsdale

We visited on Easter Sunday with our family. The pub was very busy but the standards remained as high as usual. The staff are all friendly and welcoming and despite being run off their feet they provided excellent service with a smile. The food was excellent too. We were a party of food and we all got our food at the same time .

A very enjoyable experience. A warm welcome on entry and you experience the warmth and friendliness from the start. My grandaughter ordered a chicken burger,not the sort from Mc Donald’s ,it appeared to be a whole breast with all the trimmings. I had the salmon.wow absolutely delicious. All told the service and food was excellent .

First of all excellent friendly, helpful staff, sensible size tables and good service. Food cooked to order and just what we expected! Manageable menu with more than adequate choice. We shall visit again soon!!

At a family get-together, we needed somewhere within walking distance of our rented cottage - The Buck was right at the end of the lane. A pleasant atmosphere, good food, good beer was all we needed for a very enjoyable evening. I would happily go back and so happy to recommend.

The best home made food in the Ribble Valley. Warm welcome, excellent service and fabulous value for money. The Buck Inn is a must.

We went for Sunday lunch three weeks ago. The service was excellent and all staff very friendly. However my beef was so tough it was inedible, I couldn't even cut it, the one roast potato was also disappointing as it was not crispy and quite greasy. I told the waitress and the lady at the bar who both said they were sorry. I have eaten here before in the evening and it has been fine, maybe it was just a bad day. It was very busy and is obviously very popular.

On a unusually warm and sunny Saturday afternoon in February we enjoyed lunch at this fantastic Country pub, which nestles in the sleepy Ribble Valley village of Paythorne. The surrounding scenery is picturesque and on a beautiful sunny afternoon, it’s paradise in Lancashire.

Been here several times now and can't recommend it enough, good food, great service and friendly staff, never had a bad meal yet.

Visited the Buck inn on a cold Monday night after a recommend on Social media. On arrival we were made to feel very welcome at this is a Family run Pub and everything was spot on from the service to the food nothing to much trouble and good value for money. We ordered the Salmon with vegetables and a Cheese Burger chips thoroughly enjoyed our meals, A lovely Family and deserve all the success. We will be most definitely returning.

Went last week for a meal been 4 times now never disappointed staff amazing chef great landlady’s great just a lovely place to visit food is all homemade x

Ate Sunday lunch here recently on a day out driving the dales from Blackpool and saw this pub advertised from the main road so decided to give it a try, very glad we did as food was delicious in nice surroundings with very efficient staff. I had the beef lunch and my wife had chicken as said delicious and portion size god, you won’t be hungry afterwards. Off the beaten track but well worth a visit. Recommended.

We arrived at 5 30 The Sunday roast had run out as it was very busy & the meals stopped at 6pm. We were made very welcome shown to a table given menus & told we could still have the complimentary starters with our mains. My husband chose the lamb shank with veg I chose the cheese & onion pie with veg. They came quickly the plates were full. The meals were hot & tasty. The staff very attentive. We will be calling again & this time earlier as the Sunday lunches looked great.

Called in on Sunday afternoon at 3.15 and asked if we had a reservation!!! Got seated even though we hadnt and very efficient staff. Free starter was a bonus. We had the Lamb and the Beef roast dinners. It really was an excellent dinner and experience and we will call again,only living 8 miles away is handy.. Best kept secret around.

We decided to give The Buck a try on spec. The welcome was efficient and pleasant and the food, presented without an undue wait, was excellent in every respect. There were downsides however, particularly the noise. Being holiday time there were many children around, so this prevented the meal being an opportunity to fully enjoy the surroundings. That said, this pub serves a purpose, in that it clearly caters for the needs of the many residents of the static caravan park up the road and succeeds as a result.

We called in while in the area and received a very warm welcome, from both staff and locals. We hadn’t intended to eat (don’t normally have lunch on Saturdays), but menu looked good so we decided to share a sandwich. It was absolutely yummy, and I could have eaten one to myself it was that good!! (Chicken and bacon in ciabatta with home made chips). Beer was well kept and also delist. We are hoping to buy a holiday home close by so this could be our weekend local

Called in on the off chance tonight (fri 20.07.18) that they were dog friendly (had our dog with us) and they had a spare table. It was very busy, but we were lucky to grab a table not longer after entering - and they were dog friendly - mega bonus for us as our dog comes everywhere with us. Loved it straight away, loved the atmosphere and the staff and the punters/locals were really friendly! Good menu - something for everyone and really reasonably priced. I had the creamy garlic mushrooms, to start - they were lovely. and fella had the chicken pakoras. He really enjoyed them. I had the chicken and chorizo in creamy sauce with rice and vegetables for Main. And fella had cheese and onion pie. We both really enjoyed, and even though we were almost too full for anything else - we managed to squeeze in a Eton mess dessert! Yum!! so glad we came, food brill, staff brill, fab atmosphere. Can’t wait to return :-) thank you

Booked a table for four at this friendly country inn and had mostly enjoyable meals

Always plenty of well cooked food. Menu a good pub choice. Staff lovely. Service is good. Prices are very fair.

Another fantastic roast Sunday lunch!! looked forward to it on our visit from East Yorkshire. And thanks for letting us bring our dog, who enjoyed it also!! Highly recommended. Will visit again (coming back in August!)

I looked up local dog friendly pubs as we wanted to go out for something g to eat whilst Lon a short break away. We were not disappointed, as soon as we walked through the door we were made to feel very welcome, we were waiting on with drink and food and the staff were really friendly. We asked them to specifically cook out dog a few sausages, which they did, I had pork chops with BBQ sauce and salad, and the only criticism was when I asked if the salad had celery in it, they said no, however, the salad did have celery In it, so I was unable to eat it. Lovely place and atmosphere.

Thought we would treat the daughter in law to a meal out and Boom the Buck Inn sprung to mind Rachel and the team didn't disappoint 3 great meals fabulous welcome and the same atmosphere you always get from the Buck

What a wonderful vist I would love to thank Steve and his amazing staff they looked after us and the food was amazing all home cooked I had mix grill wow it was that nice we went back for Sunday dinner I would recommend this lovely pub

It's always difficult to know what lovely local food and service really is, although i,m always looking out for it. Especially with overuse of words like 'real' and 'genuine'. But you know when you know. Friendly, comfortable and great food.

We booked a table of 8 last week and all of the party really enjoyed the food. The steak and kidney pudding was particularly a big hit with the men especially as the portions were large.

hubby and I stopped off for Sunday lunch. it was great food I had roast beef and hubby had roast pork. Yorkshire puddings were fab. great value for money too. staff really friendly and two real fires were much needed due to snow outside. will definitely go back

Called in here for lunch as we've been here before and again we were not disappointed. The staff are really nice and friendly and it has a very warm atmosphere. The food is freshly cooked to order and there is plenty of it. My wife had Lasagne which would have easily fed 2, and I had a burger which came on a ciabatta which was about 6 inch long with the burger at the same length but about nearly 1/2" thick with chips,salad,coleslaw and onion rings. Both dishes were very tasty.

Had an excellent meal in this pub last night the food and service was faultless !! Excellent home made food can't beat it !!! Would definitely recommend a visit !

When you travel the road from Gisburn to Long Preston you go past a sign on your left saying The Buck. Past it many times but this time decided to check it out. Just called in for a drink and we will definitely be going...

Fireplace with blazing open wood fire in a genuine country pub. Lovely, real, freshly prepared food. Generous portions and one...

A very warm and welcoming place where you are greeted by lovely staff and looked after as if you are...

We enjoyed a lovely meal with a great selection of vegetables. The sirloin steak was so tasty. My wife had...

Went in thinking of eating but it was not our scene, children running round and playing all over I think...

Visited whilst on holiday nearby for Sunday lunch. Food and service is outstanding. We look forward to returning

This has to be one of the friendliest pubs we have ever visited. Despite never having been before we were treated like old friends. Nothing stuck-up about the staff, they were very down-to earth, and helped us with directions. The food was traditional British and beautifully cooked.

We visit this country pub regularly and the food is always fabulous, however tonight the sirloin steak was to die for. We have always had great food and I would really recommend the Lamb and the 8oz burger which unlike everywhere else is not served on a brioche bun but a ciabatta instead. Rachael, Steve and the whole team are welcoming - once you visit you'll want to visit again.

Went to the buck inn at paythone tonight for my tea what a great place friendly staff very plesent and service with a smile I well recommended going for something to eat the food was piping hot when it arrived and you get great valve for your money well worth a trip to the buck at paythone

The most amazing veggy lasagne ever. Everyone really enjoyed the food .Lovely staff very friendly,clean and great atmosphere. Can't wait to go again.

This is a great country pub, as well as fantastic home cooked food and great beer, it sells paintings from a local artist, (I bought one) and locally made biscuits, Eccles cakes, and Chorley cakes, which were great! The landlady is really friendly and welcoming, and we were made to feel very welcome.My wife had a seafood pasta dish with prawns and crayfish, and I had a great "square gourmet burger, with onion rings, salad, homemade coleslaw, chips and salad, far too much for me to eat, but all absolutely delicious! The pub is in a little hamlet with a holiday home/caravan site nearby, which has a swimming pool and sauna etc. I Love Copper Dragon beers and this is one of the few places that sells the REAL copper dragon beer although it now has to be called Recoil brewery's beer due to legal cases!I definitely intend to return as soon as possible, and try some of the suet steak and Guinness pie, and jam rolly polly, yum yum!.

Another fantastic meal along with a very warm welcome from Rachel, Steve and staff. It would be very hard to find anything to complain about at The Buck Inn. We have been coming here for the last 5+ years, always a warm welcome and excellent food. They are always prepared to go the extra mile to make sure you are happy.

We recently bought a holiday home near the Buck Inn. We've have a good few meals there as well as drinks. Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended.

Best Sunday lunch I have tasted. Proper cooking, wonderful service with a great big smile. Two courses for under £10 fantastic value for money. This place could show expensive pretentious restaurants a thing or two. Will return definitely.

The Sunday Lunch Offer is absolutely superb value, at £9.95; for two courses of this quality is hard to match and the country location is just an added bonus with rare animals just across the road - where could you better this?

Visited in a Wednesday evening. Ordered meal ...salt and pepper chicken burger no bacon available to put on it... asked for a few extra onion rings to be told no spare veg in kitchen... on the whole an average meal ...orange veg (carrots and suede )a double portion of chips not big enough for one and bland sauces.

In a small country pub with a huge soul. They have just provided an absolutely fabulous half way to Christmas dinner for 90 in one sitting! The food puts big hotels and posh restaurants to shame. Thankyou Steve & Rachel Carroll it's been brilliant!!

Really enjoyed our meals here. The service was excellent as was the food. What a welcoming atmosphere. Nothing was too much trouble for the landlady and staff. I had the chicken pate for starters......which had enough toast to go with it and a lovely chutney. That was followed by salmon which was beautifully cooked and served. Others in the party had the country stack....chicken and gammon in a brandy and peppercorn sauce which looked equally mouth watering! All I can say is just go and try it out!

We called here for Sunday 'lunch'right at the end of the afternoon and just before a fairly early last orders for food. The staff were all both very efficient and cheerful and our Sunday roasts were substantial, well presented and very hot. Our meals were delicious and enjoyable.

Driving around looking for a pub with meals at 2pm can be a challenge but the 8 of us found this oasis for local ales and great tucker. Well recommended

We were driving along the road when we saw a sign advertising this country pub, being owned by the same family for 20 years, and decided to call in. What a brilliant decision. When we went in the pub was emptying.... but not for long! There is a very good choice of food which should suit most tastes. We chose the home made lasagne and home made suet pudding - naughty but extremely nice. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. There is nothing pretentious about it just a warm welcoming place. Definitely return when we are in the area again.

Simply put... I never tire of this country pub. The food served up is delicious. It's so fresh, well presented and cooked to perfection. My wife and family have been going to The Buck almost every week during the summer, for the last three years. The staff are so attentive, accommodating and fun to be around. The quality of the food greatly exceeds the price you'll pay and the beer's good too... Cheers.I have absolutely no qualms in recommending this place. It's so friendly, warm and dare I say it? busy but that doesn't get in the way of Rachel and her staff delivering excellent service to all.

Having a bank holiday drive, we came across the Buck and decided to call in, initially just for a drink, the lovely aroma coming from the kitchen made us decide to have lunch. This is a real country pub, absolutely lovely friendly staff, huge roaring fire. We both chose the ciabatta one with beef and one with chicken and bacon, both came with salad and chips. The breads were full to overflowing, the beef came with a separate gravy boat. Both were lovely and so filling. we both really enjoyed our lunch. It is obviously a popular spot as it was filling up quickly, looking at the food other diners were eating, all looked good. If your looking for a fine dining experience this isn't the place for you, if however you want real food, nice atmosphere and a warm welcome, you really should try to visit.

I have visited this pub a number of times over the last few years. My parents own a lodge on the Ribble Valley Leisure Park which is located within walking distance. The pubs interior is old style decor within a cottage environment and is very homely.The staff do all they can to make this a pleasurable experience. They are friendly and you can see they want to get to know and understand their customers by the way they interact with them. The food is very good value for money and is good sizes portions. The Sunday lunch is fabulous. I recommend you take a visit.

Just wanted to say thanks for a lovely Sunday lunch. Looking for roast beef and yorkshires and got exactly that and then some. Lovely, lovely food. Welcoming pub and staff. Very busy (good sign!) so reservations recommended, but thank you for fitting us in today! Also recommend the sticky toffee pudding. Will come back next time we visit ribblesdale.

Called in here early on a Saturday evening and the pub was medium busy. Helpful and welcoming staff sorted out a table in the dining room whilst we sat in the bar with a drink and a menu.Going thro,to the dining room we were soonserved with our meals. Both were fine with generous helpings.We did finish with a desert which was very good.The pub does not have an extensive menu but there is more than sufficient choice and everything which was being served looked very nice.Overall a pleasant dining experience but not memorable, as the title it's an unpretentious country pub but with very friendly staff.

Called in on a cold wet afternoon, not sure if they would still be serving, but I was just in time at 2.30. Choice of sitting in bar or restaurant, all comfortable and warm. Friendly and attentive service. There are a couple of steps at the front entrance with no handrail, not sure if there is an alternative access. Nice and warm. Reasonably varied menu, though not particularly extensive. Special, maybe just for lunchtime, was cod and chips with mushy peas, which was under £7 and very good.

We were a party of five and we all enjoyed the food at the Buck. Fish, lasagne, chicken & gammon stack, pork steaks and cheese pie were all tasty and filling, although vegetarian options are limited. Our table was near the door (lots of comings and goings) and its 'island position' meant that there was heavy traffic with customers and staff passing by - so not the best table in the house. We would return for the food but request a table with better position.

We called at the Buck on Sunday for tea, the place was very busy, we were greeted warmly & asked if we were dining, the menu's were given, we ordered a drink at the bar & were then shown to our table. The starter of Pate arrived quickly & was very tasty, we all chose roast beef & we certainly were not disappointed, very nice & excellent value! We will be returning soon!

We were staying close by and had read mainly good reviews, so booked a table for Saturday night. The staff were lovely and friendly, service was very good, serving the meals for all eight of us together, all hot and well prepared. Too stuffed for puddings, we'll have to go back sometime!

A short time ago I picked up a business card on The Buck Country Pub elsewhere. I looked the pub up and viewed the website. I also visited Trip Advisor and found reviews very favourable. My wife and I called on a Friday lunch time. My wife settled for the cod and chips with mushy peas and I went for the Hotpot which was featured as one of the day's Specials. The pub appeared to be quite busy for a cold winter's day. The premises appeared very homely and the staff were most pleasant. I was so looking forward to the lamb hotpot. My first thoughts on the dish being served to our table was "what a large dish - there is enough for two here." All the food being served appeared to be generous portions. The hotpot was topped with a couple of layers of thinly sliced potato, which were not browned. They looked pale. On sampling the potato I found they were severely undercooked. I was in a quandry. I have never had occasion to send a meal back ever, but felt I had to inform the management. The dish was returned to the kitchen and the lady who was front of house returned to our table and apologised. I was given the option of either waiting a further twenty minutes for the dish to be cooked properly or to order a different dish, which I did, following my wife's choice of cod and chips. A gentleman, probably Steve, joint owner, then came to our table and further apologised. He confirmed the hotpot was not cooked properly and would speak to the chef. I thanked him for his concern. My replacement dish was quickly served. My wife and I found the cod and chips ok, excellent value but we have sampled better battered cod. I would have liked to have given a higher rating but I can only relate my experience on that particular day. I feel it 's an exception rather than the rule. I cannot understand how my hotpot was allowed out of the kitchen when grossly undercooked. I feel the management genuinely regretted the incident.

After a long cold Sunday walk me and my fiends a family wanted a Sunday lunch so called after passing and booked a table of 9 with no issue at all. Arrived and was greeted by an armour of home cooked food . Sunday menu is great value for adults and kids . All the staff were friendly and best of all the food was out of This world REAL home cooked food great Portion of lamb roast !! I would definitely recommend and will revisit again soon !!! THANKYOU for your hospitality

At long last we have visited this lovely country pub,and we was not disappointed ,very warm welcome warm atmosphere with a lovely open log fire . The beer was well kept and very smooth. The reason for the visit it was my wife's birthday (she is very particular) she loved it ,and we have been to a lot of local eateries. The food was first class and very reasonabley priced.We will be back again in the very near future.Well done Buck Country Pub.

This family owned pub/restaurant is a jewel in the crown of the Ribble Valley. Rachael and Steve provide a lovely warm welcome with good old fashioned home cooking which never fails to satisfy. You will never go home hungry from the Buck Country Pub.

Awful food. After seeing the Facebook page and video of the food I booked a table for 2 on Monday evening. On arrival staff very friendly, we were given hand written menus, we ordered our food.The food reminded me of school dinners, lumpy mash and swede, the side dish to accompany the lamb shank was deep fried cauliflower! Not sure if that was left over from Sunday lunch the day before. My husband had fish and chips, both were pale and I could have done better from my own freezer at home, nothing home cooked about them. After travelling 30 mile round trip on a frosty night, we were very disappointed. Nothing like the promotional video! Will not be returning or recommending!

We were staying at a holiday cottage across the road so this was a natural choice. We were made so welcome by all the staff - the customer service was excellent. We suspected the portions were huge so just went for mains. We all loved our food which was top quality. Very reasonably priced. Thanks for a lovely evening, all.

We have just spent a week at Paythorne visiting family in Skipton and walking in the beautiful surrounding country side. We ate at the Buck 3 times during last week and I must say that Rachel and the team made us feel most welcome.There was no issue with our rather large (well behaved dog) and the Children were very well catered for and even got involved with a game of pool with a few locals .The food was great well cooked tasty British pub fare, I am a stickler that if we eat in a pub and you get real chips you allways know the food will be good and I was not wrong.The home made pies were to die for, the kids ate chicken and the lasagna and loved it, the whole ambiance was bang o the money for a great country pub. Thank you Rachel and the guys for the warm hospitality and great food , next time we are in the area We are definitely popping in so make sure your Cheese and Onion pies are in and ready to go :-)

After a long day walking in Settle with our 8 and 5 year old, we spotted a sign off the main road and decided to drive up as we had a long drive home and were all hungry.We were a bit unsure if we would get a table, as it was tea time, and a Sunday, my husband nipped in and asked, and was told no problem and to come in.Staff were all very friendly and welcoming and the food was absolutely lovely, just what was needed after our long day.The Sunday roast was 2 two courses for £9.95 and I can't fault it.We will definitely be back.

Stopped here for quick lunch. Very good value and large portions. Had a hot sandwich which was very good. Staff were friendly and attentive.

We happened on this eating establish quite by chance on our way up to the Lakes via the scenic route.It was Friday lunch and filled with a day trip of OAP's it seemed who were all waiting for their fish and chip lunches.Bar staff said we would have approx 20 min wait so we ordered drinks and our snack lunches.Three of us went for hot baguettes, mine roast beef with onion gravy, a pulled pork one and a cheese and ham. Chips to accompany and a sharing platter of liver pate and chutneys which was devoured by one person! Food was hot and tasty and generous portions. Will definitely eat here again
