Cock and Bottle in Craven

The Cock & Bottle is our first choice when out in Skipton, great beer and food. Topped off by a fantastic team that make this one of the most welcoming pubs in the area

Late lunch on a Sunday. This pub looked warm and inviting. Good menu + specials board. Other people's food looked impressive. We ordered lamb pie off the specials board. Service was quick and the food was great. Recommended.

Fantastic atmosphere,superb tasty well presented food and very good value for money.Extremly accommodating, my partner and mother inlaw . Staff are very attentive and friendly. Only one minor issue! Waiting time for food a tad too long. But that said worth the wait. We enjoyed our visit. Would advise to pre book a table extremely busy.

Came for a few drinks after work with my partner, son and parents. Had a lovely time, great atmosphere, the Staropramen is the best lager in Skipton and the service is always excellent. Skipton’s best pub by a mile.

Basic, but acceptable, pub food with varied menu.. Lively bar when we were there on a Friday night. Also has live music, some nights

Visited for lunch on a Sunday place was busy but managed to get a table with our dog too Ordered pie & burger Pie was delicious and the chunky chips the carrots were tasteless and the gravy accompaniment was thin instant gravy nothing like the delicious pie gravy I was expecting? Such a shame as this spoils the meal Burger was delicious and service was excellent 👍

There is an Olympus burger in this establishment (not the Olympics, we're talking greek style halloumi!) and by Jove you have to try it (unless you can't eat cheese or meat in which case the fries are just as divine). The cider was refreshing. The environment was warm and friendly. They also allow well behaved dogs, so I'm all for that. Lovely staff, delicious pub grub. The only thing I'd mention is that the ladies' bathroom was not very clean at the time with a lot of tissues overflowing in places but it was a busy day (Saturday during the summer holidays) so it could be a one off. Other than that, will definitely come again!

Called in at this pub/restaurant for drinks it was very busy,we only had drinks but the food looked delicious and the service was excellent and friendly,we will definitely visit again and try the food next time in Skipton.

Pie excellent ..large portions..only negative scampi was really nice but came with wedges not chips ..own personal preference prefer chips.not frozen wedges. Nice ambiance ,service very good.

Staff were very good but the food was poor. Not home made at all and tasted like a microwave meal. Place was dirty with cigarette butts on the floor. Very noisy and an overall unpleasant experience

Lovely pub in Skipton. We had dinner there twice during our recent stay in the dales and both times were amazing! Being dairy and gluten free, we usually struggle to eat without having to ask to make changes to the menu so it was a nice surprise to have more than one choice for food! And it was really delicious. The portions are so generous. Friendly staff too.

What has happened to the food quality? Always had great food here in the past. Not this time. Poor quality and didn't taste fresh. The fries were soft and tasteless and the chicken in the gyros flatbread was measly and poor quality. It was like the frozen Aldi version. Beer was good and decent service, but the food badly let our visit down. Won't be eating here again

If you're gluten free ...don't go! Been before and enjoyed the 3 for £18 starters to share which included 2 or 3 gluten free options. Returned today and the menu has been changed and has no gluten free options. Staff have no idea and didn't seem to know the difference between gluten free and vegan!

Great staff, welcoming, friendy and very efficient. Great range of drinks at reasonable prices and great food. Well presented, well cooked and at value for money prices. Wife had the lasagna which she thorougly enjoyed and I had the fish and chips, excellent white fillet in a very crispy batter. Once again thoroughly enjoyed even though I could only manage to eat half of it - it was just too large. For the total cost of just £28 for both meals represents excellent value. Give the Cock & Bottle a try, you wont be disappointed (or leave still hungry). 10/10.

Fantastic little bar tucked away out of sight - food was fantastic recommend the steak salad, steak cooked to perfection - sat outside in the sunshine and despite it being very busy the young lady (rushed off her feet) remained professional and extremely polite, she wasn’t fazed by the amount of customers - great place to spend a few hours - well done all!

i booked online as i knew it would be busy Good Friday at Easter, and im so glad i did it was busy. our table was ready and the staff came quickly to serve us with a menu and ask for drinks the food came it was all hot and nicely served and tasted really nice if we were in Skipton again we would visit for food again nice staff good location and brilliant food with a good choice on menu

Lovely pud, always busy, but there lies the problem. The staff are inexperienced, rude and very condescending and probably shouldn’t be customer facing!

Really hectic place , cramped , dirty and noisy. Despite booking a table placed in a awful room doghairs all over the seats, meals were pre warmed very dry and steak kidney pies bought in not good wouldn't recommend

We walked Past and it was very busy so we got a table outside as full inside, it was a nice garden area. We both ordered the steak and ale pie, when it came it was only like warm I didn’t ask to get it warmed up as didn’t fancy a microwave two minute warm up. The pastry was hard as well it didn’t feel fresh, the veg was awful whole tiny carrots with ends on and green beans not topped and tailed and potato wedges, a bit odd with meat pie. We were disappointed my pie as home is 10 times better. The staff were efficient and friendly. Definitely wouldn’t recommend

We’d booked on a busy Saturday evening and were grateful to be offered a table slightly further away from the more vibrant bar area. Great range of drinks and the food was excellent - it’s clear why they’ve had great reviews. We went with the burger and pie, and followed up with an apple crumble and treacle sponge, all of which we really enjoyed. The service was excellent, and all the staff were incredibly warm and friendly, despite being busy. This was a great find, definitely one to visit if you’re in the area and want great pub food in a welcoming atmosphere.

We have passed this pub hundreds of times when in Skipton and after reading reviews on TripAdvisor decided it was time to make a visit. It is a very well run bar with a great ambience and excellent staff. We ordered our drinks and then chose our food. There's a great selection of meals on offer, all excellent value. We shared the veggie flat bread and chips which was plenty for us and was really tasty. The bread had a lovely char grilled flavour. We already had a meal booked elsewhere for the evening but we will definitely eat here on our next visit. There's plenty of outdoor seating too.

We were passing through Skipton, and stumbled over this lovely friendly Inn. We only had a quick drink, but the food coming out also looked amazing! The whole interior ouses charm, and is well worth a visit when in Skipton!

Visited here for an evening meal. We opted for the two for £24 which also included their large meals so we opted for large fish and chips and large bangers and mash. The fish was better that at the seaside, nice crispy batter and flaky fish. Staff were very friendly and the pub had a good vibe. Would definitely visit again when in Skipton

I had a lovely lunch with my teenage son. The food was excellent, great quality and good value for money. The service was first class (food delivered within 15 mins and staff were both helpful and polite). I loved the atmosphere in the pub. I would highly recommend the Cock and Bottle for a lunchtime time meal.

The food and atmosphere were excellent, friendly and attentive staff in an old fashioned but well kept pub. The guiness was as good as it should be and all reasonably priced. The Lamb and rosemary pie was delicious. The proper fish finger butty was excellent.

Booked in for a meal with my wife and two teenage children on Saturday evening. The service was excellent: friendly, quick and lots of smiles. The food was truly excellent: one Caesar salad, one Halloumi salad, lots of chips, one Ploughman’s and one sirloin steak. All cooked to perfection and big portions. I had Treacle sponge for dessert ~ delicious. The ale was spot on, the rugby was on the tv, the bill was extremely reasonable … need I say more?! Definitely a five-star experience all round! Huge thanks to all the staff 🙏🏼

A real hidden gem of a pub. Our third time here for lunch and it never disappoints! It has a really great feel to it but its staff, service and food is what really is outstanding. Today we had the Clucker burger with extra meat and the cajun chicken flatbread with fries. Delicious 😋

This pub never disappoints. I don’t write many reviews but these are the best burgers I have ever had, and they now sell neck oil. 👍👍👍. Table service was great, steady and attentive without being pushy. Brilliant. The only improvement would be the chips. As good as the chips were the burgers deserved hand cut triple cooked chips. I would have given 6 stars with those. Well done C&B. 👋👋👋

What a fabulous little food pub, the atmosphere was lovely and relaxed, staff very friendly. The food was very good full of flavour and delicious. We will definitely be back.

One of the best pubs in Skipton, with a friend and welcoming atmosphere. There is also a cracking quiz each Wednesday evening.

Couldn't complain about the food, nothing special but ok. The staff however, disgusting we were served by a particularly rude girl called Tina? She was so rude i will definitely be telling everyone i know to avoid this spot. Shame the staff ruin a place.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, competitively priced drinks. Didn't have the food but what came out looked good

Booked for 13 for my birthday meal . The food was great the service excellent our waitress worked extremely hard and was very pleasant . Everybody enjoyed the evening . Thank you to everyone involved .

Only had one drink, before going off for a meal. Cask Beer served perfectly. Well run pub. Staff waiting on were good.

Lovely food and great atmosphere, friendly staff however £8.40 is very expensive for a double disaronno and mixer!!

Visited for lunch this weekend and it was brilliant! Staff as super friendly, the food was gorgeous and the place itself is lovely. You definitely need to book as they were very busy and had to turn a lot of people away. We will definitely be visiting again when we’re next in Skipton x

Visited while on holiday,portions huge friendly staff and plenty of gluten free options,gutted i didnt have room for pudding.

Visited on a Thursday evening. Despite the limitations of Covid the welcome was warm and the service spot on.Sharing plank as a starter for 3 then a couple of burgers and a veggie moussaka. All the food was excellent, lovely crisp batter on the starter and onion rings, burgers definitely a cut above in quality. Generous portions left 2/3 of the party unable to finish.

Meal was good. Tuna sandwich on warm bread with salad, served on a wooden floorboard type plate. And portion of chips.Plus cola and tea. There were 2 of us. Cost £22.50. Paid by card, cash also taken.Sat outside in beer garden. Under massive umbrella with heaters on.Staff polite and efficient.Atmosphere OK / normal. Staff wore masks. Everything clean. First visit there, I would go again.Child friendly, dog friendly.No negatives I can think of.We went for lunch. Visited on a Monday.

myself and the wife had lunch here today . The place is spotlessly clean. Staff very attentive . The food was fantastic . A great selection of lagers and real ales . A must visit for anyone visiting skipton .

Stopped here for lunch on the way to the lakes was covid friendly and the young lad was very pleasant and explained everything how the pub was run.We had fish and chips and leek and onion pie both were excellent and the fish is massive and well cooked thanks for the food and service would certainly stop again if in the area

Brilliant, called in for lunch, fish n chips & Fish Sandwich, both lovely( think the fish was a whale it was that big) Very well organised for corvid procedures, can’t recommend enough

Staff are so nice they make you so welcome! Food is really good with a good menu, we go back whenever in skipton

Popped in for a drink had to give details as required by Covid regulations. Social distancing was in place with hand sanitiser in several places. Exceptionally friendly staff and very attentive service, plus a good choice of beers.

We nipped for a quick drink but was very impressed how organised this place was (with covid regs). Someone took our details on arrival. We were seated (we chose outside) table service, friendly staff and one in one out in toilets which were lovely and clean.

Amazing visit, covid secure, excellent food and service, great value for money, can't wait to visit again.

We called here earlier this week at lunchtimefor a drink and we were made to feel so welcome we booked the only available table for a meal that night.The food was excellent as were the cask ales. I had the fish which was massive and as white as snow.The COVID measures in place were very good, plenty of sanitizer and our details were taken for track and trace purposes.Would highly recommend.

Had an absolutely fabulous meal here, the social distancing in place was great, the landlady and staff were brilliant, would recommend this place to everyone- 10 stars isn’t sufficient. Thankyou for a wonderful meal, we shared the fish sandwich and hubby had the Cajun and cheese melt which was delicious too. All the food looked brilliant and all cooked freshly.

We had a lunch with our two grandsons and although it was busy we were given a table outside . We had great food in a very welcoming atmosphere .The staff were friendly and efficient throughout

We have been here on two occasions this week, good Covid measures in place. We only had drinks both times, would have gone a third time but was not allowed in as they were full.

Still wary about going out to eat and drink but it couldn't have been more comfortable here. Proper precautions taken in regard of social distancing, hand sanitiser, and one way systems will make the most nervous of post-lockdown diners feel at ease. Oh, and the food and drink was really good too. Finally, very impressed by the commitment from the young people who were waiting on and running things. Despite the restrictions, the service was very quick and efficient and the staff were absolutely lovely. Really well done everyone and would definitely visit again.

Wow! Fantastic and great beer garden too, nicest burger I’ve had in a long time. Deffo worth a visit. Nice friendly staff too.

Went for lunch today and was very impressed by the choice of food on the menu plus the great service provided by the staff You need to book a table and they have very good covid safeguarding in place that works very well so it’s a great safe environment to dine in Definitely worth a visit

Absolutely love this pub and will recommend it to anyone I ever meet. I have gone to this pub many times and never once had a bad word to say the staff are always lovely and always ready to help when needed. The food is incredible and you will not regret coming to this pub and will not leave with an empty stomach !

All the staff are amazing and are super polite all the time. 100/10. The food is so good every time, personally my favourite place to go :)

Met with a couple of friends midweek for a meal. They are offering a reduced menu because of the situation but the food was delicious as ever, and very good portions. We had booked online but noticed other people just turning up. Very well organised with regards to COVID, you enter at the front and wait to be seated (indoors or outdoors). Table service by attentive staff. I'm glad it's open again!

Had light lunch here Thursday 18th. Both real ale and cheese/picke sandwich/chips were excellent. Service also both friendly and efficient. They have an extensive menu at really great prices. No doubt I shall return for an evening meal. Absolutely superb pub.

Called in for tea with my dad after recommendation from a friend and we were not disappointed. The staff were really inviting and friendly and the food was awesome, big portions, fresh and super tasty. We will be back.😊

Visited mid afternoon and couldn’t have chosen a better pub for a pit stop. Landlord and staff super friendly and the food (Charcuterie Platter) was lovely. A true gem. So nice to see a “proper pub” with individual character rather than the soulless chains that are taking over. Thanks guys. Loved your drunken antics stories of Kraków and hope you’ve all now fully recovered from your weekend away. We’ll be back for sure!

The locals say its one of the best pubs in the town, and would probably agree. Always looks busy and have had a few beers in there before. Luckily got a table on a busy Quiz night. So the service was good and kitchen got the food out in good time. If you want a hearty meal then this place is for you. My colleague had the Fish & Chips, and oh boy not one fish but two! All the food was excellent and that included the local beers. So this is a place I would go back to again!

We have been in skipton for the week on a break and have visited cock and bottle daily for a drink 10/10 , this evening being our last we decided to eat, lasagne and liver and onions. Open arrival all positive, the liver and onions was only tepid. Lasagne def homemade different I would say, 1 layer off lasagne heavy on the mozzerella.wouldnt have complained on this, but husband passed his around hs plate as not very warm not to mention piping hot as it should have been. Discretely told the staff the issue and said they would refund as said he couldn’t eat it. We waited 10 minutes no one came, so we left, make your own judgment. Sorry guys.

Called in for lunch. Lovely warm welcome and an open fire. Perfect for a very windy and cold February day. Food was delicious and served piping hot and well presented. Although we don't have a dog, it is dog friendly.

We had lunch here on a visit to Skipton. We received a warm welcome and the food was nothing short of fantastic. A lovely pub which I would highly recommend to anyone.

We ate here Sunday afternoon. Received a warm friendly welcome on arrival. The food was fantastic and plenty of it. A great place to call in for food or a drink.

Took advantage of the buy one get one free offer on mains during January and were very glad we did. Four of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Generous portions, friendly staff and a very welcoming wood burner.

Dined out this week to test the new menu and it was spectacular, my partner had the lamb and rosemary pie and I had a burger that was huge, it came with fries and onion rings I only just managed to finish it and with a 241 offer it was smiles all round, would definitely recommend it and can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

Had a lovely meal here. The pub doesn't look much from the outside but does some great food. Great taste and good portions.

Really good menu and a proper pub with a real fire. Portions enormous you will not eat it all. Lovley atmosphere and bar staff very friendly.

After our visit to the market, we needed food, so ended up here, and what a find.

Booked a table for our meal whilst staying in Skipton. Pub really busy but table ready and waiting. Three meals ordered directly to chef. What can I say fabulous as always. Brilliant night, great home cooked food would recommend. Thanks to a tentative chef, meals cooked to perfection.

I love a dog friendly pub and it was full of four legged friends who was all so very well behaved.

Myself and my boyfriend visited the Cock and Bottle earlier this month whilst on holiday. We both got the burger/drink for £10 deal. I can’t remember which one I got but it had two burger patties, chicken breast, and shredded pork on top with onion rings and fries. Amazing for £10!!! I couldn’t finish it, but I was warned. My boyfriend said his burger was the best he had ever had (and he is very serious about his burger rankings). Brilliant! Great service too.

Recently visited the Cock and Bottle and had a great meal, the service from the staff was also excellent. Will be returning!
