Crowtrees Inn in Craven

We got here at basically 6pm so not exactly late. We had tang days in advice and requested to book a table as there was 12 of us, told don't need to don't worry and we don't really do reservations. Got here and struggled to any seating for a party our size so has to seat across four tables. To then overhear a party kicking off who had reserved because someone had sat at there table (not us but this was happening near the bar). After having a holiday home with food left on the microwave, no clean bedding and hadn't been cleaned we were offered 6 free drinks by reception. Got here and the manager had no clue what we were on about. Then we ordered food to be told 30 min wait (it was much longer). Considering how long we waited every single dish was tepid warm at best. The 'buckets' are six very skinny goujions and not worth the money. None of the food came out together. Half of us hadn't eaten whole the other half have had nothing. Half the menu was already out of stock also. Overall it was a cluster to say the least. Clearly not bothered with customer service, don't care about customers and as I write this my husband and kids and half my family have finished eating whilst me and my dad have still not had any food. This was meant to be us going out for my brother's big 30th and to be honest it's been s**t. Thanks for ruining my bros 30th crow in.

We went twice. The pub itself is lovely and friendly staff when it comes to the food. First time we ordered the burger and chips it was lovely but advertised as coming with lettuce and tomato but had none. The second time we ordered a BBQ chicken pizza which was advertised as coming with a BBQ base but when it arrived there was no sign of BBQ on it at all very disappointed.

Nothing wrong with the food as such, it's just average. We'll happily go to Wetherspoons and pay £30 for 2 adult meaks, 1 child's, plus drinks. Here you'll pay more like £50 and it's of no better quality. Clearly microwaved etc. But they've got a captive audience. Heads up that the kids pasta bake is apparently discontinued but still on the menu.

Two Tier service here. If your a resident not only do you get a discount, you get served at the bar quicker! The staff , whilst friendly enough would serve the people they knew (owners) before serving visitors, on several occasions it was like I had my invisibility cloak on , staff would pass from one end of bar to the other serving people who were obviously known to them, whilst visitors were kept waiting! Leaves you with a bad feeling and feeling not welcome! Bit overpriced also!

I’d highly recommend visiting Crowtrees Inn. I found it to be a lovely pub with a welcoming atmosphere. The bar staff were professional and friendly, especially Caz and Gavin. They always had a smile on their faces and were always pleasant and polite. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I was very impressed with how fast the food was served!

Should have taken notice of earlier reviews we ordered our food and waited and waited finally asked where our order was waiting staff came said our order hadn’t reached the kitchen said it would be twenty more minutes,food came waiter said sorry food was barely warm would not recommend

Awful Experience! We visited with family whilst staying on the park. When we ordered we were told there was 30 minute wait which we didn’t mind. After a hour of waiting and being told it was on its way, The first meal out of the 6 we ordered came out an 1hr 30 mins later! Part of the meals missing because they had ran out! Kids Pasta bake was horrendous, congealed and inedible! Or in our 7 year olds words Absolutely Awful!!! The final meal came out 1hr 45 minutes later, again missing items! Tuna and cheese panini was soggy. My partner and I had to share a £16 chicken burger which was basically 2 Birds Eye microwave chicken fillets on a bun and a bit of rocket. No cheese, no coleslaw as stated on the menu! Disgusting! We received no apology from the Manager who just stormed off with his head down and left one of the ladies behind the bar to deal with us after we demanded refunds. Food is disgusting and overpriced! My brother and his family had the same issue and his ‘Gold Medal Winning’ Pie came out frozen after 90 minutes!! DO NOT waste your time or Money here!

We were staying at bowland fell caravan park and had the displeasure of eating here. We had 9 people wanting to eat and the bar manager was less than helpful. Very rude, very dismissive and upset a family member. The food was incredibly under par, toddler portions and all microwaved. The bar staff (bar the manager) were lovely. Approachable friendly and happy to help. Same can't be said for the waiting on staff. No interest in service no smiles no apologies for the food being wrong and did I mention the food was AWFUL! oh and no cutlery on the table or by the service station.

Went with Wife and Dog, the place is very dog and wife friendly. The food was lovely, we had Calamari and Steak and Ale pie. Over the visits we made subsequent to the meal we got to know the staff and really bonded with them and they are instrumental in creating a lovely, friendly atmosphere. The Head Chef, Sita, was lovely, friendly and a great chef, she came for a chat at the end of her shift. Her co pilot, Jack, was also a great chef and very friendly. Steve, the Bar Manager works hard to keep everything running smoothly. Front of house are Caz, Holly and Devon who all deserve a special mention as it can get really busy especially at the weekend, they were always polite and helpful, they all took a shine to our dog, black labrador Ripley, giving her treats from the bar. In fact, after a few days Ripley was actively pulling us towards the pub when we were walking her in the park grounds. To sum up, a lovely, recently renovated premises run by genuinely friendly and courteous staff who make a real difference to the atmosphere and we can't wait to return. Gerry and Ann Hitchen.....and Ripley.

The food is HORRIFIC like really really really bad. If you buy anything you'll feel like you've been robbed. The pizzas are all Chicago Town frozen pizzas and you're charged a fair amount for it. Everything is frozen and all of it is awful. The place looks great and has real potential but they need to find a chef not just someone capable of putting things into a microwave or oven. Go in to enjoy a drink but trust me when i say don't waste your money on the food, go to the old vicarage up the road

This is a lovely building with fantastic potential. For drinks it's good. Saturday evening meal, well let's see. The authentic sour dough pizza Margareta was akin but not nearly as good as a lidl deep pan pizza. £12.50. Kids burger served on a cold dry roll. The burger was so cold it hadn't even melted the standard (but expected) plastic cheese slice. My son enjoyed his kids fish and chips. The chargrilled chicken burger was served on a similar dry roll, a limp leaf of lettuce and 2 slices of tomato. The chicken was dry and some was so tough and hard it was inedible. Bacon chop with very dodgy mash and veg was passable,but not at £13.95. The kids desserts included in the £5.99 all in offer were charged for again. Now if you want to use cutlery don't set your expectations too high. This wonderful building and setting is failed by food that is off the back of a brake brothers lorry and even at that it's poorly presented and over priced. So many missed opportunities to make this an amazing eating and drinking establishment. £70 spent and left feeling robbed. This is a catering car crash.

Lovely pub which has recently been refurbished. Would highly recommend, food was lovely, good selection of drinks and friendly staff.

The bar staff were friendly and very welcoming, The place looks nice, that's all I can say nice about it. The food was awful. Gordon Ramsay would of used many words that I won't. I'm sure the menu says "ultimate burger".... Mine came with chips and burnt fat, my other halfs veggie burger was a very cheap frozen veggie burger in a bun, the chips are over seasoned before you even get them and when it says you get coleslaw and salad.... It doesn't. I gave this 2 stars because the lovely lass behind the bar made a great effort. Wasn't even that busy. But I can understand why.

Horrible atmosphere really clicky. No food being served although we weren’t Going to eat here due to the food reviews being so bad. Staff are miserable, shame really Because the building is stunning but it doesn’t even smell clean when you go in sticky tables needs a deep clean everywhere, Needs new managers/owners and a total re-vamp it’s lifeless.

Only small, but offers a variety of drinks and serves food at certain times (plus takeaway if you’re staying on site). Good outdoor seating area, excellent for dogs too (inside and out).

Grubby. Middle winter no fires lit. Unfriendly staff. No food until 5pm. No atmosphere at all. Really awful.

We booked a lovely weekend away as a family of four and cannot fault our accommodation one bit and friendliness of the host and surrounding people. We thought we would book the on-site restaurant as a treat for our final night, with chicken strips and halloumi starts - these were oven chicken nugget and mozzarella stick specials!! £5/6 each for frozen finest. For mains we ordered two burgers and two pizzas with having to send the pizzas back being barely melted cheese, and cold toppings. As sending back I heard the waiter say to the ‘chef’ “these aren’t cooked - apparently” in a sarcastic tone. When bringing them back out 10 minutes later (I only asked to grill the top a bit!) they didn’t look any different. I tried mine which still wasn’t piping hot?! To which we again asked for them to come cooked.. and my husband asked the waiter politely and to one side to not insult my request sarcastically again. We then asked the (to what I can assume was the) manager to come over to us, to be told to wait with one finger 👆🏻gesture! Then for him to come out and ask me, my husband and two children to leave as my husband had grabbed the waiter by the neck!! Bear in mind there were other tables in there and cctv 😂. Cannot believe the rude hospitality and quite frankly awful freezer food (told us the pizzas bases are frozen when we got there)!! the whole meal was £73 for a birds eye special Really really wouldn’t recommend.

Stayed for a few days in a caravan on the park and had a meal at the pub on-site. Reasonable priced and we had the steak pie which was homemade and absolutely delicious.

Large portions so no need to add extras all the staff were friendlly and helpful. Very relaxed and well spaced dining area.

A truly awful experience Went early Friday night with the family, overcooked halloumi and awful calamari were starters Main course of fish and chips were at best aldi basic range overcooked and a pukka pie with no meat We would have used the restaurant for afew nights but went elsewhere instead

Very disorganised. Did not understand table service for drinks but had to go to bar to order food. Ordered our food but did not ask where we were sitting so lots of staff wondering around with food and not knowing who had ordered it. After waiting nearly 90 minutes I asked how much longer for our food. My plate arrived with no cutlery to eat it with. It was stone cold and a very small portion. Staff apologised with varying reasons for delay. A free drink was given. Shame it was so appalling as was staying here for a week and would have used it for the duration of our stay but once was more than enough.

We had a family meal here which was very reasonably priced. (£32.50 for 3 adults and 1 child). The pub has a one-way system and hand gel stations throughout. The toilets are impeccably clean. These is a small menu to chose from consisting of burger, lasagna, curry, scampi etc. The children's meal was very nice £5 for chicken chunks (real chicken) chips, peas and a fruitshoot. The staff are helpful and welcoming. We had booked a table which I would recommend as it's quite small. If you were going to the pub just for a drink and the weather wasn't nice you may struggle for a seat as many of the tables appeared to be eating tables, whether these change later in the evening I am not sure. Our order got a little mixed up but we didn't mind as the food was nice and we aren't that fussy. Would recommend a visit if you are on the holiday park as it's a lovely little pub

We were impressed by the Covid Precautions taken at this restaurant. The lunch menu was rather limited but the food arrived well presented and well cooked.

Great building. But if you’re here for food not architecture, it’s best avoided. It’s on a nice-looking caravan/mobile home site. When we arrived it was empty; we wondered why it was empty on a Sunday lunch. We’d seen an ad on Facebook offering Sunday lunch with all the trimmings, and as we are local we thought we’d give it a try. Big mistake. This was no ordinary Sunday, it was National Yorkshire Pudding Day. When the food arrived there were no Yorkshire puddings on the plate. Also, the whole plate of food was heated up, over-cooked, and uneatable! Well I did eat the mash but there’s not much you can do to that to spoil it, and I was hungry.The chef came out and asked us how the food was. So we told him, and gave back our largely uneaten Sunday lunches. The manager (I think) also asked and we told him. Both said they were sorry and offered us a free drink. I was driving so refused mine.I can’t get my head around the fact that they apologised, took our dinners back, and didn’t offer a full refund. I would be totally ashamed to serve food like that. It explains why we were the only diners though....

Absolutely awful service and food. We rang earlier in the day to ask if the could accommodate a large party, 10 adults and 2 children which they said was fine. On turning up there was no food and they had ran out of most things even though the restaurant was empty. When are food arrived it was obvious it was done it a microwave only half of the food turned up after 60 minutes. My 3 year old didn’t even receive his meal and this should have been priority. When I asked the chef if his food was ready he just rolled his eyes as if it was a massive chore.. massively unprepared and it’s a shame as it could be a lovely pub if there were some real commitment to delivering excellent service which there obviously was not. We received a full refund without much resistance which goes to show that they know there are issues.

We came in here most evenings for a beer and also ate here. the pub is very nice and dog friendly. The food is good and there's a good selection of beers wine and spirits. David the manager is very accomodating.

We are staying at the Bowland Fell caravan park so this restaurant is nice and close for us. After a very tiring day visiting Lake Windermere we were almost too tired to eat so we decided to let someone else do the cooking and I’m so glad we did. The food was amazing. My husband had the beer battered fish and chips and declared it was the best he’d ever had. He even ate the homemade tartare sauce which he usually doesn’t like. I had a char grilled chicken salad which was delicious, a nice mix of salads and a generous portion of meat. The chef was so friendly and talked us through the way he does things. He sat us in a nice quiet area even though that meant more running about for him. I can’t fault the food or the service and highly recommend Crowtrees Inn.

We called in today after our long walk as we are staying at Bowland Fell. We needed refreshing as we had been out all day, it was lovely! Lovely coffee and soup which was delicious and then pudding for afters all next to the great log burner. Lovely pub, thank you!

We ate here numerous times during our short stay at Bowland fell! We hadn't planned on this but after our first visit being so good we then returned most days! The chef was most accommodating for one of our party that has a special diet and couldn't have been more helpful! Special mention to Claire and John who were so friendly and chatty- they made our visits even more enjoyable! Not only was the food superb it was also very reasonably priced! Cannot wait to return!!

This was our 2nd visit to The Crowtrees Inn in recent weeks, the first was a flying visit and a snack but we were impressed enough to book for an evening meal. The food was outstanding, the staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive, and even the chef, Chris, came out to ask if everything was OK, which is rare these days.We will be returning again soon and I can't recommend this place highly enough.

Visited the pub for a beer and some food last night and ended up returning on the following evening because its so great! We we're both surprised at the quality of the food considering its a pub out in the sticks bit we couldn't be more impressed. The staff are really friendly and we've had lovely conversations with them on both nights. I had the fish of the day (sea bass) and my partner the pie of the day (lamb and mint). Both dishes are of fine dining quality and we've paid more than double the price in the past for food of this standard. A shared starter and two mains came to £30 and we really couldn't fault anything

We called in for a beer and had a pint of the fabulous Boxer Blonde Ale, saw they had a restaurant so ordered Sunday Lunch and wow it was fantastic, Lamb was beautifully cooked with a great selection of vegetables. Large portions to boot. I would wholeheartedly recommend you visit and enjoy a Sunday lunch.

Pleasant atmosphere with nice staff especially in the bar. Restaurant a little pricey and not necessarily the type of food for families. The food we had was good but not particularly large bearing in mind the site is used by walkers and cyclists.

Went to stay at Bowland Fell Park from the 29th Dec to 5th Jan, had a couple of lovely meals in the pub along with a good few pints of real ale sat in front of the log burners, they have one in the main restaurant part and another in the smaller room.

Known now as Pipers at Bowland Fell, we decided, on such a beautiful New Years Day to take a drive out to the Fells... To be fair, this little gem takes a little finding, and is sittuated within a holiday park. It was well worth the effort. We lunched on a lite special menu but nevertheless enjoyed a rump steak, and my wife, Eggs Benedict. 3 excellent real ales were on offer, and I sampled one of my favourites, Boxer blonde... An excellent lunch in pleasant surroundings, and friendly company with the locals...

This pub was open from the Wednesday to the weekend I think and offered meals then. Good food choice, tasty, and attentive service.

We were staying on the caravan site and visited most nights for a drink, the beer is well kept and there is a good variety of drinks. On our final night we had food, I had the gourmet burger and it was amazing, it was the best burger I have had in a restaurant for a really long time. The staff are friendly and made us all feel welcome. Thank you.

Spent the week with 4 school families and had a brilliant time. The caravan site is neat and tidy with some great views. The pub is cosy and welcoming and has a mix of friendly staff at all times. The food is also great quality... As is the beer and gin!

We arrived on a mucky grey day after a friend had said the food was good. Clare showed us into a lovely room with a most welcoming log fire. After settling us down with a drink and the menus she explained which dishes were not available that day. No matter, there were plenty of things left from which to choose. I had crayfish salad dressed in an amazing sauce and my husband had soup which he also deemed excellent. I then had a proper homemade chicken and mushroom pie. It was superb. My husband had red snapper which was beautifully cooked and presented. We had a leisurely meal with no room for pud. A great pity. The place has had a recent makeover and is most attractive and in keeping with the beautiful area. They deserve to be more busy at lunch time.

Stayed on the site for 2 nights, first night got there late so had a takeaway burger from this pub, it turned out to be the best burger I've ever had. Second day got a lamb pie with mash which was out of this world. Lovely service, great food.

Spent a week at the static caravan park. Delightful spot in the Yorkshire Dales. This pub is an absolute gem. The landlord is out of this world. Excellent food! All food locally sourced. One of our patty was vegan. The landlord brought the chef out to see us and he made her a vegan meal from scratch! Good selection of drinks. The landlord Took us through the local ale selection and served us food personally. He was described to us by permanent residents as the "heart and sole" of the place. They aren't wrong. This is absolute must visit!

We were staying at a small campsite up the road and were a bit put off when we discovered this pub was in the middle of a caravan park. But it was much better than that made us expect in terms of food and beer, and friendly to humans and dogs. Although they had a number of vegetarian options they all seemed to feature cheese. I ended up with cheese ravioli, which had a good tomato-y sauce.

It was great to discover a proper pub in the grounds of Bowland Fell site where we were staying in a holiday caravan. Local real ales on tap and a restaurant attached. You can order and eat in the pub if you prefer which we did while watching the England semi final. I tried the marlin and the lamb rump which were beautifully cooked and presented but lacking in the veg department so no risk of being too full. Wife had gourmet burger and steak which come with the chunkiest chips I’ve ever seen and which clearly I had to sample. Mains range from about £10 to £18.

had a lovely meal very wholesome food was great to be able to take the dog with us.lovely friendly atmosphere food was very well presented all locally produced

The pub looks pretty good from the outside and is in a lovely area.

Lovely cosy pub, log fires. Food excellent especially lamb shank. Dave behind the bar was very friendly. Dogs allowed and graveyard bone treats for them too. limited food service presumably this improves over main seasons.

Went for a brunch last Saturday and really enjoyed it. All local food, yummy Blue Pig sausages, tasty mushrooms cooked in butter (the only way), all fresh and nicely presented. Will definitely go again - a bit out of the way but worth the visit - opening times a bit confusing as they seem to differ between Facebook, Google and their website and not sure whether to call it Crowtrees or Bowland Fell Restaurant - also the entrance was confusing as there was no clear sign for the restaurant and after trying 2 doors to the pub/restaurant which were locked, found our way through what seems to be the Park reception area but hopefully these small issues will be addressed and it certainly won't put me off visiting again!

Hidden gem, a little off the beaten track. Not far from Gisburn forest hub. We ate here twice and both times we were given a very warm welcome. There are several log fires to sit and warm up by and very family and dog friendly. We liked the menu and it was no trouble to split an adult portion for our children. Service was very good. Good selection of ales. Prices very reasonable £16.95 for a

Came here recently, the pub is clean with lots of character, plenty of choices on the bar and cheap prices. The food menu is brilliant with plenty of choice, also have a good GF and Vegetarian range. Food is fresh home-cooked and very tasty. The homemade sweets are worth a try too. Staff are welcoming and all round it's an excellent pub.

This Inn is located at the Bowland Fell caravan park. It is small and friendly and offers a very good menu at reasonable prices. You can sit/eat in the pub area where dogs are welcome or you can eat in the restaurant where dogs are not allowed - there is also a take away service. Good atmosphere and popular with the park guests/residents.

This is a must go to place in the area. It's quiet and in the middle of beautiful scenery however near to lots of places. The food is to die for the staff are friendly and it's a place of warm welcomes and care

We stumbled across Crowtrees Inn whilst out cycling. Its in the Bowland Fell holiday park which in itself is quite a pretty mobile home site. The pub is tastefully decorated and furnished and there is a nice bar. The pub seems to specialise in food...

We were staying on the caravan site and decided on the last night to eat in the Crowtrees Inn. We were not disappointed. Excellent food served by friendly staff, we chose to sit on the pub side rather than the restaurant side and it was...

Los fines de semana son un tiempo especial, y comer aquí aumenta, la comida es sana, sabrosa y siempre fresca. Simplemente pone los últimos toques para el fin de semana siempre tengo ganas de comer aquí.

Precioso pub mundo, fantástico para la comida, especialmente la tarta de queso y cebolla asados. a pesar de un domingo tan buenos y a un precio muy razonable. El personal es muy amable y servicial, me han recomendado este pub a un montón de amigos...

Estuvimos en el parque de caravanas durante una semana así que visitamos este pub dos veces en ese tiempo. La comida era buena y el personal muy amable. Vale la pena una visita!

It's a fabulous old pub on one side (we loved the little room at far end). The actual bar area is small but the beer is very good. The restaurant was a pleasant area although you have to back to the bar to get your drinks as they are separate businesses apparently. Food and service was good especially the home made ice creams! I had Sweet Basil....odd, but it works!

My husband, daughter, dog and I recently stayed at Bowland Fell Caravan Park. This pub is on site and wow, how impressed were we! The food was really lovely and not badly priced and the staff were lovely. It was really great to know that our dog was not just allowed in but was really welcome (and offered treats by the bar staff!). The only negative was the games room - a lot of the games were not working, pool table had balls missing etc. Wouldn't really cost a lot to fix and a must to keep the kids entertained, particularly if the weather isn't great. Wouldn't stop us paying a return visit though! Recommended.

We stayed at bowland fell park in a caravan to do some local sightseeing the pub had a good menu with lovely food. It was shut on Tuesday and Wednesday which is tricky when you are 5 miles from the next pub. Lovely pub with great staff just not open enough for a holiday location

This is an old inn next to a leisure park in the middle of beautiful countryside. Recently renovated it offers good food and drink at reasonable prices. Cheeky service with a smile but slow service at the bar.

we have a caravan here, but I have to say the food in the restaurant is just fantastic, always fresh and hot good choice and good value for money. The newly refurbished inn with it's roaring log fire is a welcome treat in the cold dark nights. Well worth a visit

We were staying in one of the ground floor apartments for a week and the Crowtrees Inn was the highlight of our stay. It was a shame that as it was out of season as the food was only on offer at the weekend.We had the Sunday Lunch which was delicious and we all had a different sweet which were also very good.The staff were very friendly and were good enough to plate up a meal for my mum who stayed in the flat as she felt a bit under the weather. She thoroughly enjoyed it and it really perked her up.I cannot praise the building enough, it was very homely, a real fire, a great bar man, who lives upstairs, he is very lucky.We were very well looked after.Although this is part of Bowland Fell Park it is open to the general public and I hope it gains a strong local clientele especially during the quitter winter months.It really deserves to prosper

Been a holiday home owner on this site for several months now and a frequent visitor to the Crowtrees Inn and Bowland restaurant, and can honestly say that I have always received good service and excellent food at excellent prices.My favourite menu items are the blue cheese mushroom bake with fresh local bread and the char-grilled Rib-eye steak with homemade chips and fresh Veg...Delicious! I love to dine at this restaurant and Chef Andy and Waitress Claire deserve special praise for making every visit flawless and as enjoyable as the last!Special thanks also to Dave the bar manager who always goes out of his way to welcome his customers and deliver excellent service. Much appreciation from my four legged friend for the biscuits too!Of course, everybody has their own opinions and perceptions of what makes good service and that is all good and well, Indeed I am a retail manager myself and strive to deliver excellence in everything I do at work. Its just disappointing that in this age of social media and internet review sites, that folk are quick to criticise and slow to offer credit when its due. With regards the park itself, the owners and management have been exceptional to deal with, so much so that I have just purchased a brand new caravan with them and look forward to many years enjoyment.

I would like to thank all the staff & management at Bowland Fell Park & Crowtrees Inn & the Restaurant team for all their hard work this season & making our stay on the park this year a great experience.

We have been member of this site for years and have spent many of evenings in the crow trees in with our family and friends. I must add that this is purely due to ease and convenience as the atmosphere is awful. The manager couldn't be any slower and doesn't crack a smile unless your part of the inn crowd. The new and improved refit has yes improved the look but inside its lifeless feels cold and the only entertainment is the bar lady who is lovely (Claire) the manager has no clu what he is doing nor does he even serve you the correct order due to deafness uninterest and rudeness. Obviously kept in a job as he's a friend of the new owner. And the new owners well that's a new story trying to change the site but not for the better! The site used to be a real community where now some new vans are rented out to holiday makers who cause trouble and drama. My advice to the crow trees, bring in some real talent some young blood who can bring in some life into the place someone who understand what people want . Ps some of the reviews below are left by staff .

My wife and I visited someone who was staying on the site and decide to have lunch before setting off home, there was a bit of a wait for the meal but when it came we knew why. The food was excellent, I had the Cumberland sausage and the wife had a sandwich, both came with proper home cooked chips and the onion gravy was gorgeous. Everything was fresh and excellent, whenever we are in the area we will eat here.

We visited the Inn whilst staying on site. This is a very friendly place although the Inn itself is not open but the restaurant / gamesroom next door has the bar.We were welcomed by the barstaff and also allowed to bring the dog in, the dog also got spoilt by barstaff and customers!Food is nice but limited to certain days. On a couple of occasions we had to wait for a table due to functions or reservations but staff did their best to get us in. The food is a long wait as it is all cooked fresh, but well worth the wait. If staying on site and not driving the local ales are worth a punt too :-)Staff seemed to be very busy but coped well.If visiting it may be worth reserving a table if you don't want to wait!

We stayed over for the night at Bowland park,and decided to try the Crowtrees Inn.The food was excellent and good value. All the staff were very pleasant and made us feel welcome.

We went here for Sunday lunch as we were staying near by. The food was reasonable and tasted great. Place was clean and staff were friendly. The kids menu is good and food was homemade. We also got take away pizza one night and it was lovely and very reasonable priced. Would definitely recommend this place.

Visited here last night as staying in the area. Don't let the fact that it is in a holiday park put you off as the food and service were wonderful. Nice selection of wine, real ales and the food was fresh, local and cooked to oder. Had the pork loin steak with brandy and peppercorn sauce with real mash and veg. Could not fault it and incredible value too. It looks from the board that they do a three course Sunday Lunch for fifteen pounds slo if the quality of my food was anything to go back, you should be in for a treat!I think the place we ate used to be the restaurant part of the old pub that was there but it looks like the old pubs is being refurbished and they have opened the restaurant up as the pub/dining area. Food is only served Thursday-Sunday which I assume is due to lack of activity in the week being a holiday home area and when most people are aroundOverall all though well worth a visit if you are in the area of Settle and Tosside

Things really have improved, please disregard any old reviews they must be completely ignored. Dave (mein host ) is a lovely friendly gent ,Doreen and Clare are so friendly and smiling all the time (even when rushed off there feet) they have a full time chef and he has really improved the menu, everything home cooked and various specials on the board the (very tasty the crowtrees chicken a must !! )

Good atmosphere, friendly staff, dog friendly and good food, albeit a limited menu but then again the season is coming to an end so not as busy.

The park used to be called Crowtrees but is now under new ownership, a lot of work as been done on the infrastructure of the park and plans are under way to improve Crowtrees inn.The Restaurant is being used as the pub till this is finished.The food on the menu uses all local produce.On the Wednesday i went to Fish & Chips night this was the best i have had for a long time would recommend trying it if you are in the area.

Four of us went for a meal here on Friday night, three of us had fish and chips one had gammon. Food was very good, bonus was real chips. Only problem was the food restaurant was only open at weekends. When you consider the pub in the village about a mile and a half away was closed, so was the pub in the next village which was about three miles away. Thus meaning if you wanted a meal in the week you would have to travel eight miles to Settle for a meal. So if you fancied a takeaway during the week, forget it. This must be an inconvenience for residents of the local area. There is a small cafe about a mile and a half away, but this closes early so it would have to be a meal before seven. Would have thought with a little more effort they could have opened all week and put on a bit of entertainment to draw in the locals as well as the holiday makers from the adjoining caravan park. The restaurant also has to double as the pub because the pub next door is closed for refurbishment and does not look as though it will open any time soon. As if said the food was good even if the menu was rather limited.

We chanced upon The Crowtrees Inn last night on the way home from a day out in Gisburn forest and what we experienced was utter chaos. The bar and restaurant area was very busy, a good sign we thought. How wrong we were. Our drinks and food order were eventually taken by a very friendly but clearly flustered barmaid - it seemed she was solely responsible for serving on the bar and waiting on the many tables. Having worked in the restaurant trade I had every sympathy for the young woman who, in the midst of the chaos was running from table to bar in an attempt to serve the throng of impatient customers. When the food came out it was to an ok standard, it certainly wasn't the worst I've ever eaten and it filled a hole. All in all I would say that Crowtrees is in desperate need of additional staff and to perhaps appreciate the admirable efforts of their existing (singular) member.

For the past few months there has been only one lady to run the bar with no help whatsoever. During her recent holiday, the pub just closed ! Since the other local pub has long since ceased to operate, this leaves the residents without a place to meet up and socialise. The gents toilet has been out of order for months now, but it appears that no effort has been made to have a plumber fix the problem (one needs rubber boots to enter the room !) Residents on the caravan park - now renamed the Bowland Fell Park - have always enjoyed the availability of food on site plus live entertainment on Saturday nights. Both of these facilities have now gone. The bus service to Settle has operated only during the day and is now reported to be ceasing completely within the next few weeks - what a fantastic business opportunity for the owners of the Bowland Fell - where else could a business be run with zero competition ?

The Carvery at the inn is fantastic as are the other choices of food on the menu. The landlord and his partner run the pub in an excellent way, making it fun for family, couple and individuals.Having visited many times through all seasons we are always made very welcome. The landlord and chef very obliging even serving food at really short notice, on time always hot and delicious. Staff overall are wonderful very friendly atmosphere.Simon the landlord is an asset to the whole of Crowtrees Park and he should get recognition from the owners for this. I hope he does!

Both Simon the Landlord and Sharon are an asset to the pub. Claire who works behind the bar and Perry as well as other staff are always very friendly and obliging. Seriously good food, fast service and value for money. The whole of Crowtrees Park deserves a medal. Ignore bad comments about staff made here, they are both sincere and welcoming. A********** I visit all the time with my wife and we are always made very welcome. The pub quiz and entertainment are great fun for the family.

Although we visit Crowtrees (site) a couple of times a month, our return visit to the Inn last week was in the first time for about six months, purely do to the fact that we wanted something local. Notice that the evening menu had reduced considerably from previous visit with a lot less choice. Management still appeared to be the same, as did the quiet atmosphere inside. Food was just edible and service was satisfactory. Appreciate that this isn’t (nor ever will be) a Michelin Star venue and of course the prices reflect that, however if you are after a warm country welcome and a hearty supper, served with fine drinks with pleasantries and a smile, we would probably recommend you go somewhere else. If anyone can honestly rate this Inn , over one or two stars in any of the categories, then you simply do not appreciate what fine dining actually constitutes and we recommend you get out more.

I live about a mile from Crowtrees inn, in the village of tosside. I regularly come to the pub for food or just a drink. Myself and my friends always receive a warm welcome from management and staff. Food is very reasonably priced and all home made by Simon the manager. Staff are always friendly and can't seem to do enough. I recommend Wednesday/Thursday evenings when residents and locals all meet up for a few games of darts in the "old bar". I would recommend a visit whether you are on holiday or live nearby. I feel the previous review is unfair as every effort is made to ensure you enjoy your evening

No welcome from the management, don't even acknowledge customers, completely unfriendly. Only seemed to be interested in the people from the local village of Tosside and not the people from the site to which it belongs. The Manager of the pub needs a reminder in good maners and how to talk politely to all of his customers. This coment does not apply to the site, even though there is room for improvement on the site itself there is a general feeling of willingness from the manager and staff and a warm friendly welcom.

Having visited here previously and having a mediocre meal (although beer almost always flat) I have to say that I won't be returning anytime soon. 6 of us arrived for a meal, and there were approximately 10 other people in there that had finished eating. We were greeted by the Chef/Landlord - Steve/Simon? who seemed to find it an effort to smile, and made us feel like he was doing us a big favour serving us our drinks.We were shown to our table by friendly waitress but that was only positive point. Food order came, with some dishes being incorrect. Was huffed at when told this to another waitress and she asked us exactly what it was we wanted her to do!! Not great Customer Service. When orders were corrected, it was disappointing food served. Entertainment started setting up while we were eating which ruined the atmosphere.All in all a terrible experience for a pub that could have so much potential. The owners always appear very rude with everything being a huge effort. This pub has so much potential if only the right people were running it. My advice would be save your money and book at The Old Vicarage in Tosside Village. They can't do enough for you and all food here is fresh and home cooked to order - with a smile.... something seriously lacking at Crowtrees Inn. If you are looking for good, hospitality and good food, go elsewhere.

Menu changed since last visit, and although slightly limited, the food is very good, freshly cooked and arrives nice and hot. Staff are always pleasant and friendly.

Pretty quiet when we arrived.Situated on a caravan site, but a well laid out pub, serving a variety of beers. A small selection of food on offer, basic pub food, but the steak and kidney pie was excellent and a very good portion.Also runs a good quiz on a Friday.

Can't rate this place high enough. We stayed in one of the beautiful apartments behind the Inn. Ate at the inn several times that week, all tasty meals demolished and enjoyed by my husband, myself and two kids. Service and staff lovely, always making us welcome and feel at home whenever we popped in!Can't wait to get back down and relax there again- also there's use of a swimming pool right opposite the inn. It's ideal to go for a dip just before dinner at the inn!

We were going to be "home alone" this Christmas so booked our lunch at the Crowtrees. The dining room looked stunning, but we enjoyed a pleasant drink in the bar before eating .The format was buffet style, and this suits us perfectly. We were able to put on our plates only the items we like and in the quantity to suit our appetite, but in the knowledge that, should we require more, we could make a second trip to the buffet. The staff were all very pleasant, but not overpowering - just waiting to attend to our needs. We have already booked our table for the St Valentine meal and look forward to meeting up again with good friends. The popularity of this establishment had been sadly eroded over the past months, but under this new management, Crowtrees is definitely on the up. Thank you for a great Christmas Lunch.

We went to crowtrees on christmas day, straight away we were greeted and seated with a free glass of wine till we were ready to dine. When shown to our table we could not believe how lovely the room looked, we thought we had gatecrashed a wedding. Every attempt was made to make our day special. The scallops were to die for, we had the duck which melted in your mouth then a strawberry shortcake stack to finish. The atmosphere was brilliant & the staff couldn`t do enough for us. We left feeling thoroughly satisfied. We were so impressed we went back the following sunday for a carvery lunch which was also excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone as I will definately be going back.

Went with the family for our Christmas meal, The dining room looked absolutely fantastic! Someone had clearly worked very hard in making it perfect! We weren't quite ready to eat when we arrived so we were shown to a seat to have a drink, free glass of wine went down VERY well. The meal was beautiful, this was our first Christmas eating out as a family and Simon and Sharon did bot disappoint! Look forward to returning soon!

We are reviewing this Inn and Restaurant from our experience over the New Year. First of all i need to saywe believe that this couple Sharon and Scott have taken over this establishment this year, but they are seriously lacking in hospitality, We visited the Inn most nights on our week stay, and didnt catch Scott once smiling, he didnt engage in any conversations with us at all, not the usual Landlord behaviour you usually cant get rid of them.!New Year, we paid £15 per adult and £10 a child for what was advertised as a Disco/Buffet, on our arrival we were the first there, the room was beautiful, Sharon had done a great job, a young man was fiddling with the disco (something he continued to do all night) speakers tweeked, microphone tweeked, shuffled music, this happened all night, no announcement to let us know that the entertainment originally booked had cancelled and this was Scott and Sharon's son,(so we were told the next day) making do! dont know what he needed to tweek the microphone for because it wasnt used once, the gaps between music were eerily silent, not helped by the fact that only 30 people attended (what did they know we didnt?). His choice of music was not good, then the food came. What there was was very nice, Salmon, Beef, Chicken curry, Rice, Chips and a small bowl of salad, Ok so now for the desserts???? Not even a mince pie, "I didnt think about desserts" i was told, Oh dear, 4 Grandchildren expecting a pudding, so off we went to the house we had rented and brought our own, not good. We had to organise the TV to go on and the countdown to New Year, we also brought our own fireworks that the other guests joined us outside the Restaurant, and thanked us for the entertainment. All through the evening, not once did Simon or Sharon come to talk to us or check if everthing was ok, as there were only a few guests they could have chatted to everyone, they just didnt seem bothered, we went to the bar for a drink after our food and no-one was behind the bar, they were sat at a table away from everone else eating the food. But as Louis Walsh says on the X Factor, "We made it our own" we had to because no effort was made by the people who organised it. Very poor, lets hope it was just their first year and can only get better.

The first thing is the address on TripAcvisor is not as listed it should be: Crowtrees Inn, Crowtrees Park, Tosside, BD23 4SD.While staying on Crowtrees Park had one of the best Sunday lunches in the Dales.Also sampled the Weekday meals which I found good value With large portions, all made with local produce 10/10.
