We came for a midweek meal and was not disappointed! The pub itself was cosy clean and welcoming. We were served by the lovely Karen and Holly who were friendly and polite. The food was tasty, fresh and there’s plenty of choice! We’ll definitely be back!

50 minute wait for food - not great with young kids. The food tasted strange. There was no gravy on the yorkshire pudding. The beef was tough and dried out and the turkey floppy and unappealing. The stuffing was missing from the adults roasts. Nobody came and asked if we were okay. Now back home hungry and 80 quid lighter. Really disappointing!

Booked in fairly last minute for a birthday meal with a family of 7 and the team were more than accommodating. The food was delicious, with our orders ranging from pizza to sea bass and lamb. The team got everything right and took the time to ensure it was all served together, drinks order taken straight away and a full table of starters/ mains that ticked everyone’s box. Unlike other restaurants, we weren’t rushed at all, had plenty of time to catch up while our server, Josh G, checked in making sure our drinks were always flowing. Josh really made our night, from his attentive service, to his great banter, he’s a real asset to the team and went out of his way to ensure we had a perfect night. A lovely evening for all, great food, great service and fantastic staff that really make the venue. Thanks all!

Everytime I am staying in the area and I'm wanting a substantial evening meal in a relaxing environment I will make my way to the Hare and Hounds secure in the knowledge that I will not be disappointed. My most recent visit over 2 days was no exception! Holly and Karen were on duty at the bar and quickly sorted me out with a nice quiet table out of the way of the main area. Having had one of those days that just "kept giving" it was exactly what I'd requested. Unless there's been a disaster of biblical proportions I will always go for the steak, medium rare with chips and all the trimmings. I've never regretted it yet. You can tell that it's a quality piece of meat, I'm betting locally sourced and always cooked to perfection. On the second night there, the serving staff were very busy so the chef brought my meal out himself when it was ready as he didn't want it to spoil. A man with pride in his work... Top marks all round!!! As Arnie says, "I'll be back", and as Status Quo sang, "Again and Again!"....

Not a local, (live 8 miles away) but a lovely country pub with very scenic outlook. Been coming here for a few years, not often but when weather is sunny, what a view. Visited recently but my wife likes to drink tonic water but was told only draught tonic available, no bottled tonic. This may sound a very trivial comment but is meant as advice to the management. If you drink gin and tonic you like to add the tonic from a bottle . This is the first time I have been to a public house to be told no bottles. The pub and atmosphere is brilliant but as I say this is a suggestion to the management.

We very rarely go out for a Sunday roast. I always think I can do it better, my fave the Shibden Mill Inn is a tad expensive when it's not a birthday & I expect chain pubs to be mediocre - stewed veg, tough meat, fake gravy etc. My partner's mum insisted we went out for Sunday Lunch the other week & booked The Nags Head, our nearest vintage inn. I was really pleasantly surprised! So much so that I booked our next nearest Vintage Inn, The Hare & Hounds, for our post YSP dinner 3 weeks later. It's really nice! The staff we encountered were very professional & accommodating. The food was hot, plentiful & delicious - I had a beef roast & lemon tart to finish, plus a couple of glasses of a very nice wine indeed. Actually couldn't fault it, no loud awful clientele, no rowdy kids on loud tablets, no cattle market feel. Yes I'm a massive snob - those things just make my nostrils flare & guarantee I'll never return to a place, but it was pleasant & reasonable. Thanks to Jacob too.

We booked a meal here after reading good reviews and we were not disappointed! The staff could not be more friendly or attentive and the bar/restaurant was so warm and welcoming as we arrived during cold, wet and windy weather. The beautiful old open fire was especially welcome. Everything we had was delicious- good quality home cooked food. We really can’t fault anything at all and will certainly be back. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer as we had to get to an event in Holmfirth. Next time we’ll stay for pudding and a few more drinks too!

Love the Fleece - go regularly for lunch. Food was excellent as always but new front of house man absolutely miserable. Was ignored for almost 5 minutes on entering - no ‘hello’ or ‘I’ll just be a minute’. No smiles, no chat. Staff here have always been exceptional so it was a bit of a shock. Didn’t let him spoil our lunch though.
