Oakley's Grill & Pizzeria in Craven

Went last night, great food very fresh and tasty & big portions.. nice friendly service well looked after. Definitely recommend here

A great night! Food was great, such a good range and very tasty. Lucy, Ben and the rest of the staff were a great laugh and made the evening!

A lovely place to meet friends with a fabulous atmosphere for an early evening catch up. The food was excellent; I had a veggie pizza which was delicious and my friends and sister had lasagne and pizza too. We all agreed that we would make it our new meet up place. The place was very clean and the tables all spaced out nicely andthe staff, in particular Lucy who was very attentive and looked after us really well, were great. Food and drinks all very reasonably priced. Looking forward to our next meet up.

Fantastic pizzeria with a good selection of American and Italian inspired fare. The pizzas are really good and well priced. Lucy our server was really attentive making sure we weren't left waiting longer than we wanted to be. Local so will be back.

Excellent service - friendly and welcoming. Vegan pizza was delicious. A very welcome treat after a busy day at Yarndale.

Wanted to visit as one of us has been before and enjoyed it. The pizzas were really tasty and the staff were friendly. The pizzas are expensive though compared to their take away prices, one we had was £6 difference. We’d expect to pay a couple of pound more to eat in but £6 is too much, especially when there’s a few of you it adds up. As such next time we’d do take away.

A very average restaurant which does not match the prices which are quite expensive for what you get Pasta slightly cold when arrived Very average starters, garlic bread arrived without the cheese as stated which was £10 The fish in the risotto was very clearly frozen and rubbery Not much interaction with the staff and very slow service to say this was a Wednesday evening Ordered cheesecake for dessert which was so small we all literally laughed out loud, it was also £8 which is ridiculous for the size. It literally arrived in a cupcake case and was gone in 3 bites Would not really recommend you can go to somewhere much cheaper for the same quality of food On the positive side the pizzas were lovely and they have good gluten free options

After reading the reviews I was a bit apprehensive, but fear not the food is excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The portions were more than adequate. Soft drinks were a bit expensive though. Can definitely recommend for food and the ambiance.. A shout out to 'Lucy' our server as well.

Called in and booked a table for 7pm that night. When we arrived we were shown upstairs to our table and it seemed like a very busy service. There were only 2 staff on as everyone else had called in sick . Ben and Lucy , the only 2 staff on that night kept a smile on their faces under very difficult circumstances. I have worked in hospitality for quite a while and if these two where my staff I would definitely give them a bonus or at least a few drinks for the way they kept a smile on their faces and treated customers with respect and great humour. Well done you two. I even heard them saying well done to the chef at the end of the night

We decided to try Oakley’s again with friends after not having been for years. Oakley’s used to be the place to go in Skipton (10 years ago ish) but after a couple of disappointing visits and finding out they got a food hygiene rating of 3, I stopped coming. When they had their food hygiene rating increased to 5 I thought it might be worth a try. It had been a few years since the last time. We were able to get a table as a walk in (which used to be unheard of) and were seated upstairs where it was reasonably full. The staff took our drinks order, I ordered a rum and coke which definitely didn’t have any rum in it when it arrived. I tried it compared to my husband’s, who had ordered the same, and could definitely taste the difference. When we finally managed to grab the staff again, we mentioned it and ordered some more drinks and some food. My next drink definitely did have the rum in it. I had the steak and Caesar, my husband and our friend ordered the calzone and my other friend ordered a burger, along with a few sides to share on the table. My steak wasn’t the best, I’ve had better from the supermarket. The calzones and burger were average/good. I tried some of the dough from my husband’s calzone dipped in the sauce and it was quite tasty. Service was slow but the staff were polite. Overall, we have ruled Oakley’s out now when eating in Skipton as there are plenty of other better options. A shame really!

We visited with friends gin a Saturday night. The food was good with large portion sizes and the room had a good atmosphere.

A wonderfully homely restaurant, lovely staff, brilliant food, superb service. A good range on the menu, and some enormous starters! I will come back next chance I get.

Ate here tonight and had a truly lovely meal, felt compelled to write a review. A family of 4, normally a couple of picky eaters but they loved it, tried new things and we will definitely be back! The negative reviews below surprise me as we had a lovely dining experience, the staff were attentive, really friendly and we had no issues with our meal. We had the halloumi fries, the loaded fries, the cajun prawns for starters... All of which were delicious. Followed by pizza, the mushroom and spinach fettuccine and the chorizo penne... All were lovely. Definitely don't go off the few bizarre negative reviews, so glad we decided to risk it, and took on board the other reviews from people who enjoyed their meal here. The prices I would say were about average for Skipton, the portions were massive 😂 I don't know how we ate it. What I loved, is on the kids menu were proper meals, rather than the usual nuggets, etc. Wish I had taken a pic of my lad's pizza, a proper, huge stone baked pepperoni pizza! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Loved this place. Fabulous service from start to finish and delicious food too. I had lasagne as my main and best I’ve had for a long time. Really nice atmosphere and so welcoming. Nice bottle of Prosecco to compliment the food. Highly recommend and will def return next time we are in the area.

My dad held his special birthday party at Oakley’s and it was excellent. All set up for us (40 people) upstairs, fabulous service (a big thank you to Pete, Lydia and Maddie!) and delicious food. The team were incredibly accommodating and thoughtful and the event was a tremendous success. Thanks again!

Lovely restaurant in Skipton. The food tastes great and is well presented. Really friendly staff. We ate in but they also do takeaway.

Great place for families or couples, we’ve done both! Pizzas clearly freshly made on site, great burgers and the steak salad is so good! Naz has been our waitress on three occasions and she is brilliant, regularly checking in, remembering snippets of conversation and even joining in with eye spy! Thanks Naz 🙂

Had a lovely family meal for my son’s birthday. Food is really hearty good value for money. Slight mishap with the order but Lucy and Becca couldn’t do enough for us and sorted it out straight away. Thanks

Went for a quick bite to eat with daughter. Food was fab. Staff could not be more helpful and the food was excellent as always. Highly recommend Oakleys!

It's been a while since our last visit. We had a great family meal at Oakley s. Holly and the staff were great. The food was fresh and obviously made on site. Would absolutely recommend

Absolutely beautiful burgers 😋. Good quality meat and very tasty. The only constructive feedback I would give is that their cheesecake, though very nice was also very small and expensive. I expected a decent slice for £7.95!! Instead I received a round, individual bun tin sized portion, definitely not enough to share and certainly not worth that price.

I want to thank everyone who helped from start to finish with organising this surprise party on saturday. Every single member of staff made it easy...from answering my many emails, helped set a menu for everyone to choose from. Every email was met with kindness, helpfulness and lots of patience haha. You helped accommodate my allergies and made sure i didn't feel like a nuisance. The whole team from waiting staff, kitchen staff, management were incredible on the day. Nothing was too much trouble and they were so friendly and helpful. They all had a smile on their faces. I honestly couldn't fault a single thing. I would 100% recommend you all to anyone who asks. Food was amazing, staff were too. Atmosphere was great. Not one problem at all. Thankyou for all your help making a wonderful evening out with friends and family PERFECT.

Oakley’s has become our regular Friday night dinner spot. Excellent, friendly service and really tasty food. Just a very pleasant, welcoming place to be.

Excellent service. Naz was super attentive and Seemed a real team player. All staff seemed well trained and very helpful. Will definitely be back.

Perfect evening. 16 in our group and not one complaint., could not fault either the service or food.

We went to celebrate a family birthday with 20 guests, Oakley’s provided us with our own room. The food was great and the staff were very attentive and supportive throughout the evening. Highly recommended

We were really dissapointed used to be regulars here before our little boy came along, maybe it's changed hands? I didn't eat my pasta dish it tasted dreadful, I did notify the waitress who said she could ask the kitchen to make a second one...

I asked for a Spinach and Prawn risotto and normally I only can find 6 to 8 prawns maximum but this restaurant have a good reputation on portions and I could confirm why!!! So many big prawns on my plate and so much spaghetti!!! My...

As a family whenever we've come to Skipton for Christmas we've always treated ourselves to a meal at oakleys. We've not been since before covid but we were all alarmed at the decline to our favourite restaurant. When we used to visit we used to...

The food is absolutely terrible. The pizza is undercooked, the calzone is just launched together and also undercooked. It’s pretty disappointing when the food is not the cheapest, quite sad that people are out spending their money on something that they will regard as a...

Right I'll start with the good. starter we shared spicy nachos, really tasty. mains well my mixed grill, the meat was spot on but the chips must have been out of a farmfood's or Iceland bag. why not do home cut and cooked?? then my...

We called in here and ordered a couple of burgers to collect 30 mins later. Ready when we came back and food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommended this place

Beware - All hot food dishes are served on COLD plates. Asked waitress about hot plates, who said its not what they do but "at least your food is steaming" .... the food didnt remain hot for long. Spoilt out meal.

Lovely food, great value. Staff are great lovely atmosphere, came with the family will definitely be returning. Would recommend!

12 of us had our tea here, we pre ordered our food and paid a deposit over the phone so the food came on time and was of a good quality. The reason for the 2 star review is due to the waiter and waitress...

Ordered The Veggie and The Classic Beef. They came absolutely bare. First time ever such a burger from a restaurant. Just dry and sad.

It’s all abit, average. It’s a really nice place, servers are lovely and polite. No bother there, they do the best job they can. Nice place to be and all that. But that’s where the positives stop. It’s just, nothing special for the price. £9...

Very good meal for all three of us choosing a pizza, seafood risotto and a goat’s cheese salad. All tasty and well presented. The service was a little disorganised with three people asking us for our drinks order but after they all was good. Interesting...

Waited 45 minutes for our meal to arrive then were told the order had not gone through. When it did come the chips were missing and when my friend asked for pepper that didn't come either. Our pizza and pasta meals were good and the...

First time visiting here and it was lovely! Made even better by our waitress becca she was lovely & deserves a pay rise !!

Amazing food, great service and a good atmosphere, wood definitely recommend it. Great choice of food. The Garlic breads are sooo good!

One of the best Pizzas I’ve ever had. ‘The Devil’ Service was brilliant & we got the early price for being there 5pm - 6pm Very nice place for families

A hidden gem in back alley of Skipton and it did not disappoint. From arrival the staff were very welcoming and service throughout was fantastic. The food was delicious and good quality, portion sizes were big! My wife was defeated and they boxed the remaining pizza for her; she is also dairy free and they have a dairy free/ vegan cheese for her. It wasn’t on the menu we had to ask (they are missing a trick there). They also offer gluten free options and good children’s menu. I had a calzone and it was extremely good!

Just called in early doors. We ordered olives and grilled breads. Served quickly by a really friendly helpful server. We also ordered 2 pizza ( an Hawaii and a mushroom). Again served promptly after a short interval. These were perfectly cooked rustic bases. Just the right thickness, with lean fresh ham, tasty pineapple and also mushroom and cheese all put together perfectly. A great experience, we will be going again worth the 35 mile trip there. We’ll be back!

Very disappointed when I first walked in I was totally ignored the chef rang the bell at least 3 times before the waitress came down . .I should have left before that . I said I would sit outside making the most of the dry weather . I ordered a pizza and a glass of wine . The wine was lovely and cold and a nice drop pizza ok too cheesy no basil to be seen as I was sat outside I was told that I had to pay before food arrived as I was sat outside really . I found this to be rude and Patronising will not be back

Hi, we met up for a family reunion , we went to sit down had a drink and ordered our meals , the starters came which where good, but unfortunately our main meals didn't. Two of our main meals came and the other 3 meals came about 10 minutes later, this ruined our family time as we all wanted to eat together. There was also a strong smell of food in the restaurant, they didn't put the extracter fans on , so I came away with food smelling all over my clothes. I wasn't happy 😕. Will I come back again No I WONT

Food was delicious! Portions were huge and couldn’t finish it all even though we tried our best! Think we went into food comas afterwards. Staff were great too really friendly.

54 of us attended on Sunday 16 July for our end of season football awards celebration and Oakley’s were absolutely fantastic! To bring out 45 meals in such quick time without any issues is incredible, and credit to all the team these, especially Naz who is a huge asset to Oakley’s.

Ordered over the phone for a takeaway delivery as we have ordered many times in the past and enjoyed the food. However we were incredibly disappointed and dissatisfied ok this occasion. The ‘burger meal’ arrived with 6 chips accompanying it which were undercooked and the burgers were both ridiculously dry with no flavour at all. The only good part of the order was the cheesy garlic bread but the rest was awful. Definitely not worth the hour and 45 minute wait and the almost £30 spent. Won’t be ordering again.

CHEESECAKE Last weekend I ordered a 2 tier cheesecake birthday cake for my husbands 40th birthday (plus 15 individual cheesecake shot glasses with a variety of toppings aimed at children). They were all an absolute hit, the double cheesecake was devoured, along with shots in minutes and folk even went for seconds right away. Would highly recommend oakleys cheesecake, easy enough to find on Facebook and contact made with owner was simple, she recommended which flavours might work better and happily had the order ready in time for pick up on Sat lunchtime. I will definitely use them again when staying in the area and would highly recommend this cheesecake to others, it was delicious. Thanks again so much Claire.

Myself and some friends visited this little place at the weekend. Food is spot and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

Excellent evening outstanding food and outstanding service from Naz an absolute star !would definitely recommend

I wanted a special cheesecake for an 18th birthday so I contacted Oakleys. I could pretty much have had any flavour that could possibly be made. I opted for a Reece’s peanut butter cup one and asked if they could make it a bit special...

First night in Skipton, let's celebrate moving here. We have no ways of making food ar home at the minute, so have to help hospitality thrive for a week or so. definitely not this place! we came after around 7.30, ordered two burgers. I have...

I booked a family meal for a birthday celebration. I contacted Oakley’s via email. Gaby got back to me really quickly. She was very helpful in helping me plan the celebration. The meal was lovely, big choice so something to suit all 11 of us....

A large party for a meal after a conference, the food was excellent and the service, especially Gaby

Arrived on a cold, wet, windy evening without booking. Waitress spent several minutes looking at her computer screen before saying yes come with me. I expected it to be packed inside, but it was nearly empty. The orders were taken quickly, and sadly, I felt...

Bit disappointing tonight. Looking forward to a meal here as last time was very nice but this time a bit hit and miss. The young ladies that served us were lovely nice and polite and friendly. Garlic bread with mozzarella and tomato very tasty. Lasagna...

Visited with 5 adults for my sons birthday. Had heard that Oakleys was a nice restaurant. The restaurant is situated in a quaint, quiet part of Skipton. Restaurant looked presentable and inviting. We ordered 3 starters. 2 were very nice, however the 3rd was horrendous...

A very special place to eat in, snugged in a quiet part of the town; close to the canal, which is ideal for a scenic access or a digestive walk. Oakley’s has a clear menu, Italian style and creative to meet all dietary types and...

Ordered for local delivery. Service from start to finish was brilliant and very efficient. My boyfriend has a gluten intolerance which Oakleys had no problem catering for. Food arrived at the time stated. Delivery driver was very polite and friendly and the food was absolutely...

Awesome waitress, lovely, helpful and polite. Lunchtime visit just after mid day, albeit mid week - empty. The first warning sign, and this seems a particularly British institution by the way, is sticky menus. That said, there seemed to be a good choice but not...

We used to love going here for a treat.. however last 2 times have been really disappointing… both our visits were on a Sunday evening… apart from a lovely young waitress who was faultless I honestly felt like the other staff saw us a nuisance...

A party of 7 of us booked to have our tea at Oakley's after a recommendation from a friend. We could not fault the service and the food was better then expected. Will definitely visit again.

We have visited Oakley's quite regularly over the years, but the last couple of times, with the latest visit especially, something has changed. Four of us (two couples) ordered a starter each, which were ok at best. Ordered two calzones with added extras, a Lasagne...

Been here on a few occasions and been disappointed but thought we would give it another try, supporting a local restaurant and all that.Wish I hadn't bothered wasting our money. Very expensive for the quality of the food. The restaurant itself has a disgusting dirty...

Starter and main course we're OK but not the best Italian food I've ever had. I had spaghetti bolognaise which was passable. Dessert was a different story. Adverts everywhere for their famous cheesecake . As this is one of my favourite desserts I was looking...

We had a group of 7 and the young lady taking care of us did a fantastic job. The rib appetizer and garlic cheese bread was great. The Lamb shank, pizzas and lasagnas were all well cooked, tasty and hot. We will definitely come back!

We came this evening with my husband and 3 children- the food was absolutely delicious, we haven't been for ages. Super large variety on the menu, beautiful food and great service even though they had a huge party upstairs. Mady who mostly served us was...

Delicious food for a works Christmas do! Oakleys accommodated us quite last minute and catered for a large group of us! Plenty of choice for drinks and food! Great service from a lovely girl called Naz, she really went the extra mile with us! 🙂

Great food again with good service. We haven't been for a while as we come to this restaurant when the Christmas market is on. I had pasta, chicken and chorizo, my husband had a burger and my son had king prawn and pasta. We will...

Had a fantastic post train journey feast at Bolton Abbey Station. Delicious. Full gastronomic delights ready for hungry bellies

We were so impressed with the delicious food and the quality of service that we decided to dine there on two days running! Why try anywhere else on our three day visit to Skipton? A big thank you to all the staff for making our...

A quick visit on the way home from York, many places were shut but we were recommended this restaurant by a local. A really great meal and service, we will certainly revisit.

One seriously has to wonder at the nature of some of the euphoric reviews here: 'the food was amazing' etc. Have TripAdvisor reviewers ceased to undertake any trips at all in order to gain experience of the travel and catering industries about which they're ostensibly...

A friend and I visited on Monday evening. Pre Lockdown the food was really good but after Monday we will never visit again - the Chicken Caesar salad consisted of cos lettuce drizzled with tiny amount of mayonnaise topped with two tough tiny chicken breasts...

Yes we are out again. Today it's Oakley's Skipton. Greeted at the door by friendly staff we were shown to a table window. I've been before and love their pizza fries . I had a steak and cheese pizza with the pizza fries . My...

The food was bland, and the service wasn’t amazing. Four of us went, and all 4 meals had zero flavour.

Chicken Parmigiana came out raw. They brought out another which we couldn’t eat as by this time I was put off. Told staff and all we got was sorry with nothing else!! It felt very cold reply with the comment there is nothing I can...

First time in keighley, this restaurant had good reviews. Booked online, arrived promptly, entrance looked like a takeaway service but seated upstairs. Waitresses very friendly and helpful. Clean and airy. My husband and I were seated on a thoroughfare with staff and customers rushing past,...

We enjoyed our evening here. The food was beautiful and good portion sizes. For starters we ordered two garlic breads, nachos and halloumi fries between 6 of us. It was a lot. My sister and I ordered a pizza and a pasta and asked for...

The staff were very welcoming and the food was great. Our waitress, Mady, was really friendly and attentive. Decor was pretty and the place has a chilled vibe about it. Food was lovely - portions are generous!!

We stumbled across this lovely little restaurant whilst on a narrowboat holiday on the leeds liverpool canal. It is dog friendly on the ground floor and outside. We were so impressed with the food, atmosphere and service that we booked again for the following night....
