The Board Inn in East Riding of Yorkshire

My husband loves this pub and has made it his local whilst on holiday. We go most days for a couple of pints then back to our caravan. On Friday we had dinner there. It’s very busy pub but the man serving us was friendly and attentive. The food was lovely my husband had the steak he said it was great I had the vegetarian pizza with added jalapeños. I also ordered onion rings that I definitely did not need once I saw the size of the pizza. Food is ample portions. But this hasn’t meant losing its taste or presentation. We had a lovely evening chatting to the man serving us who was from Bow in London. Nice reminiscing with him. Thankyou for being a warm friendly pub. With good food, good staff and good coffee”s as well as a very excellent stocked bar. Well worth a visit.

We were staying in Skipsea so visited the Board Inn every night. It's dog friendly. The staff were welcoming, the regulars were friendly, the food and beer excellent. Well worth a visit. We look forward to going back next time

Been coming to the Board inn many many years, a quaint little village pub/restaurant with lots of character and very nice real ale, the Wainwrights is a great real ale and the Hobgoblin is divine, me and my wife had the steak pie and that’s where they lost a star, firstly the good points, homemade chips delicious, gravy tasty, garden peas tasted cheap need to change to petite pois, mushy peas divine, the pie was nearly there, meat was lean but lacking in taste, pastry was a little too thin, get the pie spot on and this pub would definitely be my favourite, the staff are very friendly and attentive especially the bar manager Paul , always friendly and helpful

Rude reception from what I assume was the manager (a guy dressed in a blue uniform t-shirt). If you’re a passing tourist, this place is not for you as the manager looks you up and down like something they have just stepped in; presumably because you’re not a local so he isn’t as inclined to be polite. We tried to order some lunchtime food at around 14:30hrs after having reviewed the website and seeing it expressed “Food served ALL DAY”. When going to the restaurant area to order this, the ‘manager’ rolled his eyes at me, checked his watch and informed one of his servers “it’s half past 2 so no.” The young server he communicated with rather than me directly, informed me that the kitchen closes at half past 2 so only sandwiches can be ordered. Nowhere was there a sign to say sandwiches were served all day as opposed to the full menu. Similarly, this was not expressed on the website and merely stated food, one assuming would be the full menu. Furthermore, the manager had ample opportunity to inform me of this when he saw me sit down and look at the menu when he was tending to one of his so called regulars. I might have been inclined to have purchased a sandwich from the establishment had it not been for the managers reception towards me causing a negative atmosphere and making me feel utterly out of place in the pub. Would not recommend this place if you are passing the area and not a local as it’s clear you’ll be treated differently and provided with attitude, filthy looks and be made to feel out of place.

The pub of can’t do’s with below average food. Asked to play darts before our meal arrived only to be told by the inept staff you can’t do that in the dining room. Asked why. The can’t do that staff at the inept establishment said because there were bookings. I obviously said I’d stop if anyone sat next to the dart board. No one came could have had several games but could not as dealing with can’t do that foolish staff. Asked for fish chips garden peas and a side portion of scampi. You can’t do that so said the board inn staff you have to pay for a full or bite sized meal with more chips and garden peas. Like I said CANT DO STAFF. They don’t comprehend the difference between a steak pie and steak pie crust. Poor food. Several miles down the road is a place called Atwick with a pub called the black horse. They are a can do pub can play darts in dining room when no one near dart board, can get a potion of scampi for a starter price with magic n meal and comprehend the difference between a pie and pie crust. Food and service far better. AVOID THE BOARD INN at Skipsea at all,costs and like the plague

Booked online. Needn’t have bothered as we were the only ones in the restaurant - therefore no atmosphere. Very disappointed with the food. Steak was very fatty/chewy - didn’t appear to be a rump cut at all - more like sirloin. Chips were sweet and over cooked (quite greasy and tasted a bit fishy). I swapped my chips out for a tiny basic. The young lad that served us was lovely. He did say the chef offered to cook new steaks but we were on a time schedule as had to leave our accommodation, so couldn’t take up this option. The pub struggled with their Internet so said we could only pay by cash which was not an option for us as we did not have enough cash. The helpful young lad advised us to walked to the post office to get cash - which we did, but their machine (which charges you to withdraw) was out of order and the desk was closed for lunch. Walked back to the pub and explained but also mentioned again our disappointment with the meal. Came to an agreement to pay half - which we had in cash. So disappointed with the meal as it was the last meal of our holiday and one we’d looked forward to.

called at the pub a few years ago and loved the place from the food , ale and atmosphere , oh how times have changed , in my opinion too many pepole stay at the bar area making not only access to the bar but to other parts of the pub hindered , onto the food , my partner ordered lasagne which she described as average , i ordered the braised steak with mash and gravy , i assume the mash was microwaved mash , steak a tad chewy in my opinion ,shame

Very dissapointed, booked for fathers day meal family of 6 adults plus 1 dog, we were seated at tables for 4 people so split in to separate tables in a busy corridor with very little space ( the pub should advise of this beforehand when booking). Food overall was nice & staff friendly. We would reccomend the pub needs to re-think where to comfortably accomodate people with dogs.

Passing through the village so stopped for lunch. Lovely little pub, staff very friendly and the food was really nice. Good selection on the menu and all home cooked food. We all really enjoyed our meal, pub is dog friendly too

We are staying locally in an airbnb and this was our local. We have been several times and it is always warm and welcoming. Food was lovely, hot and fresh. Very dog friendly. I lost my bracelet and messaged the pub and they found it and let me know. I am really grateful for that and how quickly they responded. I would definitely recommend a visit here.

We stayed at Skipsea Sands Holiday park around the corner and came for a drink. It was on a Saturday night and the pub was quite empty. There were only locals, no tourists except us around. We enjoyed our beer and snakebite blackcurrant.

Located on Back Street, Skipsea, this is a traditional pub with free car park. We had a lovely Sunday lunch with friends.

We were stopping nearby and fancied a Sunday Lunch so pre booked for 3pm, what a disaster, one of the party is gluten free and had the gluten free nut roast option along with another person who ordered the nut roast but stated they didn't need gluten free, when they came both meals had yorkshire puddings on and the waitress didn't know which was supposed to be the gluten free one, she says she didn't want to ask the chef because he was 'in a bad mood' I have a gluten intolerance but someone who had a seriously allergy would not want to eat here !! the rest of the food was very average, cold carrots that were probably left over from the carvery and not even warmed up, frozen sweetcorn, and parsnips and roast potatoes that tasted like they were cooked in dripping even though three of our meals were vegetarian options. A couple of the waitresses were very apologetic and very nice, but overall very disappointing after looking forward to it.

Having visited for a few beers the evening before we saw food being served then so decided to boom a table for the following evening.Friendly staff always helps and the food did not disappoint. It also let to a chat about the local source of the meat which is a butcher a couple of miles away! I am writing this review as we sit outside whilst my wife and friends buy up the shop!! Lovely pub and great food and heartily recommended.

What a lovely friendly village pub. Really nice atmosphere and staff were really friendly. We had the light lunch, because one of is is an OAP and wouldn't eat a large lunch. The light bite was enormous and much bigger than you would expect. Really good price. There were a good selection of beers too. Look forward to visiting in the summer and using the lovely beer garden. Highly recommend 👌

We came here a family of three. We were greeted when arrived made very welcome. He took our orders and the portion size were very good, and very reasonable price. This is a charming village pub and has ample car parking at the rear of the property.

We thought we’d try this place out but I doubt we’ll rush back. The food was poor/mediocre at best, the staff weren’t very friendly or welcoming and customer service definitely isn’t high on their priority list. There are far better places in the local area for sure.

There is car parking at this location and it is a short walk into the pub. The pub is , as you would expect from a small town, very rustic. There is outside dining space and several rooms inside. Some feel more like a bar and some more like a restaurant. There appeared to be another area inside which was quite large but had nobody in it. The toilets aren’t the last word in luxury. They are quite dated and need a thorough clean. Despite it being busy, we didn’t have to wait long to be served or get our food. The food was reasonably priced for what we had. We had the steak pie from the light bites menu, the haddock and chips, onion rings, dirty fries and an egg mayo ciabatta. The portions were huge and we ended up having to some’Of the food to go. They were happy to do this for us. The staff were attentive and friendly. We would definitely eat here again and probably will every time we holiday in the area.

The food was spot on. I had surf and turf, my partner had the rump and both were cooked to perfection, as good as any steakhouse we've visited. The chips were tasty and everything came out piping hot. The staff were friendly and accommodated for my french bulldog too. Ten out of ten.

Had a little walk into the village from the caravan site down the road for a couple drinks and snacks.. Staff were friendly and welcoming, food was lovely (dirty fries & onion rings) .. Good value for money! Would definately recommend and return ourselves if we stayed close by again!

We attended thiS pub tonight and very nearly walked out due to the attitude of a man named Paul behind the bar, he was downright rude to me when I tried to order food asking me why I hadn't booked? at 18.00 on a weds night I really didn't think I needed to!!! And it really wasn't busy. He begrudgingly served us food then demanded we put our drinks on the bill we explained we had already paid for them when we served by a lovely man called Steve, he was so rude another customer actually commented on it, apparently I am not the first person to complain about him and actually we came a few months previously and he was rude then. I personally don't think he should be in a public facing role he is very detrimental to the business, the food was lovely and the pubs lovely but he is letting you down.

This is just an ordinary village pub, with a garden. As it was within walking distance of our holiday accommodation we gave it a try. I rate myself a bit as a cook, and I can tell you that steak pie and chips is brilliant, can’t comment on any other food but that is well worth the money and definitely home made.

I was down in Skipsea with my mum, auntie and uncle this week, staying at one of the local caravan parks, after a night of eating at the park and a visit to The Black Horse in Atwick we decided to try The Board Inn. We loved it, service was superb, food was lovely, it's well priced. I'd recommend it to anyone staying in the area or just passing through. The only downside was when I first discovered it it was when I was looking for a pint on the Tuesday, unfortunately it closes all day on a Tuesday lol can't win them all! Great place in my opinion or as the title suggests, a hidden gem.

This is the first place we passed on Friday around 4pm on our way to our campsite so we thought we’d try our luck and get some food as we new there was nothing where was staying we walked in and there was only one table with people on so we asked if we could sit the girl took longer than necessary to decide if we could was fully expecting her to say no wish she had since the food was awful my daughter didn’t touch hers as all her chips had black bits your meant to cut out of potatoes and she didn’t like the sausages she ended up with my chips which where different to hers but not great either I had lasagna which was dry as a bone and looked to have plastic cheese on top and tasted like it was made weeks ago, while we was there only 2 other tables sat down so what she made us wait for we’ve no idea.

We came here for a meal whilst staying at Skipsea Sands and absolutely loved it from the moment we walked in.The staff were super lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much for themThe food was really tasty, especially the lemon merangue roulade, my gosh it was divineeeee.I would happily visit here again anytime thank you!

Visited while on a short break away in skipsea. Lots of choice on the menu although they had run out of some food due to how busy they were but the waitress was very apologetic about this. Food was very nice, staff were very friendly and were clearly rushed off their feet. Will visit again if we are back in the area.

Booked a table for 4 adults and a baby for Sunday lunch. Service a little on the slow side. Unfortunately was sat at a table where a buzzer was constantly going on overhead. Food was bland and mediocre. Yorkshire puddings were a disaster. My daughter and I left most of our food, both hubbies were starving so ate most of theirs but they did say they were extremely disappointed. Didn't help that before our meal arrived that 2 tables close by were complaining that they could not tell whether they were eating pork, beef or turkey, that the cauliflower cheese was stone cold and the only nice thing on the plate was the roast potatoes. I have to admit they were right. I never normally complain even if the food was not up to standard but I felt the need to do so today. If they are not informed of their bland and cold food they cannot do anything about it. Hopefully it will improve in the future but I will not be going back.

Called at the Board Inn as we were staying locally the Saturday before the lifting of lockdown to go indoors. Beer garden is big, and sheltered with good covid measures. Staff were friendly and joined in with our banter and jokes making for a very relaxed atmosphere. The drinks were all good and the food very tasty and well portioned. Only real downside is poor phone signal so downloading the app was painfully slow and on our visit the card machine was down so cash only but this seemed to be more an area wide issue as the card machine at the nearby post office was also temperamental on the day.

Whilst staying locally we enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch in the marquee here. Hubby had roast pork, I had steak in ale pie. Really enjoyed it. Lovely friendly service too. We’ll be back next time!

Thw staff were friendly and helpful but was too cold. Needs outside heaters would of stayed longer if been warmer. The tent needs heaters too so food stats warmer for longer.

We went last night, started to get cold so asked if we could move into the tent, the kind staff said we could, but what is needed is garden heaters in there because it was very cold, would stay longer if it was warmer.

excellent mash! proper yorkshire dishes, very good portion size. comfortable surroundings, inside and out, nice historical photos and maps of local area of interest.

Like the last reviewer, we too visited this pub for food twice on our holiday. We too had a great meal on both occasions. The steak & ale pie was delicious and the sausages I had on our second visit were top quality. The poor chap was dashing around looking after too many tables!Covid measures were rightly in place with sanitiser and the NHS QR code evident on arrival. Customers and staff all complied.There is only one road to and from Skipsea Sands caravan park (which is about one mile from the village) and it passes within 50 yds of this pub.We didn't eat at the caravan park but surely their food cannot compare to the meals at this place.

We visited this pub for food twice on our holiday. We had a great meal on both occasions. Both my husband and son really enjoyed their meals. The gluten free food I had was very good and although not all the menu was available on the days I went, there was still was lots to choose from (this is rare for gluten free!). The staff were polite and helpful, the pub had a nice atmosphere. We would definitely visit again if we return to the area.

Was greeted by a young lad who was welcoming polite and helpful.We had a table booked for 3 of us we settled down for a drink, noticing the sign saying max 2hrs for a table booking we asked the lad if it was ok to have a few drinks before ordering food as we were not so hungry at this time and we would happily move into the bar area .Then things started to take a bit of a strange turn ,the older thin gentleman can over with his order book in quite a strange manner asking us for our food order which we explained we weren't ready 10 mins later the same guy come back again asking us for our food order then telling us we would only had the table for 2 hours ,we again didn't order he proceeded to clean the table in a manner of Basil Fawlty it all become rather bizarre and made is feel uneasy.The restaurant was only half full and we understand the pub has rules Anyway we did order food for our lad who thoroughly enjoyed his meal We did book for a Sunday lunch but decided to cancel unfortunately because I imagine the food would have been excellent.

we are a family of 7 so rang and booked 2 tables which they agreed to ,asked us to arrive separately which we did,on arrival the young man stood at the door like a club bouncer,very intimidating and got a bad attitude just said your tables straight ahead,went up to resturant and waited 5 mins before being told which table we were seated at,we had table of 3 and one for 4 after being seated the bouncer came up and said we wernt sat far enough away from each other but left us ware we were,food was ordered which was average one of my family asked for a side order of chips with lasagne and was refused even though chips were being served as my son had fish and chips, during the meal a family with a small child,who was crying asked if there was any availability to which the bouncer said no he then came into resturant area bragging there was no way he was letting a family in with a crying child no way was that happening at this point it was 1 30pm and only approx 8 more customers other than my family, i was disgusted the young girl and older guy serving were lovely the young guy spoilt it after we left my daughter said he was being very cocky with her when she arrived,the young man is obviously not bothered about the job or its customers

Visited twice this week as we were visiting family for the week. Super friendly service. Staff were attentive without being over the top. The food was delicious and good portions.Lots of variety on the menu ,so all of our party of 5 struggled to decide. We enjoyed our visit on Monday evening so much we went back on Sunday.

Another really good lunch at the Board. Our regular go-to lunch spot as we can take the pup with us! Sadly it was quite busy this weekend and we were left a long while before being served and also for the food itself to arrive. Otherwise as good as always!

Booked a table last minute so pleased there was a free table. Tables were spotless and well spaced, staff very friendly and efficient.We weren’t very hungry so ordered a starter each- pate and toast and deep fried breaded Brie. Also enjoyed a Thatchers Gold each. The food was very well presented and very enjoyable, likewise the Lemon Meringue Roulade.Be more than happy to call in again when we are back in the area.Definitely worth a visit

We were staying in Ulrome and this was the nearest pub so decided to give it a try. We were glad we did.Our first visit was for Sunday 'lunch'. Although we arrived in the evening they still had both beef and pork available. Most of us decided to have beef and when it arrived there was plenty on the plate. Everything tasted great with a good sized yorkshire.We all enjoyed our meal and decided to return for Wednesday curry night. There's a choice of four different curries and three different meats or veg. I had the Balti and the others had the Butter Chicken along with poppadoms and naans. It was all very tasty with just the right amount of spice.There was also a Board ale on that night which was excellent.The only issue we had was the fact we had dogs and there is very limited seating inside if your eating. Only two tables of two. You can take dogs into the bar, but can't eat there.Other than that we throughly enjoyed our visits and would be happy to return if we're staying nearby again.

This is one of my favourite pub restaurants in the uk, my family visited (8 of us) las week and yesterday just me and my wife, no disappointments at all, food was homemade and delicious, the service can be a little slow but I think that’s due to this awful virus, I will definitely be back

What a wonderful experience! We pre-booked by email the week before and got a very fast and polite response. We were greeted on arrival and then were asked to sanitise always a good sign. Then showed to a very nice table by a sunny window. Tables were all nicely distanced and we were provided with disposable menus and a very nice waitress took our drinks orders. Our meals followed, I had beef and hubby had pork, all came with lovely fresh vegetables. I have to say that the cauliflower cheese was one of the best I have ever had! Huge home made yorkies and very tender meat. Gravy was amazing also. The restaurant was immaculate and at the same time very homely and comfortable. We will definitely return, thank you so much for a lovely afternoon !

we were staying at skipsea Holiday Park just round the corner and the food wasn't the best. So tried last minute here and weren't disappointed!They managed to book in 6 of us at the last minute and were so friendly and helpful. One way system with hand sanitisers on entrance. Food was beautiful and they were very accommodating with my picky teenager! The lady who served us was lovely and couldn't do enough for us, we felt so welcome. Lovely atmosphere, great food and spacious parking round the back :D Will defo come back if we are in the area again.

We booked a table for 2 with our dog last minute. Luckily they accommodated us. One way in one way out sanitizer on hand which is now standard. Booked in by a lovely lady who was very customer friendly. Social distance with the tables. We were shown to our table which was in the corridor of the pub because we had a dig with us which was fine. The food we received was lovely. I had a prawn cocktail for starters and beef and ale pie with chips gravy which was on the lighter menu. Yummy. We were staying at Skipsea Sands.Can't recommend this pub enough. See you next year!! Big thank you to all the staff.

Some of the reviews for the Board Inn are ridiculous! Don't listen to them.We booked a table for 2 for 5pm. Plenty of parking. The lovely lady on the host stand went to see where we were seated. The restaurant is beautiful and rustic. The guy on the bar and who was looking after the restaurant on his own was amazing! Very welcoming. Took our drink orders: diet coke and a pint of ruddles. Safe to say he knows how to pull a pint. We ordered steak and ale pie and new york chicken. They were so nice. Compliments to the chef! We managed to squeeze in pudding. Sponge pudding with ice cream and salted caramel sundae. Huge portions and so tasty! Was shocked when the bill came. Was expecting to pay a lot more. Thank you for a wonderful experience. P.s. your bar man needs a raise

Great Pub, Fantastic Food, lovely Yorkshire welcome. Very nice place great experience and will be back this weekend.

Had a delicious lunch with the family we were made very welcome quick service from the staff would visit again if in the area

We had booked a table for 7.15pm for 3 people. I rang earlier to ask if we could come earlier as we wanted to watch the football to which we were told no problem. We walked over a mile to the pub so we didn’t have to drive, when we walked in and asked for our table we were told there was none free. Someone then left and we were offered a table not been able to view the television. I do understand the current issues around social distancing etc but don’t promise something if you can’t. We were offered a free round for the inconvenience but we felt uncomfortable to stay. I was given a number to call a taxi which would have cost a fair amount to get back so I was left with no option but to walk, just missing the heavy rainfall. I feel the service was very very poor.

First time we've eaten here for months due to lockdown, but we weren't disappointed. Locally sourced steak was cooked to perfection and delicious. Keep up the good work!

We have been on east coast for years. Was always warned off The Board Inn. However seeing new positive reviews thought we’d try it out. Booked for 3.30pm. In an empty restaurant we we placed next to a draughty door. So I asked if we could move to a more airy, light table. They obliged. Had our drinks order taken which was slightly wrong (there was only 4 of us!). Ordered our food. Asked for young daughter’s food to come out ASAP as she has autism. Starter came after 25 mins. After an hour we asked what was going on. Embarrassed waitress said she didn’t realised we’d finished 1 single garlic bread to share. The 3 mains came. Elder daughter’s burger was gorgeous! We ordered a medium rare, and medium steak. Then they arrived......They were certainly not cooked to our requirements. Not sure if a shoemaker wants their products back. Along with a cold steak sauce??My flip flop would have tasted better. We couldn’t eat them. Just really, really disappointed. After waiting as long as we did it just wasn’t acceptable. Then we went back to our caravan and couldn’t go anywhere else to eat. Up your game Board Inn!!!!

Rang the pub on the off chance a table for 4 people was available as other places were unable to accommodate. We were pleasantly surprised that the Board Inn could if we could get there in 40 minutes. What a great find, really good food and great service. Excellent menu selection and food was well cooked and good portions. We felt secure and relaxed as all COVID protection was enforced. Definitely gets my vote for a revisit next time we are down that way. Thank you for fitting us in and the warm welcome.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Lovely beer garden and excellent rump steak. Would definitely recommend a visit.

We went here for a drink , sat in the garden which has many table with umbrellas. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The food looks good although we didn't eat. Plenty of parking available.

All very Covid safe huge umbrellas in case of rain. First time eating out in months. Nice pub food. Thank you.

8 of us 6 adults and 2 children, booked a table for a meal on Sunday afternoon and it was very poor. We mainly ordered the Sunday roast but the vegetables must have been frozen as even the children couldn't eat theirs. If it was a fiver then fair enough but it was £9.50p.The lager was good but the food was diabolical. I had to laugh at the glass collector coming around blowing cigarette smoke over us, this may have been a one off but we wouldn't return.

I’ve been going to this pub ever since I can remember as a kid while we’ve been at various caravan sites in the area, and it is much better now than I remember it back then. We visited over the weekend for some lunch and it was lovely. Both had the hot beef sandwiches and it came with the most amazing homemade chips. We also came for a roast last year and that was equally good. Staff are friendly and helpful, also put a lot of effort into making things safe for covid. Large beer garden to the rear for a nice summers day, can’t beat it!

We came for our first visit to a pub since before lockdown and a couple of us were quite nervous but we were thoroughly impressed! We were looked after by a nice young man with a beard who explained to us the new protocol and made us feel at home and at ease. Great selection of gin and ales in a much lovelier atmosphere than we thought we’d get. I definitely recommend a visit.

Called in with my family had the steak & ale pie x 3 and the prawn cocktail baggy washed down with good ale very tasty and nice and hot well done we will be back great service and very polite staff thankyou

Visited due to staying in the village on a recent break and it was around the corner. Had looked forward to our evening meal but was hugely disappointed with the food and really angry too. I didn't feel it appropriate to make a complaint due to the Covid restrictions as this would have caused issues but i was really angry with the disdain they showed us as paying customers which needs to be said. Chips were brown, soft and soggy oven chips and were inedible. Both myself and partner left them as we simply couldn't eat them. Steak pie was OK but lukewarm. Not hot at all. Halloumi burger was ok too but the inability to be able to fry decent chips, a pretty elementary task for a chef, ruined the whole meal. We will not be visting again. Service was actually OK. Least it's something they are able to get right. Oh and also no locally brewed ales. Just generic Greene King rubbish etc and no Wold Top (local brewery) or other local ales. Not good.

We travelled from the blue dolphin 30 minutes drive as food was so good last park to eat here we did this because the food was lovely. This time we rang ahead to make sure there was a table available as we have 2 dogs, we sat in the beer garden and didn’t mind this as it was a lovely day. The beer garden has its own little window where you can order drinks and food. There is also an app that you can download that you can use to order and pay for your meal. The staff again were very friendly and helpful. Ordered the cheeseburger and the steak and ale pie and again the food was spot on. Chef kindly cooked us 2 sausages for the dogs which they enjoyed. The board inn has a good system in place to keep it Covid secure and the staff wore masks. We will definitely return here in September.

We visited after hearing good things about the food. The inn is tucked away on a back lane. It has a reasonable car park that is fairly level. On entering you find a traditional pub with a number of small bars and a restaurant. The barman was very friendly and welcoming as were the locals who had popped in for lunch. Always a good sign!! Anyway we selected our meals from the menu which has a good choice and reasonable prices. One thing of note was a section providing smaller portions. Whilst we were waiting for the meal to arrive we were teased by the food aromas coming from adjacent tables. When it arrived we were pleased both with the size of the meal and the presentation. Half a hour later we were on our way nourished and very happy. We will certainly return.It was a mid week visit in March so we managed to get a seat in the bar but it does get busy at weekends and during the Summer period so booking ahead may be advisable. There appears to be plenty of drinks choice but as we were travelling we stuck to tea with our meal. Finally, the inn offers a take away service with access to the normal menu with specials on certain days of the week. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Been to board in yet again food and staff excellent definitely recommend the steak pie and the carvery.

Extremely long wait for meals to turn up. Chips under cooked not many on plate. When asked if food was ok i said no and didn't get a response so went into a bit of detail still got no answer they just frowned and walked away. Used to be really good here but just seems like no one cares anymore and can't be bothered. I was driving so could only have one drink which i drank most of before the food showed up and the bit i had left had gone flat. I wasn't timing it but at least an hour after i ordered which just isn't good enough and it didn't make any sense as the pub wasn't exactly busy. Must be a problem in the kitchen and lack of communication between staff and management. No explanation can justify it but it's easy to see why it's not as busy here as it used to be. Very very disappointed

Our meal took an hour to arrive with some claptrap about a broken printer. Cobblers my partner asked for French mustard 20 minute after we ordered so why didn't anyone notice then our food wasn't bring prepared. More a case of a chef who can't be bothered and is dictating to the management. When it finally arrived there weren't many chips and my tomato had one thin slice took off it then griddle that side the rest of it was raw couldn't be bothered to slice it in half and cook it properly. All of this is very unfortunate as it's not the first time there's been problems with food here for us so we won't be coming again. Just shoddy and second rate sort your act out

Last time i came here i had to send the steak back to the kitchen as it was cooked wrong. I thought I'd give them another chance but tonight our food took an hour. A very meagre portion of chips less tgan half what should have bern on the plate. Apparently the food took an hour because the printer wasn't working which is just lame. Won't be coming here again it's gone downhill

went for lunch on a wet feb day. cosy bar with log burner roaring, good choice of well kept beers and non alcoholic beers for drivers. we had steak and ale pie and hunter,s chicken. both very good quality, good portions and very tasty, pie crust was proper pie crust.will definitely go again, many thanks

They managed to squeeze us in party of 9, Carvery beef and turkey perfectly cooked vegetables spot on , gravy very tasty would recommend , beers and desserts excellent too , good size portions, good service only too happy to please. Kids had a drawing to colour in to , book early not to be disappointed.

Staff were friendly. Easy to find. Good parking. Food was fresh, tasty and plentiful. The pub is undergoing some alterations despite this it was clean and comfortable.

Went for Sunday lunch a couple of weeks ago. The meal was excellent with plenty of choice and all fresh vegetables. Friendly people, couldn’t do enough for you. Would recommend the Board Inn to anyone wanting a pleasant place to have a very good meal.

Second time visiting this local pub for a Sunday lunch and it did not disappoint from walking in to order the drinks from the very sociable bar man to the very helpful waiter in the restaurant and Sofia who was more than helpful when slicing the lovely cooked beef, very nice to see fresh local products used and cooked to perfection, the only thing that was probably missing is no white meat on offer today but not an issue but just a thought, well done to all the team for a lovely Sunday lunch for the four of us we will return.

Looked for a nice local pub to hornsea and found this little gem in Skipsea. Amazing service and lovely warm welcome, then we had the roast and being 2 vegetarians delighted to see 2 options, nut roast or quorn roast. We had the nut roast and it was delicous!

Came here for a Sunday Carvery, absolutely delicious, all homemade. Excellent service. Even did a take away roast for our daughter who was poorly at home. Nothing was too much hassle - we will definitely return!!

Great food and quick service. Dog friendly too. Was on holiday in Skipsea and went there twice. We weren't disappointed on both occasions. Very reasonably priced too

Had a lovely meal here on Sunday evening for our works do. Three course meal for £15.95. The food was well cooked, tasty and the portions were very generous! The chocolate brownies were amazing! The staff were really friendly and helpful and we had a lovely evening!

Just called here for a Sunday lunch this is our second visit we had the Sunday carvery yet gain it was amazing also the staff were polite and very helpful we will be calling again.

Well what a change from my last review on pub meals in this area first was the

We visited here for my partners birthday with ten of us in a group. Easily booked in, staff very friendly although they didn’t want to do anything for her such as decorate or anything which was very strange as most places do. All the food was nice, we visited again on the Sunday and had Sunday dinner, not much to choose from apart from veg, needs some more adding on to it. Overall very nice and would recommend.

Best steak ever especially done rare devine chips n nice hand pulled stout need to try the sunday roast

Very welcoming and dog friendly, 2 of us had prawn cocktail to start it was huge loads of prawns and salad with brown bread. I had fish and chips which was excellent and generous portions with lovely batter. Son had a burger which he said was good, husband had steak and Stilton pie with fresh veggies and potatoes he thoroughly enjoyed it. The veg were tasty and fresh. Staff friendly beer was good as was wine.

Went for Sunday lunch, rang a couple of hours before to book a table, glad we did as it was very busy. Food was delicious. Would recommend.

Would recommend visiting Hornsea, Bridlington, or the caravan site bar/eateries. Notwithstanding that, Skipsea must mean `Skip The Sea` as the beach is dangerous & difficult to access.

Absolutely lovley food staff more than happy to help. Food not too expensive either. Lovley little pub not too far from the local campsite to which we where staying. Alot cheaper than the campsites food too

Really enjoyed our meal here we both had the braised steak, it's one of the best we've had on our travels.

this pub is way bigger than it looks from outside .very nice inside my wife and i had a meal first time this week .we were stuffed lovely food.nice pint of ruddles . will be coming again.

Went here for a meal while stopping at skipsea sands it was excellent and very reasonable priced it was that good we went back the next night !!!!!

Two of us went for an evening pub meal. The pub was warm with a friendly atmosphere, plenty of locals in there enjoying a drink and meal so that is always a good sign of a good pub,. the staff were friendly and helpful. I had scampi and chips all well cooked and hot, the chips were tasty, husband had chicken balti, he enjoyed it and the portion was more than enough for him. This pub is dog friendly too

we went in for lunch 03/10/2019,nice clean pub friendly bar staff,good food,dog friendly,free wi-fi,see you next year.

We were staying nearby and stopped here for a late lunch. It is an older pub inside but beers were poured and enjoyed whilst we looked at the menu. My wife opted for scampi, chips and peas and I decided on chilli and rice. Waited a little while but not too long and the food was served. Hot in temperature but chilli was very mild indeed as even I didn't feel any 'hit' and I am on the weak side. My wifes scampi was ok and hot but the chips were extremely disappointing as they looked lovely and dark and crisp but in fact were 'sand blasted' to give some colour whilst being very soft inside. This is a sure sign that the oil has not been changed for a while. When we were asked if everything was ok we did inform him that the chips were poor and the suspected reason and he stated he would check with the kitchen. It was no surprise that he did not come back to us or speak to us again before we left. Better customer service would have been appreciated. We were hungry and did in a strange way enjoy our meal but only to a certain degree. We would not return again as felt very let down.

She had a rump steak and I had the rib eye. Cooked exactly to our liking and very nice and tender. Among the best steaks I've ever had. The chips are made fresh not frozen. Definitely coming back here. Very friendly helpful staff

I loved it here. Nice dining area. Good service. The food is to die for I had a rump steak which was cooked just how I asked. The chips here are prepared fresh and are crisp on the outside and soft inside which is how they should be. We will return

Lovely fresh food. The chips are gorgeous. Good selection of beers. Very reasonably priced and i really don't think you can get better food for your money

Stayed in near by Skipsea for a short break and visited the board inn 3 days in a row for food and drinks. Between me and my partner we had the haddock and chips, meat pie, pate and toast, prawn cocktail, all of which were delicious. However on the last day we treated ourselves to the Ribeye Steak with homemade chips and peppercorn sauce, it was cooked beautifully and the ribeye was full of flavour, restaurant standard at pub prices. Fantastic value for money. All the staff were really friendly. Can't wait to visit again.

My family and I ate here in late September when we stayed in the area.

The food is absolutely amazing, the service is brill & the staff where super nice! Very tidy & pretty as well, would recommend.

If you like your barmaids with the dour demeanor of an underpaid undertaker and restaurants with sticky menus and tables as if mauled by a shedload of toddlers, then The Board Inn is the place for you. Serving staff efficient & friendly, portions large and steak & ale pie pretty good. Chips ditto, but marrowfat peas on the tough side. Beer not very palatable so easy to drink just the one. Place worth avoiding.

Called here 10 September for a pub lunch as we were staying at the local caravan park and had been recommended by the owner of the caravan that this pub was dog friendly - it is. My sister totally enjoyed her meat meal (can't remember what she chose) but I was less than impressed with my vegetarian option, putting it mildly. I chose the vegetable and halloumi burger (the only other option being vegetable lasagne - where is their imagination!!!???). The bun had no butter or even margarine on it - dry. The burger fell apart because it seemed to be made up mainly of seeds and therefore, again, very dry. The chips were just chips, can't go wrong with that. The halloumi must have been the last piece they had because it was cut so thinly, when cooked it also became very dry but at least it was reasonably edible (probably because I was very hungry). When the server came to take my plate away and mentioned about the thin halloumi and he replied that when he cooks halloumi at home, he cuts it thickly so that it doesn't dry out. £8.50 for a few chips, tomato sauce, vinegar, salt, pepper, a few bites of the dry burger and one bite of a dry burger bun does not equate to good value, nor a satisfied customer. All in all, a contented sister but a very discontented vegetarian sibling.

Visited with old friends and had a great time. Food was amazing and a lovely gentleman who looked after us behind the bar. Only downside was that we couldn’t set a tab up behind the bar. This was really inconvenient as we were splitting the bill 3 ways and had to keep going up to the bar, ordering each time, getting receipts, returning to the table, sort the money out and then back to the bar to pay. By the time we had done this 3 times for 2 rounds of drinks and the main courses we couldn’t be bothered to do it again for deserts and coffee and more drinks. Apart from that it is a really spot on place.

Cannot recommend enough .. We loved it so much we booked our wedding reception there . Staff, food , service excellent .. large portions and child and dog friendly x

Went there with my wife for the Sunday carvery.

We visited this Inn as we were staying at the Skipsea Sands, close by and it seemed perfect for a pub lunch. As soon as we entered we were greeted by a miserable old bar tender, who abruptly informed us that all the empty tables were reserved, despite not having reserved notices on them. Apparently the only table available was a dirty, battered old table at the back of the restaurant, close to the kitchen. The waitress/barmaid was no friendlier. The atmosphere was dreary, decor drab and staff sullen. We beat a hasty retreat to a lovely pub in Bridlington, bright, welcoming and friendly. We never got as far as food, though the kitchen smelt like a greasy spoon. Will be giving this place a wide berth in future.
