Traditional style pub. In serious need of a refurbishment (especially the toilets) However the food is good and plentiful with plenty of choice which keeps the punters happy. Friendly staff. Car park. Good choice of drinks. Vegetarian choices are available.

Been for a catch up lunch with friends today, a really lovely little traditional pub. Good choice of beers, lager and gins. Staff were really friendly and did a great job, left us to it, no rush to order and no rush to get us out the door but still attentive with checking in as to whether we needed any drinks etc throughout our visit. Food was lush, really decent portions and food cooked well and good quality. Would highly recommend and we will definitely make sure to visit again!

Great little gem of a place. Didn't expect food to be this tasty and so generous. I'd highly recommend everyone to stop there for a nice meal. They really look after you, and it feels like you're at someone's house having a friendly meal, rather than in a pub. I will come back to try a different meal for sure :) Well impressed 👍😁👍

Sadly, the first greeting was, "Are you eating. As we said, no, just a drink it was oh right what do you want. And once served it was you can sit there only. Pointing to a couple of tables crammed in a corner. And when you looked around, every table was set set up for food. It's such a shame as I used to be a good proper pub.

Went in yesterday with my partner his mother and my daughter. Was very impressed with the customer service, they where very attentive and eager to please. All the food was very tasty, fresh and delivered at a fast and high quality. The pub itself is a gorgeous traditional pub, inviting, good atmosphere also nice and clean. Will definitely be returning and recommending to others.

First time trying this pub - I'm from Leeds but staying in Clayton for the weekend looking after a friends dogs. Fancied pub tea and after having a look online I chose this place. Good variety of beer, ale, wine and soft drinks. I was sat at a table and given a menu and my drink brought over to me. It's quite a large menu but I chose the Chicken Fajitas with a portion of chips (I didn't know it came with a handful of chips already). It took longer to come out than your typical greene king / wetherspoon pubs, but that's because its fresh and made to order instead of microwaved, and they did have a large table too, so was glad I was accommodated as I was on my own. The fajita's came out sizzling, the portions were extremely generous especially for the price! They came with 3 torillas, 3 dips (Salsa, Garlic mayo and sour cream) all were lovely and the salsa was clearly homemade, as well as a basket of chips and salad garnish. Taste was incredible, I really enjoyed it and had some to bring home too. The staff were very friendly and attentive too. It's a great historic pub, clearly ran well and the food is very tasty. I will be travelling from Leeds to visit here again in the future without a doubt.\

What can i say about this place. Beautiful food every time I have visited, it's an old world kinda place, no fine dining but the sevice and food are great. I had the black pudding and smoked bacon starter in a mustard sauce and it was special a must try. Haddock goujon sandwich on granary bread with a beautiful portion of home cooked chips and a large portion of super crunchy onion rings. Please try this place. For a foodie like me this place is perfect

We popped in on Sunday for the first time with the hopes of a table to which the lovely waitress found us one. We were greeted with a warm welcome and big smiles. We were so pleased that the full menu was available as well as the Sunday dinner! We both ordered the steak sandwich which came with cheese, onions and mushrooms. Went to order chips and onion rings extra but was told it was included in the price! The food came in a timely manner and wow! The plate was huge; big thick tiger baguette, home made chips and home made onion rings, salad and coleslaw. The steak was so soft, melt in the mouth, delicious! We were so full and had no intention of dessert until we saw the table next to us have theirs bought out! so we ordered sticky toffee pudding and chocolate brownie. Home made and huge portions again! 2 mains, 2 desserts, 2 pints and a coke for under £40 - bargain! Pleasurable experience from start to finish, the staff were so lovely which is wonderful to see. So glad we popped in on the hop because we will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Been here a few times. The food was good . On my last visit ( last night) we didn't get chance to eat because of the time we waited. We waited over an hour for our food . It wasn't until I approached the bar and wanted to pay my bar bill that I was told our food was ready....sorry too lated! My partner was diabetic and needed the food. But we we're not informed of any delays or updated by staff why the food was late. There we're a few groups that had waited and approached the bar because of the late food. We decided to leave without eating. To say I was angry is an understatement. We won't be going there again.

Beautifully cooked food; genuinely home cooked to an extremely high standard. Without doubt the best pub meal I've ever had, and better than the majority of posh restaurants I've been to, all at extremely reasonable prices. Desserts are to die for. Staff were friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble, real ale was perfect. I'll be back on a regular basis from now on!

Food was good. Massive portions which some would enjoy but myself found a little overwhelming and I have a pretty good appetite. My first drink of cola was flat and not very cold, however my second was very fizzy...think they must have been serving from a bottle supply rather than a tap. The decor looks dated and needs a pick me up. Worth going and giving it a try. Bring an empty tummy!

I grew up in the village of Shelf and the Bottomleys always had a good reputation for good food in a friendly atmosphere. I since moved to Hampshire & it’s always a pleasure to visit the ‘Bots’ again. The warm welcome, great food and friendly service still remains. The food is homemade, delicious, and portions generous. All served with genuine Yorkshire hospitality (I miss that living the the south). Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Food was a lot better than I expected. I didn't expect it to be bad, I expected it to be standard pub food. I got the Prawn Curry, and I'm not lying when I say this, but it was fantastic! I poured it all over my chips and swept it up with the poppadom and Naan. I'd have preferred a bigger naan, but that's because I'm a greedy C. We ate in the outside earing area as the sun was beaming down. I will 100% be going back! I 4*ed the atmosphere just because there weren't many people in, but I'm sure it's probably 5* when there's a few more in.

We were in this area for the weekend in our motorhome from South Wales, so we walked to one pub which was closed, so we had a 20min. Walk to the Bottomleys Arms. On arrival, we sat at a table, and a lady came over and asked us if we'd booked as they had a big party coming in and all tables were reserved. We were very disappointed and told her we had walked from the other pub so she asked the manager if there was anything they could do. They then got us a table and we had beautiful meals and all the staff were really friendly. Thank you so much to the Bottomleys arms

Super slow service, took over an hour for starters to appear, then the mains came out and the “breaded chicken” was deep fried and dripping in grease, bland and over done. I hate to complain about front of house as I’m one myself but 5 members of staff and only one poor bloke running round after every table, they weren’t even that full but clearly they need a better system.

Good selection of food on menu, I'd reduce it to half to save the chefs from going mad. Nice, wholesome meals with taste and portion size is good. Good selection of puddings especially the lemon cheesecake which had a lovely buttery biscuit base and the mascapony topping was sweet and creamy all home made and not baked which wife prefers and if this quality can be maintained she will be back weekly! Big piece too which makes you feel you have been given a treat and not the usual slither you get in other venues. Waiting staff all try hard to please and the restaurant manager has the most warm and caring smile

My husband ordered the mixed grill, when it arrived it was swimming in grease, the server asked if everything was OK my husband never complains but said I thought the mixed grill would be made on a grill, to which the young girl said it is, the mushrooms, tomato and chips are deep fried, I appreciated frying the chips but to deep fry a tomato or mushroom, I think the chef needs to learn how to cook basic food, won't be returning this place has gone down hill.

Lovely welcoming pub with great food and a warm atmosphere. Recently changed hands and the new landlords have brought with them super friendly staff, permanently lit fires and (so far anyway), fab menus. …Traditional pub food but elevated with added twists and nice presentation. Really enjoyed our three visits so far (once for a couple of pints and twice for food) and will definitely be back. Beautiful walks on the doorstep too.

Came for new years and although the food was very nice, I felt the service was lacking, especially in comparison with 22 the square in CrossHills. We had meatballs and creamy mushrooms to start. Both were delicious. Followed by two pasta dishes- one carbonara, one mushroom pasta. The food was really lovely. We did need to ask for things a few times e.g water and cocktails. And it didnt feel the staff are as friendly as its Crosshills counterpart.
