The Fleece Inn in Bradford

We went for a casual lunch as we were snowed in. Our waitress Katie was wonderful, so friendly and made us feel very welcome. Food was excellent. we will visit again

All tables very busy but staff coped admirably. Any delays well-explained. Two excellent waitresses who served us - could not read name badges so cannot identify.

Female server too busy chatting to bother serving customers even after noticing people waiting at the bar. Attitude of another female server was rude and stuck up. A third female server who brought our food just put the food down and walked off, so we had to ask for condiments. Sat in tap room, which had a electric heater but was still cold, as we had a dog, other people with dogs were offered tables (not pre booked) in the main bar/barn. Fish pie was tasty but the sauce was so thin more like soup.

Lovely meal to wrap up our festive celebrations. The staff were great, nothing was too much trouble and every member of staff greeted us with a “Happy New Year” which was lovely. We were a family group with a toddler and young child and felt very comfortable. We would definitely recommend and we will definitely be back

Mixed experience at The Fleece. Lovely atmosphere in the bar and the whole place is nicely decorated in an upmarket style. Senior member of staff was very welcoming and looked after us. Food was disappointing though: the overpriced and over promised burger was appropriately overdone (not once but twice) and came with a maddeningly tiny portion of bog standard fries (in a metal cup kidding no one) and nothing else included - onions rings, salad etc. Regular fish and chips was under done and on the small side given it was £17+. The “small” must be tiny! Final thing - staff chatting about hating their shifts/work etc - why do this when customers can obviously hear?!

A wonderful meal, the barest steak was excellent and perfectly cooked. I cannot fault a thing. One of the best meals out I’ve had.

Great little place with a nice tap :)

Fantastic meal at the Fleece Inn, we arrived at 12-30 to be the first customer in the lovely restaurant and within half an hour the place was full and buzzing with a lovely atmosphere. There was a great menu and some lovely extras on the specials board! I had the kerelan curry which was superb and my wife had fish and chips. The service was fantastic from the moment we arrived and I'm sure we will be back!

We ate at The Fleece today and we had the chateaubriand which came with cauliflower cheese, pigs in blankets and loads of veg. The steak was so tasty and everything was cooked to perfection. Shout out to Emma, Michaela and Katy who served us.

Friendly attentive staff , good warm festive atmosphere , extras of card and crackers. Excellent well cooked warm food

A wonderful evening, perfect ambience, attentive service. The food was wonderful. My bavette steak was beautiful, one of the best best meals out I have had.

We had a lovely meal. My sister is vegetarian and she had eggs Benedict with avocado which she said was delicious. I had a fillet steak. It was by far one of the best steaks I have had.

Slow service in beginning, waited 25mins to be served a beverage. Xmas dinner, potatoes undercooked, sprouts undercooked, turkey lovely but bacon around well undercooked. Steak superb.

Emma was amazing and made our experience relaxed and welcoming. The extra touches for the children made is stress free. Seated upstairs gave the children the space they needed but yet still had a lovely atmosphere Thank you

What an incredible place to have my first solo Christmas dinner ! The staff were friendly and attentive, the food was second to none and the atmosphere incredible! Tilly you made my whole dining experience a joy! If you plan to eat out for Christmas day you will not be disappointed having your Christmas lunch here! Thank you for making my day soooooo special x Lorraine

We had a lovely Christmas lunch at the fleece ..a great place with a very welcoming atmosphere. Our waitress Tilly did a brilliant job ,we would definitely reccomend.

We love The Fleece! What a wonderful time we had on Christmas Day with The Fleece team. Gorgeous food - some of the best soup I’ve ever had, provided by a wonderful and calm team who couldn’t do more for you. Big thanks to Emma and the team member with the awesome electric blue hair (I forgot to ask their name haha!). Big thanks to the whole team who were super busy but super wonderful - we hope you got a rest afterwards. I would thoroughly recommend a visit - Christmas Day or otherwise, it’s a great cosy space.

Lovely pub in quaint village of Addingham.

Lovely meal … all fresh ingredients and very delicious! Will definitely book again. Merry Christmas to all the lovely staff 🎄🥳

had a lovely lunch out, christmas crackers and festive hats to go with our hot chocolates and meal !! As always perfect service from the team, highly recommended :))

Immey was our host and perfect service

Just had a great pre-Christmas lunch at The Fleece with a group of friends. We've tried a few other restaurants in Yorkshire, but we always keep coming back to The Fleece, even though we live south of Leeds, as every time we've visited the food has been superb, the service excellent and the atmosphere warm and inviting. Thank you to all the staff at The Fleece for making our visit so enjoyable, with special thanks to Tilly for looking after us so brilliantly. We'll be back in 2025 for sure!

Came for a meal with my family to celebrate christmas, I had the burger and it was delicious. The service from Michaela and Immy was fantastic, I can't wait to return in the new year!!!

Lorraine provided great service

Staff are amazing. Food and drink even better, Lorraine was brilliant

The burger was very tasty and filling and the ice creams were to a great standard

Lovely food , festive menu. Staff were great really friendly. Carol singers made a lovely festive touch

Food was exceptional with excellent service. Highly recommend.

Came for our Christmas party at the Fleece, the service from Katy was fantastic and the food couldn't be faulted. Will definitely be back next year to see them all again!!!

Absolutely love the fleece, the team are super friendly and Emma and Michaela always great us with a smile!! Foods delicious and the pints are even better! 🍻

11/10 on all fronts - definitely recommend the specials board! Pints are great too and the staff are unmatched - especially Alex!xx

Awesome village pub! Ideal location, awesome atmosphere and great service. Couldn’t ask for much more!

Great breakfast and always good service

Great food and service and the atmosphere is always good. Really enjoyed the whole meal. Many thanks

Lovely atmosphere and great service from tilly

Really delicious breakfast with friendly service in a cosy pub.

Visited The Fleece today for a festive brunch! Emma opened up early for us - thank you so much! Fabulous food, great service we will be back!

I thoroughly enjoyed our meal with the #camramblers on Saturday. Although we were a large group, everything was wonderfully coordinated, very tasty and hot. The brie starter was beautiful and the fish pie delicious. Finally the apple strudel was so substantial I couldn't quite finish it despite its exceptional quality. I wish I had taken photos of the food to share here but I was too busy enjoying the occasion in this really stunning amazing pub. All staff were friendly and helpful and I won't leave it another year to go back!

Fantastic birthday lunch for family and friends at the Fleece. Welcomed and shown to our table by Emma, the food was delicious, atmosphere excellent and the semi private dining area allowed us to feel able to be a little louder than in a crowded restaurant. Designated waitress Rihanna was attentive, and the whole afternoon went really well. We will be back next time!

Unfortunately the veg for the main course was stolen cold. Mentioned it to the serving staff and all they did was say sorry. Eventually got my meal warmed up (in a microwave I reckon). Simply not good enough.

We where a group of 42 walkers, having the 3 course festive menu, when you book for such a large group you do expect 1 or 2 to have something thats not quite up to standard. Most thoroughly enjoyed their meal and the service. Also the room upstairs was brilliant, with a walm and welcoming atmosphere. A massive thank you to everyone at the Fleece. Would recommend for large groups. #Camramblers Walking Group.

The food was delicious, also the staff was very nice and friendly.

Had our yearly Christmas “do” at the Fleece last Saturday and have to say that we were disappointed with the food this year, last year having been far better. Main course veggies were cold, the roast potatoes leathery and hard to cut, and the turkey roll was of reasonable quality meat, (there were some fatty/grisly bits), but filled with an overly peppery stuffing. The sponge pudding and custard was very nice but on its own unable to negate the aforementioned shortfalls of the overall meal! Atmosphere was great, the beer excellent and the service prompt. Will we be back next year? Hmmm…

My wife and I went for lunch whilst on a short stay in North Yorkshire following a recommendation we had been given. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. I had the chicken pot pie and my wife had the fish pie, both of which were very good. Would recommend a visit to anyone.

We came to celebrate my husband's 80th birthday. His choice of venue. A recommendation to be sure.

Ordered from the festive menu for a late lunch with my son. I had the smoked haddock florentine to start which was absolutely delicious. The dish was beautifully presented and the poached egg was perfect. Unfortunately two of the four main course options were unavailable but I had the lentil shepherds pie which, whilst very nice, was slightly dry. This was soon rectified by the addition of some gravy. For dessert I chose the mandarin and vanilla cheesecake which was deliciously light and creamy. As always, the service from Anyela, Claire, Katy and Lorraine was fantastic and the restaurant area looked delightful with its Christmas decorations. Overall a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Ate on a Monday lunchtime. Lovely, friendly welcome from Michaela. Atmosphere always good. Just marked down a notch this time, as I thought my Turkey lunch was a bit uninspiring. Lovely roasties, turkey a little on dry side and choice of veg a bit disappointing.

Fantastic food & service as always.

The salmon with egg fried rice was absolutely sumptuous, we would definitely recommend it.

Emma was extremely helpful when making our booking

It’s lovely, the building is cozy and warm. The staff are lovely and helpful. The food is great, I normally go for the fish pie and I would have it again, my partner had a steak and it tasted great.

Went for Sunday Brunch, absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. Stayed in a very fancy hotel recently and this was better! Love the Fleece, Emma and all her staff (and dog) are so welcoming.

Although haven’t been for a while it’s a local go to place for good pub food and lively atmosphere.

Food absolutely delicious and the staff were all fantastic. We will 100% be returning.

Perfect other that the service charge.

Service was good but nothing exceptional, just like the food OKish

Fantastic throughout! Brilliant abiente, staff amazing and prompt service. The food was delicious and super fresh! Live music that evening was fantastic but slightly too loud whilst eating 🙌

Great country pub in the lovely village of Addingham on the edge of the Yorkshire dales.

We travelled up to Yorkshire to go on the Steam train at Bolton Abbey, for the polar express. Decided to stop off at the Fleece Inn, wow, a beautiful meal, staff great. Will definitely be stopping off again, on our next visit to the Dales. Thanks

Well, one wonders why there is a remarks section in the booking form. That’s 2 visits out of 3 where the Fleece owners have failed to acknowledge birthdays. This time it was a double celebration of my son and his grandfather. Completely ignored the booking notes. It wasn’t busy - no excuse. Service was mediocre at best. Waiter interrupted waitress whilst taking our orders. Drinks orders were wrong (regular champagne as opposed to rosé). One drink served in a cracked glass. Had to ask on 2 different occasions for unused glasses to be moved - the staff were just plonking down drinks in the (limited) area available. Looking through the reviews of this establishment, poor service seems to be the theme. Many items missing off the menu. Food mediocre and overpriced. Staff were rude when I offered gentle and polite feedback. No significant apology at yet another birthday oversight. Manager who got in touch simply backed up her staff without shouldering responsibility. I would strongly recommend you avoid this establishment. It has been fraught with ups and downs over the years and it is now amidst another downward spiral.

Beautiful food in a beautiful pub with great service!

We booked our pre wedding dinner, at the Fleece for 15 people. They gave us a beautiful private room upstairs. Many of our guests were American & they were blown away with the room. As for the meals, they were superb, as was the wine. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. They were outstanding both in flavour & presentation. The staff couldn't do enough for us, they were all so attentive. I would highly recommend the Fleece and we will definitely be returning.

We had an absolutely amazing meal here on Sunday, the service was great, really attentive and couldn’t be more helpful!

Great Sunday lunch there yesterday. Lashings of gravy too.

Great for a drink or for an evening meal. Good car park to the side of the pub and large covered outside eating and drinking area.

Completely missed the fact that it was a double birthday celebration over 2 generations. Service haphazard to say the least. Drinks orders wrong as each time the lady was taking orders, the gentleman would interrupt her to ask about another matter. Waiter was scatty and many items missing off the menu. Food average and overpriced. Last visit to this overrated ‘gastro’ pub. Truly awful.

Visited for Sunday lunch while we were staying in the area. Food was fantastic, great friendly service wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Lovely relaxed Sunday lunch with the family. Everyone enjoyed the food, service excellent and atmosphere great.

This is the second time we have experienced excellent food and service at The Fleece in Addingham. We do not often eat out, so when we do, we want it to be special. The Fleece was also an obvious choice as we travelled back from a day in the Dales after a long walk, with its relaxed and comfortable environment making us feel welcome.

We had a lovely birthday celebration with friends. The service from our young server was attentive and friendly. She told the kitchen staff we were celebrating a birthday and they produced a chocolate 'happy birthday' plate with desserts. Our food was good and nicely presented and the general atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable.

Visited with immediate family to celebrate son's birthdays. Warm welcome from arrival and throughout our meal. As always, food was delicious and atmosphere enjoyable

What a pleasant surprise. Great service excellent food. Will definitely be calling in again.

Our meal at the Fleece on Saturday night was great. The food was delicious and our server was friendly, polite and knowledgeable.

What a great pub, The Fleece is ! We live towards York so a good hour for us, but well worth it Super courtyard with a sail type cover and a few heaters for the hardy souls Inside, we were greeted with a really warm welcome. Traditional pub with stone floor etc Oh and dog friendly too ! We were served by the lovely Emma S. whose smile and warm nature was so evident. A special person. We don’t think she quite realises how very good she is at her job ! The food was good honest above average pub grub 2 mains, a wine and a soft drink was less than £60. Great value considering the quality of food and the great service

Been many times before and love the place however this time it’s wasn’t as good … my gammon was burnt and hidden by the eggs … we will come back but a bit hit and miss x

Mid week meal , friendly staff, food was lovely and came out at a good pace… felt a little rushed towards the end but a nice environment and atmosphere… would go back again if in the area

Came here for a quick bite to eat. We sat outside, cool seating area; perfect in summer! The staff were very friendly and funny and the food was yummy!

We love the relaxed cosy atmosphere. There is a wide choice of dishes and the food is lovely . The staff are delightful, happy to listen to us, regarding our choices ,nothing too much trouble.

Excellent food, friendly staff and great service, a lovely warm cosy place to have dinner on a Saturday.

The staff in the restaurant were all lovely, very friendly and attentive. They were kind towards our dog which was nice. There was an initial delay waiting in the bar to get seated, of about 10 mins which started to feel a little uncomfortable. In fact, another couple walked out whilst we were waiting. The food was slightly disappointing, the fish goujons were overcooked and the batter was bitter tasting, possibly cooked in old oil. The bread was dry and floury. The chorizo was oily. The beef pie was good and the salty chips were ok.

Price per head for buffet food was very reasonable but hot food, whilst tasty was a bit heavy on the stomach for a pre-meeting lunch. Maybe consider some lighter alternatives?

I held my father's celebration of life gathering in the barn at the Fleece . The staff were very accommodating. The food came out on time and tasted great . Emma was amazing with booking - fabulous customer service . #

We visited while staying in Addingham on the 16th September, what a lovely pub, superb atmosphere, wonderful character filled old building, great food & drink. Staff were superb and our server Immy couldn’t have been more welcoming & informative when we asked repeated questions about the menu. She bent over backwards to accommodate us and nothing was too much trouble. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Fleece to others, 10/10!

We came as a group of eight to celebrate my brother's 60 th birthday. We were welcomed, and our needs were met. We felt really well looked after. Our waitress was brilliant. Everyone said their food was great. My only little pointer was that I felt my Roast Sea Bream was just a couple of small tail ends. But the dish as a whole was lovely.

Helpful and friendly staff. The food was great. The main took a bit of time to arrive, but it was a Saturday evening so quite busy. I would highly recommend the 10 Oz rib-eye steak.

Very cozy with a spacious outdoor area and decent parking around the back. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Very nice food, friendly service, decent enough menu with a good choice of meats and fish. Their custard is amazing 👏

Usual all round excellence slightly marred by other, loud diners making our conversations difficult

A really lovely afternoon spent eating our 24th wedding anniversary meal at The Fleece in Addingham.

I popped in here after a walk around the area. I’m always worried that I’ll get turned away from places in Walking kit, but I was very much welcomed. There seemed to be quite a few walkers in there, as well as lots of dogs! I’ll be honest from the outset, it’s expensive. There were just two of us. We had two mains and two puddings along with two soft drinks and it totalled £75. So it’s certainly not on the cheap side. But… the food was absolutely beautiful. If you think the photos look amazing, it tasted even better. We were not disappointed! The staff were really friendly too. Nothing was too much and they were very attentive. The place itself is really nice. Has a “country pub” feel to it with a lovely ambience. Couldn’t fault it. Yes, it’s slightly expensive, but the food was amazing.

My wife and I lunch here regularly not only for the quality food and specials board but also for the cosy ambience and friendly staff. Last week for my wife's special -0th birthday we invited a number of friends to a celebration in their candle-lit private dining room. It was a superb occasion everyone agreed, with the full menu available, but made extra special by the personal attention of Bogdon and Mike to ensure absolute perfection. Many thanks also to all the staff for their continuing thoughtful kindnesses. Anne & Peter

The food was pleasant, though portions on the small side. The service was excellent and waiting staff were helpful and attentive. I thought for portion size food was quite expensive, however it was fresh ingredients cooked well.

The food was very good. A varied menu. Service was excellent. The waiter was friendly and efficient.

Nice place and very good service from all staff. Would have liked to have been able to actually see the specials available rather than be told.

Celebrated my birthday with friends for a lunchtime get together - we all enjoyed the food - delicious. There is a good selection of choices, and good portions. For dessert as a treat, we choose off the coffee and cake option this time- 3 mouthwatering canolli each! Wine included. Fab! Staff are always very friendly and welcoming. Its a regular spot

Attentive service without being overbearing. Main courses generous, good quality and well-presented

A truly wonderful place to eat. Fantastic food and outstanding service. The team were friendly, helpful and attentive. The food was amazing and very well priced for the quality. Recently we have left many pubs and restaurants feeling a bit disappointed and that dining out just isn't worth it. The Fleece Inn has reminded us of the joy of eating wonderful food in a lovely environment. Thank you!! We very much look forward to visiting again soon and have recommended as a must visit to our friends and family.

Really lovely cosy pub, food of an excellent excellent standard, minused 1 star due to 45 min wait but otherwise excellent and would visit again

Wonderful meal for my mums 70th celebrations. Bogdan, Emma and the team really went above and beyond to ensure it was special with some very personal touches. The food was excellent, we will definitely be back. Thank you so very much.
