The Fleece Inn in Calderdale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely pub, staff really nice and food was great, I have to say though our room was very small and had damp on the ceiling which made my husbands chest really bad with his asthma,bifolding door into the bathroom was hard to open and when you flushed the toilet it made a hell of a noise the only reason why we didn’t complain is that we dropped our bags in the room and went out to see family so never came back to the room till late and was only the next morning we noticed how bad the room was but was too late to change as it was the wedding that day, this room would be so much better as a single room with a smaller bed and half the price, I’ve been in very nice rooms for much less than £120, I would stay here again in a different room as I saw 2 of the other bedrooms that were slightly bigger so if this review helps don’t stay in number 6

Been hear several times as ever food / staff always perfect. Wedding open viewing afternoon, very busy with potential takers seems a good venue. We looked at booking a family gathering approx 40 guests. With elderly guests but no disabled facilities. What a shame as venue perfect. Will keep looking. Will still call for meals.

Amazing food . Great bar staff and waiting staff . Excellent food for a good price with 50% off , good quality and nice atmosphere. Recommended to all in the area

Shocking service Terrible meal - had to send sandwiches back as they were cold when they arrived when they were supposed to be hot pulled pork and melted cheese- the cheese was still Cold and not melted!!!! When they came back from the kitchen it was obvious they had just been out in a microwave to warm up - but they were still luke warm !! Needless to say we did not eat them! Shocking and we will Not be returning Very disappointed after going to the fleece for lunch for a good number of years!

Beautiful location, although sadly miserable weather. Generally good service despite being very busy with a wedding party. The food was excellent and good value.

Excellent food, beautifully presented and perfect portion sizes. The staff were extremely efficient, pleasant and professional. A great choice for lunch in lovely surroundings.

A busy restaurant very popular. Spectacular views. Good food and service but a bit cramped for space inside.

They had a wedding on and were unable to maintain timely bar service. We waited 35 mins for drinks and in the end I went up to the bar to get them myself. Food great as usual.

Set on a Yorkshire Hill, you'll get amazing views from the outdoor area & the staff were great too, not over the top asking if every mouthful was a delight, they were there when needed & the food is excellent.

Relaxed atmosphere, pleasant staff,amazing views from patio are AMAZING , food lovely but pricey.

We visit The Fleece 3 or 4 times a year and always enjoy our visits. However, we did notice the menu has less choices than in the past. There was a wedding reception in progress so it was a little noisy at times. The staff were most efficient.

First time that we’ve visited this venue. Everything was fantastic and the view’s are beautiful. Will definitely call again.

Very helpful staff, food super , well presented. Interesting menu Grand night out!

Lovely food in a beautiful setting, atmosphere was casual and relaxed

We had a lovely family meal great staff and service. Beautiful views thank you

Lovely meal but a little crowded and scruffy since last time. Excellent food and will be back soon.

We had a lovely family meal,celebrating Mum's birthday. The staff were very attentive. Food was lovely and reasonably priced.

Amazing steak! Best in the land. Great terrace too with a spectacular view.

Good food, excellent service, an enjoyable evening, we will be back

Great food and service. Was fairly quiet (Tues evening)

Received a warm and friendly welcome. Taken to our table straight away. Drinks ordered while we looked at the menu. Food order taken promptly and delivered in an appropriate timescale. Food was excellent and value for money

Beef Sunday lunch was cooked to perfection BUT just don’t get the sweet red cabbage

The Sunday dinner was good as always but I’ve marked it down as the portion size was on the small size and wasn’t consistent with other guests near by, we both agreed that the dinners were smaller than previously

Very nice and relaxed Sunday lunch, I didn’t have a traditional Sunday lunch and chose the sea bream on prawn and scallops risotto it was lovely , my wife had traditional roast beef lunch which she enjoyed, wasn’t over busy however this made it a little too quick , we were in and out under an hour when we normally expect a more relaxed approach

First time eating here but we’ll definitely be back. Starters and mains were excellent and the idea of a small, sweet treat in the form of macarons and brownies was a perfect way to finish. Service was similarly good.

I would not normally write a review but feel I need to. When we arrived we were placed at a table next to the door. It kept constantly banging and when we asked to move the waitress said all other tables were taken without giving it a second thought. After 5 mins of this we asked again and were moved pretty quickly but first impressions count and it felt like the first waitress either couldnt be bothered or was being awkward. During our visit no other free tables were taken by other customers. I ordered a steak, it felt like I was eating two different steaks. Clearly it hadn't been left to rest and the first few mouthfulls were as tough as old boots. I let it rest and the steak was completely different after 5 mins but other food had gone cold. Two very simple things to rectify but extremely important when dining out.

Went for a family meal and was disappointed compared with previous visits. Staff friendly, starters were good but main dishes were disappointing, Caesar salad tasted very fishy and too much lettuce, fish platter the fish tasted strange and later had tummy ache, the steak didn’t taste of much and my husbands fish and chips were not good, the food was overpriced and felt liked I’d been ripped off.

Good environment, Good customer service, Good food, Good drinks,

Great food best Sunday Dinner ever.

Really nice food, & great service, friendly staff👍

Our experience on the night was very poor. Had been booked 6 weeks but was put on a table for six by the entrance,with only the tills as a view. The service was patchy,the food was good. We did not leave a tip and my wife and I will not return to eat there.

Good service ,delicious food overall a lovely afternoon.

Always great food beer and service . Will be back very soon

Always good food in the Fleece. Interesting menu with plenty of choice. Meal timings well spaced

This was our first visit to The Fleece and it won't be our last. Service was excellent, and the food was superb.

My room was spotlessly clean and had everything I needed ( ie hairdryer, shower jel and tea and coffee). The bed was comfy ( a little soft for my personal taste but very comfy) with very good quality pillows. Normally in hotels I need an eye mask due to too much light, but here the room was nice and dark, giving me a good nights sleep. The hotel is on a main road which is noisey in the day but even though my room was facing the road it was quiet at night . It didn't effect my sleep. The bar area was nice with friendly staff. I was a bit disappointed by the choice of beers , in a countryside Inn I would have liked some local real ales. But I did have a nice pint if Timothy Taylor. I was disappointed that I stayed during a very wet British summer because the beer garden area looked stunning. Hopefully the sun will shine on my next visit. Evening meal in bistro lived up to the 2 AA rosettes . The wine was good quality and reasonably priced. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and service is efficient. Although it's a nice small menu I was spoilt for choice . A good mix of traditional dishes and dishes with a nice modern twist. Plenty of fish and vegan options as well as steaks. One thing I don't like is when restaurants put a bit of paper on the plate under the fish and chips . I don't get why they do it, its not needed . Overall great stay . It deserves the AA stars.

Staff were very friendly and welcoming. The food was well presented and tasty. Nice local flavours ( i had Yorkshire cheese with fruit cake for dessert) and some modern twists wirh items such as kimich and curry mayo. The portions were filling . Serve was fast but not hurried. A nice enjoyable meal

Staff were delightful Food was delicious Planning to go back to try Sunday lunch-

We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday lunch at The Fleece. The food was delicious. We had the vegetarian roast and a beef dinner. We were both impressed with the selection of vegetables and the Yorkshire pudding. The venue was relaxed and had a lovely atmosphere. We look forward to going again soon.

Live locally but not eaten there for years, friendly greeting, although busy with a wedding party who all seemed to be having a great time we were looked after very well, not rushed went at our own pace. Good choice on the menu well cooked nicely presented without being too fancy. Manager and staff were friendly and efficient. Had a great experience with our friends. Will certainly not leave it as long to eat here again. Our compliments to the chef and all the staff.

Delicious food, large portions with good quality ingredients. The staff were both fairly new and couldn’t answer all our questions about the menu but they were really friendly and pleasant.

Excellent meal.staff attentive but not imposing.would highly recommend for a special meal on a special occasion.

Great food,great staff,lovely setting Both enjoyed.

We’ve had some amazing meals here in the past but unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. The service was excellent, but the food I’m afraid, not so. I ordered the aged steak burger - it wasn’t! That description leads one to expect a hand pressed ground beef burger but instead, the one presented to me was a supermarket style meat paste burger with a decidedly rubbery consistency. To be fair to the staff, the service was excellent, but the standard of food really let the restaurant down. They need to up their game if they’re going to retain discerning customers. I wonder if it has changed hands since the last time we visited?

We’re quite regular diners at The Fleece. The food and service is always very good. Great menu at the moment too.

We had absolutely gorgeous meal here, food wonderful, staff lovely, would definitely recommend.

We had a faboulous family meal at The Fleece on Sunday afternoon. The food was fantastic as ever and the service great. To be honest, I don't think we could fault anything. Thank you!

Decent food and good atmosphere on the Terrace outside. Whilst the outside area is self ordering, need to ensure cutlery and condiments are well stocked to avoid any frustration

Lovely venue, superb views and excellent staff. Good menu choice

We stayed near The Fleece and were happily surprised with the whole place. Great service, excellent food and good drinks. Nice views from the rear balcony too.

Been many of times and always a great experience although this time around it wasn’t. Sunday dinners weren’t the best. A spoonful of mash, the beef was really really fatty and hardly any gravy. Daughters pizza and chips came late. The Pizza was cold and the chips were scorching. I would still return as this is the first bad experience we’ve encountered after many visits. Staff were fab as always, especially alysha!

Great food and great place good service, very pleasant staff great choice of menu 👍

Food and service really good. Roast dinners need more gravy - this is Yorkshire after all!

Really good food and friendly staff. location is beautiful, we are definitely coming back again.

Wasn’t as impressed with the food choice as I have been on past occasions. Menu was a lot smaller and a lot of fish options which isn’t my cup of tea. The food I had was good but would have liked more choice.

Food was really good. Only negative was the shell that was in the dressed crab (main course) which we told the waitress, who really didn’t appear to be bothered. Slight delay in getting some condiments with the main course too. Won’t stop us coming back but it’s the small details that make the difference between occasional visits to regular visits

The meal was very good but not "fine dining". The noise level was a bit high but all my party had an excellent evening

Lovely venue with friendly service. However the food was a bit disappointing in particularly the Ploughman’s lunch which may have looked nice but the ingredients appeared as though they had just been purchased from a supermarket, it included a standard porkpie, McDonalds type fries, bit of brie , thin sliced meat and a small bread roll, the type you just heat up in an oven. I missed the fresh sliced bread, pickle, cheeses incl cheddar and just lacking the special touch you expect when in a nice establishment such as this.

Not been to the fleece for 12 months. The menu has changed and it was delicious. I will be back very soon. Food was cooked to high standard 5 stars Highly recommend

A beautifully situated Inn with a great outdoor decking facility.The food choices where excellent and one of my party was vegan she was also pleased with her options.The food itself lived up to our expectations and was served by Joe a very attentive and pleasant young man.

Food was average, the steak I had was a little overdone and there was a number of items on the menu which wasn't available. My wife ordered a cocktail and then was told they had no cream, which I would think would be a staple item in a cocktail bar and restaurant.

Family Fathers Day lunch. Lovely food and environment. Would highly recommend.

The pub and restaurant are fab, really nicely decorated and very clean. All staff are really friendly and will accomodate where possible, the food is incredible and service prompt.

Great food, excellent service and a lovely atmosphere, always a pleasure eating there.

Great meal,, no problems, staff very pleasant and service quick as always.

Great location, good food and excellent service. Shamrock about the weather but of course no one can control that!

Great venue, sat on the terrace for tea, place was full with a great vibe. The glorious weather helped.

Excellent menu and food, brilliant service and lovely setting.

Nice place, nice food. £17.50 for a burger is too expensive in my opinion.

Despite a function, service in the restaurant was prompt and attentive

Disappointed that menus on website did not reflect what was actually on offer. Would have liked to eat on the terrace but very limited unless you want burgers or pizza. Wouldn’t have come for lunch had we known.

Fantastic place. Food, service, views, atmosphere. All superb.

We visited for the first time yesterday, I wanted to for so long. I have to say everything was just wonderful. The building is beautiful, the views incredible and your restaurant is spotless. The staff were so friendly and welcoming but the food…wow! The best roast dinner I have ever eaten. We will definitely be back. Thankyou so much.

The service was quite good when we arrived, but as more guests arrived. It appeared that they was short staffed and it took quite a while for our food to arrive. But overall everything was very satisfactory l, things could have been executed better. The food was absolutely awesome though.

Really enjoyable, great service & food was delicious

Always excellent service, food, beer and atmosphere

We have been customers of the Fleece for many years. The food is consistently excellent with a menu which is both varied and interesting - Darren is an exceptional chef! The service was professional and efficient. We were very impressed

Coleslaw in a burger bun, too messy and food was OK just nit amazing

Been here a few times over the years and always loved it but the food this time was poor if I’m honest . We had beef Sunday lunch and a steak between us steak was ok nothing special but beef was tough and very fatty veg was just warm and almost raw which I didn’t mind but not so good for others I guess . Overall poor value for money because it isn’t the cheapest place to eat . Staff and service were very good although they got the drinks order wrong they were very efficient pleasant and polite .we noticed another couple send their meals back while we were there as well .I wouldn’t give our experience more than 4out of 10 on this occasion sorry

Very surprised with the Chaetae Briand no veg just few greens The portion size was small but that maybe as I am a Farmer

Unfortunately one of our burgers was cold and the pizza was undercooked. Twice our round of drinks didn’t arrive so we’re taken off the bill.

The food was amazing and staff were lovely and very attentive. would definitely recommend!

Dodd was ok,menu a bit limited. Service was at best average with several mistakes with errors on the bill.

Very good food and service throughout our experience

We held our ceremony and reception at The Fleece. It was the perfect wedding venue. The picturesque views surrounding The Fleece set the back drop for many special photos. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and were on hand to ensure every little detail was perfect and that the day ran smoothly. We would like to say a HUGE thank you to Carrie-Anne and the events team for making everything come together. The food was amazing and the canapés were delicious! The rooms were incredibly cozy and our guests enjoyed staying in them, the bridal suite was fantastic too! Once again thank you soo much to everyone at the fleece for making our special day truly amazing! We would highly recommend the fleece to anyone!

Lovely food and a nice atmosphere. Premium pricing. Staff are on hand. Was seated promptly and drinks were served quickly. Meal came within 5 minutes of ordering. Would reccomend.

Great food, great service in a wonderful location - we'll be back soon

Great views and food. Highly recommend “””””””””@“”

Food was average. Ordered eggs florentine and barely any smoked salmon. Eggs were not runny and it was not served on an English muffin but on a bread bun. Coffee and orange juice was nice. Friend ordered eggs Benedict and it came with bacon not ham which was on the menu.

Nice atmosphere & environment, food was poor and overpriced for the quality received

My wife and I go to his restaurant for lunch a couple of times a month and we've not been disappointed yet. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The menu is quite comprehensive and the food we've chosen has been delicious.

We often go to the Fleece for lunch with customers, and we are always impressed with the varied menu, service and attention to detail. We can't recommend the Fleece highly enough.

Bank holiday Monday treat, we both had the roast dinner and it was perfect, the beef tender and cooked just right. Service great. My only disappointment was that I looked at the menu on line and was looking forward to one of the dishes but the menu on offer was a much reduced version. Maybe because it was a bank holiday

Very good friendly service by the staff members and the food was great

Poor quality of Sunday Roast the Lamb in particular..childrens portion much too big for young children

Very good, friendly and efficient service with quality food as usual.

Overall a really positive experience. Three negatives: the crab starter didn’t taste of crab. I think it was bulked out with salad/veg ingredients and lemon juice. The whitebait were big, not the teeny tiny little fish that you would expect; we ordered children’s desserts at £3 each yet were charged £4 each. We wouldn’t have particularly minded but we never given an explanation. Minor things really. Overall great!

First time here, very impressed. Lovely food, brilliant service and a beautiful setting. We will definitely be back.

Menu choice different to website on the day. Poor vegetarian range, no specials board as advertised on website. Chateaubreand steak was not as good as expected. Food didn't all arrive at the same time. Hand to ask for cutlery, waitress had to take order a 2nd time cos she couldn't read her own writing. Payed the bill (in full) was asked if everything had been ok? No was the reply, wasn't given opportunity to discuss what had been the problems. Went to see bar manager to give feedback and all I got was lame excuses. Plus points lovely place. Me nor any of the other couples in my party will NOT be rushing back there

Good food served in a speedy manner by pleasant smiling waiters
