We were looking for somewhere to celebrate a family birthday for 8 of us plus two young children, and wanted somewhere we could all drive a similar distance to, hence we found the Flying Childers. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, from booking on the phone, serving at the bar and delivering food to the table. Nothing was too much trouble. We were advised to pre order the food as we were a large group which we did. They asked if we'd like the child's meal served along with the starters (which worked out very well for a slow eater), sorted out candles on the birthday cake we had brought with us and loaned us a knife to cut the cake. The food was all served quickly, was hot and tasty and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. There was a good family atmosphere and it is clearly popular with the locals. We had a really nice relaxed meal and would like to thank all the staff for their hard work.

Came for my son’s 7th birthday, we are a big family of 9, ordered all the food at the bar with drinks, staff were very helpful and very organised. Including drinks and food it totalled to £110 which I think is fantastic, good quality food, it was amazing, all cooked fast and correct. Will 100% be visiting this pub again. Thank you too all the staff for looking after us and making my sons birthday special!

Not been to this establishment for a while and sadly it was not a good experience, The food we had was not to a good standard.The fish we had was a grey colour inside. The steak we ordered was over cooked.And the chicken burger was really over cooked.When the server came to clear our table he asked if everything was ok and I told him the problems he never replied and just walked away which I found very rude and unprofessional.

8 Months ago I wrote a terrific review, goodness knows whats happened now. Different staff, no one coming mid meal to see how your food is. No mustard, no fish, no fries. The fryer didn't work. I ordered a blue/ rare steak that came to me like shoe leather with rock hard dried up onion ring. The steak was so dry and salty. I hope they sort their self out soon and the Manageress starts being customer focused and friendly as before. We looked forward to coming here as a family every 10 days and felt valued.

Came in today for a meal with my other half! Been coming here for years and definitely wasn’t the best service nor food! I had a chicken burger with cheese. Didn’t come out with cheese so got sent back to then receive it again with cheese on it. It was not melted so just a square! I then found a hair in my chips so I sent back to the bar and explained the issue. The lady that dealt with me, took my plate into the kitchen and said nothing so I walked away. She then came back with my meal (that I didn’t want) however I felt pressured into eating it! When received my meal back the lady said “the kitchen staff have added an extra piece of cheese” this was burnt so tasted burnt! I didn’t get offered a free drink, a free dessert nor half my money back for the meal! My other half then ate his so half of it got left!

This has become a great pub under current ownership. Pool, darts and Sky Sports in the bar. Great value food menu; food is served everywhere but there is also a nice separate area in the lounge. Staff very friendly and know how to treat customers properly. Heated patio area and good pub garden to the front. Sheltered smoking area to the back (probably more of a.vaping area these days). Children are welcome with Kids' menu colouring in and games. Welcoming atmosphere and we'll worth a visit.

Perfect Cosy warm ambience and friendly atmosphere. A local pub for anybody and anybody. Great for families, couples and singles. Your made to feel welcome by staff and customers. The food is Second to none. The Manager, under managers and staff can’t do enough to make your visit the best. We started coming here when the great Marsden's family pub chain took over and we are never disappointed. The staff care and the premisses is spotless too. Weve gone through the whole menu by now and everything is first class. We cant wait to book for the Christmas menu as we know we will be in for a treat plus the prices are so cheap for the quality of the food. Were always stuffed when we finish eating and wouldn't go anywhere else now as this pub is in a class of its own. Thank you to all the staff for the great service you provide at the “flying childers” Bessacarr The McCaw Family

I'd booked a table and checked twice, butvwhen we got there we weren't booked in. Plenty of tables free which was strange on a Saturday night as it's only tiny. We were sat next to a curtained off area which the staff kept going past us and into. Friend had to ask for water twice, no mashed potato at 6pm, soup tasted like tinned, ordered 2 cocktails which never came and when queried were told, " I only take the orders, out of my hands". Didn't stay for dessert. Very disappointing and won't be going again.

We dropped in on spec', we'd just visited Yorkshire Wildlife Park and were looking for somewhere to eat. We were seated in the restaurant area and ordered two meals from the Specials Board and a child's meal from the menu. The food was great, good portions all round, the child's Gammon and chips would have stumped an adult. The staff were attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend and visit again if we're in the area.
