The Jolly Sailor Brewery in Selby

Lovely food and very friendly staff

Me and my girlfriend have been on and off going here for a while, but sadly today was a poor experience. Living local, it’s an ideal dog-walking location to then stop in and have a bite to eat. Sadly, today was not a good experience. We walked in the main entrance and saw a couple of reserved tables and some that did not have reserved on them. With the front being very busy and people loitering, it’s not an ideal place for two people and a dog to stand when there are already about 8 other people standing. Immediately when we saw a table with no reserved sign, we went to sit down. Unfortunately, a young blonde lady asked, “Can I help you?” with a poor tone and, frankly, quite a rude and abrupt attitude. The other lady with dark hair sat us down, but by that point, it was, in my opinion, a sour atmosphere left from the previous staff member. A simple “Hi guys” or “Hello, how are you?” and then, after exchanging pleasantries, checking if there is a seat available would have made all the difference. In the end, we decided to leave before ordering. We told the blonde lady, who said, “I am sorry to hear that,” to which I replied, “Next time, work on your manners when people come in.” Disappointed, as the food is genuinely quite good, but unfortunately today, I am afraid you have lost a customer for the future! **T-Post replied on their Facebook page to the same review below, with my replies being calm and honest. The reason I am posting this here is because I want people to see what an organisation does when they lie about how customers act. When there was CCTV which shows myself and my girlfriend getting up and leaving calmly and how they reply and speak to people that have been mistreated in their establishment. please see their reply attached.. as you can see it was completely mishandled by the owners/management and my review stands justified. If the owners will speak like this from criticism and feedback and If owners and management will speak to customers or former customers like this and allow staff to act like this with this mentality, then my review is honest and quite frankly it will be down to the calibre of who they employ. ** **to further add TPost have said they will release the CCTV footage which I agree with**

Yorkshire pudding not crispy or much taste like it was frozen, breakfast ok but forgiven because it is quite cheap, however service good and pub looks good inside. Worth going for a light breakfast and a pint, not sure I would risk a meal though after that soggy Yorkshire.

Lovely old fashioned pub with a nice atmosphere, play area for kids and with lovely service. The Sunday dinner was nice but a little over priced for what it was and would have preferred a little more option with what we received.

Post Office and café. A regular stop on bicycles for a sausage roll to keep as going. Lovely.
