THE NEW HUNTSMAN INN in Selby

We have just moved into the village and popped in for a drink quite late on the 23rd Jan. There were a few people outside in the smoking area who all said hello when we arrived, and it was the same when we went inside. Lovely friendly feel to the place and welcoming people. We are looking forward to popping in again.

Excellent accommodation, terrific helpful staff, awesome food & great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Best service ive ever received definitely would return everyone was so polite and will definitely return

We visited as a family for Friday curry night. We love the friendly welcome, and hospitality. The chicken was so tender, and tasty, and the accompaniments were delicious.

We stayed with a group of friends around a 15 minute walk away from The Huntsman and what a great find it was. The selection of drinks on offer and the friendliness of Peter & Pete made our weekend and to top it off we had a quality Sunday lunch served with all the trimmings . Well done 👏

Stayed in a local holiday home , 6 couples for our Xmas do . Had a lovely walk , lovely fire , friendly pub . Returned for Sunday lunch , the sticky toffee pudding was amazing loved our lunch , Thanks big Pete n little Pete . We will be back

After a day of packing boxes a very welcome Sunday lunch and warm welcome was much appreciated. Food was excellent

What a great find 12 of us on a weekend away Never know what to expect in a village pub but lovely atmosphere Friendly staff Sunday lunch was gorgeous Highly recommended

Just had Sunday lunch me and paul excellent food good service warm and friendly atmosphere would recommend this pub

I regularly walk 2 miles to the Huntsman instead of going to 2 nearer pubs. I often find myself just popping out for a "couple" then find myself having tea because that looks nice what their eating over there. Food for me is a minefield as I'm dairy and gluten free but they always manage to sort me out with something delicious. The selection of drinks is fantastic and reasonably priced. Friendly locals makes it an entertaining evening.

Absolutely brilliant food at a great price. 100% recommend. Has everything good food good atmosphere and very welcoming staff.

I play in the darts and domino team for the Huntsman at Drax Peter and Peter are both welcoming and make you feel comfortable and treat you like a friend. The boy's regularly cook food for the team so I already new the food was very good. So this past weekend took family which included a six year old for Sunday Lunch. We do not eat out very often so this is a treat for us. The service and food was amazing very relaxed atmosphere. We all had separate meats on our Sunday Dinner and we were all impressed. Thank you Pete, Pete and your wonderful team.

We had our reception at the Huntsman in Drax. Pete & Pete were amazing fantastic 80s buffet, staff made all our friends and family welcome. Highly recommended for a wedding reception or any occasion. Thanks again Pete & Pete xx

Had a wonderful Christmas Dinner at the Huntsman, amazing food and super service. Great pint too. Very friendly staff and a lovely, cozy pub.

Booked a table for a mid week catch up with a friend, food was excellent and the welcome warm. The small plates are anything but and perfect for a mid week treat

Went to huntsman with family and friends great night brilliant staff live music good food will definitely be back

Great cosy pub with friendly & welcoming staff,recommending wine & the foods pretty good too.Will definitely be returning.

Super food great environment a must 👌 lovely staff . Beer 🍺 second to none Carn wait till next visit

We went to the pub for an early evening meal with 3 generations of the family. The bar has a great range of spirits, wines beers and some of the nicest cider I have tried in many a year. Our meals were all excellent from...

The Huntsman at Drax never disappoints! Another amazing meal with superb landlords, the two Petes and their fab bar staff. The food was beautiful with a cosy friendly atmosphere. The pub is spotless and quant with friendly locals too, even a horse in the garden....

Great Meal at the Huntsman, this time a Beef Sunday Dinner which was succulent and tender. Have to add the napkins were extremely well folded and very good quality, adding to the tone and ambiance of the establishment.

Had a couple of specials off the menu, totally delicious and very good value for money, the staff were friendly and attentive, the beer and spirit selection for a village pub was astonishing

This local pub gives amazing food and a friendly welcome and dog friendly. Highly recommended will definitely be going back soon. Thank you Pete and Pete

Such a warm and friendly experience. Called in unexpectedly and was welcomed with a great select of drinks and a delicious Sunday lunch!! Would highly recommend to everyone!! Thank you to the petes for making us all welcome xx

Came out o the huntsman for a quick bite and a few pints. Got a tremendous welcome from the landlords and the locals! Made to feel like one of the regulars and served some incredible hand pull ale from Yorkshire heart brewery! Had a gorgeous...

Really nice food one of the best home cooked Sunday dinners around the area and a massive selection of spirits and beer.

Its a lovely old pub with very friendly service. The food was excellent. I had the veggie lasagne which was a little too large - i ate all the very tasty chips but had to leave the equally delicious garlic bread. The hubby had the...

Had the super sized mixed grill tonight and it was delicious. Steak beautifully cooked medium rare and accompanied by chicken, gammon, onion rings, snaith sausages, 2 fried eggs, tomatoes and a generous helping of chips. Make sure you are very hungary before attempting this monster....

A most friendly hidden gem with a great choice of drinks including cask ales and the best cottage pie I have ever experienced! Thank you to the Huntsman team😃

Called in for a drink and was welcomed by the chap behind the bar with a big smile. The place is Well presented Witt nice interior. Enjoyed the orchard thrives. Thank you

The Huntsman have recently introduced a few additional options for a Sunday lunch including pies and a fantastic roast/boiled gammon. The Huntsman continues to deliver in both food and atmosphere, couldn't ask for a better local.

Came for a sunday lunch with a friend, a lovely warm welcome with a friendly atmosphere. The food was at an excellent standard and was not disappointed. I could not recommend this pub enough, will definetly be returning.

Came for Sunday lunch today and was not disappointed. The food was lovely and such a large portion, service was amazing highly recommend great value for money.

I went with my friend for a Sunday dinner, welcomed warmly by staff and served quickly. The food came out within 10 minutes, a big loaded plate (I had a small) topped with a huge Yorkshire pudding! Really enjoyed it, carrots flavourful and cooked well and the gammon was delicious. Will definitely be coming back with my family. Big thanks to the Peters!

Superb pub, have now been twice for food and on both times the service was fantastic, the staff are warm and welcoming, and the fresh homemade food is phenomenal. The family members in the group still talk about how much they enjoyed there meal here, so it has left a lasting memory for all the good reasons. When they are next up I am pretty sure we will be going again!!!!! Great place!!!!!!!

Top drawer food served with a smile in a very friendly village pub. Sunday lunch was fantastic and the Guiness is the best I’ve had, Give it a go.

We came for a Sunday lunch. The food was absolutely fantastic. The home made Yorkshire puddings were massive and melted in my mouth. I had turkey (I know you would think I’d had enough). It was so so soft, it was gorgeous. As ever, the portion size was very generous and the cost extremely reasonable. A lovely atmosphere, the landlords and staff are very attentive and make sure everything goes well.I am going home now for a rest as I am absolutely full!!Thank you to the Peter's and team

Had an excellent Sunday lunch last weekend, thoroughly enjoyable, the Peters could not be more sociable landlords. We thought that they dealt with a particularly troublesome couple efficiently and brilliantly, as they complained about their whole meal. We could not fault ours (although we would have like our carrots a tad more soft!!!) and this couple could have spoilt the afternoon for us but credit to the boys as they apologised and away the couple went without paying for either a drink or their meal!!! Imagine our surprise to read a bad review from that lunchtime. Their restaurant was full and everyone else were very happy with their meals and desserts, well done boys, we will be back, thank you

My hubby & I booked in for Sunday lunch after reading reviews that gave us the impression that the food was good home cooked food & excellent value for money etc . We both went for roast beef , the meal arrived with something that looked like dog food on the plate & tasted off (the meat), the roast potatoes was black & the carrots had clearly not seen boiling water . I did complain & decided not to have the meal replaced has didn’t trust the meat . Surely the chef would not have sent the meal out with roast potatoes that looked like lumps of coal . Disgusting to be true full.

We recently went for Sunday lunch after reading the reviews on trip advisor. The Sunday lunch was good home cooked food, very reasonably priced and generous sized portions. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal, the delicious desserts and the friendliness of the staff. Would definitely return.

The "non Sunday" menu has recently been overhauled at the huntsman and has got some real corkers on it. The two Peters continue to ramp up the standards at Drax and it's well worth a return visit if you've been in the last year or so.

The new addition of quiche special to the menu is perfect for a summer meal. Homemade and cooked to perfection served with salad and new potatoes, heaven on a plate

Took a group of friends for Sunday lunch. Good food plated up. Followed by pud and coffee. Great value with efficient and friendly service from Peter and Peter.

Who could want more from a village pub! Great atmosphere and welcome by the 2 Petes. Food is amazing and all freshly cooked - even real chips which is a rarity these days. Sunday lunch is delish and excellent value. Put it on your list of places to visit - you will want to go back for more!! Kx

Wow what a hidden gem, would highly recommend. Excellent food, excellent service and friendly. Professional staff.

Been doing drinks and evening meals for a while but recently discovered the lunch menu which has recently been updated and there's some absolute corkers on it. Chicken wings and Nachos are brilliant.

Yet again, another fabulous meal at the Huntsman in Drax. We have been lots of times and the food is always of great quality, home cooked and very fresh! A good sized plate of food too! Our ‘go to’ pub for a guaranteed enjoyable and fulfilling meal. To enhance our dining experience are the landlords who are always very welcoming, very friendly and great company! You won’t be disappointed!!!!! Give the huntsman a go you won’t be disappointed!!

Had an excellent meal on Saturday night with family the food was excellent plenty of it lovely friendly staff the place was very clean Pete and Pete it’s a credit to you both in what you have done with the Huntsman keep up the excellent work

Excellent food. Very good value for money and very pleasant service. A very nice pub with excellent hosts. Extensive range of drinks. Very good cask beer !! Well done Pete and Pete the pub is an absolute credit to you both !

Fantastic pub, and best one for miles around. We visit regularly on our walks, and the food is excellent and homemade. There are a good range of beers , with a great selection of real ales. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of drinks and food on offer. Went today and had the sticky toffee pudding - WOW! Homemade,just like your grandma used to make!

Went last week one evening with a friend. The pub has a real cosy feel to it, the owners give you a very warm welcome.

Went to The Huntsman to meet friends and to have a meal.

Enjoyed an amazing Sunday Lunch with family - had 2 children with us. Staff catered for all our needs - food was delicious (beef was so tender!) Portions were generous and the dessert was yummy. Hosts were extremely welcoming and the pub has a lovely warm feel. Definitely recommend a visit.

Really nice food and service - good beers. Two of us had the beef and one the pork. Home made Yorkshire puds. Really reasonably priced too. Thanks - we'll be returning!

Super Sunday lunch. Choice of roast meats with all the trimmings, available in small or standard size.All the ladies had small and all the men large!! Everybody was happy with their meals. The local Church was open the day we visited (worth a look around) so we came back to the pub for coffee and pudding after. All the food was delicious and very good value for money. Will be back to try lunch or midweek meals. Thank you

Went last night for the first time with relatives and what a welcome, the peters were lovely made me feel like I was a regular and couldn’t do enough. The food was amazing and plentiful. They adapted a meal to support my dietary needs. Can’t wait to go back.

The first visit was for the week day menu, plenty of good quality grub was enjoyed at reasonable prices.

Wide range of drinks ale to spirits , friendly atmosphere , good hosts , good value for money and excellent meals. A relaxing and cosy tasteful newly refudished pub. Dog friendly. We enjoy going here its relaxing and we are looking foward to our drinks and meals here again.

Had dinner with a group of friends. The landlords of this pub certainly know what they are doing. Great quality meats from a top butchers. The best chips I’ve had for ages. Good choice of drinks also at fab prices. Certainly supporting their village customers and local community

Been for so many great meals in the Huntsman top notch is now just their average. Can't recommend the food and the friendly atmosphere enough, get yourself down there.

We've just recently moved to Drax and having access to a good local pub was a requirement for our house search. Peter and Peter have not disappointed as their pub is a fantastic addition to the village. Food is great, sunday lunches are particularly good and the beer/gin selection is both well thought out and plentiful! Looking forward to spending more time in our new local and would highly recommend for both local drinkers and traveling diners!

Went to The Huntsman again and was not disappointed again great meal good beer and the most fantastic hosts Peter and Peter, they are always pleasant and great hosts they are building up a superb reputation Keep it up guys will certainly be going there again

My family have been going to this little pub for many years. Peter and peter have taken it over and made it better than ever. The food is always of the highest standard. The service is second to none. And peter and peter are lovely. All staff will go out there way to help you and make your visit the best. It offsets a wide range of food and drinks to suit anyone’s taste. I personally love there Sunday lunch. Is a little gem this place. A lovely quaint family pub.

Visited 3 times over the weekend and had a whole range of things to eat from snacks to Sunday lunch. Every meal was cooked to perfection and of great quality and value for money. Homemade chips are the best in the area!! Huge selection of high quality beers, guns and wines to accompany any meal on the menu. The welcome from the two Peters is second to none.

Called in for lunch on Wednesday, was nice and homely,with all you classic village/local pub features, food was tasty and very good value,with an excellent selection of deserts, will definatley be going back for more.

Went to hunt for lunch on Saturday great atmosphere owner's were so polite . The food was amazing I had hunter chicken and was perfect would highly recommend this village pub

Visited The Huntsman on Saturday with a group of friends following a walk in the local area. The pub had a great atmosphere and the landlords were friendly, helpful and very welcoming. We enjoyed a lovely meal which was very good value for money and then enjoyed the sunshine in the beer garden. Well worth a visit!

Excellent fish and chips provided for 11 people at the time agreed. The landlords are very friendly, made everyone welcome and nothing was too much trouble.

Visited Saturday with a group of friends, 11 of us in total. Our food all arrived at the same time, the fish was really chunky and tasty and the home made chips were lovely. Thank you to the two Peters for your good food and hospitality.

Quiet lunchtime meal, very tasty a selection of fillings, fantastic value at £3.95, warm welcoming hosts and a great selection of real ale and premium drinks

This is the first time that we visited The Huntsman. When we entered we were welcomed immediately. a lovely atmosphere with a range of beers including Timothy Taylors, one of my favourites. We ordered lunch and thought their selection of food was good for the size of the pub. A lovely seating area, with clean tables and cutlery. Good value food as well with £12.00 for two. My Beef and ale pie was delicious and I liked the way the landlords asked whether we wanted anything such as more gravy. My wife had hunter's chicken, which was equally tasty, also my daughter's Lasagne.We all enjoyed our food and will go again. Everything a pub should be.

As always down @ The Huntsman “The Peters” have a warm welcome for everyone that visits the venue. The food is always fantastic as well as the hand-pull ales ... The Orchard Thieves cider is always the highlight of my visit!

Lovely spur of the moment supper tonight. Without a doubt everything cooked from scratch and very tasty. The homemade chips and onion rings are amazing!!

Me and the fiancee suddenly craved a Sunday dinner. We had a quick look online and found The Huntsman. We live in Selby, but it was worth the drive!

Eaten here 3 times this week, by ourselves, with friends and with family. We have all enjoyed truly scrumptious meals, all homemade. My hubby's favourite has to be the home made pie (either the chicken and leek or steak, he loves them both) im a vegetarian and the Peters have gone out of their way to ensure I have a variety of choices, the toad in the hole and the haloumi and home made chips are particularly good. It is so nice to walk into somewhere and feel at 'home' but that's is what the Peters have done to our little village pub. The Sunday lunches are a treat, no carvery and plentry of it, choice of meats, gluten free and veggie options, we are spoilt for choice, thank you both for giving us a smashing pub we love to go to.

Amazing pie award winning. all food home made the Pete's that own it are doing a me and my family love it . Great atmosphere all ways real welcome never hungry when leave.

Visited the pub for dinner with my mum, dad and pregnant sister. We all thoroughly enjoyed the visit, plenty of choice of soft drinks for my sister and dad who was driving. Very reasonably priced alcoholic drinks too. I would highly recommend the steak and...

The Huntsman always has a warm welcome from the two Peter's and the food has always been first class. The Suday Roast is something not to be missed!

Eat here regularly with family and friends. Beautiful food, the pub is welcoming and friendly with excellent service.

Had a lovely time celebrating my little brothers 8th birthday lovely staff even joined in singing happy birthday

Another great evening in The Huntsman. Food was beautiful as always wicked prawn cocktail yummy!!! Atmosphere always good and friendly.....

You couldn’t ask for two better hosts than The Peter’s who are always have a warm welcome whenever I visit.

Great little village pub with exceptional hosts, excellent beers and great food at a good price and a dog friendly bar area.

What a lovely place the two peters have made the Huntsman! So welcoming and friendly with gorgeous food to add! No better place to go for a surf & turf and the chicken Alfredo is highly recommended! Perfect to take the family too!

Returned to The Huntsman in Drax on Saturday night and once again was not disappointed. Firstly the two 'Petes' are welcoming hosts and make you feel at home from the off. The great value menu has something for everyone but a special mention has to go to the 'Pies' (Steak and Chicken and Leek', which my Pie Connoisseur husband has labelled as one of the best ever. If you're not full from your main course  you have to try one of 'Pixie's Puddings', a homemade selection of mouth watering desserts that are hard to resist. Finally, they have started doing Sunday lunch, which we haven't had time to try yet but which I have no doubt will match the other high quality offerings of The Huntsman. Keep up the good work Petes!

Some of the best food I’ve eaten, great atmosphere in the pub and warm welcoming hosts and a great selection of drinks

Nice to have a good pub in the village at last. Food is good, landlords are friendly, meals are good value, very nice steaks

We are very lucky that the two Peters have come to our village and revitalised The Huntsman. The atmosphere in our pub is absolutely wonderful. They are two of the nicest people you could wish to meet, the food is really lovely, we have been through the whole menu now and can thoroughly recommend you come for a meal, however, I wouldn't want it to become too popular as it is our secret ha ha

First visit here & not the last, a great welcome from our host. A good pub menu, a lovely warm atmosphere. Plenty of parking space, a pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord to wash down an excellent meal.

Just had another great meal in the Huntsman, 3 clean plates tells its own story. This is back to be a great pub with fab food thanks to Pete & Pete the new landlords.

Always a warm welcome here from the two Peters. Great value good quality food, perfect for a tasty treat. Home made steak pie is fabulous

Popped in for a pint and some food. The pint was great. The food was plentiful and reasonable priced.
