The Sloop Inn in Selby

Parked up in our motorhome excellent place to stay very peaceful, pub is brilliant with a great atmosphere, food was spot on, facilities are adequate no shower block but that’s no problem for us personally as we used our own shower, will definitely return as not far from home so will bring our car next time to venture further into the village, overall a nice friendly welcoming place to stay xx

Whilst visiting my mum-in -law for the weekend we decided we'd like to take her out for Sunday lunch. Remembering my husband's love of The Sloop many, many years ago I Googled. The reviews were very good - decision made. Arriving at the pub, now awash with flowers, both in hanging baskets and in the pretty pub garden, we went inside. The Sloop although now extended has firmly kept its links to the past, it's a pub as it should be, a rarity nowadays. The carvery was superb, the lamb, the Yorkshire puddings (home made) and the varied selection of vegetables were all delicious, a credit to the chef Angela, who is also the landlady. The character of the place gave it a lovely ambience, the staff were friendly and the service was good. The Sunday lunch was simply the best I have ever had and we all agreed. We live in Shropshire but next time we visit my mum-in-law we will be back. Thank you The Sloop!

Not been here since I was a kid and it was great to return. The pub hasn’t changed. Full of character and friendly people. We all had the Sunday lunch and it was honestly delicious - we’ll be back! Well done to the great staff that were on today 👍

One of those places you visit, but can never find some where quite like it. Best landlord and lady you will meet. Food is good, beverages are spot on and the general atmosphere is to be experienced first hand it can't be explained. Will 100% visit again. Thanks.

Arrived bank holiday monday to the best people ever. Showed us were we needed to park showed us water toilets & electric hook up. Unpacked plugged in The Sloop Inn time😃. What a amazing landlord & staff. So very welcoming so kind going out of there way to help with anything. No food served Monday but they went out of there way and made pizzas. Tuesday arranged for chinise delivery. This is such a friendly place. Arrived strangers left as friends. The customers who came were also welcoming. Beautiful pub with fantastic people. See you in a few weeks for round 2! Thank you for your kindness xx

Stayed on the lovely little caravan site, owned by the pub, a nice site with fresh water, electricity and waste water disposal. The Inn itself is a great find, the owners and staff are very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble, there's a little wait for your food in the pub restaurant but we'll worth it as everything is home cooked, fresh, well presented and beautifully cooked, out first visit, but we WILL BE BACK.

8 of us stayed here Fri Sat 4th and 5th Feb. We all Absolutely enjoyed it.We was made to feel very welcome by all the Sloop team, and the locals too. Bob the landlord top man. Put us onto lifts into Selby for all 8 of us, which was a great help, we came back to the Site Sat evening had a great time with the regulars such a good laugh, great prices best pizzas I've ever tasted. We will all be deffo coming back. It rained heavy on the Sat night. And a member of our party got stuck in mud not sure of the name of the guy who helped us free our motorhome but he was a star he did everything he could to get us off the site when the slip mats didn't work he kindly got his land rover and towed us off. Couldn't thank him enough and when we return we owe that man a large drink. This site is a must visit. Thanks for great weekend Sandra.

Sister booked here for four of us. First class pub, first class service, roaring log burner, best carvery I have had in a long time. Super meat and veg. First class all round.

Stayed in our campervan for 2 nights, good value at £12 a night with electric, be aware there is no shower block, but there is an outside toilet. Good bar with plenty of choice and a nice beer garden very welcoming atmosphere.

Well I searched trip adviser for nearby carveries. This place had really good reviews, and I wasn’t disappointed. The meat (I had lamb and pork) was so tasty.....My partner had beef. The food is definitely home cooked, and is just like being at home without cooking. It’s a small friendly pub, with helpful staff. I think I’ve found the perfect carvery to bring friends and family. I travelled 12 miles to get here, and I’d do it again and again. Thank you for a lovely Sunday lunch guys, keep up the good work.

An absolute fantastic eating experience been a couple of time's now and the food gets better and better super host's Bob and Angela thanks for your hospitality enjoyed by all see you all soon

I can’t fault the Sunday lunch here. We have tried it several times. The food is outstanding, all freshly cooked with plenty of choice. The staff are friendly and welcoming. I am certainly very happy to recommend this venue for excellent food and service.

Outstanding Sunday lunch with home made food and lovely friendly staff. Pleasant afternoon to spend with friends enjoying nice music with lovely atmosphere. We've been a number of times now and definitely one of our favourites. Well worth a visit.

We have been here several times and never disappointed. The landlord and his wife are very friendly . We look forward to going at weekends, the ale is good especially John smiths magnet. We also take our little dog . Good value for money .

Owner needs to wash not only mouth out with soap, but most of the customers. Never heard as much swearing in front of kids. Overpriced and left me feeling ill rest of day. Try mcdonalds, at least the staff don't abuse customers as much.

Disgusted that my 3 year old was playing with a toy that made noise while it was quiet so instead of having a word with me the landlord after having a few drinks decided it would be appropriate to shout “no” numerous times at a 3 year old child. Took a lot to keep myself calm seeing my child’s reaction. A real joke

one of the best sunday lunches around . very tasty food . i would say sunday lunch is what grandma use to make :)

Had this place recommended as a great Sunday lunch. The food was very good, however......... The poor service, strange locals and the general untidyness of the place spoiled it for us. I should have checked the FSA rating first

It's a local pub, does food, decent beer and good prices. Sunday carvery is a proper Sunday lunch. Popular little caravan/ campsite. It's got characters and character. A friendly atmosphere. All that warmth you expect in a real pub. Like going home somewhere else. People from the Netherlands turn up on cycling holidays because someone over there recommended the place. That's eclectic mix that is The Sloop.

No esperaba estar comiendo la cena del domingo en domingo, pero como estábamos de paso pensamos darle una oportunidad ya que no hemos estado antes.Fue un asador y fue absolutamente delicioso.El personal era encantador y muy acogedor.Sin duda volveremos.5 estrellas de nosotros.

First visit to this wonderful inn, with the sapphire and steel bike rally on the campsite, the landlord and landlady and all the staff were so friendly, the food is first class, and to reiterate other comments the Sunday dinners are just awesome, will certainly be back and thank you again to all of you for a fantastic weekend.

Best ..friendly pup around nice food nice people. Good hosts do yourself a favour call for a drink and a bite to eat and find out for yourself ..thanks Graham

Nos alojamos aquí el sábado por la noche en nuestra autocaravana (30.04.2016) después de ver en una página web para escalas de pub.Hospitalidad y excelente comida de pub de muy buen nivel. Champiñones con ajo eran probablemente las más que hemos experimentado garlicy pero muy sabroso.Encontramos a un pariente que vivía localmente y que iba a recomendar el Sloop Inn a sus amigos.

Absolutamente imprescindible para el domingo cena de parrilla.

We went to this pub with our campervan friends for our xmas dinner,the meal was excellant,everyone had the turkey except me I had the salmon with a lovely tasting dressing ,the young waitresses were very attentive and professional.The pub had a warm friendly atmosphere with a good selection of drinks served by a very nice barman.

Este es mi pub local, los propietarios Angie y Bob siempre hacerte sentir bienvenido, que tienen capacidad para todos los partidos y eventos ... Que celebrar eventos de caridad durante todo el año por miles de libras.

Good basic food and large portions. Ate here Friday/Saturday night and Sunday lunch. Would recommend it to anyone who is in the area. Staff are friendly and attentive.

We had not eaten at The Sloop in a very long time so decided to pay it a visit for Sunday Dinner on the 13th of September. We were not disappointed in any way with the meal we had.Choice of 3 meats with the lamb cooked to perfection. All vegetables were fresh with a great variety. Not over cooked to a soggy mass and still with some crispness in them. The cauliflower cheese was very tasty and the mini roast potatoes the best I have had in a long time. It was nice to have the gravy brought to the table in a gravy boat and not having to get it out of the large containers you usually see with the ladles.A good selection of sweets can be had, the treacle sponge very hot and very tasty!All staff were pleasant, helpful and courteous. We had 2 carvery's, 2 drinks and shared a sweet and thought it was exceptional value for money for the £20.05 we paid.Highly recommend the Sunday Carvery here and we hope to return again sometime soon.

.... but good honest home cooking it is :)Spent the weekend with a group of friends camped out in the basic but well maintained camp ground out the back the pub.Breakfast & dinners are among the best we've had.The owners and their helpers could not be friendlier or better, they looked after us all very well indeed. Even the rooster in the hen run was well behaved, crowing just enough to let us know he was there but not too early & not too often.Recommended for a weekend with your tent, camper or caravan.

We always know that if we have a drive out to the Sloop, we'll get a nice welcome and a wonderful Sunday lunch. The meat is cooked to perfection, the veg are delicious, lovely Yorkshire puds and your own gravy boat. It really does take some beating! The pub is a cosy little place with a real fire in winter. All the staff are friendly and polite. Get your map out and look for Temple Hirst. You'll be glad you did!

We went on Valantines day and the 3 course meal we had was beautiful and value for money. The Sloop is a traditional pub with a great atmospher and friendly people not one of these themed places,

My wife and myself had been meaning to visit the Sloop for years after hearing good things about it, shame we left it so long.We arrived at 5.30, thirty minutes before they started to take orders for food but enjoyed drinks and a friendly chat in the bar. A very warm and friendly atmosphere.The owner, a lovely lady took our order we couldn't resist the homemade burgers made out of rump steak. We ate outside in the lovely garden. Could not fault the burger, real chips, onion rings. Excellent.The Guinness was spot on as well. The Sloop is a bit out of the way but well worth a visit....or 2

The sloop inn is a favourite of mine and my husband, we go often enough! Went for a meal last night and despite taking a little longer than usual, due to the kitchen being heavily understaffed and a caravan rally on site, it was beautiful as usual, will definitely be returning

I have been home 20 minutes I only live 5 miled from the pub I left home at 6.30 n returned at 9.10 after only a starter n main n one drink. the pub as a lovely warm welcome we was the first people in there too order food we ordered at 6.45 had a starter at 7.00 and our main came at 7.50 two steaks one medium and one rare. (one word) crematured after being disappointed with the 8 quarters of mushrooms on the starter I decided to send the steaks back the young chappy was more than happy to help. but we didnt then receive our re made meal till 8.20 the steak was then cooked ok but in all this time the childs fish fingers chips n beans had still not arrived when it did arrive it was fish fingers n mash no veg no beans no sauce. the chips rather greasy on the steaks n the fish gingers was cheap n nasty. the waiter brought the bill which had 2 starters 2 mains n a Childs on but yeat the total said £63 when I added the meals up it came to 31.75 so I waited and waited and waited some more for the waiter who never came back so I went to the bar n explained the bar man apolagised n took my money. I was very upset as these reviews read good n the pub us in a lovely setting but was a very poor stressfull evening..... won't return

If you are looking for your food to be a picture on a plate and come in minute quantities then The Sloop is not for you, but if you are looking for food that is well presented, comes in generous portions and most importantly tastes great then, The Sloop is for you. Well done Angie and Bob.

walked in bought a beer, asked if we were bikers and we said yes, was introduced to Bob the landlord who is a biker, never made so welcome, had a twenty minute chat, shared some silly stories, my friends and I will certainly back to soak up the friendly atmosphere, well happy

It was a cold Thursday night, the cupboards were empty, didn't fancy fish n chips so we headed to The Sloop Inn for our tea. Angie and Bob are the hosts and both are welcoming. The fire was roaring as we walked in, the hand pull real ale was fantastic as Bob keeps probably the best pint of handpull in the area and our tea was... fantastic! Fiona got the liver & onions on a big dollop of mash which was really tasty and I ordered the 16oz rump steak, which came with HOMEMADE chips (just like me gran used to do them!) onions, mushrooms, peas & cooked tomato. As soon as it was placed in front of me I was in heaven. The steak was an inch thick and dominated the plate! I'd ordered it medium and it was perfect. nicely pink in the middle but not oozing blood - Angie can cook steak! We ate the lot! The Sloop Inn only uses top quality meats from local farms and you can really taste the quality. We left the Sloop with our bellies full and money still in our wallets because this place is not only great quality but good value too - they don't over charge. What you get is great food, local village pub atmosphere, open fire and real ale - just how a pub should be! 10/10

Fabulous foodGreat Host Bob.... Gorgeous Hostess AngieFriendly LocalExtremely Warm And Welcoming........

If you haven't been....good. Don't go. More for me! You know somewhere is really good when you have to wait for a table. Angela really puts a fab Sunday roast together however more roast tatys please....then again she's seen the size of my butt! A great indoor outdoor dinning room . Great for kiddies and run by a family who pull together and create a great atmosphere.

We are regulars at The Sloop Inn, Temple Hirst, the landlady Angie & landlord Bob are wonderful, helpful friendly & always welcoming. They events all year round - we enjoy them all, the duck race in every May is always for charity. They also have a superb restaurant serving delicious hot & cold food, we have the carvery most Sunday's If you're in the area you must call in!!

The Sloop is a bit of a hidden gem we found when cycling some quiet byways south of Selby. We passed on a weekend midmorning about 10.15 without any intention of making a stop, but were seduced by the sunny morning and the roadside sign saying call in for breakfast. A bargain £5 won us a full English with toast and coffee all included, which we enjoyed in a beautifully peaceful grassy garden. A treat.

I have visited the sloop to eat on many occasions and have always enjoyed it. There is a bar snack and restaurant menu with a specials board which is updated quite often. The last time i went was with a group 2 of us had chicken and the other two steaks. The chicken was spot on and the steak was cooked just right 1 medium, the other medium rare. All the meals were served with salad, proper chips and a nice pepper sauce with the steaks. The owner called Angie served us, she was very quick and has a lovely relaxed sense of humour. If you want a good pub atmosphere with good well cooked food then give this place a try
