Wetherby town centre pub. Parking on street and car park very close by. Restrictions apply so watch out. Surprisingly pleasant Sunday afternoon visit although you have to accept the Sunday roast meal.

Handy location as it is on the way into town. Good selection of Ales, there is a beer garden which is great when the sun is out. The premises is very clean and has a welcoming atmosphere. A pool table is available and is reasonable at 50p per game.

Where do I start... walked into the pub and asked if they were still serving food and the staff behind the bar said "yeah the menus are still other table." There was no advice on steak night, The food was very nice but the staff were very apporling, they were very rude and the way they spoke when we finished our dinner was not good either. They never asked if our food was nice or anything.

Pumpkin soup FULL of inedible woody seed husks. Upon complaining, we were told that the soup was "artisan" and offered another bowl. The chef's definition of artisan is clearly throw entire vegetables (seeds and all) into some stock and blitz. Hmmm. This came on top of our order being lost in the first place. Fish finger sandwich was good though.

A BIG shout out to team Swan for the family 'SwanStock' day they put on, on the 10th August 2024 (yesterday at the time this review was written). Live bands, magician, BBQ and free bouncy castle for the kids. The atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed and everybody had a great day from start to finish. The bar staff were (as always) superb in dealing with the orders. Although shattered by the end of the night the girls served quickly and with smiles. Girls, you rock. Thank you very much to Hayley and the team for putting on such a brilliant, FREE event. Much love from BlueBeard 😁❤️

Just called in after doing a car boot (not local) and made to feel welcome, plenty of parking behind in Morrisons and most important, the young girl and lad behind the bar were so attentive, pandering to our demands for coffees and teas, serving them as quick as beers and wines for the group. Thank you! The management obviously pick their staff carefully and it doesn’t go unnoticed.

We booked to visit for dinner last minute after finding that we’d left the nearby Stockeld Park later than expected and are very happy that we came. The pub itself was a lovely mix of traditional pub and eating area. It was accommodating for our party of 8 which included 4 children aged 6 and under. The staff were all friendly, made us feel welcome and checked in throughout the visit to make sure we were ok. The food itself was lovely. We ordered from the Sunday menu and the portions were generous and we all left feeling satisfied. There was a good selection of alcohol free drinks available too which is always a bonus when people in the group are driving! Thank you to all the staff and we’ll definitely be visiting again if we’re in the area.

Booked for 4 at 4.00pm first impression great a full pub is always a good sign. Sunday lunch was the preferred meal, between the four of us we had Beef, Pork and Chicken. Served with Yorkshire puddings, veg and roast potatoes, and a lovely sweet sticky caramelised carrot. Plenty of gravy, but if you prefer your gravy on the side just ask. The staff were great couldn’t do enough for us. Give them a try there doing a brilliant job of reviving a great Pub.

Remind me to never ever visit this place again. Party of 12 which subsequently trebled the amount of customers the pub had, decided to go for a couple of drinks after being out celebrating out mother's birthday. After ordering and paying for our drinks which was a combination of beer, wine and pop for the kids the chap behind the bar who was three sheets to the wind decided to tell us we had 10 minutes to finish our drinks as two of our kids were too young to be in the pub. It probably would of been a prudent idea to of informed us of his rules prior to taking our order. We left as disgruntled customers never to return again as his attitude stunk.

The first thing I do when researching an establishment’s review is to look at the Authenticity of the reviewer. So I saw the last two negatives on The Swan and Talbot and both profiles were created in July 2023. Only two reviews. So I took no notice. My review is genuine. A great safe place. Clean, the staff are wonderful and couldn’t do enough for you. There’s no youngsters at all, all middle aged and older clientele like myself. The food wonderful, The singer was on, people danced and had a great time. I’ve been 3/4 times now and not once have I witnessed any trouble. The new landlords have ironed out all the problems from previous. Highly recommended. A great place to eat, stay and a fabulous commute to York City, Well done and thank you. We will be back.

No longer are the druggies, alcoholics and underage using this place. Thank goodness! The kitchen is back open serving delicious food, pub is spotlessly clean and the staff and management are lovely and welcoming. Please ignore the 1 star reviews as this is not the place they make it out to be. It’s family friendly, pet friendly, LGBTQ friendly and a nice safe place to come too. Value for money as well.

In a town with relatively few places to park, a pub with its own car park is a find! We needed lunch and a drink. The menu isn’t long, but both the steak and ale pie and the scampi were nicely presented and just right. Staff were friendly and keen to please, and the ambience was good - a friendly and down-to-earth place to meet, eat and drink. Prices are low, and excellent value. I’ll happily come back.

Overheard landlord talking to someone about the meals especially the fish and chips what good value they were. Called back another evening and decided to try the fish & chips. All main courses were £6.99 or two for £11.00. He was right about the fish & chips they were excellent, the fish was large. the batter was light & crispy, handmade chips, with garden or mushy peas. The pizzas that came from the kitchen also looked great as did the curries. All the staff were friendly & helpful, certainly go back again. Look out Wetherby Whaler !!!!

Yuk Yuk Yuk!!! The wife and I thought we we stop for a bite to eat and drinks. We were asked to take a seat and someone who come over and take our order. 15 mins later I decided to go direct to the bar to ask for the menu, I was ask again to wait in the seating area until someone arrived. Whilst waiting a group of four people leaned over and said don’t order the Sunday dinner. They said the beef smelt funny, carrots rock hard and gravy swimming in Greece. We heard them complain, but that fell on deaf ears to the staff. It was a case of ‘I’ll pass that to the chef’ as they left, the waitress took our order. We decided not to go for the roast dinner and I opted for the cheese burger and fries, the wife chicken burger with fries. Note, you have to pay first which had alarms bells ringing.The order look less than 5 mins to arrive at our table. We understood why that was after taking a bite. Both burgers were microwaved, rack hard around the edges and cold in the middle. This was wrapped around bread that was disintegrating with each mouthful. The fries were thick chips, cold and tasted like plastic. We left 3/4 of the meal, we complained and asked for a refund which they were not able to process as the manager was out. Clearly they are buying the cheapest ingredients and using basic skills for cooking the food. Do yourselves a favour, go somewhere else, save your money and don’t waste your time. Shocking from beginning to end.

Visited this place a few times over the years, sadly it never gets any better. I remember when I 1st visited a couple of years ago and ordered a pint of ale, and the staff gave me a funny look as if I was talking irish gaelic, I made a direct complaint to the manager about his staffs attitude, he never replied.Visited recently and it was exact same attitudes from the staff they employ now.The bar staff are arrogant students who seem to think they are too good to serve drinks to hardworking tradesman like myself. They need to get off their high horse and realise it is people like myself who pay my taxes so that they can go to college and university, because if they were rich enough to pay it themselves then they wouldn't be working behind a bar. Very arrogant and rude, constantly flirting with eachother in clear view of customers. Absolutely shocking attitudes.

Booked two rooms, drove nearly 100 miles and arrived to find them closed. No warning, no message, email or phone call, and we werent the only people they'd done this to either. Met the owner in the car park when retrieving our car the next day to be met with screaming, shouting and swearing. Worst customer service I've ever experienced , avoid at all costs.

We were visiting Wetherby for the day and stopped here. Family of 4, and 3 of the meals were very nice and good value for money, but after my wife had almost finished her ploughmans lunch, she noticed a large piece of mould on the bottom of the pork pie. I told a member of staff who said he'd speak to the chef (no apology was given) and took it away. After waiting almost 15 mins I went to find out what was going on. I was told that the chef, who apparently was the only person who could deal with it, was too busy to see me. After speaking to the serving staff for over 20 minutes it was clear no-one else could or would do anything, so basically their attitude was "lump it". No apology, never mind any kind of refund. A shame really as otherwise it would have been a nice meal.

Says on their website that they do "great food" but I'm wondering if that meant crisp... They certainly do not do food, which is ok, because this wasn't the nicest place.

£8.70 for a small portion of haddock and chips with a drink. The batter was completely soggy. Definitely not a proper fish and chip shop. Such a shame, as the staff seemed very nice. Hygiene around the premises seemed an issue.

Called in for a quick beer with my partner, I noticed there was a staff member from the Wakefield spoons, now one of the team managers at Morley, I spoke to her and she basically just ignored me, don't think this is professional from a management member. All other staff were friendly and polite, won't go back to that venue again.

Staff Great Main course Rissoto was just a mussy mess lacked taste and Asparagus burnt Chicken was like rubber and broccoli so badly burnt was not edible . Dessert choclate fondant and ice cream good. We were told that a trainee was in the kitchen while the head chef was somewhere else . This was a gift from a special person so very disappointed. We were offered coffee but declined
