Three Horse Shoes in Selby

New landlord and a much better menu!

100% recommend, food and service second to none. We will be back.

Highly recommended superb meal thankyou

Really lovely afternoon at The Three Horseshoes. Great food & lovely atmosphere x thankyou

Eat Sunday Roast here September 2024. Excellent! Service 10/10, food 10/10, Beer 10/10. It’s a very fine pub with Timmy Taylor’s on pump, lovely setting near the RSPB reserve. The Sunday roast beef meal we had was quite incredible.

Had lunch there on Saturday, very nice food my wife had goats cheese parcel which was amazing. The pie was okay, needed something but all in all a good meal. New ownership offering food has made a difference to the atmosphere, no longer an old local and more welcoming now.

We have not been for a long time as the three horse shoes went down hill. We gave it a try because it is under new management/ownership. What a difference. The new couple have only been in a couple of months. Now cleaner ,Very friendly and the food 10/10 and not expensive Some of our party had the beef pie ,another the cheese burger and another fishcake and chips .Everything was so tasty. It is wonderful to have a local worth going too

Visited on 8 august for food, we were made very welcome by the by the new landlords and the food was homemade and piping hot, really enjoyed it

New manager great to talk to very vibrant 100% positive output What all good pubs need I think he might be a cod head

New owners recently taken over the pub. If they continue with the excellent food and service as shown to us this evening then the pub will be a very welcome asset to the community. Very reasonable prices and all food home made which was served piping hot with lashings of gravy. As a table of 9 we were made very welcome and we will be returning. Good luck for the future.

Bad smell in the pub as we arrived, dirty glasses and 3 piles of dog mess in the beer garden, flies everywhere due to bins full and right near the tables outside.

Beautiful place in a beautiful village near fairburn ings nature reserve food delicious service excellent

Had a fantastic time at the Three Horse Shoes who hosted a Christening for our long time friends from Castleford. The pub was very cosy, everyone was so friendly and Landlord and his team could not do enough to ensure we all had a great time. By the way the men’s toilets were immaculate and smelt so nice, something that is overlooked in many pubs/clubs 👍 We would definitely recommend this establishment for any family events. Thanks again, Mark & Jan,

Loved the beer, the Silver Sword was my favourite. Friendly staff and good atmosphere, looking forward to our next visit, thank you

It was closed. Doesn't open till 1500, despise being advertised as 1200.

Nice beef baguette, propper chips!

It was quiet in the pub the day we stopped there on the way to Northumberland. The pint of beer I had was in good condition.

Just a wee snecklifter as I was passing. Well worth a return visit.

Quite little pub in a picturesque village with good food. Perfect stop of if you're planning a walk around the ings.

Avoid this pub at all costs paid £10 for a pizza that was tiny and found it in Aldi the next day 😂😂 My brother also ordered a butter chicken curry which tasted like the Aldi one he gets every week for lunch 🤣 My mother had a “homemade lasagna” which was also Aldi Worst meal I’ve ever had in my life, it was that bad we laughed about it. Boycott this pub they ripped us off

Really nice dog friendly pub. Staff are very welcoming and accommodating. Would defo return again. Nice little beer garden.

It sad to see this lovely little pub not busy. The landlady was welcoming. It just needs people to go in & use the place. It opens at 12 noon every day. Opening times information on the Internet is incorrect.

This review is no reflection on the staff at all, they were really nice and welcoming. The last time I went to Three Horse Shoes, you would be very lucky to get a table it was so busy, the food was so good. When we walked in (lunchtime on a Sunday) we had reserved a table based on what it used to be like. We didn’t need to worry about that. Only a couple of tables were in use, someone was playing darts which screams out that this pub is no longer good for food. I ordered a Sunday lunch, i had to drain some water off the plate from the vegetables they were so soggy and nothing could have rescued the taste, they were beyond help. The roast potatoes were burnt potatoes, I do like mine crispy but two were black, the only thing good on the plate was the mini Yorkshire pudding and the garden peas. I didn’t raise my issues at the time because I didn’t want to appear rude. It needs to be back to basics proper home cooked food with an emphasis on local produce. This pub used to be a goldmine and it could be again, definitely needs a lot of work.

Ate here for the first time in many years with some friends last week. The pub was nice inside at lunch time, although empty - we were literally the only customers. We had lunch. The food was cheap - most main courses just under a tenner - but fairly poor quality. Comments on the Fish and Chips had by most - "like a big fish finger", "probably came from Aldi" "prison food" - not that she'd know. Vegetable Wellington was "all right". My Steak and Ale Pie was a bit better but generally agreed that we'd much have preferred to have paid more for decent food. Beer was ok though.

On a recent visit found beer OK BUT food was Aweful!!!! really NOT worth a visit.. I see there are good reviews on here Obviously before the pub changed hands.. The food was well overcooked and borderline inedible.. £9.99 for overcooked fish. The so called batter was like concrete and chips were burnt almost black. However the location of the pub was nice with views across the lake.. Service was reasonable but not professional. But the food needs serious attention and possibly a professional chef to bring the food up to a reasonable edible professional standard at which the public will find it acceptable..

We stopped at the three horse shoes after a walk. Light bite, dessert and drink for us both and some lovely treats for the dog. Lovely friendly pub, great value and great tasting food!

Best description is very poor and not clean tables,this pub has recently changed hands ,so check out before booking as it is not the same as it used to be.

Called to the three horse shoes for lunch on our dog walk, I have been here many times before over the years, however have not been since before covid. Today myself and friends called with the dogs the ladies behind the bar were nice, I ordered a chip butty I really fancied some homemade chips to warm me up. I was extremely disappointed when crinkle oven chips came out on a platter with a tiny bread bun. I noticed someone else’s order also as it went passed our table it was a frozen pie. The pub seemed very tired and a little grotty. I love calling on a dog walk for lunch but I will not be returning I wish I’d of gone home and made a chip butty. Could be a good pub with a better menu and homemade food and a little face lift

Frozen, cheap food ! cooked poorly with little to no service. Appreciate this pub has changed hands recently, and service would be forgive alittle for good quality home cooked food !!! BUT it it’s not !!! Frozen chips. Cheap pies, that football clubs would be ashamed to serve. Our family has lived around the area and visited this pub for many a year. We enjoyed home cooked, good honest food !!! And this certainly wasn’t !!!!!!

Only had a quick drink here, good prices and back yard seating

Stopped here on our way up to North of the dale's for lunch. Very friendly, lunch was lovely and our dogs were welcome too. We were also told that a mile down the road was a nature reserve where dogs were also welcome. Would definitely recommend.

Nice village local with friendly staff, real ales and food.

Great drinks and bar service. Good limited to pizza’s and sandwiches until they get a chef on board. Great atmosphere though well worth a visit.

Food was good Changing hands soon Let's hope they don't change it too much

I used to like this pub. We just visited for the first time since it reopened for a drink. We were horrified to be charged £3 for a cup of tea. We've never paid so much for a tea. I'm afraid with prices like that we would not go there again.

Popped in here for lunch after walk with daughters and dogs. Nice dog friendly pub, staff polite and great food. Would return when in area and recommend.

Lovely little pub. Sat outside on a sunny day, with a sandwich and hand cut chips. Very nice meal, and pleasant new managers. Will definitely return. Such a lovely spot, and great as a stop off from a walk round the Ings.

A most excellent stop off for Wonderful food and specialist roasted coffee. The welcome is very warm and the service is first class. The menu is changed from time to time and additions made which can be requested to be left off. A firm ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 Borderline Eleven 😎

Amazing food.... fabulous staff

Call here for lunch after a walk at the Ings, food was lovely and very reasonably priced. The lady who served my friend and I was a great host, just what a country pub needs.

My previous review of this place was a solid 5 stars, one of the best restaurants in the area unfortunately with the new ownership the place has gone downhill. The Sunday dinners were always my favorite but my recent visit left me vastly disappointed. The food was of poor quality and portions were small, I had a Sunday dinner and a desert and was still hungry. The food just isn't as good but the prices are still very expensive. Very disappointed as I was a regular customer here and I won't be returning unless it comes under new ownership again. To note, I also went with 3 other people who also thought the same.

Checked local pubs before setting out to visit the local nature reserves. If we had looked on TripAdvisor we may not have visited. However, we were made very welcome and the interior of the pub was tastefully decorated. Only one hand-pulled real ale, understandable in the current circumstances. I ordered hunters chicken which was full of flavour, with chips (lovely) and salad. The only problem was that the bacon was partly burnt. My partner had halloumi salad, which she enjoyed. Of 4 desserts (other than ice-cream), the crumble, which we were both looking forward to, was unavailable. However, the chocolate fudge cake, with ice-cream, was superb. Overall, an enjoyable pub lunch, for a reasonable price.

Just had a really great Christmas meal the the 3 Horse Shoes. Great service and food - what more could you ask for. We will be back.

Friendly welcoming pub with really good food

We went for Sunday lunch today. I don' even know where to start. The mashed potato (smash) was stone cold, and I meant stone cold! The roast potato's were crispy on the outside and hard in the middle, basically not cooked. The gravy was just instant out of a jar as in just add hot water and stir!. The broccoli was anaemic and tasteless, I could go on....... The girl came and asked if everything was Ok and we said not really as the mash was clap cold. When the young lad came to clear everything away and asked if everything was ok we said no it was far from ok in fact it couldn't get much worse. We didn't get any response or apology all we got was the bill. And yes this did cost £14 per person! Don't waist your money cause you will be disappointed

This pub was normally the ‘go to’ for a fabulous Sunday lunch. You would certainly struggle to get a table without a booking. But as we walked in we noticed how much quieter it was than usual. Very few tables were set up for Sunday lunch, which was unusual & did not bode well. Then as we ordered we were informed that there wasn’t much meat/food left, but we would be charged less for the meal. What? After taking my reservation two days earlier & going to the effort of reserving a table? As for the food when it arrived we weren’t as fortunate as the previous reviewer in getting roast potatoes. The meal was a nostalgic reminder of school dinners. I didn’t know you could still get reconstituted mash potatoes! The staff however were very friendly, polite & apologetic. You had the distinct impression that they had been thrown under the bus by their employers & that they were fully aware just how unacceptable it was.

12 months ago this place was 5 star for Sunday lunch. Not anymore! Lovely staff trying really hard but can’t tell the difference between pork and turkey. It was once the best Sunday dinner within 20 miles but now it’s frozen Yorkshire’s, wet veg, fatty meat and please don’t get me started with what I think they called roast potatoes.

A very pleasant Sunday lunch. Extremely affable staff and proprietor. Good value food. Look forward to new menu.

A friendly village pub. Pleasantly surprised by £3 for a pint of Wainwright’s Golden Beer when many other pubs charge nearly £5. Good food although not a great choice on Sundays but if you like a traditional Sunday dinner this is the place to go.

Wow, popped in for family dinner - what a fantastic find! Great food, great value, really friendly.

Probably the best pie I've ever eaten - chicken and bacon - though cask ale not quite up to the same standard. Waitress very patient with a group of grumpy old men behaving like school kids.

I had the best burger I've ever had at The Three Horseshoes last night. I had the Gringo which had chili, cheese, guacamole and jalapenos on it, really tasty. My husband had a fantastic steak as well. The burgers are 2-4-1 every other Thursday, will...

Over priced. Reheated roasters. Had much tastier and fresher☹ for half the price.

Fabulous ratatouille! Definitely be back for seconds, although I did go berserk with the sides and went away absolutely stuffed. Impeccable service too. Great job, Horseshoes, see you soon 🤩

Lovely staff, a nice pint, in a nice village. A Friday afternoon in the sun 👍

Just had a lovely meal with my partner - belly pork and a goats cheese tartlet to start.. fantastic food, great service and the cask ale (Copper Dragon) was delicious. A credit to the village

Got here just as they were opening for the day. Came with my dog (the whole pub is dog friendly) and spoke to the owner who was a very welcoming man. Had a bite to eat and sat outside, great experience.

Delightful visit this afternoon, ordered a couple of cheese burgers & fries only 1 drink with our meal as we were passing through. The beer garden was full, however ample seating in doors service faster than we expected due to the new regulations with CV19....

Friendly atmosphere, helpful staff and chilled surroundings

Just been for a taster evening for the new menu on offer from Wednesday 19th May 2021. The food was very tasty, well presented and served with a smile! Can't wait to go back and try different dishes. The Landlord and his team have certainly worked hard. As usual excellent handpulled beers. Would highly recommend a visit.

Lovely place to visit after a dog walk. Very friendly atmosphere and great food.

Great place, great food and staff were amazing

Visited here at the weekend with my partner, the food was amazing and the staff were really friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back! Thank you.

I actually thought about whether or not to leave a review as negative ones can be damaging to a small business especially in the times we are, however I am going to leave one because hopefully the owner will read and learn some social skills....

Very nice and very helpful staff

Attitude is everything in hospitality. Unfortunately bald guy behind the bar who's presumably the owner fell short of the expectations and was quite rude.

In hospitality attitude is everything . When I walked in the man behind the bar made it clear he's not bothered about me or any customers at all and barked at me 'You need a proper mean and not a nibble to get w pint'....

The food here is absolutely delicious and the halloumi fries are the best we’ve tasted. Extremely attentive and friendly service. Loved it!

Went to Food Taster Night last night. Absolutely fabulous! Really well organised so you felt safe in these difficult times. Staff and Landlord particularly attentive to our needs. The 7 dishes from starter, main meal and sweet were ideal proportion size for the Taster session....

Nice pub, owners were super friendly and prices were reasonable. Menu was a bit limited but the food we ordered was really tasty. Parking is a bit of a nightmare as well.

Unfortunately not as good as previously. Very pleasant staff and good service but no mash, one dessert to chose from and not very good roast potatoes. Not sure what happened. Was looking forward to it so much. It is our wedding anniversary tomorrow and this was our celebratory dinner.

Have good covid protection measures in place. Beer was okay and food was alright. Went for the lunchtime menu. I do recommend the halloumi kebabs!

Lovely pub with friendly staff, good home-cooked food, simple fayre but good sized portions and lots of veg and also dog friendly. Eaten here a few times in August & September while without a kitchen. Would recommend.

We've visited the 3 horse shoes several times and walked our dog over, dined a couple of times foodnis delicious! One Saturday after we called with friends after raving about the pub, I messaged before hand to check they was serving food all day, to...

absolutely beautiful meal and stunning covid 19 precautions thankyou very much for a lovely evening

Good service and delicious food. Worth a visit to refresh yourself after a walk down Fairburn Ings

Visited for lunch today with our son who has additional needs. Excellent experience. The food was lovely and the staff were very helpful and understanding of our son's needs. The covid safety measures were all in place and we were made to feel very welcome. Will definitely return

Visited for lunch today with our son who has additional needs. What a lovely pub. Great food, warm friendly service.Kindness and understanding towards our son and attention to his needs. Very covid safe. Will definately return.

Good value for money, delicious food, brilliant service

Had a lovely Hot Beef sandwich and the Government discount made it even more a bargain! We Parked at RSPB Fairburn ings and walked through the woods to get to fairburn and the pub , A nice 1 hour walk and another hour back .Great way to work of lunch .

The food was brilliant. Great price for home made food. The staff were lovely and the whole place was friendly.

Beautiful quality food and lovely staff

Called for lunch, good cleanliness and covid measures in place. Service from staff was pleasant and tasty sandwiches and chips, good quality produce. Was a little disappointed with my beer however, clearly had a taste of line cleaner and despite changing for me for a...

Great food friendly staff and lovely beer garden

Loved this pub. I found this on a walk and it’s great...staff friendly, distancing as good as you’d hope far, beer good, food good...and don’t forget to order a side of the best chips I’ve ever tasted :)

Always a brilliant service and food is always spot on. Very welcome addition to the village. 👌👍

Only found out how great this place was a couple of weeks before the Covid-19 lockdown came into force, however the owner has worked tirelessly to keep the place going throughout. The food we’ve ordered has been amazing and the mini kegs of beer are a great idea. Highly recommended.

Excellent staff ,friendly and good food

Used to be the talk of the area but new owners have got it so wrong. Shame.

Nice friendly staff clean 🥩 steak was nice chips 🍟 beautiful only complaint never had a steak without mushrooms

Had Christmas dinner had a lovely meal staff very good and friendly service too , I missed my Yorkshire pudding but no complaints

The food was really good and the decor was very inviting .

Nice food, good price and big portions
