Wheat Sheaf Inn Pub in Hambleton

On a walk around and stopped for some refreshment. The beer was well kept and the bar staff was polite. We observed a local having a Ploughmans Lunch and what a plate full.....we shall return in better time to this proper family friendly country pub......

In these difficult times for all people and businesses it is so refreshing to go a proper English pub. Yes, I love finding a place where people are friendly, atmosphere is fantastic and being a Yorkshireman knowing everyone will treat you like a friend. Without any doubt I would put the Wheatsheaf in the top 10 pubs in England. A lovely main bar with a roaring fire and knick-knacks all over the walls. A very welcoming husband and wife team. A cracking set of beer. A place where time has stood still. You could stay all day! Lovely village easily accessible. Now they are starting snacks. If you want to immerse yourself in what a pub should be like head to the Wheatsheaf-you will return!

Lovely pub with exceptionally welcoming landlord on a rather soggy opening day of this year's beer festival. We enjoyed our drinks before continuing on our walk. Very dog friendly (Ruby our Staffie had her picture taken and added to the picture wall) with excellent Covid precautions in place. We look forward to visiting again.

Curry night last week was amazing, can’t wait for the next one! Great flavours and a really unusual vegetarian option ( creamy corn)which was delicious.

Great hosts, a wonderful setting and delicious food. The Wheatsheaf Inn is a delightful little pub that is dog and children friendly. I will definitely be visiting again.

You're sure to receive a warm welcome from owners, staff and locals when you visit this quaint, country pub. We enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast (with yorkshire puds like mum used to make) in the cosy atmosphere, which is child and dog friendly and will certainly be returning to try the much talked about curries, one Friday evening. Thanks very much Graham and Annie.

We popped in for a drink last Friday , to see it was curry night . We decided to eat and I’m so pleased we did . The food was absolutely delicious best curry I’ve had . Can’t wait for the next curry night now .

Going with the aim of eating out what you dont have at home, here were two curries totally difference from the usual. A spicy Nepalese pork and a mild Butter chicken came with side dishes all of which were really nice and we look foward to trying some more different dishes in the future. All washed down with some Durham Brewery Magus. Lovely jubbly

Very cosy friendly staff lovely home cooked food excellent yorkshire puddings, dog and children friendly will be going again

We booked with friends for curry night last night and we had a great night. Choice of two authentic home cooked curries and accompaniments and both were delicious. Would certainly recommend trying their next curry night!

This pub is one we go to regually and always been very impressed , however it has recently changed handsand is now a total let down, I must say if the new owners don't up their game they are going to ruin a very good pub, we went for Sunday lunch and it was one of the worst I've ever had.... granted the food was all homemade however it must of been cooked the day before and put in the microwave to warm through as all we could hear from the kitchen was the pinging of the microwave and when we were served the food it was still cold and the homemade Yorkshire puddings were soggy the veg was floppy and slimy, the stuffing had been put on the plate straight from the fridge...the table next to us complained about their meal been cold also and the landlords response was well that's why the prices are low, well at £11 for 1 course I wouldn't say that was low I would say that an average price but for there it's a very expensive price for cold tasteless food....it was inedible... i definately won't be returning....

This is the worst Sunday lunch I have ever had presented to me, it had obviously been cooked the day before and reheated in the microwave, as all you could hear was ping ping ping, Yorkshire puddings like Frizbies, veg over cooked and slimey and floppy, tasteless gravy, and to top all cold when it was served, for£11 I expected something worth eating, hence would not recommend

Enjoyed group get together with set menu of choice of starters - all well received - followed by by best local beef cooked rare with ample vegs. too much for some of the ladies! Gorgeous puddings. simple but adequate wine list and of course the beers were quite exceptional. Well worth a visit, particularly of hungry.

Amazing food ! Me and partner visited for Sunday dinner and had the prawn and salmon starter followed by the chicken dinner and cheesecake. All were fabulous ! So tasty ! We would definitely recommend. This place is a must visit 😊

Couldn’t recommend The Wheatsheaf Inn enough, amazing food, great staff and very welcoming. They are many selections of great food on offer from starters through to deserts. At The Wheatsheaf they do themed nights like pie night, around the world tasting, pizza night, gin night and much more. I would highly recommended the pizza nights here! Made in the Pizza Sheds pizza oven. All freshly made to order and very tasty. The cupcakes on offer for a light dessert on pizza night are also amazing! You can keep up to date with the theme nights on there Facebook page. All prices are very cheap for the portion sizes and for such great food. Would definitely pay more for all the food here. Will be returning here as often as I can!

Really nice warm country pub. 10/10 Sunday dinners and very accommodating for gluten free. Staff are really friendly too.

What a wonderful place. A proper pub with really god real ale and great staff. The young lady behind the bar knows how to welcome and engage with strangers. She made us so welcome that we felt at home straight away. She is a credit to the place. The locals were very friendly too. Top marks.

We were really looking forward to the Beer and Sausage Festival last Saturday night so were sadly disappointed when our platefuls arrived - four barely warm sausages next to a pile of limp, soggy chips cooked in what tasted like not too fresh oil and ladled over with a peat coloured gravy. I know it's hard to cater for lots of people over the day but no-one minds waiting for freshly cooked food, and if they'd offered 3 flavours of sausage instead of eight, it would've been easy to cook for each order and well worth the £8 per head (or even £10!)

Excellent village pub, great menu options, super tasty, nicely priced and brilliant service ... what more could you ask for Definitely call in again

Had Sunday dinner, roast beef, Yorkshire puddings & veg. All cooked to perfection. Arrived quickly, they were booked up, always a good sign of a nice place. I would definitely go back, can't recommend it enough. Unlike most pubs it has not turned into a licensed restaurant, still olde worlde with a proper bar.

This pub has absolutely quality craic with great scran and good drinks. The people at the pub are very friendly, the pub may be small but has an amazing atmosphere especially when there is a pizza night.

We must say the staff are very nice here. We had the steak and also the steak and ale pie. Very nice we would call again if we were passing. Prices not too bad either.

Tuvimos una comida maravillosa en la noche del viernes con dos amigos, fajitas, 2 x pastel de carne con cerveza y los filetes de lubina, todo estaba delicioso, el vino enfriándose sizzling fajitas. Excelente servicio en un ambiente real con excelente artesanía país pub de cerveza, lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Acabo de volver de vacaciones, así que nos metimos en descubrir que la pizza era un cobertizo de noche. Corteza delgada, pizzas artesanales fabuloso, con ingredientes de origen local, cocinada a la perfección! Yo la pizza magic mushroom, mi esposa el Mediterráneo, una fantástica mezcla de aceitunas, pimientos, queso parmesano y hierbas. . . mmmmm.

Sólo tenía un paseo de Knayton y llamado en el pub para tomar una copa rápida. Por desgracia, Cooper Dragon era, así que se tradujo en una pinta. Entonces, lo impensable sucedió, disparó. Pero el nuevo ale fue incluida en el wicket medio. Fue llamado por la ventanilla y como yo nunca había oído hablar de ella, pensé que era mi obligación de probar uno. Una muy buena ale, pero pálido dudando un poco, tuve un segundo. Yo hubiera tenido una tercera, pero me había quedado sin dinero. Esta fue una excelente cerveza y uno para recordar. Como siempre, el pub estaba fantástico, lleno de gente así que pude coger todas las noticias. Volveré a ser. . . .

Este es el tipo de comunidad que el pub de grandes cadenas han destruido sistemáticamente a lo largo de los años, pero este está orgulloso y espero que continuará prosperando y alentar a otros pueblos de todo el país a seguir suite.

A unique friendly village pub. Unpretentious warm, welcoming, full of character. Sunday lunch is amazing, love it.

. Nos llevaron a nuestra mesa en el restaurante pequeño compacto. La pierna de cordero en salsa con patatas fritas y rosemary vedgetables para mí, y el pastel de carne con cerveza para mi esposa estaba cocinado a la perfección. Budín de toffee y seguido bySticky pera y fresa de ruibarbo. En general una excelente comida.

En un pub rural pintoresco pueblo. bastante Una cálida bienvenida. Excelente selección de comida. Un plato de £9. 95, dos platos de £12. 95 y si tienes un curso para 14 libras. 95. Pollo, ternera, cordero y cerdo. Buena comida casera con una sonrisa amable. Más acogedor pub nunca. Bien vale la pena una parada como está justo al lado de la A19.

Comida fantástica. . . . . . gran ambiente. . . . . volveremos. . . Gran variedad de hortalizas y toda la comida cocinada a la perfección. . . . . . Muy recomendado.

We have had many Sunday Dinners all around including the yorkshire dales . This is our fourth visit to this wonderful pub, I just felt I must write a review. Very very friendly, clean, staff are energetic, friendly , polite and very attentive . Today my partner had roast beef and I had roast chicken . The food was cooked to perfection which included, Yorkshire puddings , carrots , cabbage , cauliflower cheese, sweet potatoes mashed with tarragon , roast potatoes, the beef and chicken just melted in your mouth . This lovely little pub deserves much more credit . The food is amazing, piping hot and full of taste . We will highly recommend this to our guests at Laburnum House, absoluyr quality and the Daleside Beer is a refreshing pint to wash down the excellent Sunday Dinner We are booked in for next Sunday , carnt wait Perfect

Just had the best steak in a long time - cooked perfectly with a delicious Stilton sauce and delicious home made chips -can fully recommend a visit and plenty of variety on the menu all freshly cooked to order & mostly locally sourced produce. Lovely local pub with a great team running it :-)

Lovely place, with good food for a good price. Everything looks clean including the toilets . I do not like places that the toilets are not clean.

Had a lovely meal , yet again . All four of us had a loveley meal , service a little slow but can't fault the food . Good , proper pub .

Unpretentious place,welcoming staff and quite friendly patrons. The food was excellent and maybe even too large a plateful, I couldn't manage a dessert. Red Wines, a decent basic selection, were served in a proper large spotless glass and at room temperature, seems obvious but so many places get that wrong. Loved it

This is a regular place for us to eat , it has the best chef landlady and landlord, the very best courteous staff, we must have been 100 times and it's always the best and there is never a problem.They bend over backward to do it right and nothing is too much trouble.It says when did you visit too numerous to mention.

We visited this gem on our way back to Sheffield having been to the great north run. Found it on trip advisor and managed to get a table for 4What a lovely place in beautiful surroundings, from walking in to leaving it was fab, the staff/service was excellent, considering we was not locals, but made to feel so welcome. We all had the Sunday roast, which was presented perfect and tasted incredible, my wife is a bit of a Sunday lunch addict, and it was up there with the best of them, once again thank you so much for your hospitality, we will Definately make a journey from Sheffield again.

This is a traditional English pub, with great beer, great food and great value for money. The food is exceptional, try the homemade individual pies, or the Sunday lunch, all served with great attention to detail, freshly cooked veg and even an extra sauce Boat!Their specials nights, especially the Pizza shed night are to die for. These guys can show some of our fancier local hostelries what real "inn keeping" is all about. Friendly folk, really great beer, great food and good value, what's not to like!

Ian & Jackie offer the best, warmest greetings & hospitality in the county. An intimate, charming interior, fantastic range of food & eventful evenings continually on offer, it's the best pub for a pint of Dales Lager, a spontaneous chat, or a laugh with friends. I'm booking in for Mediaeval night! The Sunday lunches are spot- on but book early to avoid disappointment!

What an excellent meal we have just had at the Wheatsheaf. Beautifully presented Food, lovely staff and certainly not over priced. A return is guaranteed. Thankyou Neil and Jackie is was FAB !!!

I have visited the Wheatsheaf a number of times and eaten from the evening menu (Fri & Sat evening) and Sunday lunch. It is always excellent. Whilst all the food is first class the steak pies are just superb. Jackie and Neil make the perfect hosts in this delightful, friendly village pub.

Travelling from Swansea to Newcastle we thought it a good idea to stop on the way home. We did book but could not be sure of our arrival time and made a provisional booking. We arrived early and this was not a problem at all for staff who made us very welcome while a table was prepared. We all had Sunday lunch which was delicious and vegetables well cooked. The ginger pudding was lovely as was the chocolate brownie. I will definitely return.

Phoned on spec as they don't always seem to do food, but managed to get a table for 2 with relatively short notice. There was a roaring log fire in the main bar and it was quite busy for so early on a Friday with the usual smattering of regulars. The Daleside beer is one of my favourites and is very well kept. They also do some lovely wines by the glass and a glass of Malbec suited the wife. We were offered a menu within minutes of sitting down by the very friendly local waitress and it contained some fairly predictable pub fodder but one or two specials also. We were shown to our table in the small but comfortable dining room next to the main bar. My breaded King Prawns and side salad were freshly cooked and crisp, the wife went for the smoked salmon and prawn platter which provided an ample portion. My main was the Thai Chicken Curry with half chips and half rice as well as a nan bread - all faultless. We shared a pear and strawberry crumble with cream - far too indulgent! A lovely evening we will look to repeat.

This little country pub is special, special old building and atmosphere, special down to earth home cooked food, a wonderful welcome, and you leave feeling like you've had great value for money. It's the kind of place where all types of people come together in an intimate friendly welcoming space. The team running the pub are really nice without that over the top American falseness. You get great portions, a good selection of English pub classics and a couple of more contemporary options. I would recommend booking as whilst they will do everything they can to fit you in, it can get very busy. In summary go and try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed!

The only gripe I have with this place is the shared bathroom. But we chose to do but, and next time we will certainly be booking the en suite ! The room was very nice, the meal was lovely and there was a few good ales available to choose from, everything at a reasonable price.We will certainly be using this Inn again during our travels and recommend everyone else do to !

We have just returned from an evening meal at the Wheatsheaf Inn at Borrowby.We had booked (if we hadn't I'm not sure we could have been accommodated) earlier today. We had a lovely meal and will certainly return. Well presented, reasonably priced, good quality food. I was particularly impressed with the steak and ale pie, made with shortcrust pastry and beautifully presented with new potatoes, 3 veg and a gravy boat of gravy! No need for food tomorrow for me!

An honest and friendly village pub, with great food, good drink selection, and a very warm welcome. We have enjoyed numerous visits to this lovely old pub, and are pleased to see how independent it has remained, how characterful, and how lovely the staff always are.

What an absolutely lovey meal we have just had. Food delicious and plentiful. Lovely staff, waitress so helpful and friendly. Made our Wedding Anniversary special.

The wheat sheaf did not let us down, every time we visit we have a wonderful meal in this family friendly local pub.

Delicious food, friendly welcome, excellent value for money. Will visit for an evening meal next time

This is a genuine local pub, and on the night we visited it was full of local people who were friendly and inclusive. Made up of several smaller areas (one on each side of the bar and a dining room), the pub is definitely not modern in its decor, offering instead an interesting mix of shabby and character. The early bird menu (available from 5.30 until 7.30pm) really is excellent value, and the food is delicious too. We went for the three course option. The soup was particularly delicious (broccoli and Stilton). The mains were fresh, tasty and generous in size. The fish pie was full of fish, and came with four large side dishes - new potatoes, beans, cauliflower and carrots. The fish and chips came with homemade fresh chips. And the quality and flavour continued with the desserts - it was difficult to choose from the considerable number of options, but we were all very pleased with our selections, as we were with our choice of this village pub for our one dinner in the area in this visit.

Enjoyed a lovely meal over the weekend. Staff more than helpful. Great atmosphere and value for money. Great selection of wines and beers which is always good! Would definitely recommend! Can't wait to return

Having been recommended this pub we gave it a try early Friday evening.The pub is only small so got busy with early drinkers.We were shown to a table and ordered our food.Everything was typical average pub food .not bad for the price.the problem we had was the foul language coming from the bar area.No one seemed to tell the gentlemen in question to stop.this went on all the way through our meal ,and totally spoilt the evening.

Just returned from holiday on Friday and wanted to go somewhere local for an early tea. We had been once before quite recently. This is a lovely welcoming and cosy pub, we were taken through to the restaurant and the food did not disappoint. I had the Salmon in chilli and garlic sauce which was lovely and my partner had Steak Pie, plenty of home made chips and vegetables. Puddings were great, I especially liked the extra Toffee Sauce with the Sticky Toffee Pudding. Reasonable price and good food. The waitress Katie was very helpful and friendly too.

We went here again last night the 4/5 time we have eaten here.the food drinks and atmosphere is great. We have had Sunday lunch,Indian and Mexican themed nights.all have been very enjoyable.last night we arrived late and had not booked but still no trouble. 2 other couples arrived after us and they were also made welcome and given a table much to there delight. I had steak and it was cooked exactly how I asked.the wife had fish pie off the early bird menu £7 for 1 course I think,she said it was lovely and my little girl had fish fingers and chips has normal. They always make a fuss of my little girl which is always nice. There is a open fire great in winter and good selection of real ale's. I can't say anything bad about this place and thought it worth writing this review my first time ever please excuse my grammar lol.So if your passing it is well worth considering !!

We stopped by the wheat sheaf inn on our way from york to Newcastle. It was the best decision we made on our entire trip! The staff was so friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious. I hope to come back her some day. Definitely recommend it!

We come here fairly regularly for family dinners and it serves delicious, pub food in either the cosy bar area with large open fire, or in the small dining room with cute tablecloths. Sunday dinners offer plenty of veg, usually with something a bit out of the norm like a root veg mash, that makes it stand out from what can sometimes be quite boring in other pubs.

Had to write a review as we were so impressed. On Friday my husband and I decided to go with friends for a meal to start off the bank holiday weekend. Going off the reviews for Sunday lunch we would try the Wheat Sheaf. They do an early bird menu from 5.30 on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We all had a starter and main course it was £10 for 2 courses but you can have 1, 2 or 3 courses and to be honest I wondered what we would get when it was such a reasonable price. It was really good. Excellent meals, plenty on the plate, friendly staff and lovely little pub.Would highly recommend the Wheat Sheaf Inn at Borrowby and their early bird menu. Will definitely be going again when I don't feel like doing tea.

We stopped off here in this cosy village pub after a long drive back from holiday I Scotland - we picked it solely based on trip advisor reviews and were not disappointed! The staff were friendly polite and very welcoming. Food was excellent and it helped extend our holiday vibe even though we were sad to be heading home. Highly recommended!

When living in this small village, you couldn't ask for more welcoming people then the owners of the wheat sheaf inn. Great food, great beer and even better people! Recommend the "Mini Guinness" drink that the owner specialises in!

Visited here on sunday as a large group and this included babies and toddlers. When we made the booking the lady who answered the phone was extremely welcoming and said it would be fine to bring in pushchairs etc.We all opted for Sunday dinner and a starter each and the children ordered from the kids menu. The garlic mushrooms were gorgeous as was the soup and the prawns. Good size portions too. The sunday lunch was absolutely beautiful, lots of vegetables and piles of delicious meat on the plate. The staff were fantastic , we were not an easy group to look after due to the amount of adults and children and babies with us, despite this the lady who was looking after us was great, polite, patient and just overall made out visit even more great.Will Definitely be returning! Thank you.

Very friendly olde worlde pub in a lovely village. We had a lovely Sunday lunch here,everything home cooked and delicious. The best meal we have had in a long time. Highly recommended.

Recommended this place by a sister-in-law with whom we were staying. Wonderful country pub experience but the food exceeded our expectations. Good selection of regular menu items and "specials" all at a very reasonable price. The food served was fresh, flavourful and very tasty. We absolutely loved this hidden gem of a pub and would highly recommend. Can't wait to try again when we're next in the area.

We visited the Wheat Sheaf Inn by chance when we were looking for somewhere for Sunday lunch travelling home from a weekend away. My husband picked you out from the Good Beer Guide, real ale being his usual priority and diverted off the A19. The diversion is very worthwhile, it is a lovely village pub which was quite busy when we arrived having been decended upon by cyclists, but the landlady was very helpful when we asked if we could get lunch for two. After checking with the kitchen showed us to a very smart dining room. It was traditional Sunday lunch with a choice of meat and we chose the chicken and beef. It was a while arriving but were warned of this before taking the table,which was fine and worth waiting for. The meat, yorkshire and roast potatoes arrived with gravy, all piping hot, fresh sliced chicken and two huge slices of beef. Vegetable arrived in serving dishes, first came french beans and carrots which I thought was fine, but this was foĺlowed by mashed swede and cauliflower cheese, and a separate gravy boat. Absolutely delicious, the whole meal could not be faulted, unfortunately we didn't have room for dessert but left very contented and will return if ever in the area again.

Lovely traditional pub with great food. Clearly family run with much love. We called for Sunday lunch and it's the best we've had in years.A very good choice of ales with Daleside being a regular and 2 more guesting.A real gem. You will not regret visiting.

We have been to the wheatsheaf several times and have always had a warm welcome, it has a lovely open fire, local real ales and the sunday lunch is very good and value for money.They also have specialiality evenings. Tuesday lunch is the coffee lounge with light lunchesand wonderful cakes. Look forward to our visit at christmas.

Lovely country pub, with always a warm welcome. Food is excellent quality and great value. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Tuesday coffee mornings, Sunday lunches and evening meals, and also great to catch up with friends at the quizzes which come with a tasty supper. I highly recommend a visit.

Great family run pub, good food have eaten at the Mexican night, fish and chips and steak night which were all top notch! Lovely friendly staff. Great little country pub and great atmosphere.

We now regularly eat at the Wheatsheaf Pub, and their Sunday lunch in their tastefully decorated dining room is just beautiful. Jackie and Neil are such a welcoming couple who put their all into the pub. They serve good hand pulled ales as well as or the normal drinks range. Borrowby is such a pretty village and Neil and Jackie and their families are fully involved in the village life. Keep the good work up guys!

We had no idea this place existed until we were in the area and did an Internet search. What a great search it was. Lovely homely atmosphere, great home cooked food and well worth the very reasonable price. Can't wait to be back in the area to go back again.

This is a lovely small village pub with a real welcome. It serves hand pulled beers and does great food. The food nights are usually on a Wednesday and Friday and are 'themed' - eg fish & chips or steak, mexican etc and well worth going out of your way for.

We heard about the great reputation The Wheatsheaf has for food a few weeks in advance of our visit and booked as soon as we could.The night we attended was a Mexican night and was well worth the trip and money - for a very reasonable price we were treated to a great spread of homemade and delicious Mexican food. Not quite what you normally expect from a real ale pub in a sleepy Yorkshire village!The menu was:Nachos with homemade salsa/pico de gallo and guacamole Sweet Chilli Pulled Pork Soft TacosChicken and Sweetcorn BBQ Crispy TacosSpicy Chicken FajitaChilli Beef EnchildaSizzling Steak with Peppers.All in all a great range of tasty food served in a lovely location for a very reasonable price!

Whilst visiting the area we came to the Wheatsheaf in for lunch,on both occasions the experience was wonderful in every way. The menu was simple, I liked the idea that every main dish was the same price, but there was plenty of choice. On the second visit we had a desert as well and these were super, especially the choice of a trio for the same price. The good was great, fantastic value for money in an amazing setting. The staff on both occasions were great, very pleasant and welcoming. I can't praise this place highly enough, we will be back!

They were warned I was gluten free and they catered superb;y for Mothers day meal.....LOvely starter of chicken livers in cream and brandy served on a gluten free brushetta....delicious. Followed by Roast beef with specially prepared gravey and a gluten free Yorkshire pud....creme brulee to finish which wasnt on the menu but the waitress could advice what was gluten free and also what else they could serve.
