Yew Tree Inn in Leeds

Great service great food, great atmosphere

Only had a pint ,plenty in the tap room ,food service was only on later so couldnt eat but would return

We only called in for a drink and found it clean, tidy and friendly.

We stayed overnight in our motorhome for a pub stopover. We had delicious food. Prices were reasonable too. The pub is very dog friendly. Julia the landlady was very welcoming. We played in the pub quiz which was great fun. I will definitely go here again.

We stayed here in the car park in our Motorhome which was great for walking distance into the town , we came back for drinks and had a lovely meal . The staff are lovely and friendly and make you feel welcome . We then returned for Sunday Carvery which was really nice and great value will definitely return .

We had a really lovely Sunday Lunch here today a choice of 4 meats, I had the gammon & turkey, & my husband had the beef, all beautifully cooked & tasty, the same for the veg. We were made to feel very welcome,& we will return, Thankyou.

Amazing chunky fishfinger sandwich comes with chips and salad! Always a warm welcome. We stay in the car park in our campervan and they are happy if you have a few drinks but the food so good and reasonably priced why would you not eat too! Highly recommend

Great spot on the outskirts of otley. Was not too busy whilst here. Certainly recommend the place .

Parked our vw van in the back - yes a bit of it IS on an incline but just park elsewhere! Came back for tea - wine £14.50 per bottle and lovely. Food is great value for money and home cooked. Portion sizes are generous. Lovely staff, wonderful little pub - don’t be put off by the no-so-good reviews.

Myself and family from further North were ther for a a sad family occassion. The place was clean, cheerfull, and welcoming. Refreshments grand. Lovelly area. Well worth a visit.

Nice place to eat good food and friendly staff and dog friendly

Lovely outdoor seating in the sun

Excellent service, excellent staff, food and drinks. Friendly atmosphere, traditional pub atmosphere and interior, couldn't ask for more!

Stayed in mororhome this weekend lovely place made to feel so welcome and was free to stay... the Sunday lunch was amazing. Will deffo be returning.

The food was really good, I must say, and they did a good job of making sure there was enough food to cover everyone. The rating is because of the execution. I'd eat here again as a smaller party. We were a large group and I called ahead to check if that would be ok and was reassured that they could cater for big groups. I called on behalf of someone in our party and was told twice that the football would be on in the tap room, it wasn't and we were told that they tried to call back but didn't have a number (despite having my booking?) Then we arrived and the table was set for about half the number of people so we had to reshuffle the adjacent tables and collect our own chairs. The staff were nice and tried to be helpful but it seemed as though something got lost in communication during the booking process and/or set up which made for a somewhat stressful arrival with 4 hungry children and a new born (also information I gave on booking).

Fab food and service. Doggy friendly with their own carvery available. Staff are friendly and helpful. Regular quiz nights, karaoke and discos. Lovely atmosphere.

Really nice atmosphere and great beer.Staff very welcoming

A very reasonably priced carvery - £9.95 and a choice of 4 meats. Can also have more than 1 meat. Dog friendly and can purchase a doggy dinner for £2 which is donated to the Yorkshire Dog Trust. Staff were very welcoming. Good size car park.

Great value carvery. A choice of 4 meats or have more than 1. Do doggy dinners for £2 with the proceeds going to the Yorkshire Dog Trust - an excellent idea. Very dog friendly. Staff were great

Our lovely neighbours have just treated us to a carvery dinner in this lovely traditional pub. I am not a fan of carvery, but am delighted to have had my opinion changed. The meat and vegetables were fresh, the beef was to die for! The staff come and get you when it's your tables turn to get your meal, which avoids all the awful queuing and shoving that you get at a chain carvery. Absolutely everything was piping hot and fresh. The staff were wonderful, very accommodating and helpful. And the sticky toffee pudding and custard was absolute perfection, the custard tasted just like my grandad's home made concoction and gave me all the warm fuzzy feelings of a family Sunday roast. The pub is dog friendly, and you can even buy a dog friendly carvery for your furry friend with all proceeds going to the Yorkshire rescue. I will absolutely be coming here again!

Popped in with our dog for a quick drink and not disappointed. Lovely staff, cozy atmosphere & affordable. Will definitely be back :)

A little disappointed with the Sunday carvery, not much taste to the beef, the vegetables were nice and the roast potatoes but the cauliflower cheese very bland, overall ok and the price good but I think better places to eat in Otley. The Sunday dinner at the Fleece much nicer

Sunday lunch. Beef. Turkey. Ham. Perfect melt in your mouth. Lots of gravy Veg a little too hard for me Lots of choices. Perfect Yorkshire puddings. Doggie friendly + doggie lunch bowls. The atmosphere was a little dull, No music and only 3 tables with people on them so very quite. Can I just say this pub needs a good cleaner, I have been a few times now and it never looks as if the carpet was hovered or the furniture washed down. Lots of scuff marks and mud on the legs. Ladies toilets 😟 sorry. That's why I only have it 4 stars But the food was excellent, great chef 👍

Very much a local pub, which is fine of course. But allowing people to vape in the pub is very unpleasant for non smokers and would certainly put me off eating there. Edit - why would a pub allowing vaping inside, warrant anything other than a 1 star review. Your response to my review is quite frankly astonishing.

Great stop over in motorhome with family from Germany. Friendly staff and great food .

Terrible isn't the word, the portions were small, the beer was off and the wine was grim. The service was dreadful. I would save yourself some time and money and go to Spoons instead.

Lovely little gem of a pub and fantastic home roast dinner. We regularly return on a Sunday for the carvery and at £9.95 I think it’s great value for money. Wholesome home cooked food and a great way to spend a couple of hours in a dog friendly pub after a Sunday walk, our pup even enjoyed his own carvery. The team at The Yew Tree and super friendly and can’t do enough for you.

It was a nice pub but it was a Saturday evening and it wasn't very busy so it lacked in atmosphere

Would lv to visit but the information on the website needs to be updated 🤔 as regards the opening hours we walk a lot and going up to the pub to find it's not open is a bit of a drag soz 🙄

I visit weekly for the Monday night games club, and it's great. Lovely venue.

Excellent, friendly service every time. The carvery is great, tasty and amazing value. Great for kids and dogs take high priority as well.

Nice pub on the way out of Otley with good food and drink at great prices. Nice range of ales and lagers. Friendly staff what more could you want?

Lovely carvery! They do large or small and they even do a doggy carvery too which goes down a treat. Cosy pub and staff are lovely.

Great food, friendly place. Carvery was delicious! Very nicely cooked, sweet parsnips. Choc fudge cake was amazing! The idea of the doggy carvery is so cute! The dogs create a warming, family atmosphere.

Absolutely fantastic carvery, best around! Such a lovely cozy and welcoming dining area to eat with the family. Everything feels relaxed, yet well organised (not a messy free for all with long queues like some carverys). The staff are so friendly, really make you feel at home. Dog friendly too, with lots of well behaved and happy looking doggies. Last but not least, the food is so well cooked and served fresh with pride, top quality range of meat, veg and Yorkshire puds! The parsnips are to die for and my daughter said the mash is the best she has ever had. All this for under a tenner a head. 100% recommended.

Not local to the area so first time visiting the Yew Tree. This is one of those places you find that you never forget. The carvery was exceptional and everything was cooked perfectly. Doggy carvery was £1.50 which is an absolute steal. It consisted of different meats (cut up) and veg of your choice. Our desserts were delicious and well presented. Looking forward to returning and trying different ones on the menu. This was topped with great service which was welcoming and warm. Very glad we decided on the Yew Tree for lunch.

Last minute decision for a Sunday carvery, as they take dogs, which appears unusual for the area. All the better known places don’t. Super friendly greeting to a warm family type pub, food was generous and the whole carvery offering was as good as it possibly could be. Wish we were more local but will definitely be back next time we’re here. Can’t think of a single improvement to suggest! Great experience.

Food ok frozen Yorkshire puddings,no heating on apart from a coal fire and there had dogs barking and there were in where you get your carvery from very Unhygienic ,won't be going back

Staff are amazing and friendly. Very reasonable prices and food was amazing.

Delicious carvery, friendly atmosphere and a great place to relax

Does a nice carvery. Allows dogs too for a doggy carvery

A small friendly pub that managed 19 of us (and 4 dogs) at the carvery. The roast potatoes deserve a special mention 🙂

Excellent Sunday carvery, gluten free available and a doggy carvery too. 👍

Great local pub. Dog friendly. A lovely relaxed atmosphere. The staff are friendly and welcoming.

I love the Yew Tree vibe. Very friendly, enjoy coming here for board games on a Monday evening. Long may the chicken and chips in a basket continue!

Went for pensioners deal in a word rubbish

Food looked great, will visit again plenty of staff on hand !

Pub stopover at the Yew Tree in Otley! Excellent food, plenty of space to park on the lower level, will need levellers if in the back car park. Water tap available, friendly staff. Walking distance to a lovely town. Great place to stop. The Yew Tree Inn

I really wanted to love this place, as its very close to my home. I felt the 1 young lad on his own was really doing his best behind the bar. How ever service was super slow we waited an hour and a half to eat. There was no menu for children either. It was freezing cold and stunk of cigarette smoke which only appeared while we were eating. and I found a white/grey dog hair in my pie that also wasn't very warm . A nice place to go for a drink but I certainly wouldn't eat here again. I was very disappointed. We even had to wait a while to pay.. such a shame.

Very friendly atmosphere. Dogs are welcome 👍

Popped in for bite to eat on evening . Reasonable prices and good burger chips and chicken gougons and chips Friendly staff . Cosy inside and plenty seating and tables outside .

The yew tree is on the outskirts of otley, food is great staff are friendly and helpful,a descent size car park, and all in great surroundings.

Great drink meal best place for all

Absolutely gorgeous carvery here on Sundays! The just-roasted meats are accompanied by a fantastic selection of vegetables, trimmings and sauces, and the staff are super-friendly and attentive. Even more excitingly for my dog, they do a Doggy Carvery here! She got her own bowl of meat trimmings and vegetables (and lots of petting). She's now got a firm favourite place for Sunday Lunch!

Good Sunday carvery nice pleasant staff value for money

Friendly staff, good choice of drinks even non-alcohol drinks, perfect place to meet for a chat and catch up with friends.

A typical small town pub. Did a good menu for a wake

Staying in Harrogate and looked for a nice country pub for Sunday lunch. Came across the Yew Tree Inn. Wow ! What a lovely pub there was one member of staff running the bar and she was brilliant. The lunch was a carvery ,choice of 3 meats or all of them which for a tiny pub was great. Everything was topped up ,the cauliflower cheese was the best I have tasted at any carvery. Top marks to the chef. A must visit but please book as it gets very busy and lots of people had to be turned away .

Stayed with our motorhome. Enjoyed a lovely carvery Sunday lunch and a quiz Sunday evening. Owners and locals were very friendly. Dog friendly too, our dog Enjoyed his doggy carvery on Sunday. A short walk takes you to the river or centre of Otley.

Lovely friendly pub. Worth the short walk out of the town centre. Nice outside area in good weather.

Amazing food and even more amazing friendly staff. Love the doggy carvery.

We met Julia today what a nice warm person looking forward to visiting her pub soon

Great place for a meal and drink

Sunday lunch is amazing. Staff lovely

Really good service and also cater for gluten free.

Absolutely amazing couldn't fault any of it. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming and helped me when I had my hands full with my puppy. The food was reasonably priced and they have a decently sized car park. Best part was the food - carvery was very tasty and they even did a "doggy carvery" for which they provide a bowl so 10/10 from me and my pup!

Wonderful Sunday Lunch spot for people AND their dogs! The just-roasted meats are accompanied by a fantastic selection of vegetables, trimmings and sauces, and the staff are super-friendly and attentive. Even more excitingly for my dog, they do a Doggy Carvery here! She got her own bowl of meat trimmings and vegetables (and lots of petting). She's now got a firm favourite place for Sunday Lunch!

Came to Otley for 1 night stayed in car park. Very welcoming and pleasant staff, enjoyed food too. Had a great night with Paul Tayler tribute. Our first stopover really good

The Doggo Carvery (pic below) caught our attention and decided to the whole clan for Sunday lunch. Staff were friendly, generous portions. Will book again soon.

What A wonderful and warm welcome my mum and I received! Smiles all around and an a friendly and attentive found us a table, and servers drinks as soon as they were able. The aroma from the carvery greeted us as warmly. Oh the food! The chef sliced the succulent meat like a master sculptor … and the meat was definitley cut from the finest stock. Beer. Gammon. Sliced so delicately. Oh. And Turkey. Cauliflower cheese, peas, beans, brocolli, roast potatoes, parsnips, mash. Gravy, horseradish, cranberry. Mint sauce … It was just such a shame that my belly could not contain more. Oh. Puddings. A great choice. Sticky toffee pudding, fudge cake, pies. I had the home made Oreo brownie with custard. I rolled out of the yew tree fully satisfied, my hunger satiated for at least another seven days. I will be dreaming happy dreams until we return. Now doubt next Sunday. Completely and utterly recommend this lively pub. Food. Drink. Ambience. Staff. Friends. Family. It felt like a second home.

Booked a table for 4 of us. Nice enough atmosphere, cozy table, friendly service and the drinks and the kids’ puddings were good. Our table was booked for 4pm and by the time we got there there was virtually nothing left. They’d run out of beef and had a couple of pieces of turkey (not enough for a full portion for one person), so we had a choice of roast ham or, well, roast ham! Most of the veg had depleted, the roast potatoes had been under heat lamps so long they were solid and the Yorkshire puddings looked as sad as I felt. Good news is my diet survived another day! Wasn’t too expensive and what we did have was nice, but wouldn’t be in a hurry to revisit based on this experience. If I did go again I’d be sure to book in for early doors!

Eleven of our family met for a belated Christmas get together. The carvery was great-good choice of meats and plenty of vegetables and gravy which were constantly topped up. Vegetarian option was good too. Excellent value and staff were all very friendly and welcoming.

Best place in Otley for Sunday lunch, vaule for money. The meal was superb couldn't vault it, flavour profile all cooked to perfection.Great staff

Lovely pub, nice and friendly staff 👍

A no frills pub with very friendly staff. We booked for lunch on a Thursday not realising Thursday’s are Pensioner days. No problem with that but it does restrict the menu. Starters were the nachos, hot and tasty, if a little salty. Mains were the...

Great food friendly staff we stayed the night in our motorhome

The food was absolutely fantastic cantbwait to go again Great service having the chef call you up to the carvery. I got beef and gammon Mouthwateringly amazing Thanks chef

As always a warm welcome from the staff and regulars at the Yew Tree. Great local. Well kept beer. Check out the local tradesmen board, or better speak to them over a pint. Managed to highlight my limitations at Pool, ah well.

Great customer service very polite and friendly

Our walking club Leeds C.H.A had our summer meal here after 3 levels of walks around Otley.we had a carvery which was good standard everything was freshly cooked,place was clean and in good decorative order.I would return in the future.

The food is second to none and the atmosphere is top grade, thank you.

Absolutely lovely pub. We stayed overnight in our motorhome and staff could not of been any more helpful and welcoming. They are still following some covid rules. The Sunday carvery was best we had in a long while. Thankyou

Lovely friendly pub. The carvery was gorgeous.would highly recommend to anyone.

Excellent sunday lunch .had the cavery.choice of three meats and a pint of fosters.cant be beaten

The Carvery was nice, but service was slow but they were very busy, and a staff member had bobbed. It can happen anywhere.

Food superb! Traditional home cooking meat cooked to perfection couldn't fault anything, staff very freidly and efficient as usual 100%..best carvery in Yorkshire #

I love this little place the staff are lovely and welcoming I popped into this pub last week the lady running around was lovely they couldn't do enough for you. I will definitely be going back when I get chance keep up the good work.

Great food at a very fair price 👌👌👌

Top notch food. People lovely. An all round good pub,

Used to be my local. We called for a quick one after a walking nearby. Not changed, lovely pub, and the carvery smelt lovely. But we had something in the slow cooker at home otherwise we would have stayed for it!

Came here with motor home as a Britstop, really nice place short walk into Otley, staff really friendly and welcoming food excellent and very reasonably priced, stayed two nights and are in the pub both nights. Great place to visit

We love the personal service and friendliness at the Yew Tree.

Great little pub, sensible covid measures in place, staff friendly and food was good and all made fresh

Went for a meal there last night with my wife for my birthday. Was thoroughly impressed. Plenty to choose from on the menu. We went with the sharing platter for a starter- great variety of items. I had the chicken and chorizo- which was delicious-...

Shame, Sat lunchtime, no food served!!

We had Sunday lunch today and it was really good. The staff were very helpful and friendly . and the food was great. Good value for money too We will certainly be going again.

Popped into this pub twice in the last couple of months with my boyfriend, while passing through Otley. The cosiest pub near the town centre in my honest opinion! We didn’t try the food but the drinks were lovely and the bar staff were very...

Lovely staff but the landlady's punctuality is somewhat desireable

We go most Sundays to The Yew Tree, we have found this place after trying others in the area and found it is very good food and good value for the price we pay. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
