The best restaurants in Settle and Ribblebanks Craven Yorkshire and The Humber

Just doesnt feel like a pub in the Dale's.. felt like a pub in the outskirts of a city centre

We visited Bowland Fell Caravan Park and called in here a couples of times for food and drink. First time was on Mother’s Day, hardly any people in but they only had toasties and desserts to offer. 2nd time they didn’t have gravy. Management need to up their game. Food we did have was fine and Staff were lovely.

I went to Tuesday's 'Lejunction Open Mic'. This is a review for that, and the Pub. They have a Full Back Line, on a Proper Stage. The Session is very well Hosted by Nick, with Zimmy who does the Engineering - he will also video your Slot and upload it to their WhatsApp Group for you, which is great! The Session takes place upstairs: Vibes are cool, there's a strong sense of community. It starts quiet but the Audience grows, the later it gets. You'll often find Nick and other regulars on Bass, Keys, Drums, etc. supporting whoever's playing! You can perform to Backing Tracks, too, if you bring your own Device. (They had an old 49Key Yamaha when I went in mid-March 2025; an interesting challenge for Piano players.) It's a big but divided space, Music one side, Pool n' Darts n' a Big-screen on the other. Sometimes people play Pool and listen-in... and you can see the stage from every vantage. Has its own Bar, which was unmanned when I went. It also has an outside Terrace. The Staff were great. It was quiet downstairs. It's a nice place. (Just one downside: it smelt like all Pubs smelt 'back in the day' - they may've fixed that though.) Though it seems out of the way, it's easy to get to via Bus and Overground. It's kind-of a 'Hidden Gem' of a Music Venue!

Tuve un breve descanso recientemente y estaba bastante decepcionado. El hotel ofrece habitaciones de lujo. Eso pudo haber sido así en los 80 / 90 s, pero ciertamente no ahora. Buenos puntos - las camas eran cómodas y ropa de cama agradable. Puntos malos los zócalos estaban llenos de polvo y los muebles astillados. El servicio de desayuno necesita que alguien lo resuelva. No había nadie a punto de asignar una mesa. Se sirvieron bebidas y tostadas, pero luego pasaron siglos para que se tomara nuestro pedido de desayuno cocinado y luego una larga espera antes de que realmente lo consiguiéramos. Reservamos el hotel porque sonaba y parecía agradable. La realidad era muy diferente. Sugeriría un buen be&be para mejor valor.

El café es parte de una tienda con descuento en lo que solía ser un molino. Hay un amplio aparcamiento gratuito y los precios de la comida y bebida son razonables. Los asientos son bastante básicos, pero sirven para su propósito. El café viene regular o grande. Grande es naturalmente más débil a menos que pague 70 p por una inyección extra. Entonces puedes conseguir una ganga en la tienda.

Great service and fantastic desserts... will deffo be visiting again... Battenburg Cheesecakes are AMAZING!

Visited mid week (9th Aug) to grab a takeaway, before I’d even stepped foot inside the shop a black B Class Mercedes drew up directly outside, boot opened and the driver pulled out a large clear bag (size of a bin bag) of raw chicken legs & thighs literally dripping/ leaking with blood and other raw chicken liquids (sorry). The boot liner was awash with leakage from the bag - no refrigeration in sight. The stuff of nightmares. A man appeared at the shop door (a chef?) in filthy clothes, the bag was carried across the pavement, up the steps, into the shop with a trail of chicken blood and raw liquid leaking everywhere - unbelievable. Further food and stock for the shop was retrieved from the contaminated car boot, whilst empty trays & boxes were put back into the car. Plus there were kids in the back seats! I have never seen so many hygiene contraventions so blatantly and so openly revealed in full view. Disgusting, frightening, unacceptable, dangerous. I attempted to speak to the person behind the counter to ask that they at least disinfect the shop floor and outside area but they ignored me!!! Avoid at all costs - I did, and have contacted Environmental Health. I like to support local business in Settle but not at any cost.
