The best restaurants serving British food in Northowram and Shelf Calderdale Yorkshire and The Humber

Tapas style food drip fed to table. Took 30 mins for our drinks order to arrive and a further 30 mins for some bread and pesto. Onion bhajis were a little large for my taste and smelled burned but were good. Halloumi was nice. Marsala cod couldn't taste marsala but was tasty none the less. Truffle chips came after this main course which was an odd timing. Wife had some sort of meat which she enjoyed. Larger not sold in pints but 3/4 pints. Drinks expensive by comparison. If possible get seated upstairs as downstairs lacks atmosphere. Service was slow to start as mentioned above. Was nice to spend some quality time kid free so overall enjoyed the night Neal cost £90 which was probably £20 too much to be honest.

Went today after seeing post on Facebook, we didn't book and the staff set a table up for us, got 2 course Sunday roast and daughter got the Yorkie wrap. Plenty of food, great price, brilliant staff.

Restaurant review only.. We booked for a birthday meal, the service initially was quite good, the serving staff where helpful and timely... The food on the other hand was not very good at all. Firstly I was served a coffee with a biscuit which had a hair sticking out of it. We made the server aware and it was it was rectified with a fresh cookie. We then ordered their Roast carvery option, this wasn't very nice, the vegetables where dried and had been left too long and the roast meat was far too tough to cut never mind chew. The portions of chips where obviously re heated as the where very dark and burnt. We did mention it to and where charged for a small carvery instead of a large... Whole thing was disappointing as we went for a birthday meal... We won't going again.

We were very privileged to book an outside buffet from the bottomley Arms Shelf. It was for a special occasion a 50th wedding anniversary , the food that was delivered was outstanding ,delicious ,such a brilliant choice excellent value for money we could’ve not asked for anything better. The service was outstanding.. the food arrived hot as we had a hot buffet and cold buffet . The delivery service was brilliant. We highly recommend Jo and her amazing team to everyone .

Great food as always. Had a large fish which was thick white and beautifully cooked. Chips and peas also very good.

The food was lovely and staff couldn't do enough for us, just had a really long wait as they'd run out of certain things, but I would go again

I wanted to write a review on this place because I'd read a couple bad reviews and... I don't understand how you could rate this place low! This place is great, great location, the scones are TO DIE FOR and the rest of the food was lovely, hearty portions. I would recommend this place to anyone, we had the burger and the savoury tart— we were not disappointed. Definately plan to return at some point.

It’s always the same thing here you come away thinking it should have been really good but it never it’s the mark! The food is very average we had breakfast this time and there was supposed to be spinach on the mushrooms There was one leaf !!! The mushrooms were wet and slimy and ketchup was a very odd colour definitely not Heinz And as for the sullen faced waitress who is always on duty she really should crack a smile. Just not a friendly service at all

The food is good if the owner is there himself, otherwise you get given small portions, tasteless food

The food was fantastic , very tasty home cooking, good portion s , and a lovely ambience, wish I lived a bit nearer as I would have it as my local pub, keep up fhe good work.
