The best restaurants serving British food in Upper Wharfedale Craven Yorkshire and The Humber

Travelling across from Lancashire into Yorkshire we took the very scenic route and on a lovely October afternoon we eventually arrived at Betty’s Vintage Hut where we were warmly greeted by Ann the proprietress. After letting our two black Flat Coated Retrievers have a quick leg stretch, we were soon seated in the vintage hut and the cake stands were piled high with delicious looking goodies and plates of sandwiches. Tea and hot water came in huge pots and I don’t know why it tastes better from china cups, but it does! Everything we ate was delicious, fresh and home made. Ann was very thoughtful and caring with just the right amount of attentiveness. We had the company of a group of four delightful ladies which added to our enjoyment and easy conversation flowed between us and Ann, making the whole experience one we will fondly remember. We all came away with boxes of the surplus food we hadn’t managed to consume and memories of a lovely afternoon. Very well done Ann.

We stayed over for one night's bed and breakfast. We had our evening meal in the pub. Everything was fantastic. Food was plentiful and tasty, the onsite brewed IPA is an excellent pint and slipped down very easily. The room was basic but it was comfortable, spotless with everything we needed. Okay so there was no TV but we were there for one night's accommodation and to meet friends so it wasn't a big deal . They did have a TV in the room we stayed in last time we visited. Breakfast was in the newly refurbished dining room. We chose our cooked breakfast the night before. The cooked option was beautiful, well cooked using local ingredients. Honestly - you cannot go wrong staying here, but book well ahead. The accommodation is limited, I think 3 rooms and a family room. Great family business in a fantastic setting.

We were staying at the campsite round the corner and popped in here for a drink on Friday night. We got chatting to the current owner and asked to book a table for the Saturday evening. We turned up on Saturday and were seated. The menu is written on a big board on the wall and all reasonably priced. They have a varied menu and cater for all tastes. We both ordered the slow cooked brisket and a couple of glasses of wine. The food was really great and there was loads of it. We had been here before (the year before) when it was under different management which is why some of the earlier reviews aren't great. We would definitely be coming here again, it's quieter than the other 2 pubs in the village.

Have always loved this hotel and leisure centre. I took my friend for a night away for her birthday. I couldn’t rate the staff highly enough. They were all friendly and helpful and enhanced our stay there. The food is always amazing and was glad to see the seafood platter back on the menu ( would be nice to see the Yorkshire one and the Italian one back on again) . We went for the hot stone back massage at the spa which was a great first experience. The room was way above our expectations and exceptionally clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend a night away there and we will definitely be staying again

Lovely food, lovely staff, there were 5 of us going. 3 children and 2 adults. All loved our meal and couldn't fault. Would go again!

We visited for an evening meal. It was disappointing. My husbands meal reminded us of a school dinner. Sausage and mash but no attention to detail and not great mash. A simple meal should have been presented well and cooked perfect. My steak was over cooked and lacked flavour. Overall disappointing.

A warm fire & warm welcome! Lunch break midway of walking in the dales. Tasty Fish goujon butties, chips & salad, local Lambs beer, and a brew! Relaxed friendly atmosphere, suitable for walkers, cyclists and locals alike! Check openings times.

I have left a 5 star review as I don't want my review to affect your status. However, to the owner who sent out a member of his team to ask our kids not eat their ice creams whilst we were sat outside on the benches, this was incredibly mean spirited. As a group of 8 families, we spent over £400 in the couple of hours sat outside (on drinks and food). I could completely understand if we had turned up with sandwiches etc, but a couple of ice creams bought from the local ice cream parlour (the kids also had their own cokes etc)? As a regular visitors to Kettlewell, we will take our business elsewhere in future.
