The best restaurants serving Default food in Bentham Craven Yorkshire and The Humber

Any time this place is open, do take the chance to pop in for a drink, snack or meal....a very friendly place with a good choice (including vegetarian) on the menu; the family team are happy to speedily prepare and serve just what you order in a quirky, well presented small cafe. Excellent value, quality food!

Great little breakfast stop helpful and friendly staff 🙂👍

What a marvellous place! Great beers, warm and welcoming staff, highly recommend!

Fantastic. Cannot recommend enough. Lovely atmosphere, experience and service. The owners, Heather and Mick, were lovely.

During a countryside walk we stopped off for drinks. A very traditional pub but with a great garden to the rear and charming staff. We were sorry not to be able to stay for lunch. The food looked great.

On arrival the pub does not inspire confidence in the quality of food - but it was really very good. I was dubious about the sizes of sunday roasts after reading a previous review - and to be fair, the plates do not arrive loaded with masses of veg or mash. However, we all left feeling satisfied and it really felt like well prepared, high quality food. The steak and ale pie, and steak and ale yorkie had the same filling, which was superb.

Called here on way to Lakes on back of positive tripadviser reviews. Nice comfortable cafe in middle of town. Service was a little slow but there problems with the water supply. Food was excellent ( omelette, garlic mushrooms ) and hot drinks as well. A very pleasant stopover.

Our second visit, while staying nearby on holiday. Generous portions and great value. Could have done with a reminder that it is cash only when ordering by phone, but a cash point is just round the corner. Looking forward to our next visit

When we walked in the staff were very polite. However when i went to the bar to order food there was a young girl near me who got shouted at by a member of staff while they where behind the bar, Very unprofessional !! And some of the things she said were awful overall the food was okay, we will return hoping its a more friendly experience next time.

If you are staying around the Low or High Bentham area, this is a must visit establishment. Food is fantastic, great array of drinks especially malt whisky’s and the staff were extremely friendly especially Tony and Molly who looked after us during our visit.

We absolutely love this place ! Jamal, Sam and team are absolute diamonds and will create any dish to suite your mood... Tonight for example I had a king prawn ( in the shell ) syletti naga, with lemon,onion and garlic rice with a thin an crispy garlic nan bread and a pea salad ..... Non of it as per menu, I just told Sam what I felt like and Jamal created it .... Awesome food which arrived in good time with clean warm plates and a really nicely chilled white wine.... I've been to many a fancy restaurant and this is anything but and yes it does need a lick of paint and a new chair or 3 but this little gem just hits the spot with what matters... The food and wonderful service. Love Carl and Alicea

Great spot in the centre of town nice food and drink and service friendly welcome I would defo recommend for great meal personally I would try the curry

Tons of floaters in the vinegar and it was cloudy looks like it's been spat in and that was the same on every table!

Where to even start it’s actually comical. Oh and before I start it’s worth just letting people know that when you face the owners with the truth via message or social media their approach is to become defensive, fabricate and imply false accusations to customers as an escape mechanism to deter you from the absolute shambles of a service 😂 I invite anyone who’s thinking of booking to take a look into their social media and reviews below to ensure you see my point in the above statement and give yourself a lucky escape to. The scenario…. Friday 4th August, myself, my partner, two children and our dog were due to arrive in a pre pitched pre paid tent purchased from Groupon. Within that week I had called twice to ask for some information which wasn’t very forthcoming but thought id give them the benefit of the doubt as the pictures online looked good and there was the odd good comment here and there. Friday arrived and we set off at 1:30pm for our 3 hour drive, I called The Punch Bowl out of courtesy to let them know our eta. (Again still no confirmation or correspondence from them). I got through to a person that I though was a middle aged lady but then later on came to realise it was a young man, the young man was very vague and very laid back quoting “your tent is wet through and I’ve been trying to dry it out all morning” “There is nowhere for you to stay” my response “Is this a bloody wind up” and the reply from the man “Nope” in which he persisted to put the phone down. I tried to call back and there was no answer, this was as we were travelling to the place 🙄. (On social media the owner has tried to claim they had let me know and tried to claim I was told the manger was away, this was untrue) I called again and again and it became clear that I was being ignored. We turned around and went back home, the car was fully packed we had purchased shopping, equipment, clothing and booked time off work, the children were gutted as you can imagine on a Friday afternoon it was difficult for us to try and sort something else out. My family members also had bookings 1 relative hired a caravan and the others a pitch for 2 tents they were due to arrive on the Saturday but as we had been treated in this was they were very sceptical about their arrival and tried to call also in which for hours there was no answer. Finally on the Friday night my sister in law had a phone call from this young man who’s said that the tent I was due to go to wasn’t wet through it had accidentally been double booked 😂😭 (And of course on social media they have tried to deny this) So I took to their social media site to reach out to others, it become quite clear what sort of place this was as I have been contacted by a few other people that have had similar issues and I’ve also been contacted by some of their neighbours who have stated that they are currently being investigated for fraud and have had their licence taken off them. I was also accused of all sorts over social media, I was accused of being discriminatory towards their son who is diagnosed with autism, I was accused of bullying, lying and much more…. I have left my comments on their social media site so that others can read it for themselves and see that I have in no way committed any of the above I have clearly put the facts there to insure that this doesn’t happen to anyone else. (Again the comments they have fired back at me about their personal circumstances appear to be an escape for them to try and get out of facing the facts) Also be prepared to get questioned and pin pointed by randomers that live on their site trying to back their corner, it’s actually quite funny. The point I’m making is my time is precious I do not care about the money I care about the inconvenience of having to take time off work, pre plan, the effort of getting everything together, the journey but most of all letting the children down and seeing their faces that’s what this place should be thinking about! I received a text message from Mr.Trayner to ask me to give him a call, I called and was asked what the problem was this was a day later and I was trying to sort a day out for the children so by then after all of the social media abuse I just couldn’t be bothered he apologised (like he had read it from a script) and again said my son has autism but he is a university graduate (as another means of trying to make me feel guilty and escape from the mess they had caused) he said get a refund from groupon and he agreed to take the false accusations from social media (which are still there) Top and bottom of it is save yourself the hassle and have a lucky escape.

We keep trying this Chinese because it's just down the road from us . I Thought I would try a chilli dish of Chicken garlic chilli with mushrooms, it had too many mushrooms . It wasn't very good or hot . I think I will give up on Chinese food.
