A lovely traditional pub in a beautiful area. The landlord was friendly and the beer was excellent. We both ordered the ploughman`s lunch which when it arrived looked good. Unfortunately it was nearly all very bland and tasteless. The pate left a very unpleasant aftertaste. We both said we had not really enjoyed this lunch but everything else about The... More

After a hike just wanted a beer and a pint. Only ONE real ale on and the only sandwiches were prettied up fancy things. Grated cheese and chutney doesn't go well in a still hot part-baked baguette. A sign outside trumpetted it had won awards. I think we need to get the basic things right first: two slices of good... More

The Postgate was very friendly and found us a table straight away, there were lots of other people eating. The wood fire was inviting and reading the menu from the blackboards around the fire created a... More

We've stayed at the Postgate 3 times now. Every time has been a great experience. The atmosphere has a friendly, intimate family feel. The food and beer are both great and the location is beautiful. Will be back again soon.

Been here for dinner several times now and also tried the set menus over the winter. Food is always very good, portions are generous and extra veg is always on offer at no extra charge. Disappointed in the limited wine options by the glass - only one choice of red, white and rose and no half bottles. Considering the quality... More

When we wanted to go out and eat the owners of Sherwood Glen Guesthouse where we were staying in Sleights for the weekend recommended this place for us. (About a 10 min drive). The food was exceptional. Personally i don't mind looking at a chalk board in deciding what meal i would like, it's an olde world inn with lots... More

If you want a nice relaxing stay in the Yorkshire Moors and enjoy excellent food then here is the place. Fresh seafood and excellent steaks are the speciality. Mains range from a little over £10 to about £25 for the signature fillet steak dishes. All are excellent value for money if you appreciate good food, well cooked. We visited twice... More
