Shibden Mill Inn

The last part of the journey is through lovely countryside. The road descends down a steep hill and views are magic. We ordered our meal which naturally took a little time and well worth the wait. It is not cheap but absolutely delicious!

Everything about the Shibden Mill Inn is fantastic. The restaurant is cosy, yet spacious, and the open fire contributes to the relaxing atmosphere. All the staff members I have encountered have been exceptional. They are polite and welcoming, kindly dealing with a voucher issue that was entirely my fault, and accommodating a last minute change to my booking. This is our second visit to the Shibden Mill Inn and the food was again, delightful. We had the soup of the day, a corn and jalapeño soup with warm bread and garlic butter, followed by haddock and chips for the other half, and shepherd's pie with veg for me. Unfortunately, we didn't have room for dessert. The food is full of flavour and cooked perfectly, with generous portions. You won't leave hungry! The mocktails and ales are delicious, with plenty of drinks options. We will be visiting again.

A lovely traditional country style pub. Cosy and peaceful. Food here is exceptional. Interesting menu that is a step up from the ordinary. Service and staff are very helpful and welcoming.

We had a lovely evening here. Came here to cheer ourselves up and treat ourselves after a tough week and it did exactly that. Cosy afternoon in the pub by one fire and then moved through to dining room to another cosy fire for our dinner. It was all delicious, well-catered for intolerances (a whole dairy-free menu available) and friendly efficient staff. Good range of beers and nice wine suggestions. Had a comfy nights sleep and then a completely delicious breakfast - black pudding and sausage very good and also the raspberry jam!

The food here is exceptionally good. It’s classic gastropub fare, but made with high-quality ingredients and cooked perfectly. Beautifully presented too, with great service and a lovely atmosphere. I didn’t love the vibe upstairs—it felt a bit flat—so I’d recommend asking for a table downstairs to enjoy the open fire, the beautiful architecture, and the buzz.

What a wonderful experience. We came here for an anniversary treat and were upgraded to a suite, which was just stunning. High ceilings, unique rooms, all in keeping with an old building, whilst having modern and superior facilities. We enjoyed a fabulous meal. The guinea fowl was delicious, the staff friendly and attentive and the wine was excellent quality. Great background music, to this music fan at least... At breakfast, Emma's homemade muesli was exceptional and the hot food was consistently delicious. An absolute gem that we would love to visit again.

Absolutely superb. A night away with friends. Wish I'd known how big the lunch portion was, nearly overfilled myself before dinner! The evening meal in the restaurant was utterly superb, the flavours were incredible. Right up my street. Fabulous ambience. Rooms small but very comfortable. Staff extremely polite and friendly. The breakfast was one of the best I've ever had. Definitely the tastiest black pudding I've ever tasted.

An exquisite dining experience I wont forget. I went for the tasting menu and all 8 courses were perfection. Well balanced, seasonal, locally sourced and presented beautifully. The staff were all amazing and I could not fault the food or service. A bonus we left feeling full and will be returning to try more. A brilliant team of kitchen and service staff.
