Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We were passing through Skipton, and stumbled over this lovely friendly Inn. We only had a quick drink, but the food coming out also looked amazing! The whole interior ouses charm, and is well worth a visit when in Skipton!

Visited here for an evening meal. We opted for the two for £24 which also included their large meals so we opted for large fish and chips and large bangers and mash. The fish was better that at the seaside, nice crispy batter and flaky...fish. Staff were very friendly and the pub had a good vibe. Would definitely visit again when in SkiptonMore

I had a lovely lunch with my teenage son. The food was excellent, great quality and good value for money. The service was first class (food delivered within 15 mins and staff were both helpful and polite). I loved the atmosphere in the pub. I...would highly recommend the Cock and Bottle for a lunchtime time meal.More

The food and atmosphere were excellent, friendly and attentive staff in an old fashioned but well kept pub. The guiness was as good as it should be and all reasonably priced. The Lamb and rosemary pie was delicious. The proper fish finger butty was excellent.

Booked in for a meal with my wife and two teenage children on Saturday evening. The service was excellent: friendly, quick and lots of smiles. The food was truly excellent: one Caesar salad, one Halloumi salad, lots of chips, one Ploughman’s and one sirloin steak....All cooked to perfection and big portions. I had Treacle sponge for dessert ~ delicious. The ale was spot on, the rugby was on the tv, the bill was extremely reasonable … need I say more?! Definitely a five-star experience all round! Huge thanks to all the staff 🙏🏼More

A real hidden gem of a pub. Our third time here for lunch and it never disappoints! It has a really great feel to it but its staff, service and food is what really is outstanding. Today we had the Clucker burger with extra meat...and the cajun chicken flatbread with fries. Delicious 😋More

This pub never disappoints. I don’t write many reviews but these are the best burgers I have ever had, and they now sell neck oil. 👍👍👍. Table service was great, steady and attentive without being pushy. Brilliant. The only improvement would be the chips. As...good as the chips were the burgers deserved hand cut triple cooked chips. I would have given 6 stars with those. Well done C&B. 👋👋👋More

One of the best pubs in Skipton, with a friend and welcoming atmosphere. There is also a cracking quiz each Wednesday evening.

Four of us booked for an early dinner on 13/12/23, even mid week the place was busy. The food was well received and the portions big. The value was excellent, particularly the mid week offers of £24 for two burgers or two mains. Good real...ale selection included a great pint of Theakstons. Staff were friendly and efficient, for a visit to eat I’d certainly recommend booking..All in all well worth a visit. Hugh, SkiptonMore

We went for a meal here at the Cock and Bottle and the two for £24 for 2 mains did not disappoint! The food was absolutely beautiful. I had lasagne and my partner had fish and chips. The portions were very generous, the lasagne was...cooked to perfection and rivalled my Mum's home made! (She would not be happy to know I have said that haha!) She takes great pride in her lasagne, it's one of her specialities. This one was beautiful for the second time I have had it and will definitely be coming again for more! My partner often gets food envy (lol but was very happy with his fish and chunky skin on chips. We both finished every bite and could not recommend more highly. The staff were lovely, welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The gentleman working the afternoon 3.30pm shift needs a special mention as he could not help enough. If you are looking for a great meal, great vibe and warm atmosphere with character, defo recommend!!More

Great atmosphere, cheerful host welcoming everyone, great marketing strategy in place with screens popping up with the newest offers, amazing outside space but the food... Oh such a shame! A lot of people told us so well about the place so I hope that it...wasn't our lucky day and we had just bad luck! The lamb pie tasted of beef stock and the gravy as well, my fish was dry inside and oily on the outside andtoo much battered,both chunky chip's were burnt and oily.We were really disappointed. Hopefully next time will be better because the atmosphere and staff are great.More
