Stopped off here for lunch on a cold April day to find a roaring fire in the bar and an equally warm welcome from the landlord. There is a wonderful choice of food on the menu which is served all day from snacks to full three course meals. The steak and ale pie was delicious, served with vegetables which were... More

We were made to feel really welcome by Landlord and locals alike in the relaxed surroundings of the bar which provided a good selection of fine ales.The evening meals in the restaurant were as good as the menu suggested and a hearty breakfast to cater for all...

I know I'm biased, but The Bridge is a great pub! We're down for a long weekend and have eaten here two nights running and I'm already eyeing up what I could have for a third meal! The menus have been changed a bit and there's a few changes to the main menu, as well as some lovely 'specials' and... More

The sign outside said muddy boots and dogs welcome, which we found to be very true, having walked to the inn from Gunnerside with our dog. We received a warm welcome from the staff and enjoyed an excellent pint whilst warming up in front of the blazing open fire. The menu and specials for the evening meal were imaginative, and... More

I stopped here for lunch yesterday as I was driving through the Dales and I have to say I wasn't disappointed. A very warm welcome, a very nice pint of real ale and a god pub lunch. The cozy atmosphere in the bar with the log fire was really warming. I went for the fish and chips and the fish... More

We have just returned from an enjoyable weekend at The Bridge Inn and it now ranks as one of our favourites. The rooms are comfortable, although a little dated, however what sets this apart from other Dales Inn's is the food! All the produce is locally sourced and the whole menu was tempting - a clear love of cooking guarantees... More

My partner and I visited this authentic Inn in the heart of beautiful Swaledale for a one night stay between Christmas and New Year 2011, and were so delighted that we paid a repeat visit again this year. As other reviewers have said, this is traditional country inn. It's dog and muddy-boots friendly, with a lovely roaring fire in the... More

Whether you really love the Bridge Inn or are disappointed with it will depend on the sort of person you are. If you want luxury rooms with pampering, then don't go. If you want a comfortable room in a really great pub serving delicious food, then you should love it. The place is muddy boot and dog friendly, so it's... More
