Before starting this post, I must remind my readers that all opinions that are given are My own opinions, and are not some sort of Gallup poll survey. 🙂
Right Spot the pub 14 – We have walked past this pub on several occasions and thought ” we will have to call in there”, but never got around to it. I have heard it called “The best pub in ####### ” . I could find one a hundred yards away (and have done) that has a far better choice of beers, and I will follow that up with a later Spot The Pub. Spot The Pub 14 is in a Yorkshire City/Town has guest accommodation, and its own dining area , it is an old building, fairly dimly lit, – hence my blurred pictures ( I don’t use flash- that’s my excuse ) . It always pays to call early.
This would appear to be a Timothy Taylors (Keithley) pub, a sign outside says “guest ales served” so we will have a look.
Nice friendly atmosphere, lets look what is being served.
Now I have the idea that I’m not too fond of Timothy Taylors ” Landlord” – probably down to overindulgence once , and not feeling too well afterwards, – so where is the guest ale? – beats me, so its Golden Best for me then.
Diet whatever for Mrs W. That Golden Best went down well 🙂 Not too bad this Timothy Taylors really
Lets try the food, – Its not cheap – it had better be good.
Here it is,
Wessyman got Fish and Chips with a Smidgen of bright green pollyfilla and a tub full of shamrock ! – not as good as the “Fat ‘ole” ! Mrs W had bangers and Mash with peapods
This struck me as pub grub trying to be Jamie Olivers – I need another beer.
Or maybe a bottle of that
OK a last look around.
That’s the giveaway
To sum up – Beer kept well and good for Timmy Taylor fans. Food – Mushy peas should not be a bright green smear on the plate ! – and I don’t eat Shamrock. Would I go again? yes but I would walk past it to go to a ( in my opinion) better pub. – No prize just the thrill of being the first to name it 🙂
Yes it’s The Woolly Sheep
The Woolly Sheep Skipton.
The window was more of a hindrance than a help – I thought that was a black cat – though once I’d identified the pub I can see it’s part of their sheep logo.
There aren’t that many Timothy Taylor pubs with accommodation but the few that exist all helpfully show photos on their websites.
Never been there.
Might check it out sometime
The fish & chips look lovely. Save an order for me!
Come on over – I Will treat you 🙂
I’ve no idea when I will return to England. Perhaps one day… 🙂 Merci beaucoup!
