The food is always of good quality and good value and our visit this time was no exception. It would be good to have just one or two more choices of light dessert; there is just Eaton Mess or ice cream (just standard flavours, not particularly special). All other desserts are puddings.

Warm and friendly welcome, four of us dined, the men had pie and the women had salmon. The salmon was cooked to perfection and the men said pie was delicious, their only complaint was lack of gravey! True Yorkshireman! We hope to be back soon.

Great place to eat. Extensive menu with a good selection of meals. Our party had a variety of meals for our Sunday lunch - roast, fish & chips, pies and scampi. All lovely. Good to have the option of a smaller portion as the larger portions were generous.

Unfortunately the base of the mushroom starter broke up too easily so it was a bit difficult to get on the fork, other than that the meal was lovely

Proper "pub food" at sensible prices in a welcoming and cosy old pub with gorgeous views over the Yorkshire countryside. One of the best steak and ale pies I've had in a long long time !

Tasty food and friendly staff. Good place for a family group. A lot of mixed age groups for Saturday lunch when we went. They were happy with two of us sharing one dish, and there were a couple of vegetarian options. Cosy with open fires on a February day. Nice views, and good area for walking.

New owners were very friendly, but the pub had little atmosphere as there were only a few tables occupied on a Saturday night. Pub decor is “traditional” but tired and dated. Food was okay apart from the chickpea curry which was inedible: large chunks of hard veg in a yellow cream sauce that bore no resemblance to curry. Won’t be returning as there are so many other amazing places to eat in the local area. Sorry, I can’t recommend, and I suspect it won’t last long without major changes.

The Ford Inn serves a good variety of traditional pub food with friendly, yet unobtrusive service. On my visit today there was a real mix of diners. Couples, families, birthday celebrations and groups of friends all of which added to a pleasant atmosphere.

Good food and friendly service. Had I realised the main course portion was going to be so large I would have chosen a small option to leave room for dessert. But the mains certainly gave both quantity and quality for the money.

Wonderful warm welcome when we arrived, lovely friendly couple. Not nearly as busy as last time we were there, but these are new owners & had only been in approx. 4 weeks. We were a party of 4 & the meal was ok, I had the turkey Xmas dinner which was very nice, but sorry, can not do al dente Brussel sprouts... & the Yorkshire puds were a bit soggy. we had ordered a bottle of wine, which they seem to have forgotten, had to remind them, so had already started our meal by the time it arrived. I think once they get settled & more people book meals, the service should get better, it needs too, as we could only count 3 other couples eating the whole time we were there.

Lovely food all freshly cooked. Good hospitality. New owners finding their feet and putting a great deal of effort into getting things right. The pub is lovely with lots of seating options but what is so good is that you are not on top of one another and can hear yourselves speaking.

Easily the best restaurant we have been to in many years, good food, good service, a nice relaxed eating area and very reasonable priced, but beware the portions are quite large. We will definitely be going back.

Lovely traditional pub, large and uncrowded. Seemed a little short staffed but noticed they were quietly training someone the same afternoon. Food was good (although Yorkshire puddings need practice as they were a little small). Friendly staff, will go again.

Excellent Sunday lunch with good portion sizes. Service was professional but not obtrusive. Too full for dessert of which there were only 4 options to choose from
