The perfect vegan restaurant…

I’d been here before it went fully vegan and didn’t think much of it, but we went yesterday now it’s a vegan restaurant and WOW. It was amazing. The menu couldn’t be better, it has something for everyone. We had the most delicious sandwiches and chips after our walk, and then I had a fruit scone which was just incredible. You never would’ve guessed it was vegan. I’m so excited to have this 40 mins up the road from where I live! Will definitely be back again and again.

Superb

In a beautiful setting - stylish yet down to earth, warm and welcoming. Real fires, quirky furniture like a 'grass' chair and lots of traditional elements, room very comfy with great view over the stream.
Food is excellent - the breakfast - wow, chia pudding, pancake stack, full vegan breakfast and alot more - spoilt for choice!!!
Had evening meal too - fantastic choice and delicious.
Would highly recommend!

Pros: Excellent vegan food, Beautiful setting in gorgeous landscape, Stylish interior

Cons: Nothing

Superb afternoon tea

We visited Beck Hall for their afternoon tea as a group of 5 and it was wonderful. I was the only vegan in the group and everyone was really impressed.
The sandwiches were really creative. The scones were huge and beautifully warm with heaps of jam and cream. The cakes, flapjack and moose all tasted delicious and there was far too much for us to eat!
The service was great and atmosphere lovely. Dog friendly too which was great for us.
We will definitely be back!

Pros: Full plant based, Delicious afternoon tea, Creative menu

Bland and disappointing

I really wanted to support this place but was really disappointed by the overall experience today. Lunchtime menu isn’t that creative. Sandwiches, burger, vegan fish and chips, usual vegan choices. I opted for a pesto pasta dish that tasted like the pesto from a jar on white pasta with a couple of tomatoes thrown in. I added the tofu for an extra £3 which made the dish over £15. I won’t return for the lunchtime menu, the pubs in the village have better hearty vegan options.

Hi @mockingbird
We’re so sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy it, the pesto definitely isn’t from a jar, we’re an all-fresh independent restaurant and make our pumpkin seed and basil pesto on site. We do have lots of different lunch items to choose from and a full a la carte menu in the evenings. We only became fully plant based on December 1st, but we’re constantly evolving. I’m currently in London studying a diploma in plant-based culinary arts and we have so many ideas and many more dishes coming including our seasonal specials menus. It’s hard enough for vegan businesses in this world and whilst we value all feedback and try to grow from all reviews, it’s really disappointing to see you recommending the neighbouring mostly meat-serving chain pubs when we’ve taken such a risk for this cause and doing everything to offer great vegan food which has mostly been well received.

I could have gone further with my review tbh. The coffee was terrible and I heard one of the members of staff saying ‘we don’t have normal things like milk here’. Not really what you expect from a fully vegan place. I did pass on my thoughts about the pasta while I was in the bar, looked like some of management were sat near me on laptops but nobody notified them. I ate a decent curry in the pub not so long ago, it was a tastier and healthier option. HappyCow is for people to honestly review, and that is what I have done.

Amazing lunch

All the food on the menu sounded amazing! Even my non-vegan partner enjoyed it and the highlight was definitely the sticky toffee pudding. I can’t wait to go back and the staff were so helpful and made it a lovely afternoon out. #Veganuary

Absolutely Incredible 😋

Had an amazing meal here, the options were absolutely divine and the staff and atmosphere were lovely. I had the sweet potato pakora wrap with the homemade soup with sticky toffee pudding for desert - one of the best meals out I’ve had in a while and will be back again and again!!

Fully vegan and dog friendly!

We have just stayed for two nights with our two dogs. I have never stayed at a more dog friendly hotel. The Vegan menu is so good .We had afternoon tea when we arrived which was huge and then we had dinner in the restaurant on the second night. A lovely varied menu and the same at breakfast - all delicious x

Perfect stay and meals for vegans

Went just before it turns fully vegan in 3 days! If this is the quality now, I can’t wait to see what they deliver following the change over. Some of the best vegan food I’ve had. Partner has a nut allergy and always catered for and mentioned before we did! We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights/3 days and will return.

Pros: Variety , Speedy, Fresh

Cons: Nothing

A Vegan treasure.

This place is owned by vegans. The chef provides top quality vegan food. And from December 1st becomes the first totally English vegan hotel and restaurant. It hits all the buttons for us.

Pros: Excellent Vegan food (100% vegan from December), First class service, Great atmosphere

Cons: Nothing to dislike!

Would love to go back to spend the night!

The menu looked great but the food was way better than I'd expected! We got the seitan rib to share- my only criticism here is that it could have been cut into two or four to make it more tender when cooked but the flavour was excellent. Samosas were a perfect level of spice, with lovely crisp pastey. I got the banana blossom fish n chips, easily the best banana blossom fish I've had as it was separated into strips before being battered rather than being one soggy lump! The restaurant and hotel are dog friendly, there's a gorgeous outside seating area by the river which must be so nice in summer - it was pouring with rain when we went but it was nice watching a kingfisher through the window! Would definitely like to go back and stay the night.
Vegan options are labelled PB for plantbased and a disclaimer at the start of the menu does point out the cross contamination risk but they clearly care about the food they're making, and everything about the restaurant is to a high standard with great attention to detail so I wasn't as worried as I might have been in other pubs and restaurants. They also have a gender neutral and accessible toilet within the restaurant which I liked. They've also got one of the best children's menus I've seen in a place like this - you can build your own meal with a range of options which included vegan sausages (think they were Richmond) or vegan fish bites, then two sides. Really good portion size and options young uns will actually want to eat! They also do smaller meals like beans on toast suitable for toddlers.

Pros: Dog friendly , Lots of carefully thought out, tasty vegan options, Beautiful setting by the river

Cons: Seitan could have been cut up for tenderness, Chunky chips are basically half a potato

Plant based delights

Lovely setting right by the stream, great service, really good beer plus an amazing selection of plant-based (and normal) food including starters such as seitan rips, banana blossom fish and chips, stroganoff, plus lots of other mains, tapas options, sandwiches, wraps and desserts 😋

Dog friendly, super clean toilets, can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.

Pros: Varied selection of vegan options , Lovely setting/staff, Great service

Lovely Vegan Friendly Hotel

Loved this place, so much choice for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. Set in the most beautiful part of the UK. Great walks, we loved the one to Janet's Foss, Gordale Scar and Malham Cove. We don't have a dog, but most guests did, it was the most welcoming and accommodating place for them.

Pros: Lots of choice, menu about 50% vegan , Beautiful setting, lovely staff, Very dog friendly if you have one

Cons: None unless you don't like being around dogs!

Unbelievably Good

Absolutely brilliant food and a great atmosphere/decor.
Dogs are not only welcome but cared for by the staff.

Vegan Sunday roast is the best I’ve had out and about. Sticky toffee pudding was sensational.

Loads of vegan options. Tapas, starters, sandwiches, mains and desserts.
All sides are vegan inc chips & fries

Pros: As many vegan as non vegan options, Full vegan wine list and most drinks are too, Vegan Sunday roast

Cons: Expensive-ish but worth it

Delightful bistro with great vegan dishes

Really delightful bistro in an idyllic location next to the river in Malham. Very nice interior, plenty of space, and a good atmosphere. The food was excellent with a good variety of dishes. Great vegan options including dessert. We all went for the Sunday roast vegan version, in our case with vegan sausages. Apparently we were told that the owners are vegan and this is evident in the quality of the vegan choices on the menu. The sticky toffee pudding with salted caramel ice-cream was heavenly. There was a good range of vegan ice-creams from Northern Bloc. The service was also absolutely great, friendly and attentive. What a great place. We will definitely return and have booked in for cream tea.

Pros: Great vegan options including dessert, Lovely setting, interior space, and atmosphere, Friendly and attentive service

Big choice

There was a big choice of vegan options...unfortunately not for this vegan! For me there was too much tofu, far too much onion in everything and hardy any veg. I would have given 3 stars but the vegan sticky toffee pudding was delish, it was worth the visit just for that.
Staff were efficient and friendly.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options, Fab vegan pud, Drinks labeled vegan

Cons: Too much tofu, Bit pricey , Needs fresh veg

Did not quite live up to its potential

I had been looking forward to this but they forgot some elements of the dish- gluten free bread was a complete letdown. Great flavour to the vegan wellington but skimpy on the filling only two small mushrooms I would have expected more for £15.

It was okay overall but when I eat out I expect dishes that are at least as good as I can make but should be better

Pros: Good option both Vegan and gluten free, Good service, Nice decor

Cons: A bit pricey , GF and vegan options had cheap nasty elements, Allows dogs but lots of barking
