Merry Christmas to all of our loving patrons, holiday-makers, and those that just like good beer!

There's only 1 thing better than sitting in front of a log fire on a cold, bleary winter's night, and that is sitting in front of a log fire with your favourite drink in hand. Well, taking a trip to an exotic country may just trump it, but we don't provide that, and what we do provide is much less expensive!

Sunday's back and Monday creeps ever closer. The anxious search for Friday begins yet again...

There are no better places on a cold winter Saturday than your warm, welcoming village pub. Well, we would say that!

We think Fridays are best spent together. You and your pint of beer, your gin & tonic, your wine, your cider, or whatever you like to drink. Go on then, what is your favourite tipple?

Happy Friday everyone!

Is another week over, or has another just begun?

It's that time of the week again!

Our sincerest condolences to the families of everyone on the helicopter that crashed outside Leicester City's stadium on Saturday night...

Sunday dinner is rarely better than it is with a pint or two, or maybe a gin!

What's a Saturday without a beer?

It's Wednesday, why not split your week up with a drink or two?

Whether it's a drink or one of our fantastic Sunday dinners, we may just have what you need this Sunday...

Put the 14th November into your diary and take part in our annual Tommy Procter Memorial charity quiz night, where you'll enjoy a fantastic night and can get a pie & pea supper for just £2.50!

What's better than a beer on a Friday evening?

Happy Saturday everyone! has there ever been a better excuse for a beer?

We'd like to thank everyone who came to what turned out to be a fantastic day yesterday! Despite the weather-enforced change of plans we think everyone had a great time.

Unfortunately, due to the poor weather we have had to call the cricket off today. Not to worry though, the dark Gargrave clouds do have a silver lining, as we'll be having some fun and games at the Masons from 3pm, with Dominoes, darts and much more going on!

We had two nights at the Masons Arms as we were using it as a base for going to the Land Rover off road centre . We couldn't have possibly found a better place to stay , the Landlord and Landlady gave us such a warm welcome , they are very friendly and very helpful and are an excellent source of local information . The rooms are clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable . As for the food well cooked and delicious mostly using good quality produce .

We were sad when it was time to leave and I am sure we will be back .

100% Recommended !

Very busy when we went for a meal on a Sunday evening but we had pre booked our table so were seated straight away. The landlord and staff were very welcoming. Menu was very varied and everything coming from the kitchen looked delicious. We enjoyed our meal and good portion size too. Very relaxed pub which is just what we wanted. Enjoyed the evening very much.

The food was excellent as was the customer service. They couldn’t have been more welcoming. I can’t recommend the Belly pork enough it was abfab.

The Wainwright's was top class, my friend enjoyed the Theakstons XB, we had a great beef sandwich and chips. The new management which arrive a year or so ago I think has really upped the pubs game, it's very friendly.

Stayed here earlier this summer for the Skipton food and drink festival. Excellent comfortable accommodation. Dogs made very welcome. Lots of local dog walks at the side of the river bank within 5 minutes walk of the pub. Will definitely go again. So much we didn't see in the area.

Stayed at the Masons Arms for one night in January. Had dinner, bed and breakfast in a very good deal and stayed in room 6. Bed was huge and also had a single and pull out bed. Good was delicious and breakfast was fantastic. Lovely staff and made to feel very welcome. Would definitely return. :)

Serves Taylor's what more could you ask for! Very friendly, good food, great little pub, full of locals and visitors, all rub along well, would reccommend

My Son and I decided to take my Mum out for the day..She has to use a Wheelchair to get about...so I checked on line where we could go for lunch..The Masons Arms came up and I'm so glad it did..We had a lovely time and were made very welcome..Great food, in a nice traditional country pub.We will defiantly be going back again.

Just spent a wonderful evening including accommodation... the food was up to their 5 star quality. Accommodation very comfortable and clean. Hearty breakfast. But most of all Nikki and John great hosts and their staff are a credit to them. Well worth a visit .. I will definitely be returning

I’ve been staying at the Premier Inn at Gargrave for 4 nights, and on my first night I decided to try the Masons Arms in the village for my evening meal. As I walked inside the gentleman behind the bar, presumably the landlord, was very welcoming and helpful. The food I ordered was spot on, I went for the Masons steak and ale pie, very tasty. In fact, I enjoyed it so much I have been coming back to this pub for my dinner every night this week! If you find a great place to eat, why bother going elsewhere?! The food has been good each night I’ve been here. Over the different nights I’ve tried the lasagne, chicken mushroom and tarragon pie, and the luxury cottage pie, all very good indeed. Good value too at under £10 for each of those meals. The pub itself seems like a really great local. Several of the local regulars said hello to me even just on my second night, so it’s a very friendly place too. I wouldn’t hesitate to return to the Masons Arms.

Food was perfect in every way, varied menu, homely fresh food, warning and filling generous portions and a very accommodating Pub Landlord fulfilling all the kids' requests, all in a traditional Yorkshire pub - as it should be!!!

Fantastic food and ale, bar staff very friendly can't complain about anything lovely pub try it you won't be disappointed ,,, p.s. book before go , and if you haven't they will try to fit you in

Excellent meal from an extensive menu. The lamb was marvellous and vegetable lasagne one if the best I have eaten. The Boltmakers got the thumbs up from the expert!

Booked a group booking for a wedding,

the owner (john) was amazing, couldn’t do enough for us , breakfast was lovely and the rooms were exceptional clean, great value for money



Thanks again



Ps, that’s for l borrowing us the cuff links

Been to the Masons arms twice now and both times the food, service, beer and the lovely wood fire has been absolutely perfect.



Highly recommend!

Absolutely yummy especially as they cater for the ‘special one’ gluten free’ fish chips and mushy peas ...... perfect �

A "proper" local in the centre of a great village.

The atmosphere is usually lively, the beer is well-kept and the menu comprises many locally sourced ingredients freshly prepared and served by friendly team.

Handy location, staff more than helpful, home cooked meals plentiful and delicious, room clean and comfortable, even the customers in the bar made us feel at home. We had a good time

A very personable welcome from Tim. We enjoyed a lovely evening meal with several choices of fish. Excellent breakfast. Good service all round, we will definitely be back if we are in the area again. Would recommend the Masons Arms.
