The Cavendish Arms

We won’t be serving food tonight, as Nell the pub dog has died today

Great to be visited by Mark Cavendish’s sponsors Dimension Data earlier today- although we think Paul Barwick on the right might not be an official member...!

Fantastic day so far for the Tour de Yorkshire- brilliant turnout and atmosphere!

The beer garden is officially open again!

Spring seems to finally be here! Hopefully the weather will hold long enough to get some time in the garden!

Many thanks to Tom French for our newly rebuilt dry stone wall! Just in time for the snow at Easter...!

We now stock gluten free beers, thanks to Hambleton Ales!

Many thanks to everyone who came to our quiz last night- we raised a brilliant £450 for Prostate Cancer UK!

Don’t forget- our quiz is TONIGHT! 9pm!

Due to having a new boiler fitted, we won’t be serving food this evening- back to normal tomorrow lunchtime! We are open for drinks tonight

We’ve now used the last of our plastic drinking straws, and are happy to introduce our new bio-degradable paper straws!

Our next quiz is next Friday, 2nd March!

Free supper starts now- pulled brisket sandwiches! Also, music, drinks and dancing!

Many thanks to one of our customers for bringing us this photo of former landlord Harry Fisher Price- landlord here from 1917-1928! We’ll be putting a copy of this up in the tap room with our other photos of ex-landlords, if you have any of them, please drop us a copy in and we’ll put it up!

A fantastic quiz night raising for Manorlands Hospice- so far around £730! Congratulations to winners Paul and Denise Boothman, and Stephen and Joanne Carlin’s on winning!

What a lovely village pub, friendly bar staff, great food, nice atmosphere- we’ll definitely be back.

Went to the Cavendish arms on Sunday very friendly and inviting staff dog friendly the food was excellent and you got plenty I will definitely go again.

We'd stopped in here before on our way to Barden so thought we'd try it again. Very friendly staff, great lunch menu and the portions are generous! This from an American (Texas) used to HUGE portions! I had the Brie & Bacon sandwich on focaccia bread which was lovely, warm and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, it also came with crisps, coleslaw, cranberry relish and a little salad. All our party, 5 adults, enjoyed their selections, except my sister was a tad disappointed they'd run out of smoked salmon!

Cavendish Arms is a bit off the beaten path but really a fine place to stop and soak in the real pub life with the locals! We ate in the bar area but they have a dining room and beer garden with play equipment for the kiddos!

Next trip across the pond we will definitely give Skipton a miss for lunch and drive a little further to stop at The Cavendish Arms!

We had lovely food cooked to order really good. My family and I enjoyed our evening. Staff very nice young lady who served us was very professional.

Very nice local pub . Food was delicious and prices were excellent.

My husband and I had a wonderful meal here this week to celebrate our 25th Wedding anniversary. Food was delicious and very good value for money. Landlady very friendly and lovely welcoming atmosphere

Lovely place run by lovely people my friend Pat Douggen´s sister Leigh and her husband ,not to mention their wonderful son.I loved their food and the welcome we got and would reccommend it to anyone who is in or near Skipton .Looking forward to visiting you all the next time I travel home to England from Colombia .CONGRATULATIONS !

Lovely little spot, always call for a pint or a bite to eat when I'm passing. Would highly recommend.

Just popped in for lunch and cannot recommend this place enough. We were very warmly welcomed by Leigh and offered some local ales which looked great, I decided however to try the speciality lager St Mungo, lovely pint.

We had a prawn salad sandwich and a steak baguette both of which were beautiful and very filling. The service from the owners and staff was second to none and made us feel very welcome!

We will definitely be back! A true dales gem!

Thank you.

I have nothing but good things to say about The Cavendish Arms. I’ve eaten there twice and the food is delicious. The pub itself is warm and inviting. The staff are really welcoming and attentive, and you can tell that great pride is taken to ensure customers receive excellent customer service.

5 of us arrived soon after they'd finished serving food at 2pm , but they were more than happy to make us sandwiches. We all commented on the warm welcome.
