The cod was flaky and perfectly cooked - much better than what is had at a popular steak house earlier this week, in fact the whole meal was far superior and cheaper too! The pork belly skin was deliciously crispy and the pork pull-apart juicy and tender, Despite the size of our party (10) there were no errors, delays or issues. Drinks came fast and were very good! The servers were wonderful, efficient and very friendly. I'd recommend this place to anyone and hope were able to return ourselves!

For a drink on a Saturday afternoon I'd highly recommend it. However, I went with my girlfriend's family for a meal, and this was where the place fell down. The price wasn't great, £17 for a steak which came with no vegetables or chips. This seems a little steep unless its going to be an excellent steak. It wasn't. Three of us ordered the sirloin steak, all of us asked for medium-rare, all of them arrived fully brown all the way through. I guess the sauce was OK and the herby chips were nice. All in all, I'd recommend it for a drink but not for a meal, pity because as I said, its a gorgeous little place.

The conversation simply flows organically between the bar and the patrons because it is such a homely relaxed environment. Everyone who came in said 'Hello' to the rest of the room, so rare and harking back to a time when people really DID know your name- it reminds me so much of the village pubs I worked in as a teenager, a place where you might go even for just a half pint on the way home...not for the booze but to see a friendly face or two and soak up some much needed human interaction in what is an increasingly insular and lonely world for so many. Tracy was serving and had a very restricted menu due to it being the season and all that, the delivery was due the next day but she managed to rustle us up two roast beef dinners and the richest, most dense and biggest portion of steak and ale pie I have EVER seen. The taste was fabulous. And at £5.95 for the roasts and £6.95 for the pie it was a real treat. We even managed to slug down a pudding, a fruity suet pudding with gravy for Ade and chocolate pud with icecream for me.....again epic portions and perfectly cooked- all for a mere £2.50. It was like going home for Sunday dinner...and Tracy was Mum. Just complete pleasure and contentment from start to finish. I couldn't like this place more.

Having read the reviews I was brimming over with excitement to visit this little diamond. The food…read moresounded incredible, the building a treasure, and the staff a delight. As is sometimes the case, reading so many high reviews, your expectations can be raised beyond the achievable and so I was hoping for magic. We mightn't have found magic, but what we did find was a truly delightful pub in the midst of Hunslet. Let me start by attempting to paint the picture of just how gorgeous the architecture is. So bizarre is it to see such an amazing building in the midst of some rather droll redbrick housing estate, that it almost beggars belief. I found it fascinating - was Hunslet previously some kind of high end area of Leeds back in its day? How did this gem come about? Fortunately, the pub has kept various historical documents as to its origins, some of which are in a display cabinet detailing the story, a lot of which are used to decorate this fabulous structure. The pub is built in traditional fashion, with a long hallway as the entry, bar and tap room to the left, snugs and little nooks to the right. It reminds me of The Grove, both delightful anachronisms, and worth visiting to gaze upon. It's also now a Grade II* listed building. We were welcomed in, and I keenly asked about the, now Yelp-infamous, lunch. We were given a somewhat cryptic response - it wasn't a no, but it wasn't a yes. It wasn't really even a maybe! Apparently they'd a group booking so might not have been able to accommodate, so we ordered drinks, after hearing that is was possible potentially in an hour or so. Being now a Leeds Brewery owned spot, there's plenty of decent ale to keep you busy, whilst you have a gander and a natter. Another of our group bravely decided to ask about lunch after about half an hour, and the happy news was that they'd discovered some veg from their stores, so we could indeed dine that afternoon! I'm guessing, being so far out, that Sundays aren't always a busy affair - my advice might be to ring ahead and plan the visit, making sure they stock up before! After working out what the vegetarian in the party could eat (all the roast veg, and a veggie lasagne as the main part - random but suitable!) we ordered more drinks whilst we waited. Everyone was delighted that veggie gravy was also available. Soon enough, four stacked plates arrived before our eyes, and we tucked in. It's a proper home cooked vibe, so don't expect the likes of fine dining, but where it lacked in that area it made up for it in spades by being so damned hearty and cheap. I believe it was about six quid for a sizeable plate. The gravy, I thought, was delicious and the Yorkshire pud really tasty. I could have had several more! As much as there were quirks to the afternoon, the staff were all very lovely, and really helpful - especially since we mightn't have been fed at all that afternoon! There's nothing like a decent ale, a post-dinner game of random scrabble, a gorgeous pub, and an afternoon of laughter so for that I'm definitely a fan. I really want to come back and try the food again, especially as others have loved it so, so watch this space for an update. Another interesting thing would be to sink a few on an eve, and check out the vibe on a weekend. We'll see! Give them a visit, it's a beaut.

The elegant decor was classy but cosy which formed a wonderful back drop for our small family gathering. The menu offered alot of choice, which catered for all tastes and the smell from the thai dishes really made our mouths water. definatly worth popping back to sample. The roast I had was amazing, a good sized portion with everything cooked to perfection. Even our two young children had happy tummys when we left and we all know how hard it is to please young kids. A thumbs up from them means its definatly worth a return visit. Its also worth mentioning that you don't need to book and that the food came in good time after it was ordered. In some pubs you can be waiting an age but here, despite it being fairly busy the staff were on top of things.

The food arrived in no time and we were out of the door in well under an hour.

It seems there are more pubs than people in Otley sometimes, and when like the Three Horseshoes…read morehides among the terrace cottages of the main road, anyone could be forgiven for not paying attention. It's not an unforgettable pub, but it is one of the less remarkable in the town in my book - although it's always busy so maybe I'm missing something. The main selling point of this place is undeniably the fact that it has benches outside the front door, practically on the road (seriously, if a car mounts the kerb you're a gonner) enabling you to watch the historic market town go about it's business, something which few other pubs round here can boast. Sitting out the front is a rare pleasure that makes the Thee Horseshoes a fairly good place to be on a rare sunny day. Aside from that, it's a very average pub and has everything you'd expect - because it's usually so busy, the atmosphere is better than most other Otley pubs too, which is a bonus.

I kind of feel I should wear cowboy boots and rock up with a mysterious grey between my legs but I'm guessing that isn't appropriate for Garforth. However, we are talking meat here and grilled. Pure and simple. With that in mind I went for a light starter and fish and cheese feature quite highly. The main event has to be well the mains though. It's steak or meat just the way you like it. That's not excluded vegetarians. You can have a stilton and mushroom burger or try the veggie special of the day. In fact I went for the stilton and mushroom burger and it met my seal of approval. Good stuff so far. Don't forget to save some room for the sweets too but only if you like more American themed ones. How about some brownie, apple pie or New York cheese cake. I better stop dribbling now or I'll get carted away by the funny police. To add to it's appeal the price won't set you back an American airfare either so there really are plenty of reasons to have high noon here.

I am asking the reader to help me out here. I need you answer two questions in your head and hold…read moreonto those answers as you read this review. Firstly would you expect Christmas in a restaurant to be busier than normal? Secondly, what would you expect a STEAK house to specialise in and sell lots of? I attended this restaurant with some work colleagues for a Christmas meal. All was well and we were seated in reasonable time and allowed allowed time to peruse the rather satisfactory menu. The problems started when we ordered, they had been busier than usual and didn't have any steak! A member of staff explained that they had had to send a delivery of steak back because it was substandard (hang on, they boast in the menu that they source their steak from carefully approved farms to maintain a high standard). I was told that they had some fillet steak left but that it was reserved for more expensive meals so rather than just paying extra for the fillet steak I would have to order a complete set meal costing rather a lot. We settled for what ever we could find on the menu within our budgets. To be fair the staff were pleasant and helpful in most ways and were not to blame for the mismanagement. At a later date, and after further complaints, we were given vouchers to use if we would return for another meal. We did this and were able to sample the steak which was as excellent a steak as I have experienced.
