Good pubs required: Yorkshire Dales   
Does anyone have any recommendations of good real ale and good food pubs in 
the Yorkshire Dales, especially in the Hawes area?

Thanks,

Dan

Can't give you specific information but Hawes is only about 25 miles
from Masham and the Black Sheep Brewery, well worth a visit though I
haven't seen their Yorkshire Square Ale for quite a while, I fear that
the E.U. and its idiot rules might have scuppered a fine brew.

We stay in the Hawes/Gale often, but lately (with the change
in ownership of The Board) we end up eating and drinking
in other towns. Try The Crown in Askrigg or some of the
pubs in Leyburn. The Rose and Crown in Bainbridge can
be pretty nice, but the hand-pulled ale is limited.
There is also the White Swan in Richmond. Oh yes, try
the micro-brew-pub just outside of Leyburn (cannot
remember the name at the moment -- but it was really
good). Ooh Ooh, the Wensleydale Brewery at The
Forrester Arms Pub in Carleton just outside Leyburn.

So there.

Now you got me going. Drive west from Hawes to Dent
and go to The Sun for great Dent Ales from the Dent
Brewery. Especially try T'owd Tup.

I believe they have Yorkshire squares in both slate & steel, the yeast 
from the slate will not live in the steel so they  have to use 2 
different yeast's, how they cope with cross contamination I don't know.

Yeah, but it's a real easy drive from Hawes, and I love
Hawes, but I haven't liked many pubs there since so many
have changed hands to cater to the weekend trade.

road?

Probably just 'cause I don't know it. I've always gotten
nice Dent ales at The Sun so saw no need to go elsewhere.
Usually we are just "passin' thru" .

Can you provide some info for my next trip please?

I already did!

On the other hand... you could buy a nice shiny new Cumbria Real Ale
Guide! details from website in my sig.

Oops - just had a look in mine - doesn't seem to be Hambleton beered
any more. Must be 10-12 years since our branch camping trip there!!

George & Dragon - 3 Dent beers and Boddingtons.

Thanks to everyone!

I'll be taking a sizeable list of good pubs with me when I head off in the 
morning!

Thanks again,

Happy drinking!
