The Ford Inn

This was our first visit since The Ford changed hands. Very welcoming, with a good atmosphere and good food. We will definitely be coming here again.

The menu had an excellent choice, the food was of a high standard. The cost was about right for the standard of food and drink. Overall good value.

We had a lovely meal nice clean pub . Landlady and landlord very nice .food was great could do with a bit more choice. Would go back

The food was very good and the staff were friendly and welcoming we were glad we had booked a table as they all taken.The pub was nice and warm on a cold night. We have been eating at the Ford a long time and we shall continue to go often

As usual fantastic food and hospitality thie owners have really turned this place around . I have had most treats off the menu (crispy belly pork still fave) and cannot find fault with the taste and quality 👍😀

Proper "pub food" at sensible prices in a welcoming and cosy old pub with gorgeous views over the Yorkshire countryside. One of the best steak and ale pies I've had in a long long time !

Never been disappointed yet with the food or the service- excellent, the Sunday lunch is not to be missed but please book as this is a very popular place to eat

Tasty food and friendly staff. Good place for a family group. A lot of mixed age groups for Saturday lunch when we went. They were happy with two of us sharing one dish, and there were a couple of vegetarian options. Cosy with open fires on a February day. Nice views, and good area for walking.

Food was amazing. Staff were friendly and efficient. Overall a lovely afternoon. Thank you. Recommend the chicken chorizo meal, was delicious. Nice and warm inside.

New owners were very friendly, but the pub had little atmosphere as there were only a few tables occupied on a Saturday night. Pub decor is “traditional” but tired and dated. Food was okay apart from the chickpea curry which was inedible: large chunks of hard veg in a yellow cream sauce that bore no resemblance to curry. Won’t be returning as there are so many other amazing places to eat in the local area. Sorry, I can’t recommend, and I suspect it won’t last long without major changes.

Very good food, service was please and welcoming. Good portions for the price and good selection of beers. First time we have gone but would go again

Lovely Sunday roast and fab service! Beef was lovely and tender and home made yorkie puds! Thank you - we will be back soon for more!

The Ford Inn serves a good variety of traditional pub food with friendly, yet unobtrusive service. On my visit today there was a real mix of diners. Couples, families, birthday celebrations and groups of friends all of which added to a pleasant atmosphere.

Lovely pub, tasty Sunday lunch which was well worth the price. Service very good and nice atmosphere. So good we have booked in for next week.

Good food and friendly service. Had I realised the main course portion was going to be so large I would have chosen a small option to leave room for dessert. But the mains certainly gave both quantity and quality for the money.

Wonderful warm welcome when we arrived, lovely friendly couple. Not nearly as busy as last time we were there, but these are new owners & had only been in approx. 4 weeks. We were a party of 4 & the meal was ok, I had the turkey Xmas dinner which was very nice, but sorry, can not do al dente Brussel sprouts... & the Yorkshire puds were a bit soggy. we had ordered a bottle of wine, which they seem to have forgotten, had to remind them, so had already started our meal by the time it arrived. I think once they get settled & more people book meals, the service should get better, it needs too, as we could only count 3 other couples eating the whole time we were there.

Lovely food all freshly cooked. Good hospitality. New owners finding their feet and putting a great deal of effort into getting things right. The pub is lovely with lots of seating options but what is so good is that you are not on top of one another and can hear yourselves speaking.

Easily the best restaurant we have been to in many years, good food, good service, a nice relaxed eating area and very reasonable priced, but beware the portions are quite large. We will definitely be going back.

Lovely traditional pub, large and uncrowded. Seemed a little short staffed but noticed they were quietly training someone the same afternoon. Food was good (although Yorkshire puddings need practice as they were a little small). Friendly staff, will go again.

Excellent Sunday lunch with good portion sizes. Service was professional but not obtrusive. Too full for dessert of which there were only 4 options to choose from

Really nice local pub, food and service was good. Will return for a meal again, shame they don’t do a weekly meal deal like a steak night

Nice warm welcome and food was good but it was spoilt by staff shortages and long waits and desert at all available. It was suppose to be a birthday celebration and we left feeling a little deflated.

Good food, friendly staff and a nice setting. Short distance from the village of Holmfirth heading towards Saddleworth moor. Good place for walking before enjoying a nice lunch.

Beautiful location serving lovely food. The ability to choose a smaller portion for a lighter meal is great. Very friendly welcome on a blustery day

Always good hot and tasty food plus excellent service. Would recommend to anyone. Sunday roast dinner is a must. Friendly hosts and great service. Not had a bad meal yet.

A very friendly greeting met us when we walked into the Ford Inn. The landlord making us feel most welcome. The food was excellent our only complaint being that we couldn't manage it all due to the portion sizes. Having had a starter which was a meal in itself we found that we were unable to do justice to the main course and unfortunately not able to manage a dessert.

Good value food and very friendly service. Dessert menu limited to puddings or ice cream; could benefit from a couple if lighter choices. But overall very good.

A bit out of the way but once we got there a very lovely setting peaceful the meal was very nice and the helpings were just perfect

Chose the Ford in because of on line recommendations and we weren't disappointed . The food was excellent and plentiful ( a little too much in one case), and although mine host was rushed off his feet the service and welcome was faultless. Price wise, we ordered 6 mains and drinks and it came to just over£80.00. Not too bad, I've paid more for worse. All in all an enjoyable reunion at the Ford in and we're planning our next one there!

Food was excellent, generous portions and very tasty. Ale was spot on. Friendly service. And price was good too. Would definitely recommend and go again.

Friendly staff, lovely meals served quite quickly, nice decoration. Just menu on the website should be updated - not the same meals at pub. Recommended to friends.

Lovely place lovely food, staff really friendly. Sunday dinners well worth the drive out for. Good choice on the menu, toilets clean, sometimes the can let a nice place down. Looking forward to going back.

This was our first visit and it was great. Staff were helpful and friendly, food was excellent and some gorgeous views from our table. We will definitely be visiting again

Very nice; excellent food and service together with good atmosphere. We have visited this establishment on numerous occasions and never been less than delighted with the overall experience. Would strongly recommend this pub/restaurant.

Staff very welcoming and a nice setting, alas the Sunday lunch was below par, meat too thick you needed a steak knife, gravy etc not home made, won't be going again

Good food, fast friendly service Good selection of beers.All food well presented and locally sourced. I will certainly recommend the Ford Inn to friends and family.

Service was good,, lovely food and the servings were more than ample, and made very welcome.. Will definitely be going back again in the not too distant future

The Ford Inn is a lovely pub and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was absolutley delicious. We will definetly be back.

A lovely meal. The place was busy but the landlord and lady were working extremely hard and kept everything ticking over nicely. We felt well looked after and really appreciated their good humour. A great evening.

Lovely location, friendly and attentive service and delicious food too. Booked on line, which was easy to use and reliable. A good selection of beer. Would recommend this Inn.

Always good food and warm welcome at the Ford Inn. This is our 'local' and the first choice for family nights out. Would recommend this pub to everyone.

The staff were friendly, the service goodas was the food. The menu was interesting offering a variety of predominantly British dishes. The proportions were generous and the quality was very good.

Excellent food and service. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal at The Ford Inn. The atmosphere in the pub was really good, it is obviously a popular place to eat.

Excellent service, excellent food and drink. Greeted by the landlord who was aware of our reservation. Waitress was efficient and knowledgable about the food. Food was served quickly and portions were of a generous size. Overall a most enjoyable experience.

Fantastic food, fantastic staff. Could not fault the service at all. Great meal for two in a relaxed environment, we will definitely be visiting again very soon!

Food as always spot on. This is our favourite place to eat. It's so cosy and welcoming .. a real treat! Surroundings are beautiful as well .. close to Wrigley so good to take a walk before or after your meal

Great service & huge pieces of beef. I highly reccomend the sticky toffee pudding, but ask for it 'as the Queen has it' & with a side helping of custard!

Nice little pub great location in rural holmfirth Good Food friendly great atmosphere well recommended for the sunday roast and black sheep ale Enjoyed my visit

Always a good meal here, a warm wecome with friendly service. Always excellent food and a good choice of beer and always something to try out. Lovely location

We visited on 14 September and all had game pie which was lovely. It was a nice friendly place and the landlord was very pleasant.
