The Wild Swan - Minskip

Excellent meal and atmosphere . Staff were very attentive despite the restaurant being busy. We enjoyed the sea bass fillet and risotto, a welcome change from turkey.

Excellent food. Very attentive service. The pub is warm and comfortable and is very good value for money. The staff are lovely and made us feel very welcome. Will definitely eat here again.

good food, friendly service & rustic atmosphere. Rather busy over festive season. We are looking forward to visiting again at a quieter time and eating in the dining room

First time my husband and I have eaten at the Wild Swan. Service was friendly and efficient, despite the fact they were very busy. The food was of high quality and excellent value. The surroundings were comfortable and clean. I would have no reservation in recommending.

Easy booking with email confirmation on day before visit. very reassuring. Friendly welcome. Well placed table for four, nicely avoiding the larger groups celebrating pre Christmas. . First class food, efficient but not intrusive service. Not cheap but good value for money.

First time dining here at the Wild Swan it surpassed our expectations. Wonderful food and excellent service. This has a great buzz. Will be back.

Lovely food had the Christmas lunch good value for money lovely staff very helpful and friendly lovely pub open fire very welcoming really enjoyed it

Food was good but the smell of wet wood from the fire along with the smoke in the dinning room made the experience not as good as it should of been, we all left with our cloths smelling of smoke

Excellent Sunday lunch. We’ve been going to their sister pub at Roecliffe for ages, so thought twe’d give the Wild Swan a try. Really nice roast (we had the beef, pork and chicken between us), and two of our three starters were really good. The only slight complaint was that the ‘classic’ prawn cocktail was not classic. Instead of crisp iceberg or cos Etruscan, it had limp green leaves, nature unspecified. Still, only a small quibble, and we’ll be going back to try the al la carte menu.

A return visit, lovely evening with friends - great food and service, The sea bass special was superb. To be picky - could have included a few more vegetables (we were told there would be plenty with the dish) and waiting/standing space in the bar area is very limited. Good atmosphere, lovely décor, like the open view into the kitchen.

Busy for Monday Lunch, food ok have had better at The Old Swan, attentive on arrival and when food served but felt forgotten about after main course, had to find server to ask for bill.

Lovely Sunday Lunch today. The staff were excellent, very attentive and genuinely concerned that you were having a great experience. We will be going back!

Delicious food and so relaxed … great catch up with a friend and no pressure from the staff to hurry . We will be back … thank you

Looked forward to trying this restaurant as we loved TheCrown at Roecliffe. There was a good choice of food and a comfortable atmosphere in the dining room. The four of us enjoyed our meal which consisted of a main and dessert. We all made good choices,although we had to ask for more sauce to go with the pig cheeks. Desserts were tasty, although pastry brush additions were not! The problem was pointed out to the waiter. We felt a better apology would have been appreciated. Overall a good meal and would go back again.

This is really good pub food and great beer. The pub has a lovely warm atmosphere and the staff are very attentive. We liked the novelty of being able to view the (tiny) kitchen. The decor in the restaurant, but not he bar, which is-normally spot on from the proprietors, is a little thin and uncoordinated without the usual quirky details but these are minor points.

Great visit to the Wild Swan. Lovely welcome - very friendly and helpful staff... and fabulous food, what more could you want. Everything was cooked to perfection, just sorry that we couldn't make room for a pudding - will definitely try to fit one in next time. All in all, a perfect, relaxed Sunday lunch.

Lovely warm atmosphere. Staff were attentive and the food was superb. Great menu choice from local produce. It was nice to see the open kitchen and the chef at work definitely be back.

Very good service. Great atmosphere. Good portion sizes. Went for a family birthday. Long table option is not always my favourite as prefer round, however, ambiance made up for it

Very helpful and friendly and was happy to help if I needed anything for my baby daughter .food is very well presented and tasted lovely will be back again soon .

Great food . We both really enjoyed our selections from the specials menu all reasonably priced and great quality. Service was really friendly and attentive.

Good ambience but lots of things sold out on the menu which was disappointing as we had all wanted scallops for starters and there weren’t any left. Food that we did order was very nice.

Good atmosphere, wide menu range, friendly staff. We had a birthday lunch with lady friends and really enjoyed our experience. I will bring my husband one day.

The food was exactly as described and hot. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a great evening which made our wedding anniversary all the better.

After a lovely Sunday lunch a few weeks ago we decided to meet friends for an early evening meal. Sadly this was not up to the same standard. The portions were smaller (eg mushroom starter which was on soggy bread rather than bruschetta) and the Thai green curry I had was more like pea purée poured over a few bits of overcooked chicken, served with burnt naan. My husband didn’t enjoy his hot pot which was dry and over cooked. Service was ok but rushed and the atmosphere was very smoky! All in all very disappointing and not feeling encouraged to return.

Great food and great service, this was a great birthday meal with the wider family. All those around us looked to be equally enjoying the food and dining experience.

We had an excellent family meal at the Wild Swan. Sunday lunch. The service was excellent, friendly staff, and the food was excellent. We really had no complaints and would certainly recommend it.

All in all it was ok - bar setting is very cosy and lovely especially on a wet miserable day. Starters nice but main course (Sunday roast) was very disappointing.

Had a great time Early Evening menu excellent and great value. Very good modern restaurant with old pub part. Obviously very popular for eating as much of bar takenup by tables so the only down side is as a pub it’s too popular for food so not the usual pub local bar. Overall an excellent place to eat with quality food and friendly staff.

An excellent Sunday lunch wide variety keenly priced and very good service in a lovely comfortable dining room - we will be back! The standard menu looks inviting with varied locally sourced ingredients

We met with family for Sunday lunch which we all found delicious and very generous portions. There was a good choice on the Sunday set menu and we enjoyed the variety of perfectly cooked extra vegetables. The service was excellent. Only small niggle was to be informed after our coffees that we would need to vacate our table as there was a second booking after us - this was not made clear at the time of booking. Nevertheless I highly recommend the quality of food and atmosphere.

Lovely tasty food, really great, friendly service and a really nice pub. Have been for lunches and evening meals and would highly recommend this venue.

Lovely gastro pub, plenty of pleasant and helpful staff. Good food, we had Sunday lunch which was lovely, good choice of vegetables included and real Yorkshire Puddings. Recommended.

Hardly any vegetarian choices, initially seated in front of hot kitchen but were moved when we asked. The food was good but no atmosphere and overpriced

We tried The Wild Swan for the first time having heard good reports from friends etc. We had a very enjoyable meal The food was excellent, the service was friendly and obliging and there is a good ambience in the room., We had a really good meal - will certainly go again.

Could have done better the Sunday lunch roast beef not the best two pieces of roasted sirloin I think a bit chewy not much veg for two adults Yorkshire ‘s a bit shop bought looking and had to ask for sauces and extra gravy as it was all a bit dry. Had to send the Apple and berry crumble back as the plate was untouchable but the desert Luke warm that spells microwave a disappointment for the price paid other local places can and do better.

Fantastic food great service as always we had the early bird menu great value for money will be going back to try it again very soon

Fantastic food and a lovely setting and very polite and helpful staff . Would definitely go again and again in fact we booked a table there and then .

Excellent. Good food, good service. Reasonable prices for what you get. The White Swan is alwyas good, perhaps better than it's sister restaurant the Crown.

As it says on the tin “The Best Sunday Lunch”. Great food.

Wow! We couldn't have been more impressed on our first visit to The Wild Swan by the warm and relaxing atmosphere, fabulous waiting staff and an appealing menu choice to whet the individual and varied appetites of our hungry party of 4. The food was faultless and our dining experience was memorable for all the right reasons. We've since been back for a great Sunday Lunch and The Wild Swan is without doubt our new "go to" restaurant.

Although the food was good and the service friendly, it was less than a great experience. Having repeatedly asked for the wine list we ended up ordering separate glasses of wine in order to get a drink. The wine list eventually turned up during dessert. Having several intolerances and not seeing anything at all marked as gluten free for the main course I was very happy to be told that a roast chicken meal could be served gluten free.The meal arrived complete with Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and gravy. The meal was taken away at my request. The waiter then returned to ask me what I wanted. I said I would be happy with the meat, potatoes and vegetables, a situation I would have been happy with in the first place. My plate came back with the same piece of meat covered in gravy, gravy on the potato and the plate. Anyone who had Coeliac Disease would have become really ill after eating this. For dessert I decided to order a plain vanilla ice cream, thinking nothing could go wrong with that. The regular ice cream covered in all sorts of toppings arrived, so I repeated my request for a plain vanilla ice cream. When my dessert arrived it was covered in raspberries and sauce. Staff obviously need more training, particularly kitchen staff. Although I tolerances are less severe than allergies they can make people very ill.

Very good food , cooked to order in lovely surroundings! Our second visit and will definitely return. I would recommend this restaurant to our friends and others!

Fabulous food as usual, a lovely venue for a family celebration. We have visited the Wild Swan in Minskip for both lunch and dinner and have never been disappointed. Would recommend to all.

Fabulous atmosphere, great service and the food was excellent. a real feeling that this is a professionally run enterprise and the results bear that out.

absolutely great, reminded me of the good times at The Crown (after our las experience there after new owners took over---never again). Food & choice 10/10 staff & service 10/10 Ambience 10/10 If I look for a downside it would be the car park was full so parked in the field (cant imagine how that will be in the winter) & it could do with some form if lighting. Looking forward to our next visit

Lovely gastro pub food in a very pretty village near Wetherby . Choice on menu very extensive and something to suit everyone on our party .

There were five in our party and we all enjoyed our food very much. The only disappointment was they had no Lemon Sole (my favourite) or calamari but it was a Wednesday evening and there were plenty of other delicious choices. We did t have dessert but they looked delicious as they went past!! We’ll definitely be back. Thank you!

Very good value early doors meal which was delicious. Service excellent and the pub is nicely done out. Truffle oil used a bit too freely but that is just a personal preference !

Called in on the way home, excellent service from the staff, very good menu including early bird specials. Our food was well presented and very good. Can the see The Wild Swan overtaking the Crown as the place to eat in the Boroughbridge area

Just brilliant, try it! Everything was perfect, the food, the wine, the service the price. This really was an experience we will all remember, thank you!
