Just went for midday meal. Very nice. Had fish and chips, (going for something different there!!!) And it was delicious. They have small and large. The small was more than acceptable in size, any bigger and it will be reeled in from sea! Large open seating area, so not feel overwhelmed. Went Wednesday lunchtime, very quiet.

Very nice. We dropped in for lunch and a long cold drink following a lovely hike. Excellent battered fish that was probably the best I have eaten for some considerable time. Happy to recommend.

Really nice pub/restaurant/hotel. Great drinks selection and good food. Lovely spacious beer garden, and once again dog friendly, both bar and rooms. Would recommend

We were looking for somewhere to stay fairly late in the evening and found this place. The guy at the bar was so helpful in directing us to book the rooms online. The rooms themselves were certainly not cheap but they did feel comfortable and had nice bathrooms. The carpet in my room had signs of wear and tear but isn't as bad as some places I've stayed at. The bar and food service was impeccable. The same guy who helped us book our rooms also served our food. The breakfast was also impressive with a buffet style continental breakfast and a full cooked English. Overall I would stay here again and I am willing to overlook the slightly soiled carpet in the bedroom. Regarding the bedroom I had a room facing the road. At 11pm when I went to bed there was hardly any traffic so noise isn't an issue. Traffic noise only started to appear at 7am and may be later at weekends. If you are arriving here by car there is a car park on the other side of the main road which is free to use between 6pm and 9am so you can leave the car there overnight without charge.

We first had some bread and olives to accompany some drinks the first night of our stay in Settle. The beer was excellent but the bread and olives nothing special. We went back on our last night for another well earned drink after a long day of walking and ended up getting hungry. The steak with garlic and chilli butter was superb, tender, perfectly cooked and very tasty. The OH's fish and chips very good too and sizable! Highly recommend.

Beautiful pub, let down by terrible service. We visited yesterday and placed a food order, after forty minutes we enquired how much longer it would be as it wasn’t busy, only to be told that there had been a change of chefs and it hadn’t been done! When it did arrive the waitress told me the plate was extremely hot and then promptly left it to my left so I had to move the plate for it to be in front of me. The veg was cold and had to be replaced. No real apology, they didn’t seem that bothered. I won’t be returning.

Large and spacious pub (old coaching Inn) with large beer garden. Popular eatery with an extensive menu. About 6 real ales on offer. Definitely worth a view.

Walking in from a wet walk in the Dales, the friendly staff quickly get the keys to our room. The room was clean, tidy and well-equipped. We ate in the Lion's Den (because we had our dog with us). The food was good and the staff was friendly. A local folk band played in the bar, with the famous Mike Harding amongst them. The atmosphere was great. The next morning, we had a delicious cooked breakfast. The Golden Lion is a great place to stay in the Yorkshire Dales. There are plenty of walks nearby too.
