Welcome to our vibrant venue located in the charming market town of Skipton! With a generous capacity of 720, we are the perfect spot for everything from casual lunches and light drinks to lively Saturday night parties featuring a DJ.

Situated on the bustling high street, our venue is easily accessible, with the nearest car park just a 3-minute walk away (High Street Short Stay). On Saturday evenings, we transform the main bar area by clearing some tables to create a dancefloor, enhancing the festive atmosphere.

Filled with natural daylight, our space includes various cozy nooks for quieter conversations, as well as an inviting outdoor terrace. This venue is ideal for any occasion (please note: no stag or hen parties), and with breakout areas and a dedicated function room, the potential for memorable events is limitless.

Book your next gathering with us and experience the best of Skipton!

Private Room Hire - Function Room Private Room 100 190 - - -

Step into our impressive Function Room, designed to host up to 190 guests! This spacious venue features its own private bar, a vibrant dance floor complete with a disco ball and effect lighting, as well as a stage for live entertainment. With its separate street entrance and private restrooms, your guests will enjoy both convenience and privacy.

Please note that the Function Room is located upstairs and unfortunately lacks disabled access. We recommend bookings for 50 or more guests to ensure a lively atmosphere, as the size of the room would feel too spacious for smaller gatherings.

Ideal for wedding receptions, birthdays, business lunches, and conferences, this versatile space allows you to personalize the décor to make it truly your own. Guests are welcome to bring their own DJ or hire one from our venue.
