On a damp November Friday we expected oven ready meals. We got cooked from fresh schnitzel, hand cut chips and homemade coleslaw. The chef definitely likes wholesome food and the quantities were great. It was really quiet and they let us camp in the car park as long a we ate in the pub.

We had the absolute pleasure of staying and dining with Wolfgang and Helen at The Buck Inn on our Coast to Coast hike. From the moment Wolfgang picked us up at the end of a hard days hiking we knew we were in for a treat. This man knows hospitality and was made to be in the people business. Warm, welcoming, funny, with great conversation and to top it all off a great pub with great beer and an exceptional European influenced menu prepared by Wolfgang. We had an awesome experience and an AMAZING MEAL! Hands down the best Schnitzel I have EVER eaten! The rooms were clean and tidy with a great bed. Breaky was served with a smile and great enthusiasm by Wolfgang. I loved this place and Wolfgang made this a special experience and one of our favourite stops overall during our Coast to Coast hike. Thank you Wolfgang and Helen for the hospitality and the memories!…

Fantastic little North York Moors inn. The welcome is warm and friendly. The bar meals are a delight - Wolfgang is an amazing chef. Well worth beating a path to their door for supper. Kevin & Sandra Baugh

What a surprise - incredible food, amazing beer and the friendliest welcome after a long day's walk. And little oasis in the middle of the moors and the perfect night's stay. Thank you for your kindness to our family - we would love to come back!

Amazing welcome and the food was outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble. We stayed here whilst walking C2C, it's slightly off route but we were collected by Wolfgang in the evening and dropped back in the morning to continue where we left off. Thank you.

Just been for Sunday lunch. Exquisite as always. They’re the best of the best!! The staff consisting of chef extraordinaire wolfgang, and Paul and Cath ALL go above and beyond to make sure your visit is as comfortable as possible. Dog friendly makes the outing so much easier. Cath thanks for the trifle!! AND The patience 🙄 Couldn’t find a better place to eat in. Worth booking a break to stay because of location. Friendly helpful staff. Wolfgang… thanks for your UNBEATABLE sunday roasts.

Me and my friends booked this place to camp at for our coast to coast walk. What a great decision that turned out to be. The German beer is 👌. Dinner and breakfast was also great. Good quality ingredients that made up a couple hearty meals. Wolfgang, Helen and Catherine are all a delight and the pub has a friendly, local atmosphere. You feel instantly welcomed and don't think I've had better hospitality. Would recommend to anyone attempting the coast to coast walk or if you fancy an evening in Chop Gate.

Visited with friends and family for lunch and certainly will not be back. The biggest issue was the unwelcome nature of the guy behind the bar/taking food orders. No welcome, no "how was your food", no asking if we needed anything, just a downright poor performance overall. Food wise, it was average, some of our sparkly drinks were flat. Overall, over-priced, uncomfortable and unimpressed with the service and attitude of the person who was taking orders. Won't be back anytime soon, this place just gave the wrong vibes...

Called on Sunday for a meal early evening to be told that they were only serving residents!! What type of PUBLIC house is this??!! The 'beer garden' is on the paved driveway to the back entrance! The 'garden' is gated off.

The Buck Inn is a fusion of British and German influences. It was the first time I've seen a Barnsley Lamb chop sharing the menu with maultaschen (a type of ravioli). The room was very comfortable, the food was delicious and the portions generous. Wolfgang and the team run a superb, relaxing establishment. If you're on the Coast to Coast walk the pick up and drop off at Clay Bank Top is a bonus.
