The Old Black Swan

Ignore previous reviews based on previous owners. We visit this pub regularly when in Bedale. Never had such an awful experience in a pub in my life. 3 large dogs roaming around off the lead. 2 Staffies and a German Shepherd. A drunk chav in charge apparently. A lady behind the bar who CANNOT pull a pint of ale. I don’t need to go on. A waste of money and upsetting to see a good pub run in the ground especially after the tough time this industry has faced. Zero effort put into this pub and looks like it’s just being used as a chav drop in centre drunk mates free for all. AWFUL. Spend your money elsewhere on the high street and leave them to it.

A warm and friendly pub with a great atmosphere. Popped in at lunchtime for a drink and got the last free table. This place was busy, table service in place due to covid, but got served straight away A couple of real ales on tap, but with a great selection of all drinks. Would definitely return here, but would book in advance so we could try their food

Saw this pub during a wander around Bedale, great location on the market square. Went in for a drink that evening, more of a restaurant than a pub, but friendly staff and decent selection of beers.

Just had drinks so can't comment on food. Good selection of drinks. Multiple TV's and happy to show multiple games which is useful.
