What a fantastic family run pub. Delicious food and great beer. The staff were all very friendly and the pub had a great atmosphere. I can highly recommend the pork belly.
We had the pleasure of staying for the night. The room was spacious, clean and had everything you required. The bed was so comfortable I had the best nights sleep.
Thank you Jill, Phil and the team. We will definitely be back
What a lovely pub! Fantastic beers and lovely staff. The food looked great and tasted even better - I recommend the Spanish chicken! Very friendly and great atmosphere.
Just arrived home after our amazing stay at the Black Swan. The staff were absolutely brilliant, really warm and welcoming and had a great sense of humour.
The rooms were lovely and spotlessly clean.
We enjoyed a sunny afternoon in the beer garden and a fabulous meal in their restaurant.
Highly recommend a visit.
Had a lovely meal for two. The menu and food were excellent, with a good range of options done very well. And our dog was made welcome too 😊. Big thank you to the ladies serving who were professional and friendly.
Need to shout out to the top real ales. Nom.
We stayed two nights & had a great time. Great food & fantastic rooms. All new & smart bar area. Jill is very friendly & staff couldn’t be more friendly & helpful. I would have no problem recommending the black swan at all
Booked for a meal on a Saturday night and despite it being extremely busy staff were very prompt, friendly and attentive. Liked the quirky decor and atmosphere.
We both had pies and they were very tasty also selection of few different beers brewed on site was bonus! 🍺 will be visiting again.
Excellent Hotel, we stayed for a weekend break, the room was first class, as were the fixtures and fittings
The staff and owners were warm and welcoming nothing was too much trouble.
The breakfasts were excellent as was the evening meal which we had on the day of our arrival.
There was also excellent secure parking at the rear of the hotel.
We would definitely recommend this hotel.

We didn't stay in the hotel here but had an amazing meal here. The halloumi burger that I had was delicious. In the centre of town too. Would definitely come here again!
Absolutely amazing Sunday lunch, beef was the best I'd ever had. Staff extremely attentive but without being intrusive and very friendly. Added bonus was its dog friendly.
Our room was lovely, spotless .modern understated decor ,comfy bed& pillows, nice shower room , complimentary shower gel , shampoo, conditioner and moisturising lotion had a mini bar but also a great selection of drinks free of charge , lovely big cups and glasses ,not those 2 sips and it's gone type ,
Bar food was very nice.
Out door seating area was brilliant, with heaters ,and sheltered .
It's an old inn so obviously stairs and steps , nooks and crannies , room had adjustable heating .
We had a lovely stay, the staff were excellent.
And breakfast delicious.
Will stay again in a heartbeat
Lovely building, good host...didn't get full experience as we'd missed the fact that pub was closed and no food service in jan/Feb on the day we stayed, so no place to unwind after a days walking , only the bedroom.
Just come back from our third stay in "The Black Swan" in Pickering.
Cannot wait to go back again.
We stay in pub, hotels etc on a regular basis, this is one of the best we stay in. Yes I have read the bad reviews, goodness me some people really need to travel/get out more.
Rooms spotless, warm and cosy, (even the spooky one, lol)
The staff and owners cant do enough to make your stay pleasurable.
If you have any life changing problems like your beans at breakfast not to your liking, say so, I guarantee it will be sorted.
Cannot praise enough.
Go for a visit, you'll have a lovely time.
MERRY CHRISTMAS. Xxxx
