This pub was recommended to us at the beginning of our holiday at Cayton Bay Holiday Park, but we decided to leave it until this evening to visit as we are going home tomorrow. This pub is literally across the road, and on some evenings, you can hear the outside live entertainment. I had read the previous reviews and felt it was a bit of a hit or miss. I didn't allow it to put me off and felt I needed to visit and judge for myself. I am SO GLAD I DID. The Tow Bar was extremely busy, which tells me instantly how good it must be. The pub was warm, welcoming and the staff friendly. We managed to find an available table, which was next to the disabled toilet, which I did not see beforehand, or I wouldn't have chosen to sit there. The menu has a limited selection, but there is lots to choose from, if you get what I mean. The prices are, on average, a bit more than what I would spend, but on receiving our meals, it was more than plentiful. I did choose to have extras such as the gorgeous homemade onion rings and coleslaw. The queue was long (people were served quickly) when ordering our meals and drinks, and I was surprised as to how quickly our food was delivered to us. Our meals were beautiful, and we were incredibly impressed with it all, including the service from the bar staff and the young man who delivered our meals. There is an outdoor hut called called 'The Hitch' that offers waffles, ice cream, and milkshakes. I did see a member of staff go out of her way to accommodate a little boys request of a milkshake because it had closed, which I thought was so kind of her. This is a lovely and lively, friendly family pub and I would highly reccomended you to visit. I have attached photographs of the menu because it was something I couldn't find on the reviews, which I would have liked to have seen beforehand 😊

Great dog friendly pub , with great outdoor seating , and a dog area inside . Prices were relatively ok, and menu looked interesting. One minor niggle is the “Handmade Pizzas”( using a fired pizza oven ). The pizza ordered arrived in a badly presented way - the maker obviously was in a rush , and pizza was not circular as one would expect , but some strange non-uniform creation ( thus leaving lots of pizza dough uncovered by sauce and topping ), and aesthetically displeasing . Tasted great , but price did not justify the toppings. Apart from that , everything else was fine .

Fantastic food, can tell the chef actually cares. Had the burger with blue cheese, and they don't shirk on the quantity, something chain restaurants could learn from. Chips were great too, Gammon looked really good. Guinness was flowing and only stopped due to a train to a catch. Would definitely recommend a bit of food and few drinks to pass the time in a beautiful location.

We stopped in the caravan park across the road which was very handy for 3 nights. And visited the Tow Bar every day and night The atmosphere was brilliant as were the staff We had food on the first day which was very good and on Sunday we had the carvery. We had a selection of 4 meats which was great, but the Yorkshire puddings were hard and the cauliflower was under cooked The place was quiet busy and has a good selection of beers and also has a lot of tv's with various sport on. The beer garden is great and dog friendly Would recommend this pub

Great 👍 Pub 🍻. Just fancied some Scampi and Chips. Not eaten any for Years now. The Spuds were excellent 👌. You can tell that they have used a good quality Spud for the Chips. Scampi was delicious 😋. Other half had a Burger 🍔 and Chips and he enjoyed his meal. Drinks also went down well. And it's Dog friendly in the Areas that Dogs are allowed in. Staff were brilliant. Had a Laugh 😂 hearing lads in kitchen cooking. Which was funny for us. We love a good laugh. And our little Dog Archie enjoyed his free Biscuit from the Bar 🍻. One young lad said if there's anything you need just ask. Well I need a diploma to open them sachets of Tartar Sauces with 😂😂😂. Would highly recommend this Pub for Grub....

Lovely grub! Ordered between 8 of us a selection off the menu, including burger / BBQ ribs, halloumi fries, pasta, sausages, onion rings and much more! The food was cooked to perfection, chips are beautiful! the service was 5 star, very quick and polite. We will definitely be returning and recommend!

Absolutely lush breakfast. I’m not sure ‘small’ is a correct description of this breakfast haha! Even made little plates for the kids. Great that you can have a pint while the kids play in the park. Plus areas for the dog too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
