This is one of the top 10 oldest pubs in the UK. A Greenie King owned and operated, the Ales were of excellent quality and good condition. The minimal staff were under a lot of pressure on the day of my visit (Sunday) but they were still friendly, helpful and served with a smile, even though they al
The food here was delicious. We didn’t have a reservation but they still managed to squeeze us in inside. The service was a little on the slow side but it was quite busy. Dessert options were also incredible. Highly recommend.
Very nice old pub, May be built in the year 1000. With large car park. Plenty of room inside and many tables and benches outside. Sit in the beautiful village of Holywell, by the river.
Had a great lunch on a Monday! Even did a bit of fly fishing and caught a fish as long as my arm? Just up the road is the Holywell church and you can even see the Holywell in the church yard.
Quaint character pub, great pub grub and amazingly helpful staff, well done all. Had an overnight stay here, top marks to staff member Sam a credit to the company
I adore this beautiful pub. I just went on my own hoping for a relaxed soft drink alone by the river and a walk - and it delivered perfectly. Nice down-to-Earth welcoming staff, comfortable, clean outdoor furniture to sit on, perfect peace and quiet. Highly recommended.
Been a few years since I was last at this lovely old pub and wasn't disappointed. The three of us were treated to some excellent dishes . My starter of the beetroot ravioli was ace , the Steak and Ale pie was tasty but the star of the show for me was the chocolate brownie with ice cream absolutely s
A must visit for anyone looking for a good classic pub serving hearty pub-grub meals, a really beautiful location next to the river.
You can choose to sit indoors or out, both offering plenty of space and seating. The interior is absolutely fantastic, a really authentic old English pub, this alone
Really nice pub on the river Bank. Stopped here during a cycling trip and had a really nice lunch. If it was close to where I live I'd go there all the time.
If someone said describe a British country pub this is it 😁
I live in Holywell, St Ives. The Old Ferryboat Inn is one of the oldest pubs in England, if not the oldest, and has been there for nearly 1000 years. It’s in a beautiful setting by the river but had been neglected over recent years. But all that has changed since the new landlady Claire took over. T
This is one of the best local pubs that I have been to in a very long time. The staff were exceptional, especially this great lad called jack. Very helpful for recommending food when I was struggling to pick what I wanted to eat. The food did not disappoint me in the slightest. I had the Crispy chic
Great atmosphere...snug pub! Food is good and staff are friendly and helpful. And you can take your well behaved fur babies. Rooms are clean and a comfy bed too! A couple more sachets of coffee, sugar and milk would be great 👍
Beautiful Inn, steeped in history, stunning location. Just visited for lunch and were warmly welcomed by Claire and her team. The service was pretty quick, considering there were only 2 people behind the bar, who were also serving meals. Our meals were delicious, fresh and piping hot. We will defini
Today had lunch at this very pleasant pub. Food was excellent and staff really friendly. I chose the spicy chicken in a basket. It was delicious. Because we waited a little longer for our meal we were offered free desserts. Shall certainly be returning.
A lovely old pub located next to the river Ouse. Lots of character and atmosphere. Really good beer and the food is good, tasty pub grub. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. My only criticism is that it took a bit of time before our food order was taken but after that, the service was prompt
