I’ve been here a few times in the past without having any real difficulty.I discovered that having been closed for renovation it has reopened and is now a pub carvery . I called in at lunchtime for a carvery and to see what changes had taken place. To gain access there is only one entrance and exit from the village or from the roundabout on the ring road .The Disabled parking bays are in front of you ,but they are not well marked .There are 3/4 bays and unfortunately not really the correct size for someone to exit but with a wheelchair it would be difficult..I unloaded from the rear into the driveway and then had to find a dropped kerb .I had to travel on the car park to the main door..It’s not possible to unload onto the pavement as there are tables and chairs along it. I noticed that there is a smoking shelter to the right and access to that is via the games room . The main doors open inwards but you have to push them as they are manually operating.The entrance is flat and level . Inside the premises I had no problems getting around but I did notice that the bar converted to carvery would be a problem with it’s roped off walkway to make orderly queues which I was unable to use . Another problem I encountered was with the tables .As you look to the right there is a raised platform and large fireplace .There are steps up to the platform so is not wheelchair Accessible. I also had to change tables as I couldn’t fit my chair under it.After getting another table with a large central leg .This was difficult but useable. Maybe a look at suitable tables needed here!! I had my meal delivered to me and I have no complaints about that. The carvery was hot and the plate loaded, properly cooked and the service was good . I was unable to check on the toilet facilities as the evening crowd began arriving and I was unable to get past without causing problems. The wacky warehouse does have a separate entrance as well as a corridor from the main building.No comment on that facility. The car park itself is of a decent size . I will have to revisit at a quieter time to conclude my photos and post .Revisited 7/6/19 .It was quieter and the weather foul . Access to disabled toilets and some tables will still be difficult as the roped off area in front of the carvery blocks access when being used . Today I was lucky see photo.I managed to get into the disabled toilet in my wheelchair and the baby changer was fastened up !! However you can’t turn around in a wheelchair and I had to reverse back out!! PS the carvery was great
Good selection of food on the menu pleasant staff. The food came hot and fresh cooked and very generous portions the food was well cooked and we'll presented. I'm sure the puddings are just as good but I didn't have room left to try one. All in all a good place to eat and inexpensive also has a great play area for the kids. I would recommend this place for a stop and fill up great
Fantastic service from our server, Ryan. Beautiful food the best carvery we’ve ever had. Nice refurbishment too
Friendly staff and reasonably priced. The steak pizza I bought was enormous, actually cooked to my liking and for the money was fair enough. But in terms of the meat, it was definitely quantity over quality. Very, very gristly.
Tasty food, good portion sizes and friendly staff overall good place to eat
Nice family pub on the edge of Burley and Ilkley on the corner of the main road. Accessible, clean, spacious, lots of parking, beautiful building. Interior is nice. Staff are lovely. Food went back twice. Steak was Dreadful and went back. Burger was wrong and went back. Staff were lovely about it hence the two stars. If you are a not fussy turkey twizzle type person then eat here. Otherwise I'd be careful.
Ridiculously generous amazing food and a decent price. I will be back
Family night out with good food. I had the Carvery which I really enjoyed.
After visiting a different restaurant For a birthday celebration to be left very disheartened by the level of customer service it was absolutely amazing how generous pioneer took us with open arms and made us feel welcome the level of service was outstanding all procedures were in place and been adhered to. A young lad called Ed was super helpful and very attentive absolute credit to the restaurant And the team. We then received our food and as some of us ordered carvery and some ordered from the menu it was very well thought out so we all could eat together. The food was impeccable the carvery was fresh and looked fresh very tasty, the steak was on point and was delicious well done to the chef and kitchen team. What could of been a rubbish birthday meal turned out for the better and was very pleased with the food, service and hospitality of everyone Well done to all of you highly recommend eating here. Well done to
As we were/are regular diners, we were so happy when the doors opened yesterday. As usual, standards were high in every aspect of the pub. Staff friendly, polite and well presented. Tables cleaned immediately after table vacated. Social distancing fabulous and the bar area exceptionally clean and well presented. The food, as usual was fantastic! The staff never stopped. Credit to the manager Erin who made it look like they had never been closed. No panicking, just excellent service.
