  • Now, I don't consider myself a soap watcher but when in Yorkshire, I thought it was only right to check out the famous Emmerdale pub in Esholt. Can you believe it was used in the set between 1976-1998? An incredible bit of history!

      I used to be that person until I read a review were a poster left negative feedback and the café responded and asked why didn't you mention this while you were in the shop ?
      I thought this to be a perfectly fair comment so when asked now I say something along the lines of very nice thank you but the chips not to my liking , gives them chance to respond in person.

    • @GaryEats

    Gorgeous. The cob of corn is grown next to the tea plantation on Ilkley Moor, the famous supplier for Yorkshire Gold.

    I really appreciate the fact that you gave separate marks for location, staffing and food quality in this review. From the beginning, it was clear that you were besotted with the pub, so I was bracing myself for an overly high overall score.
    I think 7/10 is more than fair for what you were served - especially given that the ribs were slow-cooked in advance and being kept warm (or cold) and heated up, which isn't exactly 'cooked to order'.

    • @GaryEats
      @GaryEats  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Indeed Sam. As I've replied previously, scoring is more reflective of food rather than everything else.

    A very fair and balanced review. Have enjoyed many holidays in North Yorkshire over the past 50 years and there are some great pubs to eat in. One of my favourites is The Boardwalk at Lealholm which is about 20 minutes from Whitby. Might need to book that one as it gets very busy on a Sunday for Sunday Dinner.

    The pub used to be called The Commercial before it decided to change its name due to the TV series. The sign showing the Woolpack used to be kept round the back of the pub in readiness for filming days. The food was always very good and well worth a lunchtime visit.

    I'm not in any way a soap fan, although I did know about the Woolpack in Emmerdale. What I didn't know was that it was a real pub! I always thought it was just a set, but here you are, in the Woolpack, tucking into BBQ ribs. So I learned something new today.
    As for the food, I don't particularly like corn on the cob and probably would have asked for it to be changed. But to what... chips? I don't think so, those things looked dodgy from the off. While the ribs were excellent, for me, those chips would've spoilt everything. I'm not sure I'd be given it a 7, although I do understand why you did.
    Great video, I like your way of reviewing these eating establishments, keep up the good work! 👏

A bit embarrassed to learn the pub you went to was closer to Bradford than York. (I worked in the ‘90’s for the US branch of company based there). BTW the ribs looked delicious.

    Never been in to soaps tho Emmerdate was one of my mam's favorites - not sure if she went there when on a holiday in Yorks many moons ago but she did visit the early Harry Ramsden's and was none too complimentary about it. Your comment about the pub not being a 'tourist trap' surprised me since that is really it's attraction and I guess that prices really do reflect that - seems a tad expensive to me. But, again, a really good review.

    To be fair to the pub, there have been a lot of potatoes recently that seem to have a very high starch content that burns and makes the chips go dark brown before they are properly cooked. I suspect that’s what happened here (it certainly looks like it) which is why they cut them small, in an effort to get them to cook. We have been having potato troubles for a while now. Ribs looked good. My wife’s favourite except that we have to put her through a car wash afterwards

    Good evening Mr Gary, hope you are doing well. Congratulations on how fast this channel has grown!. Up until now, we've had a nice little community here. The bigger a channel gets the more people tune in and the bigger the audience becomes! Unfortunately, the downside of that means now the trolls will start coming, and there's not much you can do about it, but there are certain steps you can take to reduce the nonsense. First is by setting your channel to hold inappropriate comments. Another is by deleting comments manually that still managed to get through even though they were reviewed by CZcams. And lastly, never reply back to anyone who is being abusive. They will target anyone and everyone including you! They might say something completely unnecessary just to trigger you, and pull you into their BS. It could be something as little as commenting on your clothes or hairstyle which isn't true, but they want you to respond because then they think they got you! Anyway, good luck with everything and I know you'll do well because you're a very likeable man!👍💯🌟

    Sometimes you gotta take the excellent with the not so great. One summer we visited several monasteries in Bavaria with the reputation for excellent in house beer brewing. I had some good or excellent meals and also some not so great meals, but experiencing really nice old monasteries with some excellent beer made on location - I would definitely eat at those places again! Same with this pub. You can just go for a beer, but eating there and hanging out a while longer is worth some okay chips ever so often. It is all about priorities.

    Been there twice, Gary, I was not too impressed with the food. In my database it has a 6 out of 10. The ingredients are top notch, but the last time we went there, everything was over cooked. Had to send my steak back as it was medium to well done and I ordered it rare. But the service and the beer was very good, they had proper strong lager. But for me personally it was disappointing, it felt like a tourist trap through and through. But another fantastic honest review, mate, loved it. Speak to you soon and you've got mail. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend.😊

      Seems you had a very similar experience to me Frank. It was good quality but lacking in some areas. The chips were soggy as well which was a shame. Sorry to hear about your steak but I can imagine in the summer, it's a great place to visit. Enjoy your weekend mate!

    Glad overall you enjoyed your time at the Woolpack. I have a great recipe i use for bbq sauce, which i find is especially good with chicken. A fair whack of roughly equal quantities of brown sugar and cider vinegar, a big splodge of ketchup, a teaspoon of English mustard powder, the same of paprika (ideally smoky), a quarter teaspoon each of dried oregano, garlic powder and onion powder. Give it a good stir, it's great just raw, or heated up.

    Gary, still bingeing all videos since discovering your channel. I’m loving it. So don’t they still use this pub to film Emmerdale now then?
    Looking forward to even more content from you. Have you heard of Mercato? It’s a company that does food halls in London with various cuisines. I have the one in Mayfair on my list which is set in a church. It looks so beautiful. Would love to see more Italian restaurant reviews from you also. Keep the amazing work coming Gary; we love you 😊

    What an incredible pub! Looks amazing. As for the food; the ribs looked great. The chips were awful, almost as dark as the ribs, so unappetizing. I always thought that grated carrots were a part of any coleslaw recipe. The corn on the cob looked good too. Must say that I had imagined a bigger portion of ribs for that price. However, I think it is definitely worth a visit. Love the pub itself. Your saying : Yeah, absolutely brilliant to the waiter reminded me of a hilarious part of Peter Kay's comedy😂Thanks so much Gary for showing us this pub and as usual, a fantastic review.

    Loved to have joined you. I love barbecued ribs. That looks like perfect coleslaw. So many places drown the cabbage and onions with far too much mayonnaise. The chips? Forgivable considering the rest of the meal looked great. I much prefer a lager of an ale. But, that’s me.

    Hello Gary, being an old timer i remember when it was called Emmerdale Farm, And the hub was in Annie's kitchen ( seemed they had 6 meals a day + snacks😅) Amos,Mr Wilkes ran the boozer. No racks of ribs,corn 🌽 on the cob then 😮 Funnily enough Gary, i thought that the chips were some of the best looking I've seen for a long time.😊Now i have a problem with ribs.In a B.B.Q restaurant, with in house smoker& grill pit it is a brilliant way to cook.However in the standard kitchen, the cooking time would be a draw back,especially with large numbers.So i would say,my opinion only. Frozen or pre- cooked and chilled. And honestly i don't mind that a bit.Over the years since Bob Payton opened Chicago Ribs back in the 1980's I've spent more time on racks than a Medieval Villain 😢 Another fine location,well shot and for fans a must visit 😊 A very good menu,and equally very fair prices. A real destination eaterie. Safe journeys both Allan&Family

    Hey Gaz, nosh looks nice there ! A few years ago I went to the actual outdoor set , in the middle of nowhere to install a new coffee machine in the green room. I don't watch Emmerdale so didn't recognise any of the actors, my missus used to watch it avidly and even she said she doesn't recognise any of the actors, probably cast changing over the years. The only actor we did recognise was Reese Dinsdale, he was lovely and chatted with us for about 10 minutes, he said he hadn't long joined the soap as a writer, director and actor. You may remember him from Home To Roost back in the 80s, he played John Thaw's son. Anyhoo, slightly off topic there , that food looks fab !! Another fab review, cheers, Daz, Leicester.

Chips didn’t look great - but better than some on your other visits - possibly needed a couple of minutes more in hotter, fresher oil? Ribs looked lovely, very well cooked. Coleslaw - looked fantastic and so fresh. Very fair review again, Gary. Keep up the good work!

    Good evening Gary 👍a beautiful country pub setting, you're right about those chips I thought they looked overcooked frankly, the corn on the cob should of had 'corn forks in each end and whilst the ribs appeared well cooked I thought if you're going to eat half the meal with fingers as people generally do with ribs then a finger bowl and napkins should have come with the meal,but that's just me. I thought it looked an average plate at a reasonable cost but I enjoyed the video, cheers✌️🍻

    Never been an Emmerdale viewer, think I'd be more excited by a trip to the Queen Vic or The Rovers Return but The Woolpack looks very cosy.

    Good God, you're in a place I've actually been to! Around 1993 I beleive it was, I still have the Emmerdale Coffee mug, I bought in the little post office across the road from their, is that still there? I beleive I had Chicken & chips with a few pints of their real ale, the menu wasn't so extensive back then! Your visit though, those chips did look manky, I know it's not your way, but I think they would of changed them, if you had asked! Nice to see a full ear of corn, rather than those diced little lumps they give you elsewhere (Beefeater are you looking?) £21.50 was a bit rich for such a small rack of ribs (width wise) but in an iconic place such as that, you pay for the ambience I suppose! Brought back some happy working memories, thanks Gary! See you in the next one... Oh! Just remembered it was originally called the Falcon, but eventually changed to the Woolpack permantly to save changing backwards and forwards when filming, a delighted barman told me...!
