Amazing food

Five of us all had the roast dinner today , between us we tried the 3 options chicken or beef seitan and mushroom wellington . We all thoroughly enjoyed every morsel , they came with lots of veg and a Yorkshire pudding . It was Divine 10/10
We also had the sticky toffee pudding and the meringue and cream pudding which were both delicious . This place is highly recommended we will be back . PS . Make sure you go on the hike around Malham Cove and Janet’s foss to work up an appetite , stunning scenery

Pros: Vegan food lots of it , Staff lovely , Beautiful surroundings

A delightful little stay

We had a lovely time at Beck Hall.
It’s a charming building with lots of character.
The dining room is very nice and the whole place is dog friendly (and the staff seem to love the dogs!)
Our room was pleasant and clean - a few touch ups could be made here and there but overall lovely.
The tea & coffee station had vegan chocolates and you’re also provided with oat milk upon arrival.

We had dinner and breakfast and it was all wonderful - we highly recommend!

Pros: Great food, Dog friendly, Lovely staff

Cons: Room needs a few touch ups

A wonderful way to end a 2 week campervan road trip around Scotland. Finished on a high!

A gorgeous quirky mix of an old character property and modern contemporary design with a nod of fun cheekiness. Ultra dog friendly in all areas with complimentary dog beds to use while in the restaurant. Plenty of outside and inside seating depending on the weather. Professional and friendly service. A great menu with lots of choice for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I stayed the night so we were also able to use the guest only Snug lounge with a crackling log fire and board games. On check in i was given a mini flask of oat milk to take to the room for tea & coffee -that was a great touch. They give you vegan Booja Booja chocolates in the room too! I had lunch, dinner & breakfast. All meals and the hotel stay were fantastic, and the staff lovely. My favourite dishes were the chocolate pot and the breakfast pancakes. Highly recommend. Will be going again one day I'm sure.

Pros: Great food selection , Good Value, Nice atmosphere

Lovely birthday lunch

We just had a lovely lunch at Beck Hall hotel.
Great choice of mains and desserts, I had The Beck Hall burger and the Lemon Chia cheesecake, which were both delicious and decent portion sizes.
We are planning to come back to stay overnight and sample their dinner and breakfast options.

Pros: Great choice, Friendly staff, Beautiful setting with gardens by the stream.

Cons: None

Such good food!!

Stayed overnight & had:
Truffle mushrooms on toast (couldn't taste any truffle though)
Seitan ribs
Sunday roast, seitan chicken
Juicy marbles steak
Sticky toffee pudding
Cheesecake
Full breakfast
Pancakes
And afternoon tea


All was delicious but Sunday roast and afternoon tea were both 10/10 and I'd really recommend! You have to book afternoon tea a day in advance.
Service was quite slow that's my only criticism!

Worth the drive

I discovered Beck Hall just after they went fully vegan. Seeing a business make this positive change made Mr want to visit even more. Today I drove the 2 hour round trip and boy was in worth it. The food choices were exceptional and both myself and my husband had delicious food which didn't include fake meat. Its almost like with a bit of thought, great vegan food doesn't need to be full of highly processed components! I will definitely be returning

Pros: Great food choices, Lovely staff

Can’t wait to come back

We had a beautiful stay at Beck Hall. The rooms weren’t my favourite but let’s be honest, we go for the food. Dinner in particular was amazing - Sunday roast was a proper treat. Sticky toffee pudding and lemon cheesecake also delightful. Breakfast was great with pastries and chia pudding, the only let down was the full breakfast needed a bit more flavour overall. Next time we come we’ll book in for afternoon tea too!

Already planning the return!

Been looking forward to this visit for months and it did not disappoint! Firstly, the hotel itself is in a gorgeous location surrounded by plenty of hiking options. Our room was in the old building full of character. You get handed a flask of oat milk on check in for in-room tea/coffee (it’s replenished daily by housekeeping) and there’s Booja Booja truffles as an accompaniment. Breakfast was fabulous, couldn’t decide what to order from the kitchen menu (the avocado & lox sourdough was ace, esp the little drops of pesto & chilli flakes on the plate). Big fan of the chia pot also. We had dinner one night - we shared the Lebanese caprese and the bread basket; then I had the Thali (very tasty but I couldn’t finish it) and my partner had the fish & chips. For dessert, he had sticky toffee pudding and I had the pomegranate rose meringue. Everything was perfect. We had a few drinks at the bar during our stay - such a luxury not to have to worry about non-vegan wines! We discovered the dirty cow baileys alternative (it’s a wonderful nightcap) and plan to buy a bottle. They also do a great brand of kombucha in the bar. We were super lucky with the weather, warm enough that we could eat/drink by the beck and watch the birds! Staff are all incredibly friendly & helpful. Overall, I had such a peaceful time at Beck Hall and definitely plan to return to try more of the menu!

Pros: Fully vegan, Extensive menu, Very friendly staff

Best stay ever!

Absolutely beautiful hotel in Malham. All the food from breakfast to tea are 100% vegan. Even the little truffles in the bedroom. Dogs can go anywhere in the hotel. The staff are beyond amazing. The menu was very varied and everything was delicious.

Perfect location, great food!

We're delighted to have experienced this unique all vegan hotel in England. The food was lovely, staff were friendly, location perfect! Catered excellently for gluten free too. We'll never forget the banana blossom 'fish' and chips and drinking wine by the stream. Loved it!

Fantastic food, beautiful location and lovely staff

We had a four night stay at Beck Hall with dinner each night. Beautiful location lovely hotel and super friendly hotel staff. Food was amazing. Really relaxing environment. Just what we needed.

Only minor disappointments,

We had breakfast at 9am on two of the mornings and they had run out of Chia Puddings and pastries.

My partner had lemon chia cheesecake for desssrt and was raving about it and said the star was the candied lemon slice. I ordered it the following evening and mine was served with just a normal lemon slice.

Incredible food in the most stunning location!

We visited Beck Hall for a short staycation earlier this week (April '24) and oh my GOSH it was amazing! I hadn't looked too much at the menu because I didn't want to spoil the surprise but everything we ate during our stay was phenomenal. The staff were lovely and so helpful and friendly, and the whole atmosphere was serene and just a wonderful place to be.

It wasn't quite warm enough to sit outside yet, but the floor-to-ceiling windows (bi-folds which I would imagine they'll open as the weather improves) gave way to beautiful views of the passing stream and local wildlife.

Even if you're not able to stay overnight in the hotel, it's so worth a day trip for the beautiful scenery surrounding, including the iconic "Malham Classic" walk, taking you to the stunning Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and the magical Janet's Foss. Follow this with a meal at Beck Hall and I honestly would describe it as the perfect day!

We will definitely be back and are already looking to book again in June!

Pros: Incredible food, Lovely staff, Stunning location

We will be back 👌👌

Definitely worth a trip, Lovely location right near Malham cove, great for walks and the hotel is dog friendly. The hotel is fully vegan, serving breakfast dinner and tea 7 days a week.
Amazing to have vegan hot drinks available with vegan snacks in your room which is not the norm at most hotels !
If you do not stay at the hotel at least book in for food, the breakfast is amazing, solid options for savoury and sweet tooth’s. The pastries were the best pastries we have had, so fresh and just gorgeous.
We stayed 2 nights so had breakfast and tea there twice, all the food was amazing not a bad word to say about any of what we had and the staff were really friendly and welcoming.

Cons: Difficult to get hold of by phone.

A lovely vegan experience

Our stay at Beck Hall did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the staff were all very friendly. They understood the menu and gave great recommendations. The menu is perfectly balanced between hippy food and junk food (all refined and presented beautifully) which means that there's something for everyone. The hotel stay itself was pleasant but the highlight is definitely the food. The hotel is also very dog friendly- hopefully we in the vegan community will unite and crowd out the dog lot before long 😈 Was everything on the menu and experience 1000% perfect? Probably not, but overall a great experience, and I hope the owners are rewarded for their bravery in going fully vegan

Pros: Range of options on the menu, Lovely setting on the river in beautiful Malham, Log fire in the snug

Cons: It's a bit doggy, Accommodation is solid rather than plush

Beck Hall

I was lucky enough to get a last minute booking for a room at Beck Hall for Easter weekend, unusual as it’s often fully booked. I arrived to a beautiful location on a gorgeous sunny spring day, the setting really is something special. It was busy with people sitting outside by the stream enjoying food, drink and chill time.

I’d booked in for Sunday roast at lunchtime, I opted for the chick’n seitan. Wait wasn’t too long despite how busy they were. Great to see a Yorkshire pudding on the plate, which is often left off for vegans, and a pot of delicious cauli cheese too. The sticky toffee pudding for dessert was light, moist and with a tasty syrup.

Check in for the room was 4pm. The lovely Linda was welcoming, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I was so impressed with my room, a superior, which had a large comfy bed, sofa and well appointed en-suite with roll top bath. The double doors overlooked the grounds and stream and I really could have stayed a week!

For dinner I had the tamarind ‘ribs’ and banana blossom fysh. And the next day for breakfast the cooked option but there were plenty of options available on the menu, as well as cereals, fruit, yogurts, pastries and juices to help yourself to.

For me the staff, room, hotel and location were a 5/5 ⭐️ The food was a little hit and miss though - hard veggies, overcooked chips, burnt salt and pepper topping, sausages on brekkie were very tough and clearly had been sitting a long while. But other elements were delicious. Just lost a star for me there as these issues really should’ve been picked up on by the kitchen staff and not sent out. I did note some other diners sent dishes back, maybe a drop in quality due to a busy period. That said I would absolutely return and really enjoyed my stay at Beck Hall.

disappointed

stayed here for one night and ate breakfast lunch and dinner here. lunch tasted great. we ordered a chicken pesto and sundried tomato sandwich and fries. however, it wasn’t chicken pesto and sundried tomato at all.. there was no tomatoes, and it was in a garlic/aioli sauce rather than pesto? it tasted nice but wasn’t what we ordered. the room was okay, nothing special, small and didn’t look like the pictures, lots of scratches on the walls and chipped paint but generally it was fine and clean. then we went for dinner later on. i ordered a sage and thyme seitan ballotine, with buttered greens and crispy polenta and a red pepper purée. it came with a rich gravy on it also, which was very nice, just not listed on the menu. the ‘greens’ weren’t buttered at all, it
was cold, watery broccoli, cauliflower and mange tout. the red pepper purée was cold (i think it was meant to be) but that didn’t match well with the rest of the dish. the seitan had a horrible texture, but perhaps this was just a preference on my part. generally i was really let down by the dish. my girlfriend ordered the pesto parpadelle with crispy tofu, it was so bland and unseasoned that she could barely manage it and was not worth the £16. Also, the waiting staff in general felt pretty cold towards us, and i witnessed one of them making eye contact with another to signal that it was just us left to order/finish food before they could shut the kitchen, and the whole thing felt very rushed. We went to breakfast in the morning, and had expected a spread of pastries, toast, fruit etc as described on the website. unfortunately when we got there at 9 (mid way through breakfast serving time) there was one pain au chocolat left and 3 grapes… which was so dissapointing, these were not replaced. we ordered breakfast, i had the avocado and carrot on sourdough and my girlfriend had the pancakes. i am not fussy and would usually eat my food if i didn’t really like it (i ate my dinner despite not liking it) but i couldn’t eat my breakfast at all. it was covered in some form of cream sauce (again not mentioned on the menu) and it had such an overwhelming taste/smell that i felt sick. my girlfriend wasn’t impressed with her pancakes, they were cold, crispy and drowned in berry compote and a sour tasting yoghurt. To be fair to beck hall, us disliking our breakfast could be down to preference rather than the food being ‘bad’ but the lack of the breakfast ‘buffet’ options was extremely disappointing.

Pros: outside would be nice in the summer , nice walks nearby , lunch food was nice

Cons: menu description didn’t equal what was served , food very sub-par, staff were cold

Fully vegan restaurant in a lovely location!

We always stop by when we're in the area, so great to be able to order anything off the menu! The village is beautiful itself so definitely worth the diversion.
Lost one star because the roast dinner wasn't quite the traditional lunch we were after, it had a very rich sauce type gravy and the vegetables were so al dente they were almost raw. Also topped with a grassy garnish!? Not sure if it was a play on vegans just eating grass!
Still an awesome place to visit.

Lovely vegan food

This is a great vegan restaurant overlooking the river so picturesque. I had the vegan chicken Sunday lunch and also the vegan fish and chips. I found the seitan used for the Sunday lunch chicken a bit rubbery but the rest of the meal was absolutely delicious and a good portion too.

I would highly recommend this .

Pros: Vegan fish and chips , Chocolate pot, Lemon cheesecake

Lovely lunch stop

Great little lunch stop, such a variety of different vegan food, only thing I’m marking down on is the serving size; for the chickpea ‘tuna’ and jacket potato I was still a bit hungry after. Lush tho and well worth a visit!
