Pub Fayre

The Dales Chef

Friday, 16 May 2025 - 13 minutes

Bruce Elsworth, the Dales Chef takes us back to when pub fayre first started in Roman times, through the middle ages and to more recent times.

From the ploughmans to scampi and chips, burgers and gastro-pubs, our favourite pub grub has gone through some changes.  We chart those culinary delights from tavernas to Bernie Inns!

DId you know the first UK gastro-pub was here in the Dales? (along with one in London, but we won't argue the toss)

Bruce reveals his favourite pub fayre and talks about his career from pub pot wash to business owner including his time at that first Gastro Pub.
