The Yorkshire gastropub putting pooches first
For as long as I can remember I have been nervous around dogs, which I guess makes the decision to stay in the pub awarded 'Dog Friendly Accommodation of the Year' at The Yorkshire Post Tourism Awards 2023 a bemusing one.was effectively the Garden of Eden for dogs, it was too late to do anything about it – I was already there. And having hauled my family five hours up the A1M to get to the bucolic heart of Yorkshire, there was no way I would have been allowed to about-turn anyway.
Nestled in the almost supernaturally picturesque village of Malham in the heart of The Yorkshire Dales, The Listers Arms is a Grade II-listed 17th century coaching inn named after local grandee and landowner Thomas Lister. Skipping forward a few centuries to 2007, the inn was acquired and refurbished by hospitality firm Daniel Thwaites. This refurbishment was complemented by the addition of the Lister barn in 2014, more on which later.
I was wowed by both tempura-based starters, and the Steak and Thwaites ale pie was so comforting I nearly cuddled it. My culinary highlight, however, was the verdant curry I woofed down on our last night. I was told that The Lister Arms' chefs hail from India, and it showed in the execution. My wife's favourite meal came at the other end of the day in the shape of a delectable Eggs Benedict.
To win such a title, the inn took part in a gruelling entry process and was praised by judges for being "a truly dog-friendly inn which offers an array of dog-friendly amenities including a Waggy Tails welcome pack and breakfast sausages".
