Tan Hill Inn
The highest pub in Britain at 528 metres, where hikers make a pilgrimage for a giant Yorkshire pudding on the moors.
Located on the moors at the northernmost tip of Swaledale, at 1,732 feet (528 metres), this is the highest pub in Britain, and the Pennine Way passes by its door. The kitchen serves classic British pub food from midday daily, including pies, fish and chips, and steak. The most famous dish is the giant Yorkshire pudding filled with sausages or stew, and Sunday roasts are served at weekends. No reservations are needed. Breakfast is also available in the morning. The stone building has open fires and real ale. Winter storms can cut off access, so drive with care. The average cost is about £20–30 per person.
