George & Dragon in Ryedale

Great meal, with great service, couldn't really fault it or the place and staff, and unlike a lot of eatery's around this area it didn't cost an arm and leg either.

We had Sunday lunch. Wow...great food, ample portions and good prices....very generous. Staff are very welcoming. Dogs welcome and made a fuss off. 11 out of 10

From the moment we walked in the door we were given a warm welcome. The staff were very attentive . The room was comfortable and clean although , as some other reviews have stated a little dated. Excellent value for money with comfy beds. We ate in the restaurant for our evening meal which had loads of choice and a pleasant atmosphere. we couldn’t fault it. Breakfast , which was included in the room price was delicious. We are planning another visit very soon.

Amazing Sunday lunch. Roast beef was tender and delicious, loads of potatoes and veg and huge jug or gravy. Do not miss out!!!

Very friendly. Good beer. What's not to like.

lovely atmosphere, staff very welcoming

Possibly the best Sunday lunch I've ever had!

This hotel is nice, if a bit aged in decor. We stayed for one night only and found the room comfortable and clean. Staff were all very welcoming. They did seem a bit overrun at breakfast, forgetting to take drinks orders for half of us, then forgetting to actually bring the drinks, and forgetting our toast. These mistakes were mostly rectified and apologised for. We waited a while for the breakfast but not an unreasonable amount of time. The food was pretty average if I'm honest. Certainly not bad, but not overly impressive. Overall the place is nice and I'd stay again.

Great service and value for money.

This is a dog friendly place that offers a good variety of food on the menu. The staff was friendly and loved the dogs. The food was amazing and very good value for money. We were in the area for a week and ate here twice. We both had different dishes each time. Tasty hot food and would love to know how they make their king prawn stirfry.

Lovely quaint old pub/hotel. Breakfast lovely, staff really friendly, helpful and professional. Looking forward to our next stay

We have been here four days and eaten here twice already. The food is absolutely delicious. This place is definitely well worth a visit but ring to check availability. Also dog friendly X

Ok, so the good thing about this pub is the food and staff. Both great. We booked on booking.com and paid £110 for a junior suite with breakfast. I would not suggest booking this room. It was nice to have doors out to lawn. The bed is really hard - the four poster - I struggled to sleep on it and was aching in the morning! 🌅 I did leave the feedback sheet and ask the manager to call me but they didn’t. It’s very rare I do a 2 star review but this room was not good value for money. Been ok for half the price. I suggested the manager takes a lie on top of the bed for a few hours and see how they felt! Even my hubby said it was uncomfortable and he sleeps anywhere Did feel sorry for the young waitress that was struggling to keep up with dining room duties on her own last Tuesday night

Looking for somewhere to relax and have a drink with the dog, potentially eat . Couldn't be more helpful and patient with a barking anxious dog. Didn't end up eating because of said dog, but thank you for being so helpful...

While staying locally for a family reunion and we were walking around Kirkbymoorside looking for somewhere to eat. We stopped to look at the menu outside and a couple who were going inside recommended the food and as it looked busy we decided to give it a try. The welcome was nice and the girls worked out how to fit us in as we didn’t have a booking. We ordered some drinks that came quickly albeit they didn’t have a lot of normal drinks that we like but we found something and we then ordered our food. This unfortunately is where it went downhill a little. My eldest daughter took the Balmoral chicken and you could see it was dried out so I guess it had sat under a hot lamp for a while or had been microwaved. She said it tasted dry but with the sauce that came with it, it was ok. Balmoral chicken is her go to if it is ever on a menu and she was disappointed how dry it was. Her boyfriend had the lamb pie and he said it was ok. My youngest daughter took the Lasagne and rather than a béchamel sauce through it which is what it should have been for a lasagne, it was covered in a cheese sauce. She is not a cheese fan and took the sauce off a much as she could but ate less than 20% of it as she was not enjoying it. My wife had the fish and chips and she said it was fine mainly apart from the batter which was slightly over done. I had the rump steak and that was good, cooked exactly how I wanted it and I liked the pepper sauce that comes with it. Only thing was the chips were a bit overcooked and were soggy rather than crispy. I also had to keep asking for a steak knife. Had it been better we would have went back the following night but found somewhere else to go instead. It’s a shame because the staff were pleasant and the prices are reasonable.

We ate at The George & Dragon. We really enjoyed the food and the service was extremely friendly. Highly recommended.

Meal and drinks with friends. Lovely service, excellent food and friendly atmosphere

Appalling experience staying in a double room for our Wedding Anniversary. No night porter on arrival despite the hotel telling us someone would be there...we found the keys & a piece of paper in the entrance with our name on! When the porter did arrive she couldn't speak any English. Mattress soft & not hotel standard. A water heater in the room kept coming on throughout the night keeping us awake. The room was poorly furnished with bare bulb light & literally no furniture so I had to kneel on the floor to do my hair. The morning was awful... literally no water running from taps...then I filled a sink to wash my hair & the cold water stopped leaving scalding hot water only! The staff offered a dirty used room to use the shower in & I had to go through the corridor with soap in my hair to the dirty bathroom to shower. The staff told us it was "because everyone was having a shower at the same time"!!! Clearly happens regularly! We emailed asking for a refund. Absolutely no response from the Hotel. Worst hotel we have ever stayed in. £140 for a terrible stay.

Shocking service. Mediocre food. Ordered fish and chips which was poor. Requested sauces which didn't turn up. Ordered more drinks for the children which didn't turn up. Asked for the included children's ice cream and was told the chef was busy and it would be 10 minutes, really??

Fantastic meal. Food and service is always so good here.

Wonderful for family dinn. Went here 2 weeks ago

Absolutely amazing food! Service was incredible. Totally recommend going 😋

A great family Sunday lunch. Excellent food and great service 👌

We are staying in Kirkbymoorside for a couple of days. We popped in for an evening meal. The welcome from the staff was very helpful and friendly. We had the lamb shank with fresh veg and dauphenoise potatoes which was unbelievably delicious. I would also recommend the white chocolate and Malteser cheese cake. I would like to thank Ben who was very friendly, helpful, polite and attentive. The resteraunt was busy but it didn't hinder the service from Maisey who was very efficient. I would highly recommend the George and Dragon and will return again if we are in the area.

Very nice location, fantastic pub with excellent staff and a super nice restaurant. The B&B rooms were clean and comfortable but a little dated. I would stay here again.

Fab food & very helpful and friendly staff thank you 😊

Fabulously clean and comfortable room. Food was excellent. We had pulled pork burger and lasagne. Chips sublime. Wifi service great.

We popped in on the off chance at 5:30 on a Friday, and were very happy to get a table for two at six. Comfy seating while we waited with drinks, then a quiet corner table for the meal. Good range on the menu, including several veggie & vegan options, and tempting daily specials, from which we chose lamb shanks and duck breast, both excellent! Pig in hole starter much enjoyed, and lemon curd mess couldn't be bettered! We immediately booked again for the next night. Free parking roadside nearby. A few tables outside at front, if you want to watch the world go by...

We had lovely, albeit simple meals in the Knights white linen restaurant part of the pub. Great ale as well. Staff brilliant.

Tried 3 pubs within 50 yards by far the best for well kept beer, service, chat, atmosphere and the only one that appealed for food. Great Sunday lunch. Everyone obsessed by talking about their bloody dogs though hilarious grow up they’re not children. Thankfully none of the pampered beasts looking like their owners (think pug, bulldog etc) in the pub slobbering when I’m eating. Just lucky I guess.

Lovely pub, we were shown into the dining room which was more like a restaurant, nice table cloths etc, food was very good, waiter service even better. Woukd go there again next time.

Lovely old pub. Good food. Good beer. We go everything we visit Kirby Moorside. Would defo recommend.

Had a meal here and it was very nice and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend.

Absolutely amazing menu. I go vegetarian when I can, and the choice was excellent. Then I had Steak the following night, was was not disappointed. Awesome choice, excellent food, and we returned twice on our short break. And the Blonde Ale was very nice too. Lovely, friendly service.

Great location, good food and drink

We come for a 10th birthday meal with family and friends it was really lovely meal we all enjoyed it we would all go again

Always stop here when visiting family. And you always have a lovely welcome. See you next year.

Wonderful, we'd recommend it to family and friends

Nice hotel with friendly helpful staff. Brilliant food and a lovely breakfast. Rooms are adequate with plenty of space. Second visit after 22 months staff still friendy and food still excellent

Very friendly, great food reasonably priced. A lovely stay.

Stayed 2 nights, a great location right in the middle of Kirkbymoorside. Nice quiet room at the back, over the garden and up the steps. Room a little dated but spotless and quite big and comfy. Staff so friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. Ate there two evenings, both times food was excellent and huge portions. Cooked breakfast also excellent and huge portion and plenty of choices. Would definitely recommend.

Have eaten here twice this week. Lovely food at very reasonable prices. Great selection of beers and very friendly staff. Dog friendly too.

Came as an overnight booking with my partner. Room was a decent size but tv far too small from the bed to see anything. Bathroom was lovely with a lovely shower. That’s where the good stuff ends. Checking in was easy, but no friendly greeting and thrown several tickets for the Wi-Fi which didn’t even work , another guest asked and they said it was because the rooms were too far from the router however we tried to log on in the pub itself and it didn’t work!! We found our room and came down for dinner, first the waitress didn’t know what a real ale was and then asked about wines and she didn’t know so she brought a scrappy piece of paper from her pocket and proceeded to show me ‘the wine list’!! She took our order and after 25 minutes we had to ask where our drinks were. Informed them we had just driven 80 miles and would like a drink, the reply well so has everyone else at the bar and she’s on her own, however a large group had come in after us stood at the bar and got served their drinks - must be the key to a quick drink here stand at the bar and not order at the table. We ordered food, both had the cheapest on offer at nearly £16 each, burger with cheese and bacon, chips and onion rings. Now for that price I would have expected homemade chips, but these were frozen and not very nice. The burger was bland and seemed cheap. We went to pay for the bill but they had no idea what we’d had, we had to tell them. We were informed on arrival that breakfast was at 7.30, so us and 9 other guests all waiting in the courtyard for breakfast doors to open at 8 (standard start time apparently at weekends) not great when you want to be up early and out to enjoy your break away! Next the breakfast- what a disaster. We were shown to a table and told to help ourselves to cereal and juice. Only orange available. She came to take our order but we said (as in no hurry) to please take the order of the large family as they had a train to catch for 9am. So she did, but instead of putting the order straight into the kitchen she then went round every table to take their orders first and put them all into the kitchen at the same time. When ordering a hot breakfast she didn’t want to know what items you did want on your breakfast but the items you didn’t want. Mine came out with baked beans, now anyone who knows me knows I detest baked beans, the juice everything, so I said I didn’t order beans, she informed the person who’s written the order down, she replied you’ll have to check my order slip, no need to check I definitely would not have asked for beans!!! The breakfast very hurriedly came back from the kitchen with the other items moved to a new plate, bean juice too where they had been sat in it. Said there’s bean juice on the plate I’m not eating it, please make me a new breakfast and a new breakfast came. Checkout, the girl came to check us out from kitchen area with a mouth full of food and wasn’t able to speak until she’s swallowed. We then had to ask do we leave via the front door or the back, we were told she could open the door if we wished., said our car was parked there so would be easier, it was only on leaving the premises we were asked was everything alright to which I replied the room was comfortable. We were unable to park in the designated car park, but parking out front is free overnight but car needs to be moved by 10am. Staff friendliness leaves a lot to be desired, found them rude an uninterested There were some faults to the room, pictures added. Save yourself time and money, we definitely won’t be back, but recommend you travel slightly to the bay horse inn at rainton, thirsk, rooms are cheap and cheerful, food is cheaper and very definitely homemade with local produce. Friendly owner who goes the extra mile when needed.

We ate here twice during our holiday, staying in a nearby village. Good service and the food was really good... (we both had the steaks and were happy that our 2nd visit happened to be on steak night!)

We drove into Kirbymoorside needing coffee, we spotted this has outside tables and had two extremely good coffees each with a homemade biscuit. Hit the spot - many thanks.

Whilst the meal was good, our night was spoilt by the owner who obviously has never heard of customer service. I sent back my wine as it didn't taste right. Thw owner then came through and proceeded to tell the whole restaurant that there was nothing wrong with it etc, etc. Is this really the way to treat your customer's? If our food hadn't already been served, we would have walked out.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the George and Dragon. David and Alison were the perfect hosts. Their espresso coffee is probably the best in Ryedale. Will definitely visit again.

Arrived late with my wife, but managed to get a table. Evidently it had been extremely busy and there were staff shortages. Ordered the only remaining meat, which was turkey. It arrived with roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes, cabbage and broccoli. With loads of gravy. They had run out of cauliflower cheese, which was a disappointment. However, what we were served was great and was served by a lovely young but clearly harassed waitress. We will be back again to sample again as it was a good meal at a good price. Thank you.

Had a very pleasant 2 night stay at the George & Dragon. All staff very hospitable. Special mention forAli as she was always very pleasant, whatever her workload.The meals were to an excellent standard. Rooms clean. Our dog was made very welcome too. Well done to all. Recommended.

Stopped here for lunch - my husband had the most enormous ploughman's - cheese, ham, pate and gala pie with toast, bread roll, pickled onions and red onion chutney - all delicious! I had a fresh 'real' burger with delicious chips. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

The food is really nice and great to see something different on the menu. I had the lamb, which was so nice. Book to sit in the reasaurant, its a lovely space.

Called in on the spur of the moment after a long walk on the edge of North Yorkshire moors for a drink. While there we looked at the menu and decided to try and book a table. The staff and the manager Dean were most helpful and managed to facilitate a early booking slot. We rtn later, seated promptly the staff were attentive and friendly without being pushy at all. We both ordered the scallops followed by the Trio of lamb, the chefs really know how to present and cook , the scallops were tender and melted in the mouth served on a bed of black pudding and minted pea pura. The lamb was done to perfection, again beautiful presented. We enjoyed the the food and atmosphere so much we booked again for the following night, again the food was delicious and of the same standard. The restaurant was extremely busy but the staff were excellent and kept us informed of any delay due to the large amount of dinners attending ,All in all a fantastic place to eat with great staff who worked extremely hard to make it a thoroughly enjoyble 2 nights, will be returning soon

Only stopped for coffee. But nice coffee, splendid home made ginger biscuit (unasked for and free!) good service - so no complaints.

Visiting the area and heard good reports on food thought we would try it. We ordered the pie Bad choice was told it was chicken ham and veg pie sounded lovely,when it came it was chicken and mushroom suet pie not told it was suet, it was a load of stodge and mush no liquid in it very tastless .But chips and peas very good. wish we'd gone to the white house farm at Rosedale again which was excellent.

First night in Kirkbymoorside and booked George & Dragon. It went beyond our expectations. Table was ready in front of lovely fire in bar area. We had haggis/black pudding tower- delicious. For mains we had pork in cider and lamb. Both were presented beautifully and were consumed with delight. This was restaurant standard food at a very reasonable price. They even went the extra mile and did sausages for our 2 dogs, We had no room for pudding- perhaps next time.

The food is wonderful and decent sizes. Over 2 nights we had soup, lamb, steak, duck haggis, plum crumble, salmon and scrambled eggs, smoked haddock with poached egg. Definitely visit again, lovely base for walking. Staff very helpful and friendly. Rooms little bit dated but very clean and food, price and location is top notch

While staying in kirbymoorside we booked a table at this pub .the outside does look a little tired but once you walk in its bright clean and very welcoming. We were given a choice of table given one of our friends has dementia and we require a certain type of area . The staff were smartly dressed polite and very friendly. The decor is very good and we felt very comfortable in this covid 19 times .we were served promptly and efficiently. The request for certain items was met promptly and with no fuss .we all had different items from the menu. They all lived up to expectations. Due to the portion size none of us could manage a pudding. Really worth a visit.

We booked in advance for a table at 6:30pm, and were seated quickly in the bar area on arrival (after the obligatory hand sanitiser). It was quite quiet but that was to our liking - it did get busier through the evening, and we did feel that the tables were a little closer together than was comfortable. We were leaving shortly after the tables around us were occupied, so can't say what the staff would have done if we'd mentioned it. There were a few regulars but it didn't feel like newcomers were excluded.The food was lovely - we had soufflé (twice baked, in cheese sauce so quite rich) with chips (homemade, very nice) and salad (on the small side but fresh). Staff were attentive but not pestering. Puddings were also delicious and of a decent size.

Even when booked with confirmation and payment taken ....we didn’t get our room!I would definitely say ring and double check before setting off and been told you’ve been shoved in a hotel nearby as “these things happen”!! Very unprofessional and confrontational from us arriving and asking to check in.

Sadly a poor experience. One of the members of staff on seemed very unhappy bordering on rude with interactions with us, and we were ignored for a good 35-40 mins, raising eyebrows and amusement from the rest of the diners who could see our trouble every time we did try and catch someone’s attention, even shouting “excuse me please” after the waitress twice as she disappeared. Finally got to order, and although one steak came correctly (rare), a medium-rare came well done, further adding to our frustration of not being able to eat until a whole hour after we were seated. The payment process at the bar again was provided by a member of staff who seemed grumpy at best. Not a brilliant experience. Also, the establishment didn’t ask for or have records of attendance of its customers, something that seems remiss given the guidance from the government on 2nd July.In a nutshell, set out to help get some cash flowing back in to the local pubs, and came away very disappointed.

Booked a table for a family dinner this evening. Food was lovely, all our meals were great, but it took 1 hr 15 mins to eat. The order was lost in the kitchen, genuine error, but we were then not offered any drinks or any reduction to our bill. Such a shame, the food was really tasty and the waitress very apologetic, but not to be offered drinks while we were waiting was too much. Staff were clearly overwhelmed and owners seemed oblivious. We could see other people waiting a long time for drinks, real shambles.

Food was really good at a reasonable price for what you got service was not up to the same standard seemed to be bit of confusion whether this is due to current climate I'm not sure that being said the staff were very friendly chips were fantastic all 3 course we're delicious if we are back the area would definitely visit again.

We had a most delightful and unexpected surprise for my friend's Birthday evening meal.A pub/ hotel restaurant, The George & Dragon in Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire produced for us a meal of outstanding Michelin-standard Quality at mere Gastro Pub prices.Added to this was the friendly atmosphere of the restaurant and all its efficient and helpful staff.A birthday celebration to be remembered for many years to come!

Hate posting this... I live in Kirkbymoorside, a lovely town and this is the nicest pub in the town. The food and beer are good and the bar staff are lovely. It has been for sale for some time now. The owners are not in the slightest bit interested in customers enjoying their visits. You’ll hardly ever see a local in here sadly, and the reason is simply down to the owners. They are rude, abrupt and simply not welcoming. Had my last night in there tonight after being told off for moving a table 2 feet! (until it’s sold on).

We were in Kirbymoorside for a weekend break and ate twice at the George & Dragon, hubby loved the steak & stilton pie so much he had it both times! I had the haddock/ scampi mix which was very nice and then the sea bass which was beautiful with a fab creamy sauce and fresh veg. Big portions but did manage a pud which was very nice too. The staff and locals were all very friendly and we could take our dog in with us ( always a bonus) would always go back if we were in the area

Me and my partner visited Kirkbymoorside on the 7th December 2019. We asked our B&B of any nice places to go for an evening meal where we were advised the George and Dragon as the food is always lovely.... which it was. Both me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed the food so hats off to the chefs. However, the reason I have given an average rating is because the staff were incredibly rude from making the initial phone call to book a table..... when we arrived the waitress had a booking for us but no name, to which the waitress asked a colleague who's reply was whilst looking directly at me "I couldn't understand him" which I both me and my partner thought was rude. We were then sat down to eat where the service during pour meal was ok, I guess but wouldn't visit again. When we came to pay our bill at the bar I was asked if I was paying by card or cash which couldn't have looked more of an inconvenience for the waitress if she tried. She then asked me if I was leaving a tip as she needed to put it into the machine before progressing. (I've been to enough places and paid by card to know that the machine should have been handed over at that point for the customer to decide) My response was obviously a no as I felt it was rude and we both felt like an inconvenience from arrival.Summary:Food: Brilliant!Staff: Big fat no, find somewhere else to eat.

Visited for dinner with my wife and adult daughter. Menu sounded very good, and the venue seemed pleasant enough. The waitress took our food order but forgot to enquire whether we would like a drink before / with dinner. We actually had to ask her !When asked what the soup of the day was she said she wasn't sure. !! ..didnt even offer to find out !I ordered the steak pie and my wife and duaghter ordered the duck. The steak pie was terrible. The crust was rock hard and the mash had clearly been microwaved. The skin on it gave that away. The gravy also had a skin on it and came out as a warm lump. The duck and vegetables were all well over cooked. We were so disappointed with the food that we actually paid the (£90) bill and left without finishing it. We even left the half empty bottle of wine, such was our disappointment with the quality.

As a local kirkbymoorside resident the george and dragon is our regular place to dine the food is always of a good standard with fresh produce cooked well ,on thursday evening Steak Night is a popular night with locals and tourists and it is well worth making a reservation ,the puddings are all homemade and delicious if you can manage it ,very friendly owners and staff,Worth a visit if in the area.

Called in without a booking and were found a table even though very busy. The food was good but a little over- seasoned. Service was excellent.

Lovely food, generous portions and plenty of choice I had the steak and stilton pie which was delicious with a lovely crispy crust. It came with a pile of fluffy mashed potato, peas and gravy. I did struggle to eat it all as it was such a large portion. Possibly not the cheapest place to eat but definitely great quality and value for money.

Our first stay in Kirkbymoorside was at this ex old coaching inn. We stayed in a superior double room with walk in shower on the first floor overlooking the garden and car park. The room itself was very comfortable and we both slept very well. The break was intended to be a respite from the tribulations of a house move and sure enough, we were able to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet. The first meal we had was on the first evening of our stay and consisted of haddock and chips for my wife and sirloin steak and chips for me. Both meals were well cooked with good quality ingredients and were a joy to eat. The wine list is fairly comprehensive and will suit the majority of pallets. The breakfasts were also on the same level of quality as the evening meals. No complaints whatsoever.It must be said that the staff throughout the hotel were absolutely amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Everything they did was done with a smile and a will to please. All in all, we had a very pleasant and enjoyable stay and without any hesitation, we can say that we will be back at the first opportunity. Well done all.

Brilliant service, excellent food, We had the offer of either the bar or the main restaurant. Everything on the menu looked great & certainly would encourage trying the haggis & black pudding for starters. The Henry Lamb was perfectly cooked as the main. Look forward to visiting again.

On passing we saw that it was steak night and quite good value so we went and enjoyed a good meal there

It started badly when sullen waitress asked us to move to a smaller table in case she got a large group, fair enough but place was empty and lots of tables available, husbands beer, a pint of local Howardian was poor, he sent it back she kept saying ‘I do apologise’ in a tone that meant otherwise. Husband an official beer taster at festivals knows a duff pint. His Next pint Timothy Taylor was reasonable. I asked how big the fish on one of their smaller plates was she said it’s how it comes! No answer. Chose the larger one, batter very thick fish very thin chips ok. Husband had small portion of scampi and chips which was fine. Locals seem to take over part of pub which is great we all need locals supporting their pub, but one lady was talking so loudly about getting wasted the night before we could hear her across the pub, drove us mad, doesn’t normally bother me but she was so loud it wasn’t funny.

An old Georgian coaching house with beams, etc. & lots of character with modern comforts. We had a very comfortable bed and slept well in this quiet location. The bathroom was clean with good toiletries but the temperature of the shower fluctuated according to the number of other users in surrounding rooms. Oooh! Oooh! Aaah!

Lovely pub, great breakfast, lovely staff, what more do you need.

very good food,and large portions,,all freshly cooked,in comfortable surroundings..well worth a visit,,the wife and me will be back without a doubt,,

Staying in the local area for an evening and decided to give this place a try. The pint of Wainright Golden Ale was lovely, well kept beer! The Farm Yard Burger I had was absolutely delicious, I would say one of the nicest beer patty’s I’ve ever had. I added cheese to the burger and it was great. Certainly would recommend this place for food! Staff were friendly and very helpful.

Visited with family on vacation. Excellent quality locally sourced food. Great service. Will be back

Needed lunch while travelling & found this which sounded ok.

We were staying nearby and needed an evening meal. It had been suggested we visit here but were warned portions were big! Initially we looked into the Knights Restaurant but found it to be empty so retreated to the bar where a charming member of staff said we could eat in the bar area or the restaurant. We chose the bar and had a lovely table by the window. We ordered drinks while browsing the menu - not extensive but a good choice available. The order was taken by a friendly waitress and then we didn't have to wait too long for our order to be served. The steak was cooked to perfection with excellent chips while the lamb shank to was delicious. The waitress was attentive but not overly so. We were offered the dessert menu but were too full from the main course (we had been warned - Yorkshire portions we were told afterwards!). All in all the dining experience was fine, all the staff we met were friendly and the atmosphere pleasant. No hesitation recommending visiting for a meal here.

we spent 4 nights here, hosts and staff, were absolutely lovely, a true Yorkshire welcome. Our room was very comfortable in the old mill conversion across the lovely courtyard. The bar is great to sit and have a drink or two nice atmostphere, the resturant is also very good, and Yorkshire breakfast to die for egg 2 bacon sausage, toms beans mushrooms and black pud. toast,orange juice cereals fruit choice is endless and all in the price excellent service with a smile. We simply loved it and will return as we have still got sights we wish to see and we just love the area and the people. Thankyou to you all for alovely stay in your county.

This was a great hotel in the middle of the town. We were given room 8 which was a great room also the breakfast was ample and the restaurant provided excellent food

I have eaten here before and the food was very good, a few weeks ago 4 of us reserved for the restaurant mid week, we were put into the bar/ dining area.

A wonderfull no-nonsense place to stay for a night or more, combining true hospitality, good comfortable rooms and excellent cuisine. We had a superior dinner with top quality beef and excellent Italian and French wines and a superb English breakfast in the morning before leaving for the most beautiful moors just nearby.

The choice on the menu is huge including two vegan options!! The quality of the food is unimaginable....my Mom could not have done it better. The portions are huge but the quality is maintained. The service from the friendly and helpful staff makes it a home from home. I will be back

Good food, well presented in a very pleasant restaurant. The staff were friendly. We had a very enjoyable evening. Would not hesitate to eat here again.

If your are a genuine foodie and understand food, they please avoid this place! The food is poor, badly presented and nowhere near good standards of fine dining gastro pubs. That asides, what made our experience terrible is the attitude and feeble customer service demonstrated by the owners and their team. Not a happy place.

We have given this pub 3 or 4 chances. Visiting Kirkbymoorside regularly we often eat in local establishments. This place stands out as being by far the worst customer service we have come across. We have previously visited and had not recieved great customer service but thought we would give it another. Today we tried to book a table. Granted this was for a Saturday night and we went in to the bar to book at around 11am. However, we were made to feel totally unwelcome as if our custom didn’t matter. They did not even try to accommodate us making us feel stupid that anywhere would accommodate us on a Saturday night. How wrong they were. The Kings Head 100yards down the road were more than accommodating and we have just had an excellent meal. Please read our review of the Kings Head!

Nous voulions dîner le soir où ils servent la viande du boucher local.

This is not your usual pub food. I had a very good dinner with a terrine as starter and a sea bass. Recommended place!

Just a stones throw from where we were staying with my wife’s mom and her sister lives nearby Great food and service.

Good menu and well presented dinner. Very helpful staff with nice wine selection and relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended for an enjoyable meal in kirbymoorside

I did think the price of fish and chips at nearly £14 each was expensive, and not that good. Had far better at fish and chip shop.

Food was great, atmosphere was good and managed to get a table for 5 as a walk in! Was a bit noisy, but there was a wedding reception happening.

Stopped for Sunday lunch and wasn’t disappointed! Me and my husband both opted for the beef roast, portion size was good and very tasty. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Staying nearby for the week and will definitely be back.

Such a pleasant surprise to discover an interesting range of fish and meat dishes and the best vegan sausages ever!

Great real ale choice Excellent wine choice Great food and large portions My wife and I both had two starters instead of a starter and a meal.👍👍👍 Great service Price ok 👍

We met up with several pals from my schooldays with their partners for a weekend and decided to eat here on the Friday as we were booked elsewhere for the Saturday. The menu had a reasonable selection and the food was well cooked when it was served. For a small place they had a good wine list without the usual "bottled in the UK" industrial stuff. We were all quite impressed with both the service and the quality.

My wife and I visited for dinner on a Sunday but did not have a good experience. The food was poor and there was only one member of staff on duty trying to attend to six or seven tables.
