The Gold Cup Inn in Hambleton - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We called in at the end of a fab walk. The welcome was lovely and the decor was even nicer. Robyn clearly takes real pride. Unfortunately it was raining, so we found ourselves stranded and forced to stay for 4 very enjoyable pints. We're told that food will be available from the end of July. If you're passing then pop in and support this great pub.

Full of unsavoury hunting thugs. The pub clearly supports them and their behaviour. Not fit for families.

Absolutely love the relaxed feel of this pub. The owners are very friendly and make you feel at home. Great traditional home cooked food in a no hurry atmosphere. Cannot wait to go again.

We had an absolutely fantastic Sunday lunch today. In a way don’t want to recommend as want to keep it our go to place. Fantastic food, expertly seasoned and so tasty, good size portions without being stingy or wasteful, staff friendly and helpful 10⭐️ Julie, Matthew and family

We booked Sunday Lunch: it was the first time we have been to this restaurant. We had a lovely drive through the Yorkshire countryside and arrived at the pub to find it has good views over the Vale of York. There is a nice beer garden and dogs are welcome. Having recently moved to the area we are keen to find good places to eat and this is definitely one of them. I chose roast beef from the Sunday lunch menu and my husband had slow cooked pork, The chicken liver pate starter I had was really good and was served with a little, delicious chutney and a small salad on the side. My husband had a good portion of whitebait, served with a small salad. The beef was served slightly pink (perfect for me!) and my husband's pork was succulent with well crisped crackling. There was a good selection of accompanying vegetables. We did not have dessert, we were too full! The staff were really friendly and welcoming and we felt that we could have asked for anything and it would be no trouble. The owners are working hard to build up a post-Covid business and we will definitely be visiting this pub often.

Great food tonight - thank you 👍🏻

We went for Sunday lunch today, 5th June 2022. The interior is a little dated but very clean. Staff were very welcoming. We had starters of broccoli and stilton soup which was delicious. My wife had fish cake which was mainly filled with mashed potato and very little fish. We both had a roast beef Sunday lunch. The meal was plentiful but served cold. This was very disappointing, and it’s hard to understand why people struggle to supply a hot meal. The pub was virtually empty so god only knows how they will cope if it gets busy.

Superb Sunday lunch today. Generous portions and interesting selection of vegetables. Dauphinois potatoes in addition to roast potato, huge Yorkshire pudding, carrot, broccoli, mashed swede, cauliflower cheese. Good beer too! Lovely rural pub.

The website says the pub is open 12 until 12 on a Saturday. I went there at 2.45 pm on Saturday 21 May '22. The chalkboard in the car park said "we are open" . The curtains were all closed and the door was locked...The drive there was nice, though.

Food was amazing would defo go back, nice friendly bar staff, 10/10

Average, had a couples night here and they had rose tinted glasses. Don't get me wrong, welcoming hosts and nice venue. Food was okay, rather expensive for what was served but its a small village pub. The place has aspirations but the chef won't deliver, but he or she tries. Got horrendously noisy at about 9pm when the locals arrived with children and domino games. Probably okay for a quick bite after a cycle or walk but don't go out of your way if you want good food and some quiet ambiance. It caters for locals which you can't blame them for, but there are better closer by.

Totally disappointed with the whole evening. Service poor, steak not cooked to as it should be. Expensive night to have to send food back. Lack of acknowledgement is bad manners. Wont be rushing back. Total let down

We have regularly eaten out at the Gold Cup over the years so when it changed hands last year we hoped that it would continue with the same high standards of food, decor and welcome. Unfortunately our first visit was very disappointing so we left it 6 months or so to try it again, hoping that the new owners would 'settle in'. Unfortunately things had not improved a great deal. I wish it well but for now anyway, we will eat elsewhere - maybe try again in another 6 months!

Lovely food and atmosphere. Attentive, helpful staff.

We had a fabulous lunch. Atmosphere was lovely

Long walk around this area finishing at the pub. Polite and friendly service, good pint , good value. Recommended if in the area.

I have visited the pub quite often over the years and latterly at least once a week. The food is excellent, all freshly cooked with many of the dishes (including the pies) being made by the chef Richard; yes, sometimes we have had to wait a little while for our food but it is so good - and plenty of it, that it is worth the wait. The pub has a lovely atmosphere. I really can't understand Dewsburyman who gives the impression that standards have dropped (which they certainly haven't) and says the lettering outside has been changed from rich gold to grayish white - the only thing that has changed outside is the name of the Licensee above the door so not sure where that last comment has come from.

Beautiful food. You have got to try a side of onion rings. Yum yum xxx

Father’s Day meal today was very good indeed the roast beef was spot on and melt in the mouth and plenty of it,loads of vegetables left you full up. Desert menu was very temping,also a good pint of Theakstons on tap. Will return for Sunday dinner again.

Took my dad for a father’s day meal, didn’t know what to expect as never been. found the staff welcoming and friendly food was superb and portions good value for money had the beef and Yorkshire pub, but pretty sure i had half a cow on the plate, the beef melted on the mouth

My husband and I used to stop here for a meal now and again en route to the northeast or on the way home.. The former landlady, Judith, was so warm and welcoming and their homemade steak pie with shortcrust pastry absolutely delicious, with lots of beef chunks in rich gravy.....We stopped by today and everything had changed..New landlords, not as friendly, and the steak pie had a puff pastry and less meat with a thin gravy..I had to ask for more as some pieces were dryish.. We were very disappointed and doubt that we will go back..What a shame..(they even changed the rich, gold lettering outside, replacing it with some grayish white letters!)

Quiet during the week, just what I like. Nice terrace to sit out on in the evening sun and good ale.

Great village pub, very friendly landlords, the food was very tasty and served quick, will definitely be visiting again in the very near future.

Lovely evening last night. The food was delicious and a warm wonderful service. We really enjoyed our evening. Thank you so much.

I visited the Gold Cup Inn after locdown restrictions allowed. They have installed a Marquee in the garden for outside dining. The new couple were very welcoming and the food was lovely. I understand one of the couple is the chef and the other front of house, seemingly working well. We had the steak pie, it was a PROPA pie, base and all! My other half had the Parmo..... i understand this is a nothern dish? Anyway it was really nice. Local ale on Draught too, just what you needed after lock down. This is a vast improvement on our last visit and we wish them the best of luck and see you soon. Definatley worth a visit!

Grabbed a drink after a long walk and had nothing to complain about, good beer and prompt service. Had a very nice day to sit outside for a drink as well.

Love this cosy village pub, great food too

I had an evening meal and a drink in this pub whilst I was staying in a B&B in the area. The food was lovely, plentiful and well cooked. Plus a good selection of ale! Prices were very reasonable. I would recommend this pub.

Having booked for Sunday lunch, we weren’t disappointed the meal was lovely and plentiful We opted to stay for a while after and the children played in the beer garden. However, the main thing that spoilt the whole visit for us was the amount of people stood in the doorway and just outside the door smoking and swearing. Our children were walking through this every time they entered or exited as we had too and the colourful language they used was something else. Appreciating you cannot choose your clientele I mentioned it to another gentleman who informed me they are locals and two of them stand there all the time!! The sheer amount of cigarette ends outside seemed to confirm this. Certainly off putting for me and not something I wish to subject my family too, so I won’t be returning. A smoking shelter would possibly be a better idea, rather than the main entrance and porch.

Delicious Sunday Roast for £10. Unpretentious and great food.

This is. a local country pub with excellent food. I have been a few times and have never been disappointed..

Very good place to go for lunch and dinner

Lovely cask ale, which was great after a long hike. Really must return to sample some more and the extensive food menu.

Nice friendly place good food and company

Nice wee pub can't wait to try the food

Such a friendly country pub with reasonable prices and very generous portion sizes. Sunday lunch is particularly good!

Very dependable. Good food and efficient staff. Always popular. Chris

Absolutely brilliant if I could give 10 stars I would.

Excellent food good beer and 1st class service

I come every week good traditional pub and restaurant, with the locals who are always up for a good laugh

Placed in a lovely village, great garden for drinking outside, a great break when walking the Silton 👍🍻

Ok so my score is based on the food. We visited here for the first time for Sunday lunch following the reviews and being 5 rated. The pub is set in a pretty village and the staff were very friendly but the food was really not great and we may have just hit it on a bad day. The best part of the Sunday lunch was the cauliflower cheese this was very good. All in all we have tried it unfortunately won’t be returning.

Another recommendation which turned out a winner. A recent visit for Sunday Lunch was rewarded by plentiful, good quality food served on hot plates, always a good sign. The beer on offer was well kept and the wines good too. A warm and welcoming environment added to the experience and the bill, at the end, was very reasonable indeed. Definitely a place to return to.

Superb food as always, cannot find better anywhere around the area. Always hot, very tasty and set out perfectly on white linen table cloths. Very friendly pub with very friendly host ( Julie ) who cannot do enough for you. Really cannot praise it highly enough, in our opinion its simply the best.

Best Sunday roast for a long time 1 to visit

Great place with great food and atmosphere

fab as usual lovely evening sat outside enjoying beautiful sunshine

Visited yet again and was not disappointed . Lovely food , good service and very welcoming. Called in early doors and got in straight away .

Mi marido y yo vamos allí muy a menudo para comer el domingo y que es sin duda la mejor comida alrededor. Los anfitriones, mesas maravillosamente encantador ubicado en un bonito y limpio pub acogedor y rústico. La comida siempre es caliente, como debe ser, la carne sólo se desmenuza perfectamente y más que razonable. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente a cualquiera que tiene buen gusto.

Un pub encantador en un precioso pueblo en una parte preciosa de North Yorkshire. Así como la primera Domingo almuerzos ya mencionado en otros comentarios, muchos lo hacen muy buena variedad de comidas caseras (Favoritos de siempre). Las patatas fritas adecuada 'son deliciosos y noche tarta miércoles no te la puedes perder! Acompañados por la mano bien cuidada barril, servicio amable, fuego y una decoración agradable hacen de este un firme favorito en nuestro libro. Sólo deseo que vivimos más cerca!

Llamado para comer el domingo sin reserva, pero fueron recibidos a sentarse en el bar para comer. Esta bien como la habitación es preciosa, el fuego y sentí cálida y acogedora en un húmedo y miserable día fuera. Todo bien hasta que llegó la comida y una de las porciones de sopa era poco más que tibia, este fue devuelto a la cocina, lamentablemente no se disculparon y el reemplazo tomó unos 20 minutos para llegar (tras otra visita al bar para recordarles) pero esta vez el resto del grupo había terminado su entrantes. Entonces esperamos y esperamos y esperamos para el plato principal y finalmente preguntó de nuevo cuando pueda ser servida, la respuesta fue porque había enviado la sopa volver tenían entonces ido a para servir a la gente que habíamos reservado! De nuevo ninguna disculpa.Fue una pena, ya que el plato principal era fabuloso, caliente, deliciosa comida con mucha variedad y cantidad de verduras frescas y carne salsa extra, precioso.Prácticamente nos fuimos con la impresión de que preferían para servir a los clientes asiduos y no improvisada

Este pequeño y precioso pub es un favorito de mi familia que viven en la zona. Visité por primera vez a finales del año pasado (sólo acabo de escribir mi comentario lo siento) con mi padre y madre para comer el domingo.Es un pueblo pintoresco y tranquilo, si no sabía que estaba ahí probablemente nunca encontrar y estará perdiendo enormemente. El pub es cálido y acogedor, con unos anfitriones encantadores que son amables y eficientes.La comida era deliciosa y típicamente enormes porciones de Yorkshire, pero era todo por la calidad en lugar de cantidad. Tuve la carne y era extremadamente sabroso y cocinado a la perfección. Mis padres tenían cordero y a juzgar por el hecho de que todos los platos estaban vacíos, diría que todo el mundo era feliz. Una gran variedad de postres caseros deliciosos que estábamos demasiado lleno para considerarmi tío y tía recientemente trasladado a la región y también se convierte en la Gold Cup, así que puedo recomendar este maravilloso lugar para la comida servida por un personal genial en un entorno muy agradable

We were recommended here for Sunday lunch I wondered where we were going at first as down roads I'd never seen before but it was definately worth the drive amazing Sunday lunch 7 different Vegetables meat lovely and tender will definately be back

La Gold Cup es un lugar en el que sabían que existían desde las señales en A19 pero nunca nos aventuramos en hasta hoy, y lo que un lugar fantástico! El personal y los lugareños maravillosamente amable, buena comida, y quiero decir excelente comida y servicio. Sin duda volveremos por más

Have just returned home after our first visit here for sunday lunch.We couldn't praise it enough ,meat and many vegetables were hot and well cooked ,have'nt had a sunday lunch as good in a long time .Waitress was helpful and friendly ,we will be returning in the very near future.

No me puedo creer que he vivido en la zona tan largo y nunca he visitado la copa de oro antes. Una bienvenida cálida bienvenida nuestra llegada seguido de una excelente comida de los domingos. Todo cocinado a la perfección en barbaridad. El clima no era el mejor, pero estoy seguro que la ubicación tendrá unas vistas fantásticas en verano ... una visita indispensable ... volveré pronto.

Hemos estado aquí varias veces con nuestros hijos durante el almuerzo de domingo. El menú es bueno y a un precio muy razonable. Me alegro de que no tienen los principiantes, ya que los tamaños de las porciones eran muy grandes. Una gran selección de verduras de temporada. Los niños lo pollo y papas fritas, que no estaba en el menú. Nada es demasiado problema aquí. Comida muy sabrosa y mucha salsa extra! Te hacen sentir como en casa.

We happened across this pub whilst travelling home after visiting amount Grace Priory. The pub was signposted off the A19 heading south.I was craving a Sunday Roast and this pub certainly didn't disappoint. The pub offers a good selection for Sunday lunch. It was excellent value at £7.95. I had roast pork, stuffing, crackling. It came with a massive selection of sides too. Mashed potato, carrot & suede mash, cauliflower cheese, selection of vegetables and extra gravy.The decor is that of a typical village pub and it is obviously the hub of the village. It was lovely to see. I would definitely recommend a trip here.
