The Half Moon in Leeds

Food was spot on and delicious. Then a dog arrived and was immediately petted by at least three members of staff. No hand sanitation or washing . Glasses of water and food served . A big no no . Such a shame after the good standard of food but we will not be returning. J

We are always on the lookout for pubs that do really good food. This pub was recommended by a friend. It was our first visit, it’s unlikely to be our last! Nice village, Friendly staff, quick efficient service, good beer & great food. The pub is basically 1 bar, it does get a little noisy, so perhaps not the place for a quiet romantic night out. But if you want a good honest meal in a decent pub, this is certainly one to try. We shall return!

Booked for 9 of us to eat on a Wednesday evening - the place was packed which immediately suggests it is very good - we were not disappointed - the food and selection of drinks was excellent and the staff were most friendly and helpful. The evening was really enjoyed by all of us

Visited for Sunday lunch with my Mum and couldn't have been more impressed - the surroundings and staff were welcoming and the Roast Beef lunch was absolutely superb. The beef was served pink and there was loads of it and they certainly don't skimp on the veg portions either - then to top it off, you get your own personal gravy boat. Washed down with a decent pint of Black Sheep, the whole experience was great from start to finish - highly recommended and will visit again.

Went with my family for a minor celebration. Sadly my wife's pan fried chicken was so overcooked that is was hard and virtually inedible, her complaint was met with "I'm very sorry", nothing more. I texted this to the Half Moon but my complaint was not acknowledged. This is a shame because in the past we have had some very nice meals there.

This is a pleasant pub and the staff were welcoming and helpful. But our lunch had - across the 5 of us - variable (and some distinctly disappointing) food, especially for the price.

This is an excellent pub/restaurant for family and friends. The meals are always cooked to perfection. The staff are friendly and very attentive.

From the moment I walked in until the moment I walked out faultless. Staff were courteous helpful friendly and efficient. I had nut roast with roast dinner one of the tastiest meals I have ever eaten. The food was not just good it was superb. Everything form Roast potatoes to Yorkshire Pudding and especially the Vegetables were cooked just right not overcooked. Would have loved a dessert but I was stuffed! Enjoyed it with a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc nice and crisp and dry. For a Large Wine and a more than ample meal I thought £30.40 was excellent value. It was extremely busy deservedly so, yet the service was excellent obviously enough staff to meet the needs of the very popular venue. I shall return!

Fantastic pub, wonderful staff, food outstanding and the just perfect experience. Will definitely return and thanks for great hospitality 👍

Our party of 6 visited this attractive and busy country pub for the first time. In addition to typical roasts (£15.95) we ordered steak pies (£14.95) and haddock and chips (£14.95) . Apple crumble, cheesecake and panna cotta, all £6.25, finished the perfect sunday lunch. Service was a little slow but otherwise efficient.

Fantastic meal, had the most perfect Sunday roast here today with friends and family. The food and service were second to none.. Definitely heading back soon! Thankyou

Absolutely brilliant service and food in a cosy atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Brilliant value for such good quality food. Extra mention to Marcus who took good care of my son with food allergies and made sure he had a delicious meal that was safe for him. It is sadly unusual to find a restaurant that is this careful with allergies, whilst still offering a decent choice. Would highly recommend. We will be back x

Literally one of the finest meals my wife and i have had. Service was fantastic and friendly. Food was amazing. I would highly recommend this place. Im just sorry I found it so late into my trip.

Must put pen to paper about the brilliant night we had on Thursday at the Half Moon. It was steak night which is ridiculously good value at £40. Two steaks & a bottle of wine, superb. The steaks was excellently cooked so tender just as...

Living near York, you are limited as to where to go out, on an evening, with a teenage daughter. The Half Moon has become her favourite place to go. Great young team of staff who are friendly, fun and happy to help out with requests...gluten...

Absolutely great pub! Food is spot on, the staff are super friendly expecially the manager and the lady who was behind the bar. Great music not too loud so you can eat and chat away easily. Great atmosphere and some of the cheapest drink around!...

Fabulous steak night . X2 fillet steaks cooked to perfection with a sauce of your choice and home made proper chips including a bottle of wine . All for £40 . Lovely staff and buzzing atmosphere. Cant get better for miles around.

Visited here as a family of 6 for a birthday meal. I booked on the phone through the manager and nothing was too much hassle! We arrived and were seated to our table and to our surprise there was a birthday balloon on our table....

The half moon is well worth a visit. Never had a bad meal. Steak nights (Wednesday and Thursdays) £40 for 2 steaks with good selection of sauces (Stilton and garlic are my personal favourite) normal menu still available on steak nights and again food is...

Visited here with family for their steak night. Previous visits it was £35 for 2 steaks and a bottle of wine, this visit it was £40. Upon arrival, it wasn’t a pleasant welcome or friendly staff it was take a seat and I’ll come take...

Great food, could of had some happier staff. The website said the pub closed at 11pm. When I tried to buy another drink at 10 past 10 the bar tender informed us tat they closed at 10pm. This was a Saturday night. This was without...

Just been to the Jubilee celebration dinner at the Half Moon and what a triumph. From start to finish, nothing short of spectacular. I think the new chef is about to add the Half Moon to the map of best gastro pubs in East Yorkshire.

We belong to a local car club and 8 of us called in for a meal on Saturday afternoon, we were also checking the place out for future meetings/meals etc… My husband and I used to visit the pub a few years ago when we...

If you walk into a pub mid-week on spec and it is brimming with life you can be certain they are doing something right. We went to their Steak Night on Wednesday and returned Thursday for their other steak night. The 2 steak meals and...

Heard lots of good things about this place, decided to give it a try on Sat just gone, early evening. We got a lovely greeting and soon had a drinks order taken. We had booked a table and were shown to one in the corner....

One of the best Sunday dinners I have had in a long time! I had the pork shoulder roast, it was cooked to perfection and came with delicious sides including cauliflower cheese. The staff were friendly and service was great!

Excellent food with a very good choice on the menu . Very friendly staff make it an enjoyable experience. It’s definitely on the go back to list.

Stopped for a quick bite and they managed to fit us in despite being booked up. Food was good quality - steak night meal includes a bottle of house wine and the white wine was surprisingly good. Staff are very accommodating.

Had a fantastic Sunday afternoon here with my family . I couldn’t have picked anywhere better for a birthday get together. The food was first class thanks to a great chef !and all the staff were very pleasant and nothing was a chore . What...

Lovely meal! Visited on Sunday evening- had the roasts and they were all really well cooked and tasty. Particular compliments for how perfectly the beef was cooked. Yorkshire pudding was great and children’s roast was really generous. We also had starters and some of the...

A decent enough venue with nice tables and friendly service. My food was okay and ordered the steak and ale pie with chips. Not too pleased by the vegetarian food when the Sunday nut roast was ordered. After ordering my wife wanted to ensure that...

This little pub is a gem. The food was awesome, the venue is clean and very welcoming. The staff are friendly and attentive. We have visited before and will certainly be back again. Best British pub visited in a long time.

Been in many times for meals during the week or a Sunday. Food is always fantastic. Great range of beers and lagers . Staff always cheerful and can’t do enough to make your Experience even more enjoyable

I'd never been to this pub before but won a £30 meal voucher on Minster FM so it would have been rude not to give it a go!! So glad I did. I went with a friend on a Tuesday night. We were welcomed by...

Lovely meal with Yorkshire pud for a non meat eater and my omnivore friends. Fished off with an interesting gin tonic and classic creme brûlée

I came back to try the new menu items and loved them! The satay chicken was the best I’d had and the homemade brownie was perfect! Couldn’t recommend it more!

Lets start with how phenomenal the food is! 8 of us made a reservation and ordered lasagnes, fish&chips and cajun chicken. It was definitely the best pub food we have ever eaten, thank you to the chef that took good care for those of us...

First time at this pub for a meal and we was not disappointed Good selection on menu Staff friendly and helpful. Good service and value for money Will be back

Great food along with a good selection of Yorkshire beers. Service was 1st class and the prices are not over the top. A wonderful place to eat. Slightly posh, but a very welcoming service.

Went recently for an excellent meal on Saturday. One of party a card carrying veggie. She was very pleased with vegetarian offerings. Us carivirs enjoyed our meals too. Went this week for their steak midweek offer. Exceptional value with fillet steaks and a bottle of...

Went for the steak night special once again not disappointed very good value staff very friendly.Will be back

Our first visit to the Half Moon. The surroundings were pleasant and the service friendly and helpful. The Lamb Kofta starter, the burger and finally the Chocolate Brownie were all excellent. The portions were plentiful. Certainly worth a return visit … very, very soon!

Can’t recommend this pub enough, the food is absolutely brilliant, steak cooked to perfection and so so tasty, generous helpings, prices very reasonable, happy friendly staff. What more could you want, try it, you won’t be disappointed.

We’d been before and had a pretty decent meal but this last one was very disappointing. We went for a Sunday roast and the meat was over cooked, the Yorkshire pudding was burnt and the “roast” potatoes had been deep fried. The service was also...

Good food, pleasant staff, nice surroundings, nothing too much trouble .Lunches only at weekends and you would need to ring to make sure space is available. The only downside is the lack of toilet faciliteis only 2 toilets in total

Booked for Father's Day, arrived early for our table which was no problem. Fantastic sunday dinner with enormous yorkshire puddings! The "Everything But the Meat" was great for me as a veggie. The meat eaters enjoyed their beef too, nice thick slices. Will definitely return...

Beautiful place sunday lunch was fantastic service good and meal brilliant. Price was very good . Highly recommended well done all

Visited on March 20th for our 20th Wedding Anniversary. We decided to go here at the last minute, and had not reserved a table. Whilst arriving early before 7pm we managed to get a table, by 8pm the place was nearly full with a great...

Pub very good, decor fine, The staff very helpful and friendly. The food was excellent and plentyful.

My wife and I have just lunched at the Half Moon and it was highly evident that the food is of the high standard that Stavros has delivered in the many establishments where he has been employed over a career spanning many years. I enjoyed...

Popped in for a pint on the way home. Only the second time I had been in. As soon as I entered, I was hit with a lovely smell. The place was full of happy people eating. Sat myself at the bar and ordered a...

70 of us, yes 70, gathered for a Christmas get-together and catch up. The venue in this little village between York and Hull has been recently extended and refurbished so there was plenty of room for us all. The food was superb and the atmosphere...

We were staying close to Newton on Derwent with friends for a kid free weekend and decided to walk to the village and visit the Half Moon. The pub is quite modern inside and has a good selection of beers lagers and ciders on tap...

Really lovely pub, nicely decorated in fresh gastro-pub way. Open and spacious feel but cost at same time. Menu options such as steak nights and 2 meals for £15 which we had. Good sized portions and nicely cooked so excellent value for money. Staff friendly....

We looked at the menus of a few places in the area and chose the half moon as we preferred the look of their menu the most , arrived at around 8pm were given a warm welcome as soon as we walked in the bar...

First time eating here food was delicious we just couldn't fault it. Background music was unobtrusive and was the selection of songs was the best ever

We read the reviews and decided to book for Saturday evening. There were only 2 other tables occupied for food. We were originally seated next to the kitchen, but had to move due to the greasy smell. We ordered from the menu (a choice of...

Had a lovely meal and the waiter was lovely. Food was great and reasonably priced and would really recommend.

From arriving we were made very welcome and all the staff were most helpful including waitress, bar man who I think was the manager or owner and the chef. The food was very good in quantity, quality and presentation and cooked to perfection with a...

I really want to love this pub as it is local to me. Sadly it seems to operate according to what the owners/chef feel like doing. We've turned up on Fridays before to find it shut despite it saying in the website they serve food...

We'd intended just having a bar snack from the extensive online menu, only to find upon arrival that the menu was at least a year out of date and our choices weren't available. In spite of this I've given them full marks as, after a...

We booked Tuesday evening and were really pleased that we did! Only 7 miles from York and set in a lovely village. We were welcomed with a warm greeting at the door and taken to our table by a very polite young man. Prompt and...

All four of us had excellent meals in lovely surroundings. The steaks were just right and sea bass excellent. The hand pulled beers are well kept.

If you're looking for a well-kept, friendly pub that serves great food in a village setting, visit the Half Moon. Both pub and waiting staff were attentive and amiable. I recommend the steak and ale pie and I know my husband loved the cookie dough...

Although the pub web site clearly states it is open on Friday lunchtimes, it doesn't, at least not on Fri 3 Mar. When we arrived, the place was in darkness and another couple were trying the door. We tried to phone but no reply, definitely...

The Half Moon is relatively local and in need of a Sunday lunch three of us popped in after reading the positive reviews on TA. Opinions were divided on the experience but here is a balanced view. We all agreed that the decor and interior...
