The Half Moon Inn Restaurant in East Riding of Yorkshire

Lovely dog friendly place. Food prepared and presented well.

Our second visit to The Half moon. And once again it didn't fail to please. We sat in a different area. Still the atmosphere was relaxing and warming. All the staff are so friendly. The service is fantastic. We could tell what a well run place this is. Very efficient. The food is of high quality. I had the turkey Sunday dinner, the turkey wasn't dry and just melted with eat bite. Just perfect. My husband had the beef dinner. Also cooked to perfection and plenty of roasties, veg, homemade Yorkshire pudding and gravy to complement these. My son just wanted bar snacks of chicken goujions and cheesy fries. These came homemade goujions and generous portion of both. An extensive drinks menu. I just wish I could have squeezed in a plumb crumble. This has definitely become our favourite pub.

Really good place. Good food and friendly staff. Would recommend the burger and the sticky toffee pudding. Both excellent.

A regular favourite - so welcoming and friendly, great food and hospitality

Absolutely beautiful place. Lovely staff. Very helpful. I spilt my wine before a sip and immediately cleared up and gave me a free one. Made me feel comfortable not embarrassed .Amazing food and extensive food and wine menu. Top quality food. Would highly recommend definitely.

Good value for money two fillets and a bottle of wine best stake in the area

Loverly place. But you have to look for it.

Brilliant pub and the Sunday lunch was gorgeous.

Brilliant recommend anyone going there!!

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!

Nice village pub the food was good and easy to access.

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

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.

Great relaxed, friendly pub. Staff are lovely. Food is some of the best I’ve had. Never had a bad meal with Zeki the lovely chef. I take my disabled child who is also a wheelchair user and they’re always great with him. One of my favourite places.

Lovely pub in beautiful small village near York. Warm and friendly welcome, well kept real ale and a delicious menu, with the emphasis on quality local produce. A good range of choices, including some interesting specials. The steak for two deal is exceptionally good value and rightly popular. Genuinely dog friendly too (in spite of some barbed comments from an intolerant visitor on a nearby table). Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Few pints outside on a sunny day. Nice pub with good service

Came for steak night hubbies had steak and my husband said it was the best steak ever melt in your mouth. I shared the fish platter starter plus extra temp prawns. OMG fantastic loved it and full. Thank you for fab food we loved it

A great stop for dinner on the way home after a day of walking with our two babies. Staff were attentive and helpful. Food was good, garlic bread with lasagne wasn't great - but such a minor issue. No baby change facilities, because of size of the pub - but I was shown upstairs to a bedroom which has been prepared for me to change my baby. A definite recommendation.

We had a lovely Sunday dinner at the Half Moon. Absolutely brilliant to see a team of young people running the whole show and doing a fabulous job of it. Welcome, food, drinks and service all first class. No idea where the landlords were - maybe cooking in the back? 🤔

What a gem. All the staff are amazing and the food... well I had the roast lamb and it was divine. Just amazing place🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Nice little pub. Food was excellent and well priced, great portion sizes everything tasted fresh. Staff were very friendly, service was great.

Great find, had amazing meal. Wife and son had Steak offer for 2 , £45 for 2 fillet steaks , all trimmings and a bottle of house wine. Both said steaks cooked perfectly(med/Rare)and wine good. I had Chicken and Tarragon Pie, superb. Staff great friendly and chatty

Great staff, reasonable location and parking, comfortable bar area - but disappointingly variable food. The soup was reported as tasty. The pies had good filling but, judging by the texture of the pastry, they had probably been microwaved. The chips were stodgy and not very hot. The desserts were bland. We enjoyed our visit because we were having a good catch-up and the staff took excellent care of us; but 'gastro' it wasn't.

Fantastic Sunday lunch in the sun, brilliant 👏

Excellent sirloin steak well cooked .

fantastic food only out done by the waiting staff.

Very busy gastro pub frequented by locals and those from further afield. Great atmosphere, great staff, fantastic food and reasonably priced.

Lovely food friendly polite staff, lovely birthday meal.

Very nice pub full of people eating and chatting. Very nice, wish I had gotten food there

Nice food and a good pint. The staff are nice and friendly. A typical local North Yorkshire pub!

The Half Moon Inn is a nice country pub. There is a good choice of beers, lager and cider including two hand pulled cask conditioned real ales. The cask ale was in excellent condition when we visited. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. It is mainly a food pub there are no bar games. There is outside seating at the front of the pub and a beer garden at the back. The pub is featured in the camra good beer guide and is dog friendly.

The Half Moon has Steak Night for two on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Steak (sirloin or fillet) with a choice of sauces, tomato, chips, onion ring and mushroom, together with an excellent bottle of house red for a total price of £45. It was one of the best steaks we’ve had. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The chef himself came to ask how it was. The cuisson of the steaks was perfect. We’re definitely going to come again!

Had the roast lamb dinner, added some turkey to to it as well. Beautiful roast dinner, fresh, hot and didn't have to wait long before our food arrived! Great service too! 👏

A friend and I who now live at opposite ends of the country met here on Friday night as we were both at the same event held locally the following day. We stayed for several drinks a dinner. Good food, good selection of drinks and a warm welcome in a lovely pub. Well worth a visit.

First visit, absolutely lovely! Great staff, lovely decor and prompt polite service! Roast beef/roast turkey great, plenty of veggies top puddings! Desert cheese cake/sticky toffee both wonderful.will definitely return,in fact we are going next month - ohhh get me with my fancy dining trips out! Top notch!

Such a great pub. The food is fantastic and the staff will do everything in their power to help make the experience as good as possible for you. Lovely atmosphere with a great mix of songs and customers from locals to people who travel just for the Sunday roasts and steak nights. Manager is great and tries to make everyone’s lunch/evening special.

The food is the shining star of this establishment. The pub classics are very well executed. The Steak Pie and Beer-battered Fish and Chips are the stand-outs for me personally. The staff are great too. The maître d' is very attentive and clearly loves the place and his role. The other staff were super friendly and helpful also. The setting is lovely and the building was clean. It's fun spotting the famous stars of yesteryear on the walls. We sat next to Janis Joplin at Woodstock. There was a short period where multiple large groups all coalesced and it was very loud. I'm not sure how the staff could have avoided that though. Great meal.

Wonderful food and service, if you'd prefer a quiet meal perhaps request a table away from the TV as the sports supporters can be very excitable 😊

Really nice atmosphere and really friendly staff

I’ve been going to this pub for a couple of years and the food has been exceptional with Zeiki until recently the food has gone down hill with the new chefs. The staff are excellent and service is brilliant but unfortunately the food is not what it used to be might give it a miss for a while which is a shame because we used to go in several times a month for food hopefully they will resolve this problem. When Zeiki is in though it’s 5*

As ever, great food and warm cosy atmosphere.

Delicious Sunday lunch with turkey option this month. Homemade gravy, not a granule in sight and tasty potatoes, red cabbage, parsnips etc. Loved it

Our conservation group celebrated Christmas and our 30th anniversary with an excellent lunch for 16 of us in n the Half Moon. Marcus and his team were very welcoming and we enjoyed a range of dishes from the menu. The pies, fish and chips and sea bass were all cooked well and nicely presented, while the desserts were very tempting. Everybody commented that they would go back separately.

Food was lovely, place was lovely and staff were kind friendly. Were busy as to be expected on a Saturday night but still a great service just slightly slower than expected when booked in advanced and weren't a walk in .would recommend to and would go back just can't give 5 stars as not perfect .

Absolutely fantastic place! Highly recommended. Food to die for, warm and cosy, friendly staff and all for a very reasonable price! A must if you're in the area!!!

Very nice food and the service was brilliant 👏 👌 will be coming back again

Two filet steaks with garnish, chips and a lovely sauce of your choice, a bottle of house wine, £40 ! Absolutely brilliant! Great service , good beers, lovely dining room, you just can't fault it. Highly recommended, we will be back soon. Thank you.

Dropped in here after a day visiting York. Beautiful, appealing pub, All the staff were friendly and polite. The place had a wonderful warm atmosphere. Food was fabulous. Would definitely recommend a visit here. Wish we lived closer as this would be our go to local! 5 stars from us!

Had Sunday lunch here with family - warm welcome and efficient service, perfect seating location and exceptional food - lamb dinner, turkey dinner, nut roast and no meat alternatives. Delicious desserts! Will definitely come again!

Celebrating a family birthday. Nine adults three children. Sunday afternoon. Running a bit late with food but hey ho that is not a big problem just another drink. Table ready one of the couples has a prior appointment so their order was taken first and put through with the children's order, took no time at all so happy bunnies. The menu was very extensive for a Sunday lunch time so a lot of decisions to be made. Best to browse on line before you go. Starters half of the adults went for garlic mushrooms the other half prawn cocktail. Mains divided between the lamb beef and steak and ale pie. The starters portion was big enough for a main course, I had the prawn cocktail (well it was Sunday) it was absolutely gorgeous with fresh warm bread. The garlic mushrooms also looked ample and they were served also with a chunk of warm bread for dunking. wow. I had the roast lamb for mains served with Yorkshire pudding, fresh veg, roast potatoes ,fantastic gravy and of course the mint sauce. Then it was do we have enough room left for desert. Of course we do bring them on. I shared my vanilla crème Brule with a chocolate brownie just to compare for next time both absolutely gorgeous. The beer was spot on and several were quaffed and the red wine was second to none, but the taxi driver wouldn't let us take the rest of the wine home opened. All in all it was a fantastic afternoon in a splendid pub with very nice people. The landlord and lady were excellent the bar staff knew exactly what we had ordered previously and the chef and service staff were amazing. Can't wait to get back for another family treat.

Amazing food. Very busy place but service was excellent Great range of drinks and a takeaway Sunday dinner that was delicious

Sampled the steak night which was absolutely fantastic. Top quality food and great value. The veggie options were delicious too. Lovely atmosphere in the dining room and great service. Can't wait to return.

Myself and my other half picked this pub after one we were planning on eating at was shut. It turned out that it was one of their two steak nights. Two steaks and a bottle of wine for £40. The steaks were cooked to perfection, the portion sizes were bang on and the food came out very quickly. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly. Since neither of us drink alcohol, we asked if it was possible to get the drinks for free instead of the bottle of wine. We had 2 rounds of juice and to our surprise the second round was free too! The dessert was delicious and we left feeling we had a good quality meal at a bargain price. Would 100% recommend.

Great gastro pub. Good food and friendly staff. Relaxing atmosphere and consistently good food.

A brilliant place for a family meal. Staff not phased at all by our rather loud family and friends party, everything really efficient and just well run. And the food is glorious - the substantial fish platter was incredible and the local steak to die for. Really impressive for a pub to cross over so far into restaurant and still have that gorgeous pub atmosphere. Bravo.

The Kindling Club were treated to a wonderful night at The Half Moon, superb friendly staff and hospitality. The Beer, Tetleys was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed a great atmosphere, and look forward to our next visit.

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere, great drinks. We'll return. Thanks.

Nice little pub with great food. The steak night is to be highly recommend. The portions are decent but not so large that you don’t have room for dessert. Because the pub is closed Monday and Tuesday getting booked can sometimes prove a little tricky so look to book a week in advance. Reasonable prices for such quality food.

Lovely place, perfectly cooked steak, even on a very popular steak night, which if places are busy this can be hard to do. We have booked to go again. Great chips. Great service.

We were staying at florida keys holiday park. And there was a menu in the lodge so we booked a table for Sunday lunch, we got there early and got served straight away we sat in the garden, Food was quick we got leg of lamb roast and it was absolutely delicious 😋 best Sunday lunch iv had, bursting with flavour! Thankyou

Lovely Sunday lunch. They serve the roast beef nice and pink. Big portions and decent prices.

We went there during our 2-night stay in Sutton upon Derwent and took advantage of their steak night which they have on Wednesdays and Thursdays. It did not disappoint! Everything from the starters down to the dessert was absolutely delicious and my husband and I both enjoyed everything immensely. We had the scallops and garlic mushrooms for starters, the fillet and sirloin steaks for mains and shared the brownie for dessert, which was a good decision as it was a big portion and would have been to much if we had a dessert each. The bar area is dog friendly so we were able to bring our little Archie. Make sure to book a table as it did get quite busy just as we were leaving at just after 7pm (table was booked for 6pm - so service was quick too!) We didn't go for the wine and they were happy to give us an alternative for our first round of drinks. The staff were also very attentive and friendly despite being quite busy. 100% would recommend this place and would love to go back if we ever come back around this area again ❤️ Didn't get to take photos of the starters as we were so excited to eat them when they arrived. And took a photo of the brownie halfway through eating it. 😅

Fantastic meal at a reasonable price,staff were very attentive, would highly recommend

Lovely pub, amazing food. Service good until they started cleaning up round us.

Our first visit, first impressions were the decor was smart and pleasant. the food was home Cooked and well presented and there served proper taste chips. the restaurant manager was charming . A pleasant experience, highly recommend, will definitely be going again.

Lovely pub, excellent food and fast service. The menu is varied and prices are reasonable. The food came quickly and was restaurant quality. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the music was a fabulous eclectic mix. Great experience.

Super public house which really is worth a visit. Great quality food and drink served by friendly, efficient staff. Make sure you’re hungry when you visit, portion sizes are generous.

Great food, attentive staff, and good value. What's not to like? We'll be back.

Brilliant have past word of mouth lovely place it will be great on summer nights and days out

Excellent 5'stars. Food delicious and service first class..

Excellent food excellent service cannot fault! Perfect stop.off for a Sunday dinner

Very friendly staff. Clean and comfy pub. Good atmosphere. Home cooked meals!!

Fantastic meal, good atmosphere. Staff very welcoming and friendly.

A lovely pub with friendly service and excellent food. Will definitely return when we visit this quaint little village again!

We live in the village and frequent our ‘local’ for food and drinks on a regular basis and we think that Marcus and the team are fantastic. Sunday lunch today was superb. Thanks.

Best place for food in the area, really friendly staff with really well kept cask ales on offer. Will definitely be returning soon.

Fantastic meal, starter garlic mushrooms, main course fish and chips, the fish was huge and perfectly cooked. Would definitely visit again, but would not eat for a couple of days before I visited. Top notch 👍

Great village pub that is dog friendly. If you haven't tried their steak night (every Wed & Thurs) you don't know what you are missing - unless you are a vegetarian of course - absolutely outstanding deal!

Possibly one of the nicest Sunday dinners my partner and I have had in years. On arrival we were greeted and shown to our table. Lovely old style pub but with lots of newer features too with well-kept light-wood tables. Nice ambiance to the place, and staff were friendly and attentive but not overbearing. My partner and I both decided on the Sunday dinner; him the beef, and me the lamb. It came quite quickly which was a surprise as they were quite busy. It made me think it might all be pre-prepared and quickly reheated. How wrong I was. There was absolutely nothing that I could fault about this meal; everything was piping hot, the roast potatoes had a lovely crispy and a right-amount-of-fat finish, carrot and mash mixture was a beautiful taste, lamb was so tender, and the yorkie pud was just the right size - not one of these 2 foot high ones that looks great but tastes awful! Cauliflower cheese was rich in texture, and all the vegetables were cooked perfectly. Just the right amount of food too, nothing wasted but didn’t feel bloated. Would definitely come here again without a doubt , and hopefully bring the whole family

95 quid for 6 shwarma giro wraps, I have actually picked more meat out of my back tooth was nice but portions for nearly 100 quid was atrocious, never again we having corned beef and cheese toasties now in our lodge because we starving not good culinary skills tbh avoid 100%

Excellent food and very helpful attentive staff.

We went for an evening meal, lovely place, friendly staff, and great food, will be returning soon.

Lovely village pub definitely recommend We went on a Thursday evening -2 fillet steaks and a decent bottle of Red plus a sauce each of your choice £40 which we thought was good value. Good choice of ales and lagers.

Never had a bad meal here, the atmosphere is great and the staff are friendly and welcoming, will be back again soon

Fantastic food and service. Very much enjoyed the pork belly main course and the chocolate brownie was delicious. My only problem was that I couldn't finish it!

We stumbled across the place on a Sunday and the food and drinks were excellent

the food is the best I've ever had and the service is extremely good. an absolute diamond of a find, we will definitely come back when we're up next time

On our way back down from York to the south of England we made a stop for lunch at this nice Inn. We loved the nice ambiance and friendly waiter. The food was great. I suspect it will be very busy at dinner time as I wouldn't be surprised if this place is very much liked by the locals.

Really nice place, staff and food

Food was very good, but it was a very noisy pub with TV blasting out. We were moved to another table but was just as bad. Also we were billed for 2 extra meals.

Came here as we was at a nearby lodge, walked here for a few drinks the Saturday and came back for Sunday lunch the day after. Reserved the table and we was greeted and shown to our table. Fabulous food, quick service! Had the football on, racing and rugby as the pub catered for everyone. Lovely little village pub!

Food, atmosphere and the staff were amazing!

Nice grub, service a little slow but we were in a big group.

Lovely place. Great food and drinks. Extremely friendly and helpful staff

Went to half moon for 2nd time for lunch/dinner. The food is amazing!! Belly pork is to die for. Really nice friendly staff. Lovely warm atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Friendly atmosphere with excellent service. Great pub.

Very friendly and food is excellent x

Called in for refreshments following a bit of a walk. Nice outside facilities front and rear and the staff were welcoming and attentive. Typical pub-type food choices but being mid afternoon we just wanted something to keep us going so settled for 2 x starters. The pate was delicious with a cranberry pickle to add a piquant tang and my baked camembert was delightful with warm Italian bread and Chilli sauce and balsamic and olive oil dips. Be warned if you go for a full meal as the starters are really substantial! Definately want to go back to sample the slow roasted pork belly.....!
