We booked a table & where we pleased we did. Arrived to find a very busy bar area where you eat when have an accompanying dog. A little small for regulars,dogs & eating area. Table was set on our arrival. Food was amazing 4 of us & all different meals each one beautifully cooked & presented. Short wait but for fresh cooked food to be expected. Sweets where also nice. Staff friendly pleasant & polite. The down side was vaping allowed in bar where food served

We met up with friends for our annual Christmas get together. We have met at the Highwayman for the past 4 years and never been disappointed. Once again the food was excellent (both quality and portion size) and the service was superb. The pub was a little quieter than usual (but it was a Wednesday evening). Absolutely superb evening. Thank you.

What a gem of a pub this is. Found it a couple of years ago and now have to come every time we are in York and that is three times a year! The chef is absolutely top notch with her own home cooked food and an excellent and varied menu. Staff and locals are very welcoming and give the pub its unique atmosphere. Highly recommend and well worth the visit.

Great Sunday lunch - food excellent - the homemade veg soup was delicious as a starter followed by the equally delicious roast pork with all the trimmings. great service too - perfect anniversary lunch venue. Beer very good too. Food so plentiful we had the pudding as a takeaway for later

What a find.... We were at the Caravan and Camping Club site and walked it. Took 40 minutes with the dogs. What a great find, we loved dinner, proper homemade steak and kidney and steak sn mushroom pies, seasonal veg, great plentiful gravy, and nice puds to follow. My wife wants to take this place home to Lancashire. Beer was 1st class, too. Can't believe anyone can give thiscless than 5 stars. We had 2 dogs so ate in the bar area, which we expected, and not only food but atmosphere and locals banter was great.

Had the 3 course Sunday lunch which was absolutely delicious. Started with creamy garlic mushrooms, sirloin of beef and a crumble & custard. The Theakston's bitter was spot on as was the service, can't wait to return. My only complaint was the plates could have done to have been a little hotter.

we stayed at Sherriff Hutton camping and caravan club and walked a mile to the village only to find that The Highwayman doesn't open at all on Mondays and Tuesdays so was very disappointed so have informed the camp site accordingly. Spoke to a few locals who said that the food has gone very expensive and not worth the extra money.

A cosy warm pub on a cold evening with pleasant staff. The menu looked interesting with 3 specials on the board which we chose from. Sadly very ordinary food with very uninteresting and over cooked vege, carrots, cabbage and cauliflower. The Cumberland sauce was too sweet and covered the whole meal not just the duck breast. I have tasted better ready meals.The chips were tasty and homemade , the best part of the meal. Overpriced for the quality, a shame as it is our local and I would be a regular if the food matched the ambience.....

On our way to Scarborough, we decided to turn off the main road in search of a local pub/restaurant. We were fortunate to come across the Highwayman. Friendly staff welcomed us at the bar and, as we had a dog with us, we were going to eat outside in their lovely beer garden. Then it started raining!The owner came out and said that we could hunker down in the bar area, with the dog, to eat our meals. Two of us had scampi with home-made chips. The other had a bacon & cheese burger. The food was so good that the dog, an ever-hungry Labrador, didn’t even get a look in. Great food. Nice atmosphere and so much better than a “services” on a main road.

Beautiful sunny day so we we enjoyed the gardens behind the pub. Tables and umbrellas amongst the trees. Order at the bar and the food is brought out to you. Dairy free, gluten free both available. Chicken goujons salad and chips, excellent [DF GF]. Mediterranean Lasagne, good. Chicken and bacon burger also got the 'good'. Unfortunately the kitchen closed before we could sample dessert.

Whilst camping at a nearby site last year we visited The Highwayman on two occasions, once on a Friday evening, once for Sunday lunch. On both occasions food was plentiful, well cooked and to a high standard. Having returned to the same site this year my partner and I returned, again on a Fri evening and for Sunday lunch. Food is beautifully presented, tasty and made with what appears to be high quality ingredients. The staff are welcoming and professional throughout the visit. I would have no hesitation to recommend to others. The prices are fair and in keeping with the quality and standard of food received.

Having booked a table on Saturday 4th August at 8pm we arrived early to be told our table wasn't ready, no problem, we were early after all. 8pm our table still occupied but an alternative was given and we got the menus and told no burgers and no dishes with chilli, ok. Order taken, 3/4 of an hour later a very rude young man came and told us there were no pies (ordered by hubby) left, surely you should have known before then that there were no pies to fulfil our order? It's been very busy is all they could say. Well I'm sorry but good kitchen management should have told you as soon as that order went in that it couldn't be filled.

Situated on the main road into Sheriff Hutton, the Highwayman is the quintessential country pub, smallish rooms, old, dark wooden beams and a decent selection of beers. The service is fine and it's not too expensive. Where it lets itself down is the food. I don't mind pub grub but I don't like poorly prepared pub grub. The steak that was I served was well done when I asked for medium rare and the chips were soggy, overcooked and rather limp. Other dishes for our small group were similarly under par. It's a nice place and worth a visit if you are in the area but don't bank on high quality food.

I was at the hotel early morning ahead of a conference and wanted tea and toast although not a resident. A young waiter called Abdul was very helpful and although his lounge section was not open for drinks etc at 7.40am he assisted and organised both for me. A professional , helpful and informative waiter who should be recognised for his service. Thanks again - it certainly left a positive impression with me about the hotel.

My wife and myself have eaten here a fair few times. But never have been as wowwed as we were last night. The gentleman at front of house was impeccable. A credit to the pub. After surveying the specials menu we both decided that the shin of beef pie with champ mash and fresh veg sounded too good to be missed. We were not disappointed! We both said, quite possibly the best pub meal we have ever ever had! The beef was cooked perfectly, the short crust pastry was just incredible. My wife Lydia said it was just like her mum's. That's some credit to the chef! The champ mash was delicious and the veg cooked absolutely spot on. Not a second too long. Again, perfect! We were probably too full for dessert but we were never going to resist if the main was anything to go by. My wife chose the Eton mess. I've never seen anyone look so happy eating a dessert. It looked amazing and indeed it was. I chose the apple and blueberry crumble. Simple and delicious. Just how I like it. All washed down with two fine glasses of Primitivo. And all very reasonable too. Top marks to everyone at the pub. We most definitely will be back!

Having booked a table, we had to wait at the bar for some while even to be welcomed, with people arriving after us being shown to tables before us. Once seated, it took a long time for anyone to take a drinks order, or to bring a drinks order, bring menus, etc. Indeed, so slow was the service that we decided that we would leave if our order hadn’t been taken within 10 minutes (having already waited some little while). In fact, it was taken within eight minutes! The food itself was lovely, but the service was chaotic, if friendly, and slow. There are much better places to eat in York.
