The Nags Head, Askham Bryan in York

Had my dad's 80th birthday meal last night for 50 , brilliant meal, brilliant night, brilliant staff . Thanks to The nags head

Visiting the area and went for lunch was busy when we arrived but but staff welcoming and friendly food was amazing 😋 we'll worth the wait and certainly excellent value for money over all really good 👍 visit definitely recommend 😊

The food is hot, tasty, good portions, and overall an excellent meal. Staff were welcoming and helpful, also making sure your table was okay throughout the meal.

Lovely pub, lovely staff, nice beer garden though chilly we were with our dogs, heater in undercover area. Great

Fantastic pub and restaurant. Looks really nice from outside and is a perfect balance of traditional and modern. We visited with some friends and the food was simply gorgeous. Will absolutely visit again. Well done to all the staff for such high standards.

I recently visited The Nags Head, and it was a lovely experience overall. The food was delicious, and the portions were very generous – definitely great value for money. Whether you're after a hearty meal or just a quick bite, the menu has a nice range of options that are well-prepared and satisfying. One of the standout features of this place is that it’s dog-friendly, which is a huge plus if you're looking to bring along your four-legged friend. The relaxed atmosphere makes it a perfect spot for both casual dining and a comfortable visit with pets. I’ll definitely be returning!

Arrived late in area and set about looking for a dinner meal. Unannounced we were welcomed and offered a table immediately. The servings were generous and well priced. Service was excellent with staff checking mid-meal that everything was OK.

Lovely pub, busy, great attmosphere. Recommended by our B&B host for a decent meal. The food was perfectly good, not spectacular, but we liked this place because it was local, honest and unpretentious.

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Would recommend.

We visited mid week 4 of us . Nice welcome on arrival. Pleasant and helpful staff. A great choice of starters, I chose the belly pork starter , it was fantastic . My daughter chose the holloumi which was just as good... the 4 mains were all very good . Scampi very tasty with chunky home made chips .... Spare ribs were great and plenty of them. Also 2 chicken & chorizo hanging kebabs which were very good ..... good value & good quality food . ... Took us a while to decide what to have for mains as there is rather a lot of choice. Will be visiting again soon. Many thanks. *** We returned today for a Sunday lunch and it was great food and good value..... There were 4 of us and all ordered the Sunday lunches which were a chicken, two beef & salmon lunches. Big portions , excellent quality and great value. Staff were friendly and efficient. ... many thanks Nag's Head. Another wonderful meal on Sunday afternoon, keep up the good work and service.

Friendly staff. Great food plenty of choice.

Excellent family local lovely food in a friendly atmosphere, well worth a visit for Sunday lunches and midweek meals! No sky sports!! Slot machines or music boxes etc Free wi-Fi so relaxed opportunity for plenty of conversation.

Met a friend for lunch staff welcoming had a nice relaxing meal in a nice atmosphere

Our Speakability Group people enjoyed the meal and the atmosphere, the point was that with some of our people are disabled ♿ and going to the toilet was not very easy for them, also where they needed to park was also very akward, l understand due too my ex husband who had a severe stroke 33 years ago we need too open the car door very very wide due to the fact he has problems trying to get his right foot into and out of the car has his tendon has gone from his right leg completely

Stayed near here at a campsite and walked to this absolute gem of a pub. A great selection of beers, a gorgeous traditional style pub, with a nice beer garden. The food was absolutely amazing. All the staff were lovely and the service was exceptional, and they are dog friendly, even for our noisy little border terrier. Highly recommended, you must try it.

Good food and large portions, so go with empty stomach. Staff are always helpful.

This is my favorite pub in the whole world. I have been drinking and dining here since the 1970s with my family. The staff are lovely and the beer and food are just amazing. My Cod and Chips were perfect, a huge piece of fish. I like to call this table Grandad's Table as we would sit in this corner back in the day with my mom's dad. Can't wait to come back here in the future.

Traditional British food in a pub with a traditional local atmosphere. There are dishes of the day, with pork, beef, chicken

Wonderful food with excellent service

Booked for breakfast and evening meal for 35 ppl we were on an outing to York races the staff and food were amazing this is the third outing here and will keep coming back highly recommend 😍

Just called in for a drink. Staff were lovely.

Great traditional pub, had a lovely panini and pint of IPA, good value

Really nice breakfast before the races 👍🏻

Brilliant wee pub for lunch, nice outdoor seating area, excellent paninis. Would be back sometime when next in York.

Lovely atmosphere in here. The staff were especially nice and the food very tasty and well priced. Recommend.

This pub is very nice and the staff are very nice.

Absolutely amazing food, really friendly staff

Great little country pub, open fire, Great food.

Food excellent as are the staff. Warm, welcoming staff in cosy enviroment.

The Nags is a local which provides food created by a chef. No packaged food. Sourced locally. Not cheap but worth the money.

Enjoyed a lovely family meal, staff very friendly and helpful.

It was a brill meal.far to much to eat.

Wonderful food and excellent service. Kim our waitress was outstanding

Great food and great service always

Been here a few times now, the food is gorgeous absolutely love the food here, the staff are very helpful and friendly, they come over to the table and ask if everything is alright, I'll be going back here again 👍👍

Lovely food and friendly staff.

Lovely food great staff always great service😊

If ya want a fabulous 👌 👏 dinner 🍽 😋 come here, great friendly staff, food is out of this world. I recommend this pub all day long.

Staff very polite food is delicious highly recommend

Very delicious food and not expensive. For 15£ you get full 😊 4stars as not cleaned properly ;) still recommend

Had a meeting here tonight. Had my tea beforehand. They cooked me what I wanted that wasn't on the menu, sign of a good chef. Good experience. Sure we will be back.

Very friendly, nice garden, quaint and amazing food

The most unfriendly place I‘ve ever been to. We (couple of two) came over at 6 pm from the nearby campground, for some drinks and dinner. They told us in such a rude way, they don’t serve food for walk ins and were too busy. Even two portions of chips were not possible, although the whole place was nearly empty.

A fantastic dog friendly local. The food is fantastic value. A good sized garden. If you want to eat inside with a dog it is best to book. Very friendly staff. We visited twice for food in a week. Do visit

Pretty nice pub, gets busy so be sure to book if you want to eat there. However, like many pubs and restaurants these days they seem to have run out of plates and instead pile your food onto wooden chopping boards instead. This means if you have anything runny then it either runs off your chopping board or it runs in the cracks. Please, for the love of God, stop putting food on chopping boards. Plates are ergonomically better and more hygienic too. Other than that it's a great place to eat and drink and they have an outdoor area as well.

Big portions of excellent food. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Dog friendly.

Great find called in after a visit to the nearby college food and service absolutely spot on. I very rarely give 5 out of 5 but it's well-deserved here and a nice pint too

Stayed at local Prem Inn and looked for local pub for a good meal... found this gem.... Nice country pub.. open fire.... friendly Staff and Awesome food reasonably priced. I have eaten in top restaurants that could learn from this chef. 10/10 Well To The Team

Always amazing food and service. It makes a refreshing change to have home cooked food delivered with exceptional high standards. Definitely deserves 5 stars.

Second time here, great food made by a highly talented chef. Prices are fair for what you get, as are the portions. Definitely a treat rather than weekly dining.

Lovely staff lovely welcome lovely food 10 out of 10 all round

Had Sunday lunch here after a hike round the beautiful surrounding villages. The pub is cosy and welcoming with friendly helpful staff. Food was really fresh and tasty and the portions were huge. Prices very reasonable. Highly recommend this pub.

Good food, generous servings, great atmosphere and super service. And great company too, but I cannot promise that for you!

We was staying at the nearby Travellodge and called to the Nags Head for an evening meal. There is parking available at the front. The staff were lovely and friendly and accommodated us without fuss. The food was great and ample. There was a nice relaxed atmosphere and local pub feel. I didn't know they did rooms prior, but will certainly consider staying when in the area in the future.

Great choice's on the menu, busy for a lunch time, glad I'd booked a table. Well worth a visit. Only down side, no free WiFi, for showing photos on PAYG phone.

Great local place the staff are lovely and friendly food as usual was delicious they go above and beyond to please customers always enjoy coming here busy little pub so best to book a table

Had a lovely meal here. Large portions good food. Great atmosphere. Wish we lived nearer

Excellent meal, polite staff. Pub has old world feel, still has open fire which might not suit everybody as a bit smokey, but dining area well away from it. Will be going again.

Great beer, great, great atmosphere. Real community pub. The food is excellent. Put on great community events.

Great pub, really enjoyed Sunday .

Very friendly traditional country pub excellent food lovely staff , very dog friendly. Too many of this kind of pub have gone, if I lived nearby I'd be a regular.

Staying at the nurserys campsite we drove to the pub, we had fish and chips and hunters chicken, huge porsions, perfectly cooked, never seen a fish that big, the food and service we brilliant.

Lovely food and most of the staff were very friendly, I had my baby with me and upon asking if there was a changing area was I was told “there isn’t one sorry” by a member of staff and another member of staff overheard then said I could change her on the floor of the ladies toilets. Disgusting alternative. Needless to say I didn’t and changed my child in the car. As I say the food was great and came quickly but the place really needs to get better facilities considering there was 4 other babies in there at the time.

Great service and excellent quality food.

Lovely meal ...Good service. Will definitely be going back x

great food and service big surprise as it does'nt look up to much. Don't be put off or you"ll miss a real treat.

Extensive menu and very good food.

Great village pub for a pint, always a fire blazing when it’s cold and if your hungry the food is excellent, have eaten here a few times and never let me down

Lovely place great food service 1st class.

Great pub grub!! Not fancy schmancy but lovely tastes, food value, good quality ingredients and a very friendly atmosphere. We'll be back! And also Strongbow on draught which is a big plus in hubby's book!

Great menu and food , would recommend

Lovely staff warm and welcoming, great food

Staying at Nurseries Caravan Park and found the Nags Head by chance as it is off a main road (1237). Such a friendly welcome and fabulous food. Extremely generous portions well cooked and presented. A little gem of a place, will definitely go back when next in the area. Highly recommend.

First time visit here for lunch with family. Will definitely visit again. Staff very friendly & customer service was excellent. Fantastic choice on the menu & a specials board. Food was excellent. A very friendly welcoming place.

Great local pub, serving really good pub grub!

Warm welcome, excellent pub fayre. Quiet ambience, able to hold a conversation.

Friendly staff, good selection, great food and reasonable prices

Lovely pub in a lovely location good choice of beers but be aware they stop serving evening meals quite early

Very warm welcome and food was delicious. Will visit again and highly recommend.

Bad start when the dinners was served on a wooden boards. What about the gravy.

Excellent meals can recommend hunters chicken and spare ribs and to finish of lemon curd cheese cake ,very nice .Good size portions at a reasonable price what move can you ask for

Nice meals, value for money, friendly

Lovely little pub tucked quietly away in the beautiful village of Askham Bryan fresh food great beer owners and staff are really approachable and you have to meet Bob the dog he's a star

Great meals and friendly staff nice beer garden worth a visit if you in the area. Good range of foods not the cheapest by far but excellent value for money

Great meal for the price, couldn't fault anything. Will definitely return soon.

Nice little place to stop for a pint while out walking

An impromptu visit to a local(-ish) quiet village pub for lunch on a lovely sunny day. Nice range of food for many tastes (inc. kids) on the menu, and a decent range of beverages available. Normally, booking is required at the moment, but it was quiet (thanks to the Euros sportsball tournament), so we got away without. Great staff, great service, and other patrons were friendly. I think we'll be heading back for a proper Sunday Pub Roast before long.

Friendly helpful staff and home cooked food. Enjoyable early evening meal.

Fab friendly service and great food

Love coming here for food! Nice atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff and delicious meals.

Outstanding food and service been several times not had a bad meal
