The best restaurants in Great Ayton Hambleton Yorkshire and The Humber

I come often and always enjoy, however this time was different. To be honest, not up to standard. The usual pizza chef wasn’t in and it really showed. Won’t be ordering again if this is the case. Very disappointed.

Our first visit to fry Court bistro food and service excellent we will be visiting again soon.

Very quiet cosy restaurant good excellent food. Been quite a few times always good. Not cheap but worth it. Always have the scallop starter which are cooked to perfection.

A bit disappointing; over £10 for two lattes only…., to be seated in a cold room with the wrong sized drinks given even though the staff admitted to knowing this - all very strange and all feeling very overpriced. Great location though!

We came here with our two dogs and we luckily got seated in the corner which was perfect when you've got dogs. The service was brilliant, friendly and helpful. We felt really welcomed. We did poached eggs and roasted tomatoes and poached eggs, spinach and halloumi. They have to be the most amazing poached eggs and the toast was delicious. Food came out quickly hot and fresh. On the way out we couldn't resist the cookie pie and damn that was bloody incredible! Absolutely love this place and will visit again for sure on our next travels.

Didn't plan on getting a chippy but we ended up following our noses here from round the corner, tasted equally as good as it smells. Good prices, friendly staff

I organised my Netball Teams Christmas Party here in December and it couldn’t have been better! The food was absolutely amazing, way too much for us all and the upstairs private room was perfect for our gathering. We were also kindly allowed to go downstairs later on in the night into the barn to watch the band, which was fab! All the girls had an amazing time and we couldn’t thank Whinstone enough! We will definitely be back♥️

I would never give business to this place ever again. I am incredibly disappointed and disgusted with the customer service of this place. I was taken here for a meal as a treat and sadly it was not the treat I had looked forward to. I am celiac and so I can’t eat gluten. I ordered off the gluten free main menu and the gluten free dessert menu. We paid for the bill and the service charge, on our way home I knew I didn’t feel well and within the hour my stomach was in soo much pain I took myself to bed. I’d definitely been given gluten in the main or in the dessert I’d ordered. I stay well away from gluten and so I know the symptoms when I’ve eaten gluten all too well! I was so poorly that evening and through the night, which was a real shame and upsetting. Those people who suffer with celiac will understand. I rang up and asked to speak to the manager who didn’t care to really want to know my complaint and put the owner straight on the phone. The owner was so rude and heartless. He began very abruptly and arrogant, he went on to say that he cooked my food and served it which was an absolute lie and that he knows those meals don’t have gluten so therefore didn’t believe me. He would not accept that I’d been poorly from his food. No compassion whatsoever. I genuinely feel so upset by this experience. They refused any compensation. They refused to offer me a refund for my meal, which is the least they could have done. the owner showed no understanding or empathy for the fact I had been so poorly after eating at the restaurant. I know exactly how my body reacts when I eat gluten and without any doubt in my mind that restaurant had gave me gluten! I would not recommend anyone goes here with allergies, they simply don’t care. I won’t eat here ever again, the manager was incredibly rude to me on the phone. An all round awful experience I wouldn’t wish for anyone else. I will forever be telling friends and family to not go here and give them business as the owner is not a nice person at all to deal with. I feel so let down by this business and I feel terribly treated as a customer and overall utterly disgusted. They can reply with a response to this post but I know exactly how I was spoken to and treated in this instance by the owner.

After helping with a power cut the week before. We thought the least we could do was pay this place a visit. Our food honestly was absolutely gorgeous. I'm still hearing 4 hours later how great the Yorkshire pudding wrap was, and my pie was fab. Lovely friendly people, beautiful location, and perfect food. Thank you also to the nice lady who suggested we move table so my little girl could look out on the scenery. The farm shop was great and there's even a sweet shop and pottery painting place. We will defo be back as my little girl wants to see the "sheep with the crazy hair again." Would absolutely recommend.

The staff in this establishment always go out of their way to welcome you and attend to your requirements. It’s no surprise they have so many regulars from cycling, walking groups and locals too. Food & coffee very tasty. Can certainly recommend their Full English breakfast -So tasty. Very happy to recommend- it’s the best cafe in Ayton!

Yummy food, lovely small friendly atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Perfectly placed along the Cleveland way.

What a little gem of a cafe. Breakfast service is personal and welcoming. The menu was taylored to my choice and so tasty. Yet to enjoy the evening menu but it always looks so warm and welcome when I drive by in an evening.

What a lovely find for nice food and not overpriced like the bigger'chain' garden centres I ordered a combo meal of tuna mayo sandwich and tomato+basil soup and 'other half ordered a piece of quiche (again a very generous portion) and 'coriander+carrot' soup Both soups were much more generous than the places where the price is double what we paid here and my sandwich had lots of filling and was in lovely seeded bread The staff were all lovely and very friendly and welcoming Will defo call here again- sorry Strikes you need to take a leaf out of their book and have a look at the portion sizes and prices that you provide

Thank you Akbardarbar for an incredible tasting take away last night. Friends from Whitby travel to Guisborough for your food. We ordered extra meals last night as they took some home with them to freeze. The meals all arrived on time, hot and absolutely delicious. Thank you for the poppadoms.

Visited last Friday evening after settling into our lodge and after a long drive from home. Staff very friendly. We had not booked but they managed to fit us in. Quite busy. Very good variety on menu and portions big. Great value for money. Starters of Cheese soufflé and deep fried Camembert (off the Christmas specials menu). Main courses - Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Fajitas, Turkey baguette, roast potatoes and gravy. Definitely recommend. Look forward to trying breakfasts next time we come.
