The best restaurants in Sowerby Hambleton Yorkshire and The Humber

High quality great tasting fish and chips completely reliable and consistent. Sausages are also fantastic and locally produced coming from Masham.

Just finished eating my “Italiano” bagel (salami, mozzarella and balsamic). It was seriously fresh and tasty. Reasonably priced too for what is quality food.

The outdoor ashtray at this pub is on the wall right next to the front door. So smokers (and their smoke) congregate not just by the door but actually in the doorway, blocking it. Quite incredible but also really off-putting.

Seven of us were spending a week flying at the Yorkshire Gliding Club, Sutton Bank and on a rainy morning we visited the Gavel for Breakfast on a Club Member’s recommendation. If you’re looking for a full English breakfast this is definitely the place to go. Good quality nicely cooked breakfast, good portions,(you would have to be ravenous to go for the large), excellent value for money, good service and friendly staff. Look forward to going to try the lunch on our next visit.

A lovely garden centre with a great rage of plants and gifts to buy. The clothes shop was well stocked and they were just getting ready for Halloween and Xmas so the displays were looking good already. Nice tea and coffee and a good menu. All the plants looked in good condition and some lovely trees too.

We stayed here recently and as always the rooms were spotless, the bed was very comfortable and the place was quiet all night. The staff were excellent and very friendly, a little disappointed that there is not a bar here, so can't get draught beers and not ideal to sit and have a few extra drinks, although we did linger with a glass of wine. We were looking at booking again in August but looking on the website I noticed that the free parking we enjoyed will be no more from 19th July as the car park will now be managed by an outside company called YourParkingSpace and they'll charge £8 per 24 hours. Very disappointing, I will be staying elsewhere this time.

Just been to the new cafe in Thirsk Tesco, Served by a lovely lady. Had cheese and ham toasties, it was scrummy lovely cheese and a black coffee, shall be back.

It's a McDonald's, stopped here whilst charging my car, bit awkward to get to from the charging station. I don't often visit McDonald's, chip are way to salty, not even sure if they are potato. The spicy chicken burger was quite nice but the bun is very sweet. Not my favourite take away, although the speed of the service was excellent.
