The best restaurants in Tanfield Hambleton Yorkshire and The Humber

Exceptional dinner and breakfast. Rooms have a high quality homely feel. I would come again if in the area.

So upset, booked a table, received a confirmation only to sit outside for half an hour. The pub is in order inside, but must no longer be in business? No notification, shouldn’t be taking bookings. Phone disconnected.

Myself and my friend John had a wonderful overnight stay here when we visited Thirsk racecourse. The owner Alice went beyond the call of duty when we arrived early and also when we were looking for transport to the track. The establishment was spotless with a great car park facility. The breakfast was first class. We are only sorry we never had the time to sample the Cantonese restaurant. Thanks Alice for your kindness and the friendly welcome. We will hopefully be back in the near future to visit Ripon racetrack. Scott and John.

Visited the Bruce Arms today at lunchtime with a friend and dogs. The food us really lovely. Duck terrine with celeriac and toast to start and Spinach and cheese quiche, homemade slaw and new potatoes. Delicious. The staff are so very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

Lovely beer garden especially on a pleasant day. The landlady seemed quite abrupt and not particularly welcoming. The sandwiches we had were good but expensive for what you get compared to other establishments

Booked an evening meal while visiting the area. The food was lovely and well presented. Staff attentive. Only gripe I had my steak was overcooked. I ordered rare but there wasn’t any pink in there at all. Only consolation was it was tasty and thankfully not tough. We had finished our meal before anyone asked if everything was ok. The server did say she wished we had alerted her as she would have sorted it and I believe she would have. Had the steak been rubbish I would’ve complained but feel it would have been unjustified. We will return when we are next in the area as the food was generally top notch with good portions.
