The best restaurants in Knaresborough King James Harrogate Yorkshire and The Humber

This place has changed its name now and I can’t remember what it’s called. I went in for a sandwich which was lovely but the place…. Oh goodness! It really needs a rethink. It’s tiny and full of heavy tables and bulky old furniture that makes it really difficult to get around. It’s not shabby chic unfortunately, it’s missing the chic!! Outside looks ok but the new owners need to have a rethink of the interior. Also, when people leave it’s a good idea to clean the tables! Its not inviting to come in and see that tables haven’t been cleaned and there’s no excuse when the place is so quiet.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. We had a great dinner with very friendly service. Great atmosphere for a Wednesday night. We are staying @ The Lido, so it’s a stones throw for us, but worth travelling further for a meal that’s great value. Well done to all the team from the kitchen to the bar staff.

Excellent cafe - very friendly owner. Will make a return visit next time in Knaresborough 😊

Brought a mate here last week(Sept 2023)for a meal on a Friday night and it was Delicious we had a sizzler starter to share, a main course and rice each,and one naan bread,My Chicken Madras was Amazing! Used to eat here many years ago when it was The Spice Merchant.Nice decor and lighting too.

Varied choice, good quality food, served promptly and with efficiency and above all-happily! Read the hotel review for more info!

Excellent scone (grandma’s recipe) and tea out of china cups. Unlike many other cafe/teashops in Knaresborough, it’s open after 4pm and dog friendly.

Ate here on our first night of a 2 day trip. Found the staff very friendly and helpful. We ordered a chicken curry which was one of the best I have ever eaten, my husband had fish and chips and was very happy with it.

There are 'good' welcomes...There are 'great' welcomes...and then there is a Danyella welcome! From the 1st moment she was delightful, helpful, absolutely charming and lovely! Lovely fire in the REAL grate! Good beers and altogether a smashing way to drink a few beers! Thank you!

Nice traditional bakery and cake shop..wonderful tempting display of cream cakes, etc. Only issue, no prices on display! Surely that's a legal requirement to display prices? 4 cakes/slices came to over £12. Despite to good cakes the pricing situation may well put off using again.

1858 is great for people with allergies. My husband is gluten and lactose free. They were brilliant. They came and told him exactly what he could have on the menu and how the chef would all trip for him. The food was fantastic. The service was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble and we definitely go back again certainly recommended

Decided to have a change of morning coffee venue so drive the distance to Knaresboroughs St James Retail Park. Stanleys Kitchen is situated on the top floor of the Barker and Stonehouse store A privately owned and managed coffee shop and kitchen aka ' eatery ' , serving the perfectly cooked breakfast foods and exquisitely cooked range of light meals . I'm a very fussy poached egg eater and on taking my orders my clear preferences were noted and hey presto my lazy Sunday breakfast was perfect , garnish and all. Staff and service second to non. Price reflects ambiance, quality and service. We wont be leaving it long before we return

I know its just a subway but as all stores are a franchise I think I ought to give credit to the service we received yesterday. My partner gets a subway a lot, always the same order and his was the best he's ever had. Staff were friendly and not skimpy with fillings as you do sometimes find!

Continues to be our absolute favourite dining locally. Beautiful New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, excellent for all diners including vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. Always super welcoming staff, great atmosphere.

Fantastic little sandwich shop, I used to go on a regular basis when I worked in Knaresborough. Food is always freshly made for you and the staff are really friendly and offer great customer service.

Nice pub and very unique we had a lovely waitress called Ruby a very professional and friendly young lady a credit to the establishment. The food was nice rather large portions to much for my wife but no problem Ruby boxed the half of the roast beef sandwich for us to take away. Quite difficult to park hence the 4 stars.
