The best restaurants in Middleham Richmondshire Yorkshire and The Humber

We have had food from Andersons 3 times, the food has been excellent everytime. Last time I had a vegan pizza - best pizza I've had in a long time.

Delicious food. The place is quite unique, especially the decor. Service not the best, we only had one drinks menu between 6 that was given a while after the food menu. Staff didn’t tend to listen to what we said or pay much attention to the table. Overall would recommend as the food was very nice with lots of choice on the menu, we loved the map of the local produce they use.

A very quiet pub when we went in, real ales were great and kept well. I did find out this pub is up for sale so maybe that is why the atmosphere was a bit lacklustre.

What a gorgeous, welcoming pub/restaurant this is! Recommend by East Witton Shepard’s hut whereby it has absolutely lived up to its positive reputation! Alf could not have done enough for us, checking and refilling our drinks with the most attentive and kind service, thank you so much! Will travel 3 hours for this again anyday!!

Excellent haddock and chips. Really fresh, crisp battered, plenty of fish and a HUGE portion of delicious chips. The only white fish they serve is haddock, although the special was salt and pepper squid. Friendly service

Generous portions and absolutely delicious!

A really lovely little hotel and restaurant with a cosy bar and wood burning stove. The staff were excellent and Fiona the owner was incredibly helpful and attentive. Middleham is a lovely village with a number of welcoming pubs and a convenience store. There are a number of lovely walks of varying length and difficulty starting from the centre of middleham.

Brilliant- great value and really friendly and helpful service.

Just came back from a night in the Dante arms, lovely place to stay and really friendly staff. Rooms were very clean and comfortable, breakfast was amazing too could not fault anything and excellent value for money.

Really warm and cosy atmosphere ✨️

My girlfriend & I have just returned home from "The Blue Lion", which was our first ever visit for Sunday lunch. The two course Sunday lunch was good quality and really enjoyable. As was the excellent service we received by the friendly staff members throughout our lunch. The downside was when we received the bill, only to note my girlfriends large glass of shiraz came to a staggering £18.50. This was followed by a medium glass priced at £13.50!! Having both lived in North Yorks for a good number of years. And having dined at most of the reputable pubs/restaurants within the region. My girlfriend confirmed that by far this is the most expensive glass of shiraz she has ever had in her life. I can only think of a couple of other times where a singular alcholic drink was around the same price or more. And that was in the top floor bar in "The Shard", and also Casino Square in Monaco. Not prices I would expect in a reputable North Yorkshire country pub having Sunday lunch. Moving forward may I suggest these wine prices are outlined to the customer before they order. Taking into account there is no drinks menu on the table. Especially when we could have received a bottle of house red costing slightly less than the two glasses of Shiraz. Overall a needless negative end to what was an enjoyable Sunday lunch from a food & service perspective.

We were very lucky to book a table for 7 of us on a Saturday night at short notice! The hostess was so lovely and so accommodating as we had a 2 year old dining with us. 4 of us had steaks which we all requested to be cooked differently and each one was absolutely perfect. So so tasty and thick. Some of the party had pork and they said it was incredible! So beautifully presented and even the 2 year old finished every bit! We had space for desert and were not disappointed! My dad had the sticky toffee pudding and he said he was the best he had ever ever had!! A really lovely atmosphere. The wine we had was delicious! We were so very well looked after and the team called us by our names which I thought was an amazing detail. Would absolutely recommend! Do not miss it! Will come again. Thank you team!
