The best restaurants in Richmondshire Yorkshire and The Humber

Verrrrrry slow service and I'm so sad to write that my sister had a long dark hair in her fish cake. They brought our food out over an hour later and then still didn't bring out the 1 year olds kids meal until after we'd got ours. Sorry to say I wouldn't come here for food again.

My husband and I waited for 50 minutes for our meal. I ordered beef stefado. When it arrived it was dry and looked as though it had been under the grill. The dish was hot but the stefado was not. Very disappointed. As there was no service check I went and returned the meal. The waitress/ staff member brought me a refund and offered anything else from the menu. She was very apologetic. This was Thursday 22nd May.

Awesome Pub, very nicely decorated with the biggest/nicest terrass of Leyburn. And oh!!! I was going to forget: beer is good!

Found this gem while on the coast to coast and looking for somewhere to camp at Richmond. Exactly on the trail 2 miles on so no detour needed. Pitch, shower, toilets and washing machine were all available for “free” with the purchase of a drink - what a dream. The crew were super hospitable (as were the patrons!) and ended up chatting and singing until close. Free darts was another bonus. They kept me watered and fed and was fantastic fun as a solo traveller. Even provided food for my onward travels. Will be sure to say hi when I am passing through again 🍻 Thank you everyone who made my stay so memorable.

Great rooms, service, people and great breakfast.

We won't be back here for breakfast..mine was awful...undercooked sausage, undercooked bacon..burned toast...husbands scrambled egg and salmon was ok but neither were worth the £10 plus each we paid for them. Even the toast and jam I asked for was burned toast and just a dollop of jam smeared in a paper cup thing. Don't bother with breakfast here its simply not worth it.

Fantastic food. Burgers are great. A new dish, chicken waffle was tasty too. Welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Lady serving in the takeaway was lovely but that was as good as it gets. Sadly, the food was terrible. We barely touched it and most went in the bin. Mushy fried rice, slimy omelette and the rest just tasted weird. Chips/salt and pepper chips weren't horrible and apparently the chicken curry was ok - but not good by any means. I would have sent it back in a restaurant but paid cash in a takeaway when on holiday. I'm confused by the positive reviews, maybe they have different chefs so can be a bit hit and miss? For us, on a Monday night, it was a huge miss! Incidentally, it would have been good value if the food was good.

The good was amazing. Fresh, hot and plenty of choice too. The service was great. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was perfect. So neat, tidy and modern with great views too. I definitely will be booking again soon

We checked in and the owner stated the DJ would be on until 1/1:30am in the morning which I understand as it’s a pub … got to the room there was mould all in the bathroom and the window was so drafty I was absolutely freezing. 11pm came people were in the beer garden, they may aswell of been in the room with me, so loud and the music shook all the walls. The only thing that was ok was the bedding and towels seemed fresh. I’ve been to a lot of 18-30 hotels abroad and they didn’t even compare to the noise I experienced. It’s such a shame as Richmond is beautiful and the property is so old and could be gorgeous. I do a lot of honest reviews good and bad so please take my advice and stay elsewhere.

Absolutely fantastic experience this evening. The welcoming was warm, the venue was clean and the food was lip smacking. I went for the Dumplings which were very tasty not to mention the chilli chicken. Two very good dishes amongst many others on the menu. Would highly recommend this venue to anyone who happens to find themselves in Catterick garrison. Loved it! Back again soon🤞🏽

What an excellent place. Visited a few times over the years and I think the place it's the best its ever been. There is a great vibrant atmosphere. The food is absolutely excellent and the service is first class. We love coming here and try to come more and more. Well Done Friars Head!

Just had standard fish and chips , £9.90 takeaway. Wow they were amazing, best I’ve had in a long time. Hot and very tasty. Lovely thick fish and perfectly cooked.

Fabulous place to stay, central with parking, super cosy, great atmosphere, lovely staff and great food. Rooms were lovely and clean and the beds were comfy. Would definitely recommend and would certainly stay again.

Visited twice on a stay in the area. Sat in the restaurant. Spoilt for choice with such a wonderful menu. Food was great - fish and chips and chilli prawns highly recommended. Service was excellent.
