The best restaurants in Richmondshire Yorkshire and The Humber

Ok for a coffee but the staff were terrified of any customers. Not allowed to use the toilet. Long wait for coffee. Shouted at to wear masks we were already wearing. Seemed paralysed by fear - I would avoid even trying to sit inside. They were happy for people to sit outside. Though it was raining hard. Such a shame as a delightful village and would have been a nice break from our walk.

Called here for a few drinks at 8:45pm on the way home to the caravan park. Upon arrival door was open and lights on, to all intense and purposes a welcoming pub. However to our disbelief we were turned away in a rude manor as by an obnoxious man at the end of the bar, who was the landlord, To be told abruptly that the he had cashed up the till and only had one person in. We were left to our own devices outside the pub in the pouring rain while we had to ring a taxi. In this time the landlord let two people out of the venue and stoked up the fire! Even in troubling times times this landlord does not want custom. Avoid Avoid Avoid!

We tried the carvery at the Cricket Club after googling around for a decent carvery in the Catterick area. When we arrived the whole setup was very reminiscent of a school dinner. All the meat was already pre-carved, so that the whole thing works as a one big conveyer belt. The quality however is very average and most of the ingredients are clearly made from frozen. I’d recommend a Toby carvery over this. But it was edible.

We were regulars at the Croft for Sunday lunch and it had always been excellent until our visit last Sunday The food was awful lukewarm, roast potatoes that weren’t cooked we were given a bowl of mushed vegetables At the table next to us were a group of 5 adults and 2 small children It took an hour for them to receive their main course the children’s food didn’t arrive until after the adults had finished their meals As you can image they were not happy I know the new owners have spent a lot of money making the hotel a specialist wedding venue but if this is the standard of food that is being served at their weddings god help them I have since food out that the old chef has left and obviously the new one isn’t up to standard We were debating on going for Christmas lunch but at the cost of £100.00 per head we won’t be going No wonder they have plenty of availability

I think this pub is closed now .it was very bleak but what an amazing place we had a drink with the owner. His mum had passed .

Visited mid week for an early meal out with my better half great service and food good portions can recommend the Thai Red Curry very good and my wife’s honey belly pork got a big yes vote , two puds followed again both really good , we will definitely return

Lovely welcome and friendly staff. We called in after a walk for a pub lunch and were not disappointed. Good selection of pies, Yorkshire Puddings with fillings and Ciabattas. Very dog friendly pub.

We live local so have given The George more than enough chances over the years for sunday lunch. The really need a good chef. I like my veg al dente not raw! The rest of the food was cold.

Our first trip to Leyburn ruined by this cafe experience. Went with my you family. You need a pin to go the dingy toilet, there are signs everywhere telling you not to do something, it says it’s dog friendly but it definitely is not children friendly, the menu is overpriced, the staff are rude, it is called a cafe and does not act as a cafe, the old male waiter needs to be let go as he makes unkind comments that make you feel uncomfortable. I only stayed as we were very hungry, but really should’ve walked out and got a meal deal from the co-op. I will not be returning and urge all to not bother in the first place. I am surprised that it is even open.

Worst KFC meal I have had - tables dirty, cold in the seating area due to air con and the meal really wasn't great- our tower burgers had a dark coloured hard, greasy, crunchy overcooked coating with dry chicken inside. Perhaps it had been sat too long waiting for it to be sold? It certainly wasn't fresh. Would be wary about eating chicken from there again. Not had this experience in a KFC before. Maybe someone higher up should be checking in occasionally to check on hygiene/food safety standards......

Poor dot com can’t fault the staff very helpful but sandwiches should be made fresh we waited 30 mins to be served so please consider visiting

Called in late afternoon after a long journey. The place was freezing cold inside ! Ordered the delicious sounding homemade lemonade but was told quite bluntly no, no one ever orders it! Also ordered a homemade scone and asked for it to be served cold but was rudely told that they had to be microwaved from frozen. Wouldn’t recommend or go back but it did provide us with a bit of Fawlty Towers type entertainment! Sadly, judging by other reviews this wasn’t a one-off.

Lovely fried rice....just a shame about the rest of the dishes. Poor quality meat in the main dishes, mixed (frozen) vegetables and dry over-cooked chips. Service without a smile taking advantage of the captured squaddie audience in Catterick.

Great service with a smile from a Scottish lady. Shame they don’t do sprinkles on their ice cream. And why oh why do they only accept cash. Everybody uses contactless and card these days. Will visit again.

Service very slow considering only 2 others waiting. Chips were already bagged and cold.Our burgers were fine. Our food was bagged even though we had said we were eating in. The lady next to us had also been given cold chips and burgers .Not much care and attention given.
