The best restaurants in Ryedale Yorkshire and The Humber

Booked a table online which was very simple to do. We arrived for our meal and the staff were very welcoming and we sat at our table straightaway. Service was great and quick. We didn’t wait long for drinks and our starters came soon after. The main course arrived not 5 minutes or so after the starters had been cleared. A great all round service and highly recommended for nice Italian food.

Well. I'm 62 years old and been eating bacon sandwiches all my life. I have got to say that the Bacon and black pudding sandwich I had at this lovely little cafe was the best I have EVER had!! Ok it was £8 but the home made bread,3 rashers of dry cured back bacon and a nice slice of Doreen's black pudding was marvellous. My wife also had the most amazing gluten free chocolate torte. Staff were also very attentive and friendly. Will definitely be going back very soon .

Went for lunch yesterday and first class experience. Staff are exemplary, efficient, friendly and professional service. Spotlessly clean and well maintained pub and the food just spot on. As well as really good starters, we both had their famous scampi mains. If there is better scampi anywhere I would like to know! None of your frozen breadcrumbed stuff here just the real McCoy! Have previously had other mains which are just as good. Theakston’s draught Best Bitter really good too and at a very fair price too, unlike so many other gastro pubs. A real gem on all counts.

Fab friendly cafe! The best scone I’ve tasted in a long while, and served with proper cream and a yummy jam. My partner is coeliac and said the GF cake was great. Excellent coffee too :)

What a lovely place a peak back in time the sandwiches were fresh and had plenty of filling. Then the cakes, had fresh baked scones and cake what better way to spend a couple of hours on a miserable weather wise Thursday,the tea loaf was to die for and the mini Victoria sponges were great( had to save for later). The staff and locals were great and had a good time putting the world to rights. Thanks to all including the lovely local old girl.

A little hidden treasure! Everything was just perfect. Super hosting, delicious food and great service. We were extremely lucky to get a cancellation and can’t wait to visit again.

A nice little coffee/tea shop in the town centre offering delicious cakes and scones. Coffee was really tasty, but very slow to serve. Polite guys managing seating area. Dog friendly.

We started visiting Groovy Moo around 6 or 7 years ago and would call in for an ice cream literally every week and sometimes two or three times during the summer. They prided themselves on their huge "Yorkshire portions". The quality of the ice cream is second to none and we love it. However just after Covid they increased their prices, understandably, but also reduced the portion sizes significantly from 5 flavours to 3 with a large tub. They tried to say you get the same portion however this is nonsense as we have photos to show how they used to be, We didn't go for quite some time but recently started visiting again. Yesterday we called in and I asked for my usual large tub and the young girl serving gave me around a half to two thirds of the week before. I questioned this, giving the opportunity to top it up but she didn't. There needs to be more continuity of portion sizes. I just left feeling annoyed and the £5:50 paid was definitely not worth it. I think it will be a long time before we go in again. I love ice cream and the long drive for us would be rewarded with a good value ice cream portion, sadly this is no longer the case!

I had the best scone I have ever eaten in my life and I am a senior citizen so I have eaten a few in my time! Delicious! Will definitely go back again.

What a beautiful place! The best dining experience I’ve had. The food and drink are delicious and thoughtfully crafted. Everything about Pignut is unique, right down to the ceramics used to serve the food. A real treat for art lovers together with the paintings on the walls. The ambience was relaxing and welcoming, Laurissa is the perfect host and the chef Tom has created food that looks and tastes superb. Can’t wait to go back!

Another fantastic meal at Forty Six . The restaurant have recently launched a new menu, so we thought we’d pop in try it . Arrived 5 minutes early , our table was ready for us , we were seated and a drinks order was taken while we looked at the menu , we opted for Garlic & Rosemary Focaccia bread to start , followed by Hoisin Glazed Pork Ribs with Sticky Rice , Slow Braised Lamb Arepas , Manchego & Spinach Croquette , Crispy Mushroom Polenta & some fries , the restaurant serves small plates and this was ample for the two of us . Every dish was very well presented and absolutely delicious, and although we were full to the brim , we couldn’t miss out on the amazing desserts, Lemon Meringue tart and Churros were our choices and they didn’t disappoint. The restaurant was full within the hour and the service was excellent. Another lovely meal at Forty Six, big credit to the chefs and the front of house staff . We’ll be back soon.

Lovely place beautiful food and stunning cakes! Coffee some of the best I’ve had. Fantastic friendly team. Visited several times and always busy, great atmosphere.

We enjoyed another faultless evening meal at the Bay Horse. All of the team are warm and welcoming and the food is the best around. I enjoyed the goats cheese fritters for starter whilst my husband had ordered the fish hors d’oeuvres, every part of this dish was a delight and I’ll be sure to order my own on our next visit! For mains I had the absolutely perfect Hake (which was so tasty) whilst my husband had the pork belly and pheasant, again both absolutely faultless. Thank you for a lovely evening, we’ll be back very soon.

Food, customer service and value are consistently great at Hearts. Four of us just had a late lunch -the place was packed and still the service was friendly and efficient.
