The best restaurants in Cropton Ryedale Yorkshire and The Humber

Small and cosy tea room where we enjoyed the most beautiful family afternoon tea. Just a lovely way to end our weeks stay in North Yorkshire. The bread for the sandwiches was so soft, tea was served with free top ups and scones freshly made from the oven and warm to eat. Cakes were beautiful too and there was more than enough for all 6 of us to enjoy. Ages ranged from 10-44yrs and enjoyed by all. If you like a bit of nostalgia and like afternoon tea, this is the place to go. We would highly recommend The Middleton Tea Rooms.

We chose the Middleton arms after seeing pictures of the gammon steak on Facebook, unfortunately this was sold out on the evening we went along with a few other dishes on the menu. I ordered the potato skins starter which came as a large portion which I enjoyed followed by Whitby scampi, this was average with frozen scampi. My wife had garlic mushrooms for starter which was okay, for main she had steak pie which she said was very nice.

A rustic village pub, which is popular with the local community. Nothing fancy but with a nice atmosphere. The food is AMAZING - locally sourced meats etc; home-cooked, and excellent value for money. I had the steak pie, which was outstanding - meat that melted and with suet pastry! I also had the treacle sponge with custard (made with milk! 😀) This is the second visit and looking forward to the next visit.

Amazing food the belly pork is to die for and the desert of sticky toffee pudding and pineapple was delicious and I don’t usually have deserts well recommended staff very friendly

Booked the brewery tour package from Red Letter days. The tour was very informative with Josh being a fountain of knowledge and obviously loving brewing and beer. His witty remarks and low key humour really made the tour enjoyable. The beer tasting in the bar was flexible and offered a pint taken eith as a pint, two halves or a flight of 3, third pints to enable a range to be tried! Although a small brewery they have some quite advanced mechanisation for bottling, canning and casking! Very impressed,

Sorry should have left a review long before now. Last stayed here in June, third or fourth stay here now for myself and my wife, as we came up with friends who had not stayed in the area before. Lovely stay as always and well looked after by Lottie and the staff. Rooms are not "The Grand", but that's exactly why we love this place, it's a cottage feel! Yes, you may be able to hear other guests from time to time, but it's not IBIZA!! Have always found other guests to be friendly and chatty too, which is nice. A relaxed atmosphere with nice people in a lovely location. If you want a nice comfortable stay in the company of good honest people with lovely surroundings and in a great location then Cottage Leas is ideal. Will definitely be returning, and will 100% be ordering the black pudding and bacon stack!

This is a traditional pub that seems very popular. It has its own brewery on site that you can visit for £11 pp including tasting. We just had lunch. There’s an extensive menu of typical pub fare as well as some more interesting dishes. The rare beef sandwich on very fresh brown bread was very well filled and was served with chunky chips. The ciabatta toasties were very satisfying too. The person who ordered duck pâté as a lighter meal found that there was enough pâté to warrant more than a couple of small pieces of bread and when more was requested it was provided. Everyone’s side salad was a bit sad as the mixed leaves were past their best.
