The best restaurants in Derwent Ryedale Yorkshire and The Humber

Just thoroughly enjoyed coronation chicken sandwiches. Great portion sizes, very fresh and very tasty. Fresh salad accompaniments. I would highly recommend Dogh for a very enjoyable lunch. Nothing but praise this place.

Amazing place very traditional and welcoming Karen the landlady makes you feel welcome and at home, food served is second to none highly recommend to anyone visiting the area 😀

On holiday in the area. Didn’t book, but being a Monday wasn’t very busy, some establishments are closed at the beginning of week. My wife and I and two dogs were made very welcome in the bar area. A good pub menu, we chose starters, my wife opting for the spring rolls and myself roasted cheese on garlic bread with bbq sauce and salad on the side, starters didn’t disappoint. Mains, my wife choosing the steak pie, myself the gammon steak, each served with the usual accompaniments. Neither disappointed, I got a wee taster of the steak pie and so succulent. No room for dessert. Would definitely recommend. Vert good price.

The Priory restaurant at Burythorpe house offered us a marvellous lunch in every respect. The food was excellently cooked and presented. My starter of treacle-cured salmon with ginger dressing was refreshing and arranged beautifully on the plate with a type of rice cracker creation. Both our main courses were simple but cooked to perfection with fine attention to detail. I hope the chefs read this review. For dessert my partner had a sticky toffee pudding and said it was amazing, the best he had ever tested and I had a hard job keeping my hands off it, except mine was just as good - a ginger cake with rhubarb and white chocolate. It's hard to explain the depth of flavour, but in the case of the ginger cake, it came from contrasting textures and colours. For example, the fresh stewed rhubarb was accompanied by pureed rhubarb dressing the balls of white chocolate and little pieces of dried rhubarb creating a chewie, nuttier background flavour. These guys really know what they are doing. Our waitress was friendly, attentive and offered perfect service. The interior is elegant and unpretentious country house style. From the dining room we looked out onto fields with a church just visible in the distance. We will definitely go again. This place is only about 10 minutes drive from Malton and offers a far superior dining experience to more local pubs and restaurants.

The cafe was closed when we went but it’s a lovely place to stare at the lake and enjoy the calmness and the ducks.

Too few staff but staff they do have are lovely. Good food if not a little pricey.

From the welcome as we arrived to the last spoonful of pudding this was one of the best Sunday lunches we’ve had for some time. Beautifully slow cooked tasty beef, great veggies, home roast potatoes and Yorkshires - the rhubarb pannacotta was perfection - and hubby’s sticky toffee pudding disappeared so fast I didn’t get a taste! Fantastic setting, lovely walks down to the river and ruins. Faultless!

We we were en route and saw this pub which looked decent enough. We were planning to just have a sandwich , which I did and it was very good, a real plateful for £7.25 and my husband had the scampi. We both agreed that the chips were superb . The service was warm and welcoming, the garden area was great ( but too hot for us to use ) . The place looks like it needs a bit of TLC but the food and service are worth calling in for .

Great Sunday lunch. We called in and had a drink whilst waiting for a table to become available. Firstly the beer is extremely well kept and tastes great. Secondly our food came out piping hot, the roast beef was succulent, roast potatoes properly crisped and the Yorkshire pudding was one of the best we've had. All vegetables were served generously in a separate dish. Portion sizes are very generous and we didn't have room for dessert. This is a little gem of a pub. Traditional style with friendly service. Prices are more than reasonable for the standard of food and drink here. We will definitely be back again.

Amazing Sunday lunch here today, the roast beef was exceptional. Really warm atmosphere and welcoming, friendly staff.

Staff very pleasant and lovely meal. Only offering a limited 'early in the year' menu but we both found something we liked. Lovely starter of Korean chicken skewers and very nice sea bass main. Portion size was good. No room for puds. Fixed price 2/3 course menu was v good value for money I felt. Haven't been for a while but always had a very positive experience and very nice food, even the time when we walked in and I had managed to book a Crown and Cushion in another part of the country! They were very helpful and found room for us and didn't make a fuss about it at all.

We had a very nice lunch with a friendly service from start to finish and good food. As another reviewer had commented, too many dogs, one in particular was very vociferous throughout our lunch. The owners were oblivious. We are dog lovers and have owned them in the past but we feel that everywhere you go to eat these days dogs are almost always allowed. The Courtyard Cafe has an outside seating area which ok isn’t great when it rains but please Castle Howard consider providing a dog free zone. Thank you.
