The best restaurants in North Duffield Selby Yorkshire and The Humber

A special Sunday lunch for 10 celebrating my parents’ 70th Anniversary and my mum’s 90th birthday. The food was delicious and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, they were all so accommodating and kind, even down to my parents being offered a drink on the house, mum really enjoyed her whisky, brought quite a twinkle to her eyes, and sorting out the cake I’d taken. I can highly recommend The Black Dog and can’t thank the staff enough for helping to make our celebration lunch so memorable.

We had a table for five to celebrate my nephew's eighteenth birthday. Started off with a couple of drinks in the bar at the front and a game of pool waiting for everyone to arrive. Restaurant area was very spacious and the staff are friendly and attentive. The food we ordered was absolutely delicious. Each mouthful took me back to many a Mediterranean holiday. You couldn't deny the authentic flair. The chicken wings were unbelievable in flavour. We also ordered halloumi which was delicious with the chilli jam. The calamari never lasted two minutes on the table, I never had any but it smelled amazing. My nephew had the T Bone steak and again, cooked to perfection and was a very good sized and tasty piece of meat. I asked for a surprise and I got a mixed grill of which I was able to have my fill and take some home. Delicious salads, dips and flatbreads. Again, lovely, friendly and attentive staff and a great choice of food on the menu. The staff all came out to sing happy birthday at the end of the meal bringing out my nephew's birthday cake which we felt was another lovely touch. Recently having moved back to the village I'm just gutted we never went sooner. We need to make sure we do not lose this gem of a venue on our doorstep.

We came across this lovely pub after going for a walk around Skipwith Common. We were welcomed in by friendly staff and they found us a table even though we hadn’t booked. The bar areas is as nice as the restaurant and there was a gorgeous fire to warm us up. There was plenty to choose from on the menu and we went for the pigs in blankets starter and onion bahjis starter. They were both fantastic and served after some fresh bread and butter. We went for the sharing steak board for mains and it was cooked to perfection! The steak sauces were peppercorn and blue cheese which is exactly what we would have chosen! My partner had plenty of beers to choose from and there were so many gins. We were so happy we popped in and will absolutely be coming back again. Thank you so much for a lovely meal.

One of the worst sunday lunches ever cold meat and veg burnt Yorkshire pudding sent it back to get warmed up came back couple minutes later still with the burnt Yorkshire pudding which was now like a rock not big or even medium portions found it expensive as were the drinks staff need to be trained in hygiene as every waiter and waitress were stroking customers dogs no apologies from waiting staff or management
