The best restaurants in Saxton and Ulleskelf Selby Yorkshire and The Humber

On my birthday, we always go to Akbars in York as it's my favourite Indian restaurant outside of Bradford. I was disappointed to find it is closed and I really couldn't decide where else I wanted to go. Living in Sherburn In Elmet I've been to most of the Indian restaurants in this area, and while they are all OK, I have never been blown away by any of them. I stumbled upon Jahan Lounge just through doing a Google search on local Indian restaurants and thought I'd chance it, and thank God I did. The restaurant is tucked away in Scarthingwell Golf Club. There is ample parking too, which is handy. you need to go upstairs in the club building to get to the restaurant. The restaurant is tastefully presented with a nice ambience, and there is a good selection of drinks for all at the bar. The food is literally to die for. It is up there with the best curries I have ever had. I had lamb chops for starters, which were perfectly cooked and so tasty. For my main, I had a keema karahi, which wasn't on the menu, but when I asked, the waiter said, " No problem, sir, we can make that for you" The curry is what blew me away. It is probably in the top three meals I've ever had in my life. The chef here is at the top of their game. If you like a good curry, this is the place to go. I am so glad I have found Jahan lounge because I no longer need to drive all the way to Bradford anymore, I have found a hidden gem right on our doorstep.

sadly disappointed with this venue The food was ok plenty of it Our biggest concern was it was so cold that we ate our lunch in our coats I know that energy bills are high at the moment...but some heating would of been nice....my phone suggested it was 13 degrees...im of the opinion if you are open for business then your customers should be happy with food....drinks....and warmth

Friendly village pub with great food and great company. Dog friendly

sadly both meals went back mine was gammon and was so dry and chewy and the wifes was chicken kiev with hardly any garlic butter filling , again so dry . so disappointing as this was my birthday meal out . we go quite a lot here BUT will be giving a wide berth from now on ....

Lovely food yet again. Staff very attentive. Fourth visit now and well worth it. Quality of food is very good. Atmosphere in Bistro is nice. Will be visiting again.

Thank you so much for making my daughter’s day so so perfect! Nothing was too much trouble, your staff were so attentive, friendly and so professional. The food was out of this world. I am so very grateful to you all! 💕💕

The Ash Tree was buzzing on a Friday night - and I'm not surprised. Whoever's in the kitchen knows what they're doing. Lovely food, served in sizeable portions by competent friendly staff, made for a really good evening. Don't miss it.

Lovely spot for a coffee and bacon sandwich in the sun, weather permitting! Nice place to chill out and relax and watch the planes go by

A Tuesday lunch time so only 2 other people in. The staff were friendly and attentive, but unfortunately the food was disappointing. The two chicken skewers were OK but there wasn’t much chicken likewise the salad. The flatbread was hard and only minimal fries.Not worth almost £19. The beef in the steak sandwich was gristly but the chips were good and the fish in the sandwich was greasy. Would I return- probably not.
