The best restaurants in York Yorkshire and The Humber

Went for a late lunch on Sunday. I'll keep it short. If there's a better steak to be had in York, I've yet to find it. It's not, of course, the cheapest, you get what you pay for.

What a fantastic restaurant! The food is delicious, freshly cooked and full of flavour. Great service too. I just cannot praise it enough!

Fabulous food in a cosy setting. We were served with a smile and an understanding of dietary needs which was a real comfort.

Dylan smashed it. Vibes were great, yap was solid, food was unreal. Smoothie straws made me giggle. Would recommend to a friend.

Oh wow! This place hits the spot in so so many ways! The service is brilliant (all the staff are super friendly, attentive and efficient) and the food is great. You might have to queue to get a table (we didn’t as we arrived fairly early) but the wait is well worth it. I had the avocado on sourdough bread (topped mine with two poached eggs) and it was fabulous-the kids had pancake stacks….light and fluffy with the best ever berries, and the son and his OH had the eggs Royale which they usually have. Luckily we visit often from Whitby and I think this will be a regular thing. Can’t wait to try an evening session…… I have to say I’m glad to have found somewhere in York that does great food at reasonable prices as we have ditched Betty’s for good (overpriced and mediocre) and Robinson’s will be our “go to” place from now on.

we would highly recommend this place, very friendly service, delicious food, beautiful scenery, and a cool retreat from the heat. overall a very lovely and relaxing experience.

Visited a few days before Xmas, it was a cold day so we were looking for somewhere dog friendly to eat inside, we stumbled upon this gem of a place, dogs allowed on entrance level, we had a few minute wait for a table but once seated our order was taken promptly and our drinks arrived, a lovely merlot wine and a lager, both were delicous, ive worked in the wine and spirit trade and I felt the choice on the drinks menu was 1st class, chosen to compliment the food and vibe of the place. We had 2 pizzas a salami and a pepperoni, our first choice the salt beef had sold out but we were really pleased with what we had, absolutely mouth watering and delicous. The staff were friendly and efficient and prices were very reasonable, will definately visit again when next in York.

No pudimos resistirnos a entrar a este fabuloso café cuando miramos por la ventana y vimos los fabulosos postres. Teníamos cappucino y canelones de pistacho sin gluten, absolutamente para morirse. Por lo tanto, no se pierda este gran establecimiento.

Vinimos para una comida de cumpleaños tardía y fue una experiencia maravillosa! La comida y el servicio era 10 / 10! Ambos tuvimos los chefs especiales y ambos probaron increíble ☺️ Las decoraciones de Navidad eran hermosas y Monika era el anfitrión perfecto para nosotros y me hizo sentir tan especial, sin duda volveremos! ❤️

Staff were very friendly, efficient and considerate. Service was fast. Food tasted amazing and was hot.

Mientras esperaba que mi esposa tuviera una cita cerca, entré por primera vez en el café y me sorprendí muy gratamente. Solo tomé una taza de té, pero sin duda me sentí tentado por los hermosos pasteles y salazones que se exhiben. Servicio amable y eficiente y decoración encantadora con mesas de madera. Sin duda volveré de nuevo en algún momento en el futuro cercano para probar la comida de aspecto encantador

Fantástico, acogedor café con buena comida. Excelente relación calidad-precio y ambiente animado. Olvídese de sus grandes cadenas de restaurantes o cafés en el centro de la ciudad, vaya aquí. ¡No te arrepentirás!

Duck and chips anyone? I’m quackers about the food at The Taylor Made Kitchen in The Shambles Market, with a highlight being the Peking Duck loaded fries. Please note, this was a special and so may be different when you visit - but I’ve had others and they’re all MAGIC! Skin-on fries topped with confit duck, hoisin sauce, plum sauce, siracha, Japanese mayo, kimchi, coriander and spring onions. I had the small (£7) but it was really substantial, also available as a large portion for £10. Nothing fowl about this dish, it was delicious! I’ve also tried the Pizza Fries, smothered in ooey gooey melted cheese. Too cheesy? No, I’ve made a career out of it! I’ve had their burgers too, the mac and cheese, and the festive poutine at Christmas. Coming to York? It’s worth poutine this one on your list. The Wizard of York (Wizard Walk of York)

Where do I start? This is my favourite place of all time. Any argument in my relationship is immediately resolved with just one word and that being 'Batanga' Not only are the staff brilliant but OMG the chef she is just amazing at what she does, My favourite thing in the world is nachos and she has taken them to a whole new level. I highly recommend for any occasion.
