The best restaurants in York Yorkshire and The Humber

I love this pub, we always head here whenever stopping in York. It has great little hideaways upstairs.

Went to Cote for dinner today with my family and it took them 1 h 20 to bring us our food and then when food came, it was very average. I had a chicken dish which was cooked so much it was tough to cut and came with reheated roasted potatoes. A few of the group had steaks which were chewy and came with very sad dry green leaves. All very disappointing.

Very good food and good choice of drinks, staff very friendly and helpful.

Very much on the short list of our favourite local pubs

The Breakfast at the Blue Barbakan is excellent. My wife had the American Pancakes and absolutely enjoyed it. I had the Buckwheat Pancakes with the Polish Sausage which was unique and the mustard based sauce was mild and flavourful. We first went here a couple of years ago and can confirm the quality has never dropped and the staff are extremely friendly and attentive.

Been here a few times. Always a popular pub for food and ales. Very good selection of beers. And a separate backroom for great Pizza's. The old tilled walls are from the original building/Butchers give the pub a unique Providence. Very busy at weekends with occasional live music. Well worth a visit.

This restaurant is a little gem serving a limited, but wide ranging, menu which ought to satisfy everyone. The food is, without exception, interesting, innovative and very well cooked or, in the case of deserts, very well prepared and put together. The two dining rooms, while not glamorous, are cosy and comfortable. You don't come to this place to show off, rather you come here because the food is superb. Service is brilliant too. Very friendly and helpful staff and no rushing. 2 minutes from the Minster, 10 minutes from the station, and backing onto the city walls, this place is easy to find and very accessible. I really can't recommend No 8 Bistro highly enough

Walked in Went to the bar Got told table service Sat down at table Waited 10 mins Didn't get table service Left.

A little on the pricey side- would recommend going early for the early bird menu. Would recommend booking in advance if planning to go on a Saturday evening. Food is tasty. Nice atmosphere but can be chilly if seated by the doors. Great service- attentive and friendly. Only one toilet which is placed just outside the kitchen so if it’s occupied you will find yourself standing in the way of the staff and in front of other diners (I can understand this is not their fault but just to be weary of). Only thing we had which I wouldn’t recommend is the pad see ew as it didn’t have that nice smokey, charred taste to it. The pad kee mow was delicious (as was everything else)!

Beautiful food and lovely people! Banana fritters are delish!!

My mum had the todays special which one of the chefs made today my mum loved every minute and bite even wanted more to take home because it was that good definitely 100% my mum would have it again and 100% recommend it 😊

Love the hotel, nice plentiful breakfast

We had Halloumi, Haddock, Chips and a chicken burger. IT SHOULD.BE CONSIDERED A SIN TO NOT EAT THAT FOOD. It was melting in mouth, soft and delicious. Staff over there is great as well.

Found this little gem of a restaurant through trip advisor and we weren’t disappointed. We had the staters deep fried pickles and the fried shrimp then mains we both had the beefy boy burger and for desert the crème brûlée and key lime pie. Could not fault any part of the food and the service is exceptional, friendly and attentive. Highly recommend

This place is incredible, we were so impressed and thoroughly enjoyed our food which was imaginative fresh and delicious. We had a mixed platter and we couldn’t believe how generous it would be and the quality was superb, just perfect.
