The best restaurants in Holgate York Yorkshire and The Humber

Absolutely spot on, £5.50 for a breakfast with a mug of tea or coffee and you can double up for £1... Best value breakfast around and all quality ingredients.

Brilliant breakfasts, lovely staff …

This place is amazing. The best Afternoon Tea I've ever had. Thank you!

A wonderful experience, should have won best pub in York this year but was robbed! The weekly quiz on a Wednesday is fantastic and full of fun and great times. Loads of stools, which is great!

It has been many years since I visited the railway museum so I decided to have a ride up there on the train whilst my wife was away for the week. The main hall has many excellent locos and carriages to view and some were on the East Coast main line when I was a young lad in the 50s. Perhaps they could put a " No standing in this area" sign up in front of the video screen on the bullet train. It is ridiculous that ignorant visitors just casually stroll right in front of it and stand there watching whilst the folk sitting in the seats trying to watch it cannot. As long as the handful of people can stand there and watch it, it obviously doesn't matter to them that 40 or 50 people sitting behind cannot see it. The other hall has many smaller exhibits but a lot of those in cases and shelves cannot be seen properly because some of the lights are not working. Must remember to take my head torch if I go again ! I did buy three fridge magnets in the shop but a lot of the stuff is over priced tat. Had something to eat in the city afterwards as there were no free tables in the museum.

Lovely place, brilliant staff, great atmosphere .

The most astonishing takeaway, in York oh my goodness, is how kind, thoughtful, and lovely they are. I haven't seen anything like that before!

We came to the Carlton for a meal for my friends birthday I would like to say honestly the service I got from Aaron the barman was out of this world he was an amazing gentleman also may I say the food we got was outstanding so thank you chef the fish was the best fish I have ever tasted in a pub and thank you for putting candles in my friends ice cream A 1st class pub with an amazing team

Place need a up grade in the decor.

First visit since the refurb. Had the buy one get one free burger which were excellent value. Lovely succulent burger, not the horrible dry chargrilled versions you get elsewhere. Best one I have had in a pub in a long time. Lovely fresh salad, fries and proper onion rings. The mocha was excellent too. Superb value and will definitely be coming back again soon. Well done.

Nice staff, lovely food but ridiculously overpriced. I appreciate this is a touristic place and therefore prices will be hiked up a little, but that was over the top. Almost £4 for a slice of cake ?!

Service was slow and disinterested. 15 minutes to get a cup of tea and a croissant. It wasn’t clear which till to go to… although there were signs no one seemed to be manning the eat in till… We stood there for sometime clearly in need of service, smiling and waiting patiently but we were resolutely ignored by all 4 members of staff behind the counter. All of whom refused to even acknowledge our existence, make eye contact or look up… in most cafes or shops a simple ‘hello’ or ‘be with you in a moment’ or even a smile or nod is usual and I think is isn’t too much to expect. Another really odd quirk of this place is that you can’t see what they sell. A lot of the food is hidden in the window. In fact the whole layout is strange and I would say it’s stress inducing for staff and customers. When we finally received our extremely simple order which required virtually no preparation but inexplicably took forever (and it wasn’t busy). The teas came in tiny cups with no additional hot water provided and the plates holding the croissants were not big enough - they were like saucers. Everytime I visit (which despite living very near by isn’t often because they will not allow dogs) you get the feeling that the staff believe they are doing you a massive favour, none of them are ever welcoming or helpful. The food is usually ok but not great and it isn’t a pleasant space to sit in. I think this place is massively overrated and it seems to have a culture of treating customers like an inconvenience.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Spent 2 nights , perfect location to walk into York. Car park very handy. Decoration is gorgeous all very tasteful! Rooms very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Staff…amazing! All very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Will definitely stay here again

Delicious food, ordered over £100+ for delivery and the order was correct. Quick service. Highly recommend the pancake rolls and the salt & pepper chips in batter

Absolutely lovely as always, great value for money would recommend to anyone.
