The best restaurants serving British food in Yorkshire and The Humber

Un lugar tan hermoso en Chapel Allerton. La comida era fantástica con el personal excelente conocimiento del vino ayudándonos a elegir el acompañamiento perfecto del vino. ¡No puedo esperar a volver! La escena gastronómica de North Leeds sigue mejorando.

Just provided catering for my mother-in-law funeral wake. Obviously a difficult time that we wanted to go perfectly and it did. The interaction, consideration and service from Alexanders has been impeccable. Everyone from 3yr old to 80yr old loved the food. I can never thank you enough. Very appreciative.

The food was good, but I am bewildered as to why neither the pizza or garlic bread were not sliced, if I had known I would have ordered somewhere else, and am mainly leaving this review to remind me in future, I think it's a very basic expectation when ordering a pizza.

Excellent tasty takeaway. The Korean chicken was incredible and the katsu curry was delicious too. Definitely worth giving JD a try!! Quick delivery and big portions for the price. Great value for money. Will 100% order from here again.

Bit of a hidden gem with the best cake I’ve had in a while!

My wife and I visited last night for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We loved it - the staff were lovely and made us feel very welcome. The complimentary homemade bread, hummus and oil was a real treat along with the pallet cleanser between courses. The food and menu choice we thought was exceptional, as was the wine (Chablis). Brilliant atmosphere. A fantastic evening - definitely recommended.

Willowgate Bistro – A Five-Star Culinary Treasure If I could give Willowgate Bistro more than five stars, I would. This remarkable restaurant is, without doubt, one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve ever had—and it deserves to be recognised at the very highest level, Michelin star and beyond. The chef is an absolute genius. His ability to combine bold, imaginative flavours with flawless technique is rare. Every dish is a masterstroke, showcasing not just skill, but true passion. This is not food you simply eat—it’s food you remember. But what truly elevates Willowgate Bistro from excellent to extraordinary is the experience as a whole. The chef’s wife is the heart of the front of house—warm, attentive, and effortlessly charming. Her hospitality made the evening feel personal and special, as though we were dining with old friends. Together, they create magic. This is not just a restaurant. It’s a love story—between the food, the people, and the passion that binds it all together. An absolute gem that deserves all the recognition in the world. Book a table, go hungry, and prepare to be amazed.

Vinimos aquí en base a las críticas en TripAdvisor y no decepcionó. Tuvimos patatas fritas de bacalao y guisantes y patatas fritas de eglefino y guisantes entre nosotros y ambas comidas eran deliciosos 😋 especialmente los guisantes empapados en casa que se puede condimentar a su propio gusto. La comida estaba caliente (no me gusta la comida tibia o fría) , cocinada maravillosamente, y porciones de buen tamaño. El personal era muy bueno - eficiente y muy amable.

We booked here as we were staying in Thirsk, and there wasn’t many options in Thirsk! Not just that, but this place had fab reviews. Wow!! What a sleepy village but a lucky village. The service, the atmosphere, but most of all, the food was all exceptional. My wife is a veggie, and they have a great vegan menu, and we can be fussy! We just want good food, and sometimes places are reviewed as great, but they’re not that at all. You won’t be disappointed here. Trust me 😁. It’s a pub with fine restaurant food!! 😍

Second visit here and loved it. A slight wait on the food but all made fresh on site so worth the wait. Breakfast is delicious. Staff always friendly and welcoming. Good atmosphere too. Will return again.

This was our 1st visit, but will become a place to go when we visit the area. Super friendly hosts, the food was exceptional, one of the best, if not the best Sunday lunches we have had. The service was superb and the prices were reasonable. We have paid more for lunch that wasn't as good as this. We will definitely be back.

Tapas style food drip fed to table. Took 30 mins for our drinks order to arrive and a further 30 mins for some bread and pesto. Onion bhajis were a little large for my taste and smelled burned but were good. Halloumi was nice. Marsala cod couldn't taste marsala but was tasty none the less. Truffle chips came after this main course which was an odd timing. Wife had some sort of meat which she enjoyed. Larger not sold in pints but 3/4 pints. Drinks expensive by comparison. If possible get seated upstairs as downstairs lacks atmosphere. Service was slow to start as mentioned above. Was nice to spend some quality time kid free so overall enjoyed the night Neal cost £90 which was probably £20 too much to be honest.

Great food, great staff, and all GF 👍🏽

Mainly good service although the dishes were a bit hit and miss. Altogether an enjoyable experience but seemed pricey. A great looking venue.

¡Absolutamente brillante! Hemos comido aquí por 3 de 4 noches! Comida increíble, servicio excepcional! ¡Karl fue excepcional! ¡Gracias! Sin duda volveremos de nuevo!
