The best restaurants serving British food in Knaresborough King James Harrogate Yorkshire and The Humber

Lovely staff--nothing too much trouble. Tried a cake similar to a fat rascal but more moist with lots of almonds/pistachios.

Mao's Thai take away was a massive treat, but due to conflict between landlord and tenant closed now, a real shame.

Garbage service, garbage food! Ignored me as i waited, then served the drunk who que jumped ahead of us!! Won't bother again.

Visited the cafe when we were in Knaresbrough. The cafe was clean the staff were friendly. Beautiful views of the river. The breakfast was delicious you could tell the ingredients were fresh and cooked to perfection 🫶 their coffee and hot chocolate were also very good. Would definately visit again.

Was here today with the lovely Ursula. What a gorgeous little spot! Right in the market square with outdoor and indoor seating. We were attended to by the lovely Kelsey. The food is amazing. We had toasted roast ham, cheddar and red pepper sandwiches in sundried tomato bread. Absolutely yumptious!! It was accompanied with their homemade coleslaw, crisps and a slice of cucumber and orange with a grape stuck in the centre of each, a lovely unique touch. Their latte is great and smashing value for money! Overall a most enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!

Good honest food. Freshly cooked and delicious! Staff friendly, helpful and nothing too much trouble. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Owned by the Chef this friendly riverside tearoom offers a wide range of cakes, plus hot meals cooked to order. Parking.

Stumbled on this little eatery while visiting Knaresborough on a Sunday lunch time. We went in to get maybe a sandwich and thought it wasn’t going to be great to be honest but ended up having a cooked lunch and it was so good! The place was busy and you could tell they were locals as they were chatting across to each other. We looked at the menu and decided to have have a cooked meal. I ordered pie chips and peas and my husband a burger with chips salad and coleslaw and a pot of tea. You could actually get a 3 course Sunday lunch for £14.50! When mine came there were no peas but another bowl soon arrived full of fresh vegetables and a big jug of gravy. Food was really good the staff were lovely. The lady said that as she had been cooking Sunday lunches she gave me some of the veg. We were thoroughly impressed and wouldn’t hesitate to visit again. Great food and great value for money! Definitely worth trying!

Perfect place for a warm stew for a bit of the cold weather. Impeccable service

Wow, what can I say about The Dower House Hotel that hasn't already been said! We had our beautiful wedding there on December 6, 2024, and everything was amazing. All the staff went above and beyond for us. The food was simply the best. Our bedroom was amazing, and a massive thank you to Jade and the staff for making it perfect. I have never seen such a beautiful venue, and all of our guests were in love, too. It makes it even better that we had asked for all the Christmas decorations to be up (if possible), and it was just beautiful. Well done to all who work there! I will be forever singing your praises. Highly recommend for any wedding, party, or simply a beautiful meal. It won't disappoint you at all. Worth every penny and more.

A nice small cafe. Friendly atmosphere and lovely food.

A beautiful cafe on the riverside, it was a crisp sunny morning when we visited so we decided to sit outside to enjoy the view. We both had small veggie breakfasts with hot drinks. They do get busy (good sign) but they let you know the wait time before they seat you. We didn't mind waiting when the views are lush.

This place has changed its name now and I can’t remember what it’s called. I went in for a sandwich which was lovely but the place…. Oh goodness! It really needs a rethink. It’s tiny and full of heavy tables and bulky old furniture that makes it really difficult to get around. It’s not shabby chic unfortunately, it’s missing the chic!! Outside looks ok but the new owners need to have a rethink of the interior. Also, when people leave it’s a good idea to clean the tables! Its not inviting to come in and see that tables haven’t been cleaned and there’s no excuse when the place is so quiet.

Varied choice, good quality food, served promptly and with efficiency and above all-happily! Read the hotel review for more info!

There are 'good' welcomes...There are 'great' welcomes...and then there is a Danyella welcome! From the 1st moment she was delightful, helpful, absolutely charming and lovely! Lovely fire in the REAL grate! Good beers and altogether a smashing way to drink a few beers! Thank you!
