The best restaurants serving British food in Middleton Tyas Richmondshire Yorkshire and The Humber

Charming ambience… subtle lighting… warm and welcoming. We had the smaller tasting menu. The food was superbly presented , delicious flavours with exciting combinations and seasonal influences… this food rivals the Fat Duck and L Enclume as well as the Raby Hunt but at a fraction of the price … Congratulations to this stunningly talented young chef and his team. The wines too were sensibly priced with a good selection to choose from…. We work in hospitality so feel well place to assess… we know what hard work goes into it to keep very high standards… An amazing place on the up and coming …. Great to have it in the area… Austin Lynch Millgate House Richmond

Wow. Utterly incredible. The tasting menu was so incredibly thought out, even for a gluten free menu where you would usually feel like an afterthought. Lots of different food combinations and exquisite pairings. Every single one of the staff from the chefs to the servers were 5 star. Thank you!

Visited the restaurant while on an overnight stay. The Coach House is a relaxed venue with friendly, well trained staff. Drinks were served to our table with impressive speed while we perused the menu. Service slowed from there - especially between starters and mains. We enjoyed the beautifully presented beetroot and asparagus salad- and the wild garlic soup was well received though a small bread roll would have been welcome. The white pork T bone got a thumbs up but there were issues with the flat iron steak main course. The meat was well prepared and served medium - as ordered. However, it came with chopped lettuce leaves which masqueraded on the menu as a ‘house salad’. There was also a half of a medium sized griddled tomato and chips (fluffy and crisp) which had just as many ‘scrappy’ examples as there were ‘chunky’. Just a little extra on this plate would have made all the difference. A further disappointment was the pan au chocolat bread and butter pudding which seemed to be void of the spices usually associated with such a dish and came with a really meagre quenelle of ice cream. I can understand why this restaurant is popular but I feel there is a question mark over value for money.

Where to start? We were staying with family in Richmond for a bank holiday weekend break and went here for Sunday lunch. We arrived just one minute after our booking time to be greeted with an exasperated “at last” from the manager, which was rather ironic given the length of time we subsequently had to wait for our food. We were seated at our table in a virtually empty restaurant and ordered our food and drinks. Some 40 minutes later, we were finally served with our first course, the quality of which was underwhelming to say the least. About an hour and quarter after we arrived, and after a query from us about what was happening, we received our main courses. They were all no more than lukewarm. The roast beef dinners cost £22.95 each and I don’t think anything on them was actually cooked in the restaurant kitchen. It was so obviously mediocre quality bought-in packs from a catering company. Drinks were ordered but not brought until we reminded the staff. One drink was finally brought to the table as were about to leave. There was no member of staff in the dining room to whom we could complain but eventually the manager asked, in passing, how the food was. Unfortunately he didn’t actually stop at the table long enough to hear my reply. To add insult to injury, when we were presented with the bill, a 10% voluntary service charge had been added which, not unexpectedly, we declined to pay. All in all, we left feeling that we had been ripped-off, spoiling what we had hoped would be a happy family meal.

Must get here at 5am sharp for bakes or 11am for pizzas to get anything hot. Had 2 steak bakes at 5.20am today which were barely warm. Their shelves are just full of stone cold steak, chicken bakes which are sickly or stone cold pizzas with a very thick base little topping which I endup feeding the crows.
