The best restaurants serving British food in Cropton Ryedale Yorkshire and The Humber

Small and cosy tea room where we enjoyed the most beautiful family afternoon tea. Just a lovely way to end our weeks stay in North Yorkshire. The bread for the sandwiches was so soft, tea was served with free top ups and scones freshly made from the oven and warm to eat. Cakes were beautiful too and there was more than enough for all 6 of us to enjoy. Ages ranged from 10-44yrs and enjoyed by all. If you like a bit of nostalgia and like afternoon tea, this is the place to go. We would highly recommend The Middleton Tea Rooms.

This is a traditional pub that seems very popular. It has its own brewery on site that you can visit for £11 pp including tasting. We just had lunch. There’s an extensive menu of typical pub fare as well as some more interesting dishes. The rare beef sandwich on very fresh brown bread was very well filled and was served with chunky chips. The ciabatta toasties were very satisfying too. The person who ordered duck pâté as a lighter meal found that there was enough pâté to warrant more than a couple of small pieces of bread and when more was requested it was provided. Everyone’s side salad was a bit sad as the mixed leaves were past their best.
