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

An amazingly good meal . Everything just beautiful . Go , go , go ! Unfortunately , we couldn't stay as the bedrooms were fully booked , but I hope we can come back another time . We loved the meal , the wine pairing and the staff . One of the best meals we have had.

As part of that 'tasting menu' trend, if that's what you're after, you won't be disappointed. A lovely dining room, with semi-open kitchen and very attentive and knowledgeable staff. Crockery and artwork come from local creators, and adds to that 'local food producer' ethos. A destination eatery for grownups!

My wife, son and I stopped by for a coffee and a scone. The scones were top drawer. The staff were very polite, service was good.

In all of the hustle and bustle of the Christmas Market and the hordes of people traversing the Shambles it would be very easy to overlook the hidden gem that is Sandwitches. We almost did, but by chance noticed it and ventured in out of the crowds. In such a small setting we were not hopeful of a table but as luck had it there was one free on the first floor. The cafe promises 2 floors of themed and informal dining and it did not disappoint. The chairs were comfortable, tables felt a little low (but I'm well over 6 foot so most things are) but the surroundings were cosy and the staff were quick and attentive. We were there at lunch time so my partner ordered a Sandwich and I had the steak and mushroom filled jacket. Considering there was not much difference in the price, we felt the Sandwich was a bit disappointing. 4 triangles on supermarket bread and basically some crisps... But on the other hand, when you order a sandwich in a cafe... You get what you get and you don't get upset! My loaded jacket was excellent, steak was a little bit over how I prefer it (blue/rare)... but I'm fairness, I didn't ask for it a certain way and I'm not exactly sure what the random dusting on the edges of the serving plate was meant to be but it definitely didn't have a negative impact on the taste meal as a whole. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Couldn't have picked a nicer, more intimate place to celebrate our anniversary! Staff must have legs of steel going up and down those stairs all day and still keeping a smile on their faces! If you changed the bread on the Sandwiches to be home/local bakery made or even a thick farmhouse/crusty it would have been 5* without question and if we were more local we would definitely be back!!

It was my first visit and I was not disappointed. I loved all the restaurants, cafes and shops. It was market day while we were there but as it had snowed, only a few stalls came. We certainly got friendly service from the stall holders though. I shall go back for another visit soon, but book everything in advance, especially the restaurants, which get very busy.

Amazing cakes & scones, & the coffee is great! Well worth a visit Can not recommend enough, they definitely went out of their way to help when we had an issue with our accommodation - thank you so much Will definitely visit again when back up in Yorkshire

Pub with plenty of character. Good choice on menu, Yorkshire sized portions and food of good quality. Staff friendly, welcoming and helpful. One perhaps drawback for some in having to use public pay and display car parks. Convenient though.

We are regulars at beadlam grange and often have a Sunday lunch which is lovely but todays was exceptional we will definitely be booking in for next Sunday

Out for anniversary dinner, Bar service was good, resturant service fair, food poor. Boiled potatoes only warm More Broccoli stalks than the edible part Muscle sauce served with the fish, may as-well have been cream without being cooked Will not be returning

We have visited this cafe before but just for a drink inside the modern cafe area. This time the extended family (8) decided on food as well. Sitting outside in a shaded area everyone enjoyed their food choices, with the Monk's Pottage being a bit of a highlight! If you are visiting the Abbey, be sure to stop and refresh in the cafe.

I received a very warm welcome, friendly service and lovely food. It can be daunting going into a pub as a woman on your own on a Friday evening, but they made me feel welcome and found me a quiet table where I could work on my laptop before moving on to my next thing- I had 2 hours to kill and I appreciated that they didn’t hassle me to move on. I found quite a few vegetarian dishes on the menu- I had the Brie and it was really nice.

Having not been in here for a while I ventured in this week wondering if it was still the nice welcoming place I remembered from my last visit. I am pleased to report it still is. Rach remains the friendly, professional anchor and recent recruit Sally seems like an excellent addition to the staff, who of course are the most important ingredient in any cafe. Thoroughly enjoyable experience and I am more than happy to recommend it.
