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

It would look like I’m beating a drum for this pub! But we keep going back because to be honest it is just such good value. Tried their two steaks for £20, choice of rump, sirloin or ribeye, we both went for sirloin, superb, cooked as we wanted, medium rare, salad, mushrooms, peas, onion rings, and a separate bowl of chips. You must try it! I also think you will find it harder to get a better pint of bitter, landlady told me lines are cleaned at the change of every barrel as well as normal cleaning.

A few years since our last visit, glad to be back. Fabulous hosts, great food and a lovely traditional feel. Location is perfect for visiting Castle Howard, Helmsley and all the local places of interest.

Amazing atmosphere and really good Guinness.
