The best restaurants serving British food in Selby Yorkshire and The Humber

Had the Roast Chicken Sunday Lunch and was impressed. A very generous serving for a regular portion, and a really decent price of £12.15 for my soft drink and lunch. A very tasty lunch with plenty of chicken and an extra jug of gravy and managed to finish it. The only point to mention would be that the roast potatoes weren't great. Would highly recommend.

"I visited this cafe for the first time today with a friend for lunch. As someone who frequently visits cafes, I found the manager's behavior to be quite unusual. We asked our server, a young girl, if we could purchase a sandwich and chips to share, as we weren't very hungry. We also ordered separate hot drinks. However, the server seemed hesitant and said, 'I don't think the owner will like this.' She then left and returned with the message that sharing food was not allowed. "I politely expressed my surprise, stating that I had never encountered such a policy before. The server simply repeated that sharing was not permitted. I found this approach to be overly controlling and focused solely on making a profit. If my friend hadn't been with me, I would have left immediately. In my opinion, customers should always have the freedom to choose how they want to enjoy their food. Unfortunately, the food wasn't impressive either. I would not recommend this cafe or return."

They only do Sunday lunch. They have one high chair, but kids are welcome. No outdoor play area. Lunch was really nice, especially the lamb shank. Would recommend for more adult eating unless you are not staying long with a very young child.

Lovely sandwiches and amazing lemon meringue pie on offer. The staff are amazing, so friendly and warm. Worth a visit.

We go twice a week every week unless the owners are on holiday. That to me is a good recommendation.

Never fails to deliver brilliant home cooked food. Visit often but the steak and kidney pie last week was truly outstanding. As a southerner in Yorkshire so few places actually do kidney with most being ale or just steak. It was jam packed with both steak and kidney, all delicious. Soups are something else too. Sandwiches are always fantastic, fresh and full of excellent fillings. A big shout out not only to Lisa but especially the lovely Ellie out front

Met a friend for coffee here. Wasn't expecting much during these times of covid, but it was a delight. Sat outside under an umbrella big enough to keep off a shower. Excellent coffee served by a very friendly young student waitress. Delightful people and a lovely little dog. Will be back.

Nos alojamos en el sitio así reservado para el desayuno del domingo. Pequeña selección de opciones de desayuno. Personal muy amable. Habitación muy limpia que se une al bar. Vista agradable a una sala de estar al aire libre. Tuvimos un desayuno pequeño y grande todo cocinado a la perfección y productos de buena calidad muy sabrosos. Sin duda probaremos su almuerzo del domingo en una futura visita.

A regular stop off whenever we’re in Selby. The food is fantastic whether it’s a quick snack, full on Sunday lunch or special occasion. Mat, Gemma, Di, Chaba & all the staff are polite, respectful and… efficient. An enjoyable experience. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Very glad to post the pub has new owners who are great, the last landlord was not good, the villagers are over the moon with the new owners and wish them well.

Great pub, with excellent selection of beers at reasonable prices. I would recommend anyone coming to Selby to give it a try....

New tenant in situ. Atmosphere is much improved and more welcoming. Food now available - decent pub styled food choices without any frills. Prices as expected. Beer choices are good with excellent draught beer (Farmers Blonde and Timothy Taylor) plus a myriad of lagers. Quiz night on Sundays. A really pleasant local. Worth a visit.

sadly both meals went back mine was gammon and was so dry and chewy and the wifes was chicken kiev with hardly any garlic butter filling , again so dry . so disappointing as this was my birthday meal out . we go quite a lot here BUT will be giving a wide berth from now on ....

Didn't have various things that were on the menu. First time visiting cawood.

I love to cook Sunday Lunch and often when I go out for the same I want it to be better than mine and this place smashed it out of the park. Amazing service from the moment we arrived . It was incredibly busy but they made us feel like we were the only ones there. We had 12 on the party and food was fast and delicious. Roast beef was tender and flavoursome great roasties, amazing yorkers, veg fresh and lashings of gravy and they even got the birthday girl a free glass of wine. Puddings were all demolished tye treacle sponge took me back 25 years.. simply the best Sunday dinner I have had out and the whole party agrees. Simply sensational and can't wait to go back.
