This North Yorkshire village inn is a 'proper' pub run by a friendly team, so you’ll always find plenty of locals in the bar. The kitchen team work away behind a large glass window on a short, appealing menu that marries together complementary local ingredients in vibrant, flavoursome dishes. Portions are generous and a good value Bistro Menu is available too. The site also houses seven bedrooms, making it a good base from which to explore York, Harrogate and Castle Howard.
