We care about the origins of our meat! Our beef is all from North Yorkshire, particularly Ryedale. Where possible we use a Hereford Cross– an old English breed noted for its tenderness and flavour– particularly as it is raised on the rich pastures of the Yorkshire Dales. Our Pork is all free range– known as 'fresh air' pigs they are an award winning cross of a Hampshire and Landrace pig. They are traditionally fed, and reared outdoors in Stillington, near York, using best husbandry and practices to achieve a happy well flavoured pig! Our Lamb is mainly from John Worsley of Denby Dale. He and his wife have a flock of Texel cross sheep which are a good meat producer that originates from the Netherlands. This breed is noted for their good muscle tone and flavour.
Some dishes contain nuts and nut derivatives. Please enquire if you have any allergies. To the best of our knowledge, none of our dishes contain any GM products.
A service charge is not included– gratuities are left entirely to your own discretion.

Each of our Chefs, Sarah, Mark and Rory have designed 2 starters & 2 main courses. Each month we see whose dishes have been most popular. June’s most popular starter was the Smoked Mackerel Pate, designed by Gary, and the most popular main course was a tie between Sarah’s Rack of lamb, and Gary’s Halibut with Anchovy butter and two pepper sauce! So~ who’s going to win July?
