“In a charming and historic building” dating from the 17th century, the Hjort family’s “really pleasant and relaxing” venue was reborn some years ago in this guise, which reprises the ethos of their original York venue, Melton’s. The “regularly changing menu” offers top Gallic fare, with fishy options recommended this year as an “excellent choice” on a visit.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
