Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

This little hideaway is the best fish restaurant around the coast of Scarborough! Fabulous food with a large variety to choose from. We always book for Saturday night bistro and have also been at lunch and breakfast. The kippers at breakfast were amazing. Lunch we had fish & chips and for dinner we enjoy fried calamari & whitebait or sometimes mussel's but always have the favourite lobster! Staff are always friendly and helpful and it has a relaxed atmosphere (not a dressy dress code but anything goes tbh, whether a birthday, group of friends or walkers after their walk and dogs are welcome. Just try it, you’ll likely be back!

Very good food and service and decent prices for quality well presented food .

We had our works Christmas meal here. The restaurant took pre-bookings of meal choices which made the service very quick and smooth on the evening. All the staff were very happy, helpful and attentive. The food was delicious and very generous portions. I personally found the beef bourguignon to be one of the best beef dishes I have every had! The restaurant was lovely, it would have just been nice to have some Christmas music in the background and maybe crackers on the table to make it feel festive. Overall, a lovely meal, thank you. We will be back :)

We absolutely love this place, the food is incredible and always offers something different. Lovely staff great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

We went for a family Sunday lunch. First of all we all agreed the food was good and we enjoyed it, however the service was bad. It took twenty minutes after ordering to get a bottle of wine or a gin and tonic. One of the party was gluten free and despite being made aware of this they brought the main course with Yorkshire pudding which was not gluten free. When trying to order liqueur coffees they did not have any amoretto and when we changed to Tia Maria they did not have any cream. I have to add here that there is an M & S food hall 50 yards along the road so they could have popped out and bought some!! The senior waitress was aware of what had happened and did apologise and we know there was a reduction in the bill. A shame as lovely food but spoiled by bad service.

Two of us booked for late Sunday lunch. Restaurant was busy but service was good. Roast beef was delicious and the vegetables were cooked well. Only issue for us was that the food could and should have been hotter.

An excellent lunchtime celebrating meal for our family. Catered for various food requirements to a very high standard and service was excellent.

From the minute we walked in the staff were friendly and helpful service with a smile ( which you don’t always get) the young waiters were polite and professional but with a smile. The food was perfect. Delicious. Will definitely recommend to friends n family, and we will be back .

Lovely Sunday lunch. Very good food, service and pleasant surroundings. Good atmosphere in restaurant and sensible prices.

First time at The Craven Arms and we’ll definitely be back. Food (and quality), service and atmosphere were on point and all felt very Christmassy - just lost a point for the cost of tea for 2 which seemed slightly excessive ….would recommend.

Lovely Sunday Lunch. We were in early so it was fairly quite, although more guests arrived over the next 20 minutes. Service was excellent and the food matched the service. We had a really pleasant and relaxing lunch in great surroundings. We loved it and will be back for more. I had the Roast Turkey and my wife had the Soup followed by Goats Cheese. Yum.

The food was great, with a nice atmosphere and we were served our meals before we needed another drink, so that is quick with my wife ha ha and great service, good value for the money. So we will be booking again. Thanks

Never been before and didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised. The food was lovely, the atmosphere was great, the staff were brilliant and really attentive. It was really calm and casual. We really enjoyed ourselves :-).

Lovely people, lovely cats, and lovely cake! Would always recommend!

Family birthday. Food excellent. Mussels with lime and coconut wonderful along with fish and chips, seabass in thai sweet chilli sauce. Highly recommended

I’ve eaten here a few times and everything was excellent as usual

Lovely Xmas meal last night with a group of friends restaurant was really busy but that did not affect the service all really good and helpful. Especially one young lad dark hair and glasses he was such a credit to the restaurant. Thanks for a good evening food 100%
