Voted Best Restaurant in Ripon on TripAdvisor
Not only was it voted the best restaurant in Ripon, but it has also been voted as one of the best restaurants in North Yorkshire. The latest 2010 edition of Harden’s Good Food Guide calls us ” A jewel in the North Yorkshire crown; this restauran-with-rooms, nicely located near the Cathedral, has been refurbished with smart modern decor, but without detracting from the building’s ole worlde charm. The food, different, imaginative and very tasty – is always of the same high standard!” See www.hardens.com
Great Atmosphere
A subtle contemporary ambience has been created within the restaurant; you will be welcomed by the wood panelled walls, an open fireplace and contemporary furniture with interesting paintings, prints and sculptures for you to enjoy. The atmosphere in the restaurant is relaxed, comfortable and stylish.
Fresh, Local Produce
We try and source local and fresh ingredients wherever we possibly can, from Whole Hog sausages, Weatherheads butchers in Pateley Bridge, Manor House Farm, free range eggs from Thirsk, Holme Farmed venison from Sherburn in Elmet and all our cheese except the Lancashire(!) is from Yorkshire.
Award Winning Cooking
Since September 1st 2009 our team of chefs has been led by a new Head chef, a young man with a passion for food, Robert Harvey. He has worked in the team here for some years and has taken up his new role with skill and enthusiasm, serving “seriously good food” to quote a happy customer! With experience in London under Gary Rhodes, he is keen to make a name for himself here at the Old Deanery where we have been in the Good Food Guide since 2005, one of only 1200 restaurants in the country. We are recommended by the British Deer Farmer’s Association as one of the best places to eat venison, It is rarely off the menu.
