Only one Yorkshire restaurant has made into the ‘Top 50’, in the new 2015 Waitrose Good Food Guide out on Monday and that’s the Yorke Arms at Ramsgill. Our congratulations to Frances Atkins.
Today, the guide listed for the first time their ‘Top 50’ pubs. Number one is not in Yorkshire, but the Freemason’s Arms is not far away, just over the border in Wiswell, Lancashire. Second is the Hand and Flowers in Bucks and third is the Red Lion at East Chisenbury, Wiltshire. Yorkshire did OK though with five pubs on the list. Yorkshire and nearby counties are rated as follows:
6 The Pipe and Glass at South Dalton [picture]
20 The Broad Chare, Newcastle
31 The White Hart, Lydgate, Oldham
32 The General Tarleton, Knaresborough
36 The Bay Horse, Hurworth on Tees
