Yorkshire is known for hearty food, though bacon-based breakfasts and lunches of pork pies do tend to pale fairly quickly. Increasingly, the larger towns and cities, particularly Leeds, have developed a foodie scene of sorts. Indian restaurants (often called curry houses) can be very good in northern cities. Out in the countryside, pubs are your best bet for dining. Many serve excellent home-cooked food and locally reared meat (especially lamb) and vegetables. Roast beef dinners generally come with Yorkshire pudding, the tasty, puffy, oven-baked dish made from egg batter known as a popover in the United States. It's generally served with lots of gravy. Be sure to sample local cheeses, especially Wensleydale, which has a delicate flavor and honey aftertaste.
This celebrated Yorkshire tearoom began life in Harrogate in 1919, when a Swiss restaurateur brought his Alpine pastries and chocolates to England. The welcoming interior has changed little since it first opened, and the extensive array of teas not at all. In addition to omelets, quiches, sandwiches, and traditional cakes and pastries, the menu ranges from the Dales (sausages) to the Alps (rösti), and there are now gluten-free options. Betty's is famous for its traditional afternoon tea but there's an even more elaborate afternoon tea served in the Imperial Room, complete with a live pianist (reservations required, Friday through Monday only).
1 Parliament St., Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG1 2QU, England
Perfectly positioned at the bottom of the village, this friendly retreat dating back to 1828 looks out from atop a seawall to dramatic views of the North Sea (if you can get a coveted window table), with a warming open fire in winter and sunny terrace in summer. The reasonably priced menu leans towards well-prepared traditional pub grub, fresh fish and chips, and shellfish like Whitby scampi or crab and lemon salad. There are three B&B rooms upstairs.
The Dock, Robin Hood's Bay, North Yorkshire, YO22 4SJ, England
Located in a converted Victorian textile mill on the outskirts of town that now serves as a live-and-work complex for artists, this café and deli has been winning fans with all-day healthy breakfast dishes as well as freshly made sandwiches, soups, and heartier dishes like slow-roast pork belly with applesauce that use seasonal, locally sourced produce. When you've finished eating, check out the exhibitions in the complex's 3,500-square-foot art gallery. Buses 16 and 508 take you there from the center.
This shopping center takes six of the best food vans and pop-up restaurants from around the country and installs them alongside five permanent food vendors on its first floor under the name Trinity Kitchen. Vendors change every two months, and recent lineups have included Yoi Fried Chicken (a spicy Pan-Asian take on chicken bao), Dog Almighty (artisan and vegan hot dogs), and Yard Burger (selling Philly cheesesteaks, an exotic delicacy in these parts). There are also permanent ribs, gluten-free pho, Indian and Mexican food, and pizza vendors.
Claiming to date to 1715, this narrow, atmospheric bar in a quiet alley off bustling Briggate retains 19th- and 20th-century features, like beveled mirrors, copper-topped tables, art nouveau stained glass, and mosaic tiles. It serves superior pub food with an emphasis on the local and seasonal, like a spiced cauliflower steak in red pepper sauce or homemade beef in ale pie. Beers from local microbreweries are featured, and the prices are friendly.
