Willowgate Bistro in Ryedale

Superb food and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended

Absolutely amazing team, just made our day! We had a very stressful afternoon - and these guys completely shifted it over the course of a dinner with their smiles, banter and delicious food. Great menu, including an entire page with gluten free and vegetarian options. The seabass fillet was our winner, followed by the cheese platter for desserts. Thank you again!

Warm welcome, friendly, attentive staff. Food excellent. Would certainly recommend this place.

Delicious food, I can recommend the scallops and sea bass. Nice personal service from Gemma. Lovely surroundings and atmosphere. Really enjoyed the evening.

Visited based on online reviews, but they are a bit out dated so wanted to say that the food is still fantastic, the staff are friendly and the pricing is very reasonable. I enjoyed duck to start, followed by chicken supreme and finished with a perfect chocolate fondant (worth the extra wait). My husband had pork belly, steak and crème brulé. One of the best meals out we've had in years. The little touches (homemade fudge with the Irish coffee, homemade chocolates with the bill and fresh bread and tapenade to keep us going while our food was freshly prepared are what made it extra special. Honestly fantastic and highly recommended. Will definitely be back.

Visited here on Thursday evening . Restaurant is immaculately clean and the staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly.There is a wide and varied menu with an additional veggie and gluton free option if required .The meal was faultless in every aspect . Cheese soufflé was perfect thebfish corse was excellent and the sticky toffee pudding is highly recommended. This is why its no1 on trip advisor for places for the best places to eat in Pickering .

We had a wonderful time visiting Willowgate Bistro for my girlfriend’s birthday. We were slightly late arriving however after a quick telephone call the team were more than happy to accommodate us a little later than booked.I was delighted on arrival to see they’d purchased a lovely birthday balloon and positioned it next to our quiet table in the corner of the restaurant. What a nice touch!The food was fabulous - we had duck and steak followed by lemon cheesecake and chocolate tart, all cooked and presented beautifully. The wine and cocktails were superb and the staff couldn’t have done more for us.We had a fabulous meal at Willowgate Bistro and have already booked to return this weekend as the final meal of our holiday. Highly recommended, many thanks!

Fantastic food and lovely service. I'll definitely be returning for dinner again. 2 or 3 course set menu at £30 or £36.

Amazing local bistro! Went there on my first visit to Pickering and had a great experience. Recommend booking ahead, as it can get very busy in the evening and it’s very easy and quick to do so. They change the menu every few months and have a good variety to choose from. For mains we picked the steak with peppercorn sauce and the smoked haddock, which were both amazing. For starters we had the smoked duck and the king prawns and squid, both delicious. For dessert we shared the molten chocolate pudding that comes with vanilla ice cream and fruit. Red Wine was also good and staff were super nice and polite. Highly recommend going there for dinner. Price was fair. £31 for three courses (£5 extra if you choose the steak).

Fantastic service from all the staff and the food was amazing. The 3 course meal price is fantastic too. Amazing food and amzing price! A*******
