Best Brunch Restaurants in Helmsley

Lovely setting, the building is amazing, ambience just right. Quality food as expected, beef carpaccio starter was lush, the wife had king prawns which were equally as good. Medium rare tomahawk, garlic Parmesan fries, mac and cheese, and panko onion rings starters, blue cheese sauce and the bone marrow gravy for some dippage! Everything was perfect, even a little card and a frozen sorbet for my wife as it was her birthday. Would definitely recommend

Brilliant meal, for a joint 40th celebration. Staff so welcoming, food UNBELIEVABLE. I had a ribeye (outstanding) and my wife had the piri piri chicken which was probably the most tasty and perfectly chargrilled chicken that has ever existed. Creamed spinach and fries both delicious. Brought us a surprise birthday cocktail each at the end too. Thank you so much to everyone at the Hawksmoor for a fantastic treat.

Our first visit here and could not fault the experience. My flat iron steak with side orders was perfect. Not a crumb left. Hubby’s pork cheek very tender and the beef burger did not disappoint. I finished old school with Baked Alaska the perfect end to our meal. Ronnie was our main waiter but all staff looked after us really well. Great ambience and looking forward to returning.

Arrived an hour before our lunch booking and were seated with no problem. Ordered from the market menu, 3 delicious courses with a glass of fizz. Super efficient and polite staff, great ambiance. My 2nd visit, won’t be the last. Definitely a ‘go to’ destination in York for lunch or dinner

This was our first visit, we went with some friends and had brunch and we weren't disappointed; the staff were brilliant, the food was cooked fresh, well presented and was very tasty. We have been telling friends about this great cafe and will defiantly go back, possibly next time for coffee and cake and again to try an evening meal.
