Best Lunch Restaurants in Barkston Ash

"Hummus fans can now rejoice with the opening of the new branch of the Humpit in Leeds University Union this September. Previously a little-known secret tucked away in the Corn Exchange, you now have access to hummus bowls, soft, pillowy pitta breads and crispy, spicy falafel right on your doorstep. Although it’s little too pricey to reasonably go here for lunch every day, it’s not too bad for the occasional treat."

"This humble food stall amid the grandeur of the old Corn Exchange serves hummus with pitta bread (hence the name, hum-pit), plus falafel, all freshly made every day...."

"Fettle is a slice of Scandinavian serenity in the heart of the city and it’s the perfect place to while away the hours with a coffee. They serve Limini coffee from Cleckheaton, and each cup, whether you go for an espresso, cappuccino or latte, is made with a double shot for a deeper, darker flavour. They also serve Sandows’ renowned cold brew coffee for something different, and you can tuck into a range of tasty Scandi-inspired morsels."

"What:Fettle may be best known for its great value set menus in the evening (two courses for £25), but you can also pop by here for breakfast. Tuck into the likes of mushrooms on pumpernickel rye toast or a slow-smoked pork belly Benedict. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of early starts either, as Fettle’s breakfast menu is served daily until 4pm."

"Once a cafe, now a fine dining destination, Fettle is a must-try if you like good food. Their cosy restaurant serves up a menu of intriguing dishes from morning until night. In the evening, you can share small plates – try the pork belly with rosemary fudge and rind popcorn or smoked akee with kimchi and cauliflower."

"Situated in Micklegate, York, Partisan is a family-run restaurant. This eatery creates a special menu every week to cater to vegan and vegetarian visitors and locals in town. The remarkable thing about Partisan is that it runs an arable farm on the city’s outskirts, where staff grows the herbs and vegetables used in making the restaurant’s tasty dishes."

"Partisan is a vibrant, independent coffee shop located on Micklegate in York and the cafe has been a long term dream for owner, Florencia. They serve a modern menu for breakfast, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea every day of the week. And they also open on evenings later in the week for casual dining."

"Again, this one involves eggs, especially on the daytime menu. But if that’s not a problem for you, then you will love this quirky spot. If you don’t eat eggs then you still have options and some very tasty ones too."

"Le Chalet serve their pancakes all day long, so whether you’re in for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you can always treat yourself. Keep it traditional with lemon & sugar or get creative with caramel, Nutella and white chocolate. If you don’t have a sweet tooth, their galettes come stuffed with fillings like chicken and smoked salmon."

"Picnics are officially ON and, after the year we’ve all had, you’d be justified in splashing out on some delicious provisions made by somebody else. Now we’ve nothing against a homemade cheese and pickle or peanut butter and jam (our kids’ sandwich option of choice), but there are plenty of places in York that will do the hard work for you, whether you’d like a complete, fit-for-royalty picnic selection or just a mouthwatering sandwich, scone, snack or meal to take away and eat in the nearest green space (take a look at our best places for a picnic in and around York here). York’s food businesses have all had a difficult year, so we’d always recommend that you shop local and independent if you can."

"Stonegate Yard is a place that I’ve been eating at ever since I was a young teenager and went out for meals with my friends. It has such a cosy and homey vibe to it and I’ve eaten there many times, both inside and in the heated outdoor patio area. I’d recommend: nachos, gammon and eggs, fish and chips or the steak flatbread."

"A bright and stylish restaurant featuring a stunning waterside balcony, Brasserie Forty 4 is generally regarded as one of Leeds’ most original contemporary dining establishments. It showcases the finest food in British and Mediterranean cooking and updates its menu every two months, thereby keeping it fresh and exciting. Some of their signature delicacies include Portobello mushrooms served with goat’s cheese, spinach, pine nuts and tomato sauce, or the tender halibut with asparagus and truffle butter."

Dishes include haunch of venison with black pudding, Savoy cabbage and red wine sauce, or a 16oz Yorkshire chateaubriand for two."

"Flying Pizza was a very popular fixture on the Leeds dining scene for many years, the restaurant became part of the San Carlo family in 2010. Offering interior views of the kitchen with a stunning dining terrace with a fully retractable roof, this restaurant has to be one of the most elegant in Leeds. The terrace is open all year round and surrounded with beautifully lit olive trees so you can enjoy your meal in a serene atmosphere."

"I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a tumultuous year and if we could just spare a couple of hours to learn about stories of peace and social reform, we would emerge from this experience with more empathy. This museum is, literally speaking, a hidden attraction in town. It took me a few looks at maps and road signs to find it because of how small it is."
