Top Best Seafood Restaurants in River Derwent

"Loch Fyne was “brought to life by two oyster enthusiasts, Johnny and Andy, who started selling their oysters from a small shack on the west coast of Scotland. We now have 22 Restaurants up and down the country, providing fresh, sustainably sourced seafood dishes; much of which is delivered fresh from the loch itself.”  Loch Fyne have a good brunch menu including Baked eggs, Loch Fyne Kippers, Avocado, pink grapefruit and chilli and the Loch Fyne Breakfast (grilled sausage, back bacon, black pudding, haggis, mushroom, baked beans, tomato, egg how you like it and toasted sourdough)."

"Although Loch Fyne is part of a chain, it still provides a personal experience to your dining. Starting out in the 1970s on the west coast of Scotland, Loch Fyne has spread all the way down to the south of England. Its wonderful location in York has it sitting on the gorgeous River Foss (Loch Fyne is on the right in the photo), in a beautiful old building that has retained much of its original fixtures that provide a unique experience for its costumers!"

"The Golden Grid is a sit-down fish restaurant that has been serving the best cod in Scarborough since 1883. Its starched white tablecloths and starched white aprons are staunchly traditional, as is the menu: as..."

"This old-school seafood restaurant champions local catch such as Scarborough lobster, crab and turbot. Service is a little over the top and the background music is oh-so-cheesy, but nevertheless it does a good..."

"This guildhall in the city of York was one of the most important buildings in the medieval city. The majority of the Hall was built in 1357 by a group of influential men and women who came together to form a religious fraternity called the Guild of Our Lord Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. The main part of the building consists of the Great Hall, the Undercroft and the Chapel."

"Just a short drive from the city center you can find the York Cold War Bunker which is unlike any of the other historic attractions in the area. Wonderfully well-preserved, it dates to 1961 and is the only Royal Observer Corps bunker of its kind that you can take tours around. Once one of around thirty such sites in the UK, it was in this semi-subterranean two-storey bunker that members of the Corps and a scientific warning team would have sheltered in the event of a nuclear war."

"Like a moment frozen in time, York’s Cold War bunker takes visitors back to an era where the threat of nuclear explosions prompted the construction of this space. The partially-underground bunker is a glimpse into the recent history of the British Cold War, built in 1961 to monitor fallout. It was decommissioned in the 1990s, but remains a reminder of what it is like to live under the threat of nuclear war."

"Small but perfectly formed, Clifford’s Tower offers, among other things, splendid views across the city and York Minster from its circular platform up high. It also tells an interesting tale, often referred to as York Castle, the site dates back to 1068 when William the Conqueror was busy trying to rid the north of Vikings and built a number of castles on his way. While many battles raged over the centuries (the murky Jewish massacre of 1190 cast a long shadow), York Castle’s role evolved, including stints as a prison and a royal mint."

"Clifford’s Tower is another one of the cities most famous attractions. Whilst taking photos from outside of the tower is completely free of charge, ticket fees do apply if you wish to go inside. Once inside, you can check out some great views of York from the top."

"With breathtaking views of York, Clifford’s tower is an important stop off for anyone new to the city. Originally part of York Castle, the tower was built by William the Conqueror and has been used as both a prison and a royal mint."

"If you have a large appetite, then a great takeaway option is The Golden Horse, as customers say that the portions are large enough for two or three people to share. This takeaway is also praised for the quality of its food and for the friendly customer service. Closed on Mondays, open from 5.30 pm to 11.30 pm from Tuesday to Thursday, and open from 5.30 pm to midnight on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays"

"An authentic Cantonese restaurant in town, The Mulan exudes an aura that is modern and sophisticated through its design and interiors. This restaurant provides a fine-dining experience in a relaxed and comfortable environment, and also a quick takeaway for people who are always on-the-move yet want to eat healthy and delicious. You can try crowd favorites including honey garlic wings, sweet & sour chicken, Cantonese seafood chow mein, or you could pick any you would like from the restaurant menu."

"Monday-Saturday, a two course lunch will set you back just £7.20 while a three course Sunday lunch £9.90 per head. The Mulan Chinese Restaurant is not in the city centre – in fact it’s on more of an industrial estate. This does mean very easy parking and a good sized premises,  It’s very near the Vue Cinema and Ten Pin Bowling."

"Three Best Rated ranks The Mulan Chinese Restaurant as the best Chinese takeaway in York. It is one of the most established Chinese restaurants, as it has been open since 1989. This restaurant is also one of the most popular with locals and visitors to the city alike."
