Willowgate Bistro - Ryedale

Excellent friendly and welcoming service. Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Very well looked after by all of the staff. A very nice touch was the door being opened for us when we left.

Great food . Went above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

Visited for Friday night dinner. Good mix o meat fish and vegetarian starters and mains. I had the soufflé it was perfect! J had the salmon and cod croquette lovely. Mains I had the venison wellington loin still just pink at the centre, ate perfectly, J had the herb crusted cod with a delicious butternut squash purée ,both with nice veg accompaniment. Sweets both delicious. Good wine choices by glass or bottle. Service excellent throughout . Unfortunately, didn’t take pictures.

Booked this with friends on a Saturday night as part of on long weekend away. Delighted we found it as this is a gorgeous little bistro with fabulous service and amazing food all in a very relaxed atmosphere. High quality ingredients beautifully cooked. Wish this was closer so I could visit again.

The starters were exceptional, however the partridge was very tough and over cooked....it should have been perfect based on it being one of their handful of main courses.
