Food and Drink in East Yorkshire
East Yorkshire is full of delicious temptation, evocative aromas, amazing local produce and endless ways to treat yourself and your family. Dive in and enjoy a holiday that tastes as good as it looks!
Family Favourites
There is something very special about the simple joy of eating award-winning fish and chips at the seaside as you sit together, looking out across a sunny harbour or rugged coastline. Or maybe you all have a sweet tooth and its’ the scent of sugary donuts or candy floss hanging in the air that entices you to indulge at one of our traders’ colourful stalls. Sticky fingers, and smiles on faces, are all part of the traditional holiday experience here.
A real taste of East Yorkshire
Our pubs, restaurants, delicatessens and cafes are bursting with local produce, carefully sourced ingredients and delicious seasonal flavours. From locally crafted beers and handmade chocolates to artisan breads and our own single malt whiskey, and from farmers to bakers through to luxury ice cream makers, East Yorkshire is an amazing place to visit and an even better place to taste.
Cosy corners and unique treats
Food isn’t just about the flavour. From clotted cream scones in a converted barn overlooking rolling hills, to a local real ale in the cosy corner of an historic pub with tales to tell, and from devouring freshly made pizzas at a family adventure centre to sipping spiced hot chocolate drinks as you listen to old records, there are many places here, where the experience matters as much as the taste.
Fine dining and inspired chefs
Whether it’s for a special occasion or just a decadent part of your trip, when you want a gourmet experience you’ll be spoilt for choice. You can take a table in a 19th Century stately home with meals as grand as the surroundings or perhaps you’d prefer to combine theatrics and food at a restaurant with a more modern twist, where you can watch highly trained chefs create your plate in the open kitchen. Combining a long country hike with a gourmet pub lunch or ending the day with a long luxurious dinner are just a few of the other options on the table.
From the land and the sea and from field to fork, great food is at the heart of our region. The combination of beautiful settings, friendly service, and wonderful local produce make this a delicious part of the world to visit. We hope you are hungry to find out more.
