The Black Bull Inn - Ryedale

Stayed for weekend break. Firstly communication is excellent. Arrived on the Friday night and despite there restaurant being in the last half an hour they squeezed us in for a meal which was lovely. The breakfasts were plenty full and high quality produce. The rooms are adjacent to the lovely pub and are spotless and large. All in all this is a lovely pub and hotel with lovely food and staff Definitely worth a minute

Omg don't no were to start me and husband were staying in the caravan park behind the blackbull it wasn't opened on the Mon Tues. Went in weds night beautiful and cosy inside with very pleasant and friendly staff we didn't make a booking but they fitted us in . We didn't no what to have as all the food they were bringing out looked delicious and all home made . We decided on the l9af tin yorkshire pudding and by eck it was massive there must have been a full cow in it with all the meat you get We couldn't finish it .was absolutely beautiful a guy on the sight told us to have the pork chops next time carnt wait to go again fantastic

Amazing food, with large serving sizes, and lovely friendly staff. They had a range of pub classics. The food was reasonably priced. Will be returning to the Black Bull.

So you think from the website the Black bull is quite classy this is far from the truth! This pub is an old fashioned village pub that has turned from pub bar to restaurant bit of pub. There is no glamour or glitz the matre de is an old chap in his coat and hawian shirt sat on a stool close to the entrance hardly the ritz! So this all sounds negative fear not cast aside your dicky bow and dinner jacket and get ready to be broken . The food shall we say comes in big portions but cooked fantastically well the pub is cosy with a warm fire and everyone is friendly and easy going. Maxie our waitress was really welcoming and fun with a huge smile she knew the tortue of a huge portion was on its way . I had there speciality Yorkshire pudding loaf and beef omg brilliant. Just so you understand this is huge the yorkshire pud is the size of a loaf of bread but amazing to eat . If in Pickering stop in but be warned go hungry 100% would go again.

Googled this dog friendly pub before we arrived as we were staying at High Oaks Grange. The food was 1st. Class as was the service so good we went back again. Staff went over the top to accommodate our usual requests.
