White Swan - Ryedale

Service was lovely, food lacked taste. Soup was something of nothing and bland. Bread was gooey. Vegetables lacked flavour. Lamb and pork was tasty. It all looked great just lacked flavour. Our most expensive meal on our weeks break.

We’ve frequented the bar many times over the years , always found d it welcoming with the fire on and the locals ! Always clean and welcoming , ate lunch , limited choice but very nice hot food . Booked an evening meal , they had run out of fish so quickly made a decision on the lamb and the pork , not disappointed ! Will always pop in here while staying or passing through Pickering , wish it was my local !

We found this place last year by chance when the lady in the Black Swan up the road was quite rude and lucky she was. We returned last week for lunch and drinks, and just as before, the food is excellent, the service is fantastic and the venue is wonderful. Look forwrd to returning next year thankyou all at the White Swan

Stumbled upon the White Swan whilst looking for somewhere to eat in Pickering on a Sunday evening with free EV charging as an added bonus, between a decent sized car park is accessed via the archway . We arrived slightly before they started serving at 6:15pm and had a couple of drinks in the sat in the small bar area. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food service was efficient. The White Swan has accommodation as well providing food and some of the diners were obviously staying. We started with Wild Pigeon and pistachio terrine with chestnut bread, which was a great combination, we then had fish and chips with posh peas, that tasted much better than normal mushy peas and a massive pork chop with bubble and squeak with a mustard sauce. both mains were excellent, we finished with crème brulé and home made chocolate and cornflake flavour ice cream. Overall a slightly unusual menu but very enjoyable and well worth the £75 it cost us including drinks.

We booked this Hotel restaurant for one of our nights evening meals, opting to reserve a table as very busy and some locations not open some nights. The menu was comprehensive the food chosen was well cooked presented by a great team of staff who were attentive without being intrusive. The hotel sits in the Market Square and there is ample on street parking available but check any time restrictions. Overall, great restaurant, with good food selection, well cooked presented by a great team of staff.
