Best kept secret in the area. This 16th century pub/restaurant is run by a lovely couple (Dave and…read moreJackie) who make you feel welcome every visit. My wife and I have been coming here for nearly three years now and the food is still the best around. Sometimes you may have to wait due to everything being cooked fresh to order but it is well worth the wait. Look out for the specials board which has some of the unusual dishes not normally seen in other restaurants.

The Windmill Inn sits on the A1079 a few miles outside the city of York. There is a nice pub that…read morehas a full bar and a restaurant that serves fabulous food. Behind it, well off the road is a 2 story block of about 10 rooms. Ample parking. My wife and I stayed at the Inn and had dinner. The room was large, with a nice bathroom. There was a TV and tea pot. The bed was firm but comfortable. The room looks out onto a large lawn behind the pub. £95 for our double room. The food we had at the restaurant was exceptional. We started with the prawns with a sweet chili sauce. The prawns were tempura style, crisp, light batter over tender, moist prawns. The sauce was excellent. I had the fried duck breast over noodles with hoyson sauce. Perfect! The haddock and chips my wife had was superb as well! The fish was a huge fillet, moist and firm with a light, crisp shell. The chips were great, but the fresh mushy peas were even better. We washed it down with a wonderful bottle of Chilean Syrah. The staff were friendly and helpfull. The atmosphere comfortable.

Really nice pub. We were visiting York for the weekend and staying just up the road from this pub…read more There are a couple of pubs on this road and we chose this one. We are glad we did. Three things stood out. 1 great service 2 great food 3 lovely relaxing atmosphere. Although the car park is quite small this should not put you off. There is a small seating area out in the front. Inside the decor is very nice, with an open fire place which is used in winter. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I recommend this pub to all wanting a quiet drink, although there is a not a wide choice of beers on offer, that shouldn't matter. Highly recommended.

We weee told it could be 30 to 45 minutes before a table would be ready for our group of 4. 10 minutes later they had a table for us. The menu is pretty big and a specials board that adds more choices. We ordered to items from the specials board, the chicken had good flavor but it seemed like it had been cooked and sat for a while. Some parts were a little dried out. The other dish was a pasta dish that could of used a little more flavor. It was later in the evening when we arrived so the kitchen was most likely winding down when ordered. The food was still good and I would go back again, no problem, I would try something off the menu next time. We enjoyed the evening i

The village of Haxby is not exactly the beaten path but this pub has lots of local flavour and most of the folks in there were locals. If you get your meal before 645pm there are early bird specials and we took advantage of that both of us having the steak and ale pie which was really excellent served with chips and a fresh green salad. Lots of selection on the menu and a good dessert menu as well. It's a free house so there was a good selection of beers and ales and a really great selection of gin (gin corner) behind the bar. The waitresses were attentive and friendly and we had beer and food in no time at all. Highly recommend.
