Melton's Restaurant

Inspector comments

"Top-notch cooking in locals’ favourite."

Overview

For the best part of four decades, Melton’s Restaurant has remained one of York’s notable restaurants. Opened by chef Michael Hjort and wife Lucy in 1990, this welcoming bistro-style venue is close to a local shopping area on the outskirts of the cathedral city. The hand-painted wall friezes, depicting local landmarks, contrast beautifully with the lilac and rich purple decor of this intimate, eight-table restaurant. Friendly and informal staff have a low-key style, but they are knowledgeable and passionate about the dishes. Show more

About the Area

North Yorkshire, with its two National Parks and two designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is England’s largest county and one of the most rural. This is prime walking country, from the heather-clad heights of the North York Moors to the limestone country that is so typical of the Yorkshire Dales – a place of contrasts and discoveries, of history and legend.
