Middleton Tyas is an old Copper mining village and looking closely there are still a few reminders of its past, we have some beautiful walks that take in the fine country side that surround us and is on the doorstep of Richmond, the first of all Richmond’s of the world, the Yorkshire Dales market town, with Norman castle, Georgian architecture, large cobbled market place, monuments and abbeys, the fast flowing river Swale, and breathtaking scenery. Situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Richmond is a town that inspires painters and poets, past and present….

Fantastic food, lovely staff, very friendly atmosphere. Food was outstanding, we ate there the first night of our trip and booked straight away for the second. Don't pass this by, if you're looking for somewhere to eat in this area you have found it. Stop looking 😀
Booked for Sunday dinner, absolutely perfect atmosphere, as well as the most lovely staff and well... the food - delicious.. we had the Sunday roasts and beautiful fresh veg - 10 out of ten for flavour and quality. We will all be back xx
The food was amazing. We had 3 courses and they were all excellent. Presented really well and decent amount! The service was also excellent by all members of staff Only note - I asked for a small wine at the end and was served 175ml!
Went for dinner at about 7pm on a Wednesday. We managed to get a table without booking. We ordered Salmon - with veg Burger - with chips Child's fish fingers, chips and peas. The Salmon was very tasty & the accompanying veggies were perfectly cooked. The burger was pretty average however the chips were superb. Child's plate was a very generous portion of fish goujons, chips and peas, enough to feed a starving child or a hungry adult. Deserts Banofee mess - delicious! Marmalade cheese cake - superb! The service was friendly & attentive and the food is reasonably priced
A lot of years since our last visit. But still a wonderful quaint unspoilt British pub. Food excellent quality and very well prepared and presented. Reasonable prices across the board. Booking is essential as all tables in the area we were in had reserved markers on them
