The Denison Arms

It makes a change to find a place that is serving traditional pub grub that is home made, well this is one the Denison Arms is located in the village of East Ayton near Scarborough.


This place was recommended to us by the guy who ran the caravan site we where staying at nearby, he did warn us not to have a starter though as he said we wouldn't eat the main course, and how right he was.


I opted for the 32oz steak and yes it did beat me, the chips (which I don't normally have) where home made as where the onion rings.


My partner's steak and ale pie was also excellent and I couldn't complain about value for money. we enjoyed it that much we returned on the Sunday before heading home again.


The Beef salad my Partner had was excellent not just a slice of beef and cloth lettuce, but a few good thick tender slices of beef with a salad complimented with allsorts including melon and all the trimmings as was the duck I had.


We will look forward to visiting here again.

I came here about six years ago and was put off by what I considered to be "Death by veg." However friends and family were raving about it again so I went on a Sunday afternoon. They serve John Smiths and Tetley bitters on cask which they keep quite well. For my lunch I had the mixed meat Sunday dinner. The portions were huge but yet again it was three quarters veg. The beef was not in slices but rather in bits like I had the scrapings off the bottom of the tin. The chicken and pork were also very dry as if they had been kept hot for a long time. I was very surprised to find battered asparagus and battered parsnip on my plate and quite frankly never want to see them again. My friends had Gammon, Steak and Ale pie and Chilli. I envied their choices as they looked much fresher and vibrant then mine. I feel that the quality of my food suffered as I had ordered something of which they would have prepared lots of portions of whereas my friends were cooked as they ordered. Next time I go I am going to try their 32oz steak which they knock out for just under £20. However I definitely would not eat Sunday Roast here again and would not recommend it to anyone. At £31 for four meals I found it reasonable.

Been many times love this pub love the food, food so good havent tried pudding yet always too full after main course :)
