Orca Local Skipton Top 5 Restaurants
I have lived in Skipton for 31 years so far with a rather healthy appetite, so without further ado, here are my recommendations for where to dine in Skipton! Sam Houston’s, Water Street, Skipton Sam’s back was the message earlier this year and yes he’s back with a bang! Sam Houston’s originally opened its doors over 20 years ago bringing Tex Mex to the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales. After temporarily closing earlier this year, Sam’s re-opened under new management who pride themselves on serving fresh, affordable Mexican food in traditional surroundings. 20 years on it’s fiesta time again in Sunny Skipton! Emporio Italia, Mill Bridge, Skipton Emporio Italia is a great place to go for evening meals as well as a tasty lunch in Skipton. It aims to build on the solid reputation already established by their sister restaurant in nearby town Ilkley. The place is authentic Italian throughout, from the background music to the red neckerchiefs worn by the chefs and the dried provisions for sale on shelves. The food is delicious, but the staff's abundant enthusiasm makes it taste even better! Lunch of Pizza or Pasta is around £6. Dinner offers early bird menu, Pizza / Pasta or more individual options from £7 upwards. At Emporio Italia you might end up thinking you are on a gondola in Venice! Nosh, Newmarket Street, Skipton Following the move from Devonshire Place to its current location within the Boutique 25 restaurant, a former dentists, Nosh initially brought back some unhappy memories of my childhood! One glimpse of the stylish décor, though, combined with a couple of pre-meal cocktails in 25 below soon made me forget about my bad experiences! Serving excellent, well presented fresh food and deliciously delectable desserts (not sure my dentist would approve) it comes highly recommended, both for couples and groups starting a night out. Aeolos, Cavendish Street, Skipton I recently dined at Aeolos for the first time several weeks ago. It is situated away from the High Street, and as a result it is sometimes overlooked by hungry diners, like myself, who want a quick meal with their partner. That said, now I have visited it is certainly a place I wouldn’t forget in a hurry and I would definitely make the effort to go back! The old Victorian building has been decorated sympathetically with pergolas, vines and grapes but still keeps all its beautiful grand house features. As Skipton’s only Greek restaurant, complete with dancing and traditional plate smashing, this place really comes alive. The Meze is certainly not for the faint hearted but highly recommended! Canalside, Coach Street, Skipton Formally the Waterfront Nightclub and previously “The Barge” (before my time!) the Canalside is set in one of Skipton’s landmark buildings on the bank of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal. It offers an excellent Sunday lunch for friends and couyples with great value ‘early bids’ deals through the week. For reasonably priced dining it doesn’t come much better than this! For this reason the Canalside is my number one choice when I am dining out in Skipton!
