This is a place with a menu, and good ones at that, for each and every occasion, set amidst the stunning scenery where the Yorkshire Dales shake off their smooth rounded shapes and become more verdant and covered with trees. Arncliffe Arms is now under a new management and offers sophisticated surroundings to match its own particular style.

The delicious smoked salmon parcels, prawns wrapped in smoked salmon in a Marie Rose sauce, makes the perfect starter, with options of moules marinee, mussels in shells with a cream and white wine sauce, or deep fried brie served with a cranberry coulis.

One of the specialities is their steak and ale pie with a puff pastry crust, and beef lasagne. Peppercorn pork, sliced pork medallions is served with a peppercorn sauce and a 16oz T-bone, fillet or rib-eye arrives with deep fried mushrooms, onion rings and grilled tomato. With the talents available in the kitchen it would come as no surprise to see a steadily increasing level of achievement that could become a hot spot for the foodies of Yorkshire.
