A thatched fourteenth-century pub in a tiny North Yorkshire village, the Star Inn holds a Michelin star and sits at number five on the Top 50 Gastropubs list, which tells you this is not your average moorland local. Fish comes from Whitby, game from the moors, and vegetables from the kitchen garden, all finding their way into cooking that is classical underneath and quietly inventive on top. The charred beams from a 2021 fire were left exactly where they fell.
