31's Kids Menu
(served all day every day)
Nestled in the heart of York, the 31 Castlegate Restaurant offers a sophisticated dining experience that seamlessly blends classic British cuisine with contemporary flair. After a recent visit, I found the 31 Castlegate Restaurant Menu to be a masterclass in seasonal sourcing and elegant execution, making it a compelling choice for both locals and tourists exploring the historic city.
The menu showcases a refined selection of starters, mains, and desserts, thoughtfully curated to highlight the best of Yorkshire produce. A standout starter is the pigeon breast with black pudding, perfectly cooked and served over a bed of beetroot purée - earthy and rich, it sets the tone for a memorable meal. For mains, the braised beef cheek with horseradish mash and red wine jus was faultless in texture and depth of flavor, delivering hearty satisfaction without overwhelming the palate. Vegetarian guests will appreciate options like the wild mushroom risotto, which offers an umami-packed alternative that doesn’t feel like an afterthought.
Desserts at 31 Castlegate are equally indulgent. The dark chocolate torte with raspberry coulis balances sweetness with a sharp berry finish, while the Yorkshire rhubarb crumble pays homage to local ingredients in the most comforting way possible.
What sets this restaurant apart from competitors is its emphasis on fresh, locally sourced ingredients, presented with finesse in a historic Georgian building just steps away from Clifford’s Tower. The elegant yet cozy ambiance adds to the charm, making it ideal for romantic dinners or special occasions.
Service is attentive without being intrusive, and the wine list is carefully matched to the seasonal menu. Overall, the 31 Castlegate Restaurant Menu offers excellent value for the quality, and is a must-try for those seeking elevated British cuisine in York.
