As is the Banks way, the cooking champions the best Yorkshire produce and day-boat fish, across a mixture of pub classics and slightly more original dishes, like barbecued monkfish with a lemon verbena curry sauce. The bright, engaging service team add just the kind of warmth you hope for in a pub like this.
