Dine

Freshly prepared seasonal menus that use the very best Yorkshire produce 

At the Blue Lion we create exceptional dishes using ingredients from the surrounding Yorkshire landscape.

Whether it’s lunch, dinner or Sunday lunch, our menus reflect the extraordinary landscapes that surround us. Our ingredients are farmed, fished and grown as locally as possible – and we work with a variety of excellent producers, including wild game suppliers. 

The ever-changing seasons help shape our menus and our team of top-class chefs create a dining experience you can savour. Relax in our real ale bar with a roaring log fire and cosy atmosphere. In here, large sweeping settles and sturdy oak tables provide an English pub setting for you to sit back and unwind. Our main restaurant provides a more formal setting and we also have the snug and other rooms which can be used for private hire and shoot parties. 

We’ve been lucky enough to win the Dining Pub of the Year Award three times. The Blue Lion is renowned for its extensive wine list, as well as real ales from the local Black Sheep Brewery in nearby Masham and Theakston Brewery, also in Masham.

*We can cater for Gluten Free requirements and Vegan dishes can also be found on our menus. 

A La Carte

Our seasonal A La Carte menu has been carefully crafted by our head chef using the very best Yorkshire ingredients.
