The Cleveland Tontine

The Cleveland Tontine is nothing less than a Yorkshire institution. The 19th century building was at one time a private residence but is best known as a hostelry. In the mid-70's, it became one of the leading restaurants in the country. Now recently refurbished, the Tontine is set to enjoy many more years as a unique destination for food lovers. Dine in the bright and airy conservatory or the atmospheric bistro with its stone fireplace and Grade 1 listed decorated ceiling and candle lit tables. The menu cleverly mixes the familiar with the fanciful so there's something to appeal to all tastes. Start with a classic moules marinieres or an inventive combination of Seared hand dived scallops and boudin blanc with leek and black truffle vinaigrette followed by grilled Dover sole or smoked fillet of pork with crispy belly and salted toffee apple.
