Eating out in North Yorkshire: Award-winning restaurant and hotel adds some festive magic

The Crab Manor Hotel and the Two AA Rosette Crab & Lobster Restaurant has been adding some festive magic to its offerings and wants to help people create some special memories.

The restaurant has been serving up gourmet seafood alongside classic English dishes, since 1991 – all crafted with a generous touch that reflects the best of Yorkshire. From intimate dinners to gatherings, the 'Crab' sets the perfect scene, whether in the cosy main restaurant, sunlit terrace, or private dog-friendly dining pods.

With Christmas around the corner, the restaurant’s private dining pods transform into enchanting ‘Christmas baubles’, adding a touch of festive sparkle to your dining experience.

A stay at Crab Manor Hotel is just as remarkable as the dining experience. Each of the 20 rooms is uniquely designed. Whether you choose a tranquil thatched lodge, a Scandinavian log cabin, a luxurious suite, or one of the beautifully located garden rooms, you’ll enjoy a range of unique features – from private hot tubs and saunas to secret beer taps.

Wreath-making and tribute nights

Throughout December, the hotel is hosting its "12 Days of Christmas" events, with everything from wreath-making workshops to cheese and wine evenings, and even tribute nights with the likes of Michael Bublé and Frank Sinatra.

And if you’re looking for the perfect gift, why not treat someone special to a luxury gift voucher.

Come and discover why Crab & Lobster is a hidden gem of the North. From our award-winning cuisine to the charming atmosphere and festive cheer, we’re here to make your visit truly special.
