Bosun’s Restaurant food reflects our vision of fine dining in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Proudly awarded 2 AA Rosettes, Bosun’s is committed to delivering high-quality, flavourful dishes with generous portions and beautifully balanced presentation.
Our menus offer a variety of delicious options throughout the week. We take pride in our seasonally changing à la carte menu, as well as our popular Sunday Lunch. Join us on Thursday evenings for Grill Night, featuring two steaks and a complimentary bottle of wine. Steaks change weekly and can be upgraded to be carved at the table, served with two portions of triple-cooked chips, a selection of add-on sides, seasonal vegetables, onion rings, and your choice of included sauce.
We’re also proud to offer vegan and vegetarian options as part of our Thursday special menu, ensuring everyone can enjoy the Bosun’s experience.
At Bosun's Restaurant, our bar is a focal point, designed to offer an extensive and curated selection of drinks that cater to a wide range of tastes. We pride ourselves on providing a diverse wine list, featuring both local and international varieties, carefully chosen to complement our menu. Our commitment to quality is reflected in our partnerships with renowned suppliers. For instance, we feature York Gin and Pink House Gin, the latter crafted locally in Bishopthorpe, adding a unique, local flavour to our offerings.
We have recently added a range of zero-alcohol wines, beers and cider to our bar.
We serve locally roasted coffee from Dancing Goat, ensuring a rich, delicious brew with every cup. We also have a choice of milk available including various plant-based versions and a selection of delicious flavoured syrups.
Our commitment to inclusivity extends to our menu, where we strive to make much of our offering gluten-free. This includes gluten-free bread, batters, coatings, and desserts, minimising cross-contamination and ensuring a safe and straightforward dining experience for all guests.
Yorkshire food and drink is at the heart of Bosun’s. Our culinary philosophy revolves around celebrating the region’s rich gastronomic heritage. Wherever possible, we source the freshest ingredients from local farms, dairies, and breweries, ensuring that every dish reflects an essence of Yorkshire. We place great importance on building relationships with local suppliers, showcasing the quality of what is available nearby. We proudly feature these suppliers across our social media posts, highlighting our commitment to supporting the local community. By championing Yorkshire’s food and drink, we offer an authentic dining experience that is deeply rooted in the local culture and traditions.
Our goal is to eventually grow many of our ingredients, further enhancing our farm-to-table approach.
