Spencers And Grill - Ryedale

This was our first time at this restaurant and it was very busy. We asked if they had a table for two, not expecting one since the staff seemed overwhelmed, but they managed to accommodate us. The food was fantastic; my husband ordered a burger with chilli sauce, but they forgot the chilli. He politely informed a staff member, who quickly rectified the mistake and apologized. He really enjoyed his meal and said it was one of the best burgers he's had. I had the mixed grill, which was huge and I couldn't finish it all. The atmosphere was lively, the staff were lovely, and the restaurant was very welcoming. We will definitely be returning in two weeks when we are back in Pickering.

If you find yourself in the area, you absolutely have to dine at Spencers. The portion sizes are unbelievably large - we made the mistake of ordering sides with our tray dinners (plates could never contain it all) and ended up not being able to finish them. We were so impressed by the sizes that we didn't even think to take photos, we just dug in knowing it would be a long meal. We ordered the salt and pepper tray, the American combo, ribs from the grill section, garlic mushrooms in a creamy garlic sauce with bread rolls and salad, garlic bread, and onion rings. They have a wide selection of drinks available and were even kind enough to let my friend taste a cider before she ordered it, as she was unsure if she would like it. The only downside was finding out they were closed on Mondays (and Tuesdays) after walking over from our holiday rental. If I ever come back to the area, I would definitely make a point to visit again.

The food was excellent and reasonably priced, the service was friendly. Perfect for families, with a fantastic play area in the back.
