Diners’ Choice Award lists celebrate the best restaurants in the country and many of the highest rated restaurants are located here in Yorkshire.

Many of the best restaurants are situated in tourism hotspots such as the Yorkshire coast, Harrogate, York and the Yorkshire Dales.

OpenTable compiles more than 40,000 new diner reviews every month to find the most popular restaurants and results are organised by category to help you find your new favourite places to eat, each based solely on the reviews of the public who visit these restaurants.
