Breakfast: The Perfect Start to Your Easter Celebrations
Begin your Easter weekend on a high note with a sumptuous breakfast bite. Available Friday through Sunday from 9.30am-11am (last orders), our breakfast menu offers a tantalising selection of dishes guaranteed to wow your taste buds.
From classic favourites to innovative twists, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Indulge in our hearty ‘Full Yorkshire’ Breakfast, a quintessential English morning feast featuring award-winning sausage, smoked back bacon, our own spiced black pudding, and more. Not to overlook our vegetarian patrons, we also offer a veggie equivalent that comprises herb tomato and zingy beetroot black pudding.
For those seeking a lighter option, our Smashed Avocado on toasted sourdough with poached eggs is a refreshing choice, whilst our Almond & Vanilla Porridge topped with boozy prunes will leave you craving more.
But it’s not just the delectable food that makes our breakfast experience special. As you dine, soak in picturesque views of the tranquil River Ouse. Watch the boats drift by as you sip on rich CLO coffee or savour a brunch cocktail as you prepare for a day of Easter festivities.
A Sumptuous Easter Lunch or Dinner
Whether you’re joining us for a leisurely lunch or a special Easter dinner, The Star Inn The City promises an exceptional dining experience. Our A La Carte menu, available throughout the bank holiday weekend (after 4pm on Sunday), showcases the finest seasonal ingredients expertly crafted into exquisite dishes that will delight your palate.
Start your Easter feast by opting for one of our superb starters, each bursting with flavour. Savour our Pressed Spring Lamb Fritter, a delightful combination of tender lamb and garden mint ‘salsa verde’, or indulge in our Pan Roast King Scallops paired with house black pudding and forced Yorkshire rhubarb.
For mains, explore a diverse selection of dishes designed to satisfy every craving. Delight in our Chargrilled Pork Ribeye served with garden pea & mint raviolis, or opt for the Pan Fried North Sea Ling accompanied by brown butter potato ‘chip’ and wild garlic velouté. Vegetarian options are equally enticing, ensuring that every diner finds something to savour.
And no Easter feast would be complete without a sweet ending. Treat yourself to decadent desserts like the Blood Orange & Westcombe Ricotta ‘Cheesecake’ or indulge in our Tanariva 33% Milk Chocolate Custard with almond biscotti and boozy cherry compote.
Cocktails and Drinks: Raise a Glass to Easter
Just in time for Easter, we’ve launched our fab new cocktail menu, featuring a variety of creative concoctions that capture the spirit of the season.
For a refreshing sip, try our Clementine Collins, a delightful blend of Blood Orange Gin, Orange Liqueur, and Blood Orange Soda that creates a zesty burst of citrus flavours. If you’re in the mood for something luxurious, opt for the Lumière, a tantalising mixture of Gin, Passion Fruit, Lemon, Bitters, and Palmer Champagne.
Feeling peachy? Our Summer Peach Bellini is a must-try, made with Summer Peach Liqueur and Prosecco for a sparkling treat that embodies the essence of Easter.
For those seeking non-alcoholic options, our mocktails are equally enticing.
