The latest edition of the prestigious MICHELIN Guide for Great Britain and Ireland has just been released and we’re delighted to reveal that The Star Inn The City has once again been featured as a recommended restaurant in the 2023 edition.
First launched over 120 years ago, the MICHELIN Guide is the world’s leading foodie travel publication, acting as a reference point for discerning travellers seeking high quality and memorable dining experiences.
Each year, the MICHELIN Guide’s dedicated team of independent inspectors travel the globe in search of top-quality restaurants that represent the local area and bring travel destinations to life, with only the most exceptional eateries making it into the guide.
Restaurants are featured in the revered publication based on their ability to satisfy strict criteria and standards; listed food establishments must demonstrate mastery of flavour and outstanding cooking techniques, whilst the quality of produce used is also assessed. The skill and personality of the chef, and how that manifests in his or her cuisine, is also considered.
Recognising The Hard Work Of Our Team
The Star Inn The City’s listing in the 2023 MICHELIN Guide is testament to the skill, passion and hard work demonstrated by each and every member of our team.
Over the last 12 months we have remained steadfast in our commitment to bringing patrons a little taste of the countryside in the city and we proudly serve mouth-watering seasonal dishes that utilise the finest, locally sourced produce and ingredients.
Our offering includes Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Sunday Lunch, with all our menus reflecting the vision of MICHELIN-starred Chef Patron Andrew Pern. To complement our standard menu offerings, over the last year we’ve even hosted several extremely popular Supper Clubs. These well-received events have given our talented kitchen team a platform to showcase their unique culinary skills whilst experimenting with exciting and unique flavour combinations.
Our Other Awards & Accolades
In addition to this latest accolade, The Star Inn The City has also scooped several more recent awards, underscoring our reputation as one of the best restaurants in York.
Earlier this year our riverside brasserie was shortlisted for a prestigious EatGame award in recognition of our work utilising and championing British Game meat.
In February, our restaurant also received the honour of being included in a list of the UK’s Top 100 Romantic Restaurants, as voted for by diners at OpenTable.
The Star Inn The City also proudly retains an AA rosette for culinary excellence, whilst we also boast a Experts’ Choice Award in light of our restaurant ranking as one of the best visitor attractions in York, according to TripExpert.
