Menu limited no vegetables available to order. Loved the different breads and different butters. Steak very fatty :-( had to ask 3 times for water. Really want this restaurant to do well but think menu is too limited. Lovely building and courtyard with friendly staff.

I had the fish cakes, they were very nice, but 2 small fish cakes and a few salad leaf's seemed a bit skinny for a main course! Staff very friendly but service was quite slow considering it was fairly quiet.

Pre-theatre supper, but no problems. We were welcomed and looked after warmly, and the food was served prmptly but not rushed. There was an interesting selection of dishes for all courses, which made it difficult to choose. We all chose asparagus, but we're delighted with the surprise of the accompanying crispy duck eggs. The egg was very complementary with the asparagus and added substance. I thoroughly enjoyed my main course of baked aubergine and mushrooms, by my fellow diners were very impressed with the dramatic presentation if their vege burgers, which arrived as towering stack to the table. They spent the rest of the meal extolling the virtues of celeriac (which is not something you normally hear, even if it is one of THE most versatile vegetables). Lovely meal, but no room for dessert!

Overall we enjoyed our visit to Six Poor Folk. The welcome was friendly and our table was right where we wanted it. Food was good, although my Caesar Salad was not particularly enjoyable. The rest of our party all enjoyed their food though. We will go again.

Another great evening at Six Poor Folk in Knaresborough. The food was as ever fantastic freshly prepared local produce served in a relaxed friendly atmosphere. We loved the new additions to the menu and are looking forward to the live music this Friday evening from 8pm, Friday Night is Music Night is now a regular event.

The flatbread was a bit hard, maybe better to use pitta bread. Service not as good as other times we have been, but think that was due to the band outside. Good idea, but not if you want to have a quiet chat with friends.

Nice helpful staff. Food was very nice, well prepared and presented. Biggest downside was the menu was very limited and the fact that some of the items on the menu were not available even though the restaurant was very quiet didn't really help.

Fun night out, we popped in for dinner . The food was up to Six Poor Folk's usual high standard and then stayed to listen to the band The Birdman Rallies and 6PF's resident singer Sarah Boyle. Very talented and a great evening good food, good drink and great entertainment....what more could you ask for.

The food and service were exceptional. Our server couldn't have been more helpful and friendly, guiding us through the menu and explaining that the ingredients are locally sourced from award winning suppliers . And that the dishes were freshly prepared and when our food arrived we were not disappointed. It was a great experience and excellent value for money. Thankyou Six Poor Folk.

We went on a Saturday night and it was really busy, the staff did seem a little flustered. I was asked if having my burger medium was OK. I said 'Yes' if only it had been it was cooked with in an inch of it's life and was pretty tasteless. My wife's steak was better and she enjoyed it. The service was pretty poor.

We went along for an early doors drink and dinner last Friday night, had a nice bottle of Provence Rose, a pint of Roosters Yankee, a sharing fish platter and 2 mains for less than £60. Really tasty quality food and tremendous value. At last an alternative to Carriages

I have been to restaurant number of times and always had a good meal.Had a very poor experience on this occasion in respect of the main course - The Ploughmans. Issue was that a piece of cheese was presented that you wouldn't put in a mousetrap, and the bread was woeful. However on a positive note the service that we received was fantastic and every effort was made to rectify the issue- presented with an alternative cheese. The establishment also recognised the issues when we received the bill, without any prompting. The front of house staff were very professional and made this occasion an enjoyable experience. Don't be put of using this restaurant with my negative feedback l will go again and do hope this was a one off experience.
