18. Judges Country House, Yarm
Michelin say: "A formal two-roomed restaurant in a traditional country house hotel; the conservatory extension has a lovely outlook over the lawns. Modern, well-prepared dishes are straightforward yet full of flavour. Choose from classics, a strong vegetarian selection and some more refined, imaginative dishes."

19. Chadwicks Inn, Maltby
Michelin say: "Well-prepared dishes, a wide-ranging wine list and smartly attired staff add a touch of formality to this village pub; although you can still come just for a drink in the bar. Pub classics sit alongside more modern creations; all are colourful and eye-catching and show a clear understanding of flavours." Photo: Google Photo: Google
