Christmas at The Hermit

Real fires, real home cooked food and real hospitality.

Whether its for 2 people or 20 people,
you’ll be well looked after at The Hermit

This Christmas let George and his team take care of you at the iconic 300 year old Hermit pub.

Perched on the edge of Ilkley Moor, the cosy rooms of the Hermit are full of atmosphere and charm, the perfect venue for a festive celebration.

Our festive menu is completely à la carte this year. It will be available from November 24th and every day through to January 4th. On the big day itself we’ll be open 12-3 to welcome Christmas day walkers for a well deserved tipple.

Use our online booking system to secure your festive table.

This Christmas, our festive menu is à la carte, giving you and your guests the freedom to choose exactly the dishes you love.

For starters warm up with our homemade parsnip and chestnut soup, or enjoy festive favourites like our chicken liver & port pâté and smoked salmon & avocado terrine.

For the ultimate seasonal indulgence, we recommend our turkey ballotine, succulent turkey breast filled with sausage, sage & onion stuffing, served with cranberry sauce. Or treat yourself to our luxury fish pie, featuring salmon, haddock, and prawns in a creamy sauce, topped with golden cheesy mash.

Because our menu is à la carte, all your Hermit Pub Classics will also be available, including our burgers, hand-stretched pizzas, and, of course, our legendary homemade pies.

Make this Christmas truly special with a festive feast at The Hermit.
