The Old Deanery restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.5
Used to be great. Now it's pretentious and for overly ambitious but unimaginative guests. Plenty of A* breakfast places 2 mins walk into Ripon. Who wants deconstructed breakfast?- there's a reason no one else does this and a reason they warn you about it the night before. Great for a quiet night sleep but not much else. Won't be back until after the food experiment is finished.
