Restaurant EightyEight

Restaurant EightyEight at Grantley Hall, Ripon, presents a modern Pan-Asian dining experience shaped by Yorkshire ingredients and Far Eastern flavours. The restaurant combines regional produce with Asian-inspired cooking, creating a menu that focuses on a meeting of cultures rather than a single traditional cuisine. It suits diners looking for a contemporary setting and a menu with a clear sense of place.

Set on the upper level of the restaurant, the dining area looks across the ornamental Grade II listed Japanese Garden. Design-led décor and the garden outlook give EightyEight a calm, considered character, while the food provides a more energetic contrast through bold Asian flavours. For diners travelling from York, the restaurant offers a destination dining option within the wider Grantley Hall estate.

Menu formats include an à la carte selection and an eight-course tasting menu, allowing different approaches to the meal. A Dine & Unwind experience is also available, combining dinner and a drink with time in the Three Graces Spa. The tasting menu has a later final order than the regular dinner service, so diners considering that option should check the current arrangements when booking.

Drinks are part of the experience, with cocktails prepared by the venue’s mixologists to accompany the Asian-inspired food. The combination of crafted drinks, a garden-facing setting and a multi-course menu gives the restaurant a suitable setting for an unhurried evening meal, while the à la carte format provides a more flexible alternative.

Restaurant EightyEight welcomes children aged 12 and over when dining with parents, making it suitable for older family groups as well as couples and adult parties. The restaurant is fully accessible for guests with mobility issues. Smart/casual dress is appropriate. Grantley Hall does not permit dogs in the hotel or grounds, apart from guide dogs and recognised support or assistance dogs meeting the venue’s stated requirements.

Located at Grantley Hall, Ripon HG4 3ET, Restaurant EightyEight forms part of the estate’s wider collection of dining and hospitality spaces. Table reservations are available through Grantley Hall, with dietary requirements to be shared at the time of booking.
