A much-loved pub offering “proper sandwiches” in Halifax has been named as one of the best places to visit for an affordable bite to eat when it comes to “one-course wonders.”
Shibden Mill Inn was featured in the ‘21 restaurants for an affordable bite’ list by The Good Food Guide.
The culinary experts said: “Choosing one course isn’t always for cost reasons: sometimes appetites are smaller, or you’re pushed for time, or you’re just in the mood for something simple.
“We’re all for pushing the boat out every so often and lingering over several courses, but eating out well doesn’t always have to be that way.
“Here are 21 restaurants where you’ll be welcomed just as warmly for a single plate of food as you would be going for the full experience.”
