I recently spent a rare evening away from home with my partner. We stayed at the beautiful Marmadukes Town House Hotel in York, which is one of the best hotels in York. Although this is a food website, I must begin by saying that the room was a delight, with antique furniture and a free-standing bathtub. Also, the reception staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. (Note: This hotel is now called Clementine’s Town House Hotel).
However, as this is a food website, I should move on to the breakfast we enjoyed during our stay.
Review of Breakfast at Marmadukes Town House Hotel, York
The dining room was light and airy, which made eating there a relaxed and pleasant experience. The waitress was lovely and explained that the menus were on the table and a continental breakfast was available on the side for us to help ourselves. She took our drink order immediately, and this was something that was welcomed as we had enjoyed a few drinks in the city the night before. We were both in need of a strong coffee.
We both opted for a full English breakfast. This came with bacon, Yorkshire sausages, half a grilled tomato, mushrooms, black pudding, toast, and an egg. The egg options included either fried, poached, or scrambled. The speed at which the breakfast arrived was quite surprising, and everything was cooked perfectly.
Particular mention must go to the sausages as I am very picky about which sausages I will eat. I often decide as soon as I see a sausage on a plate that I won’t even touch it. The sausages served by Marmadukes Town House Hotel, York, were what I describe as ‘real sausages’. By this, I mean that they clearly had a good meat content and a good firm consistency. They are the type of sausages you buy from the butcher rather than those terrible processed sausages from a supermarket.
Overall, the breakfast at Marmadukes Town House Hotel, York, was great. Our stay, as a whole, was very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others and would go there again. You can view their website here.
