We looked at the 322 pubs with a public Google rating and an address in North Yorkshire (checked 4 October 2026). Every figure below is counted from those listings. Nothing is estimated.

- Bar: 30
- 3-star hotel: 16
- 4-star hotel: 8

How many reviews?
Between them they have 237,106 Google reviews. The most reviewed is The Winter Gardens with 8,051 (rated 4.3). The median is 449 reviews per listing, and 20 have fewer than 50, which is too few to say much about.
Food hygiene
We could match 232 of them to the Food Standards Agency register. 176 of those hold the top rating of 5, and 8 hold a 2 or lower. Hygiene ratings are the council inspector's, not Google's, and can be out of date.
Method
Source: each business's Google Maps listing (4 October 2026). Ratings and review counts move daily, so treat this as a snapshot. See the best-of rankings for how we order them, and the full list.
