Welcome to The Lime House Restaurant

Adam & Catherine Fisher’s award winning restaurant is situated in the picturesque centre of York, 2 minutes away from York Minster & The Shambles. Over the last six years they have created a special reputation for excellence, with outstanding food being complemented by a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Adam - "At the beginning of my career I was taught the essential element for creating quality in the kitchen - attention to detail - this gave me a springboard for my enthusiasm to explore new ideas for wonderful food. I learnt about culinary variety at The Green House in Mayfair,& about the qualities of fish in a Mediterranean Restaurant in the South of France. As Chef/Director of Cafe Bleu in Newark I achieved entry into the Good Food Guide. I am passionate about using good quality local produce. In January 2005 our restaurant was featured in the ITV series Raw Chefs, about six family run restaurants in the north of England all dedicated to using produce from the region. In July 2006 we were nominated in the UKTV "Local Food Hero's"campaign, featured on Sky Television, a series featuring small businesses who favour high quality local ingredients.

I love to discover new ways of incorporating ingredients in my dishes to suit different palates. The menu is changed regularly and updated on the website. Special diets such as Gluten Free, are a welcome challenge - if you inform us in advance of your dietary requirements we can ensure you have a selection of dishes to choose from - 01904 632734."

Catherine - "I am delighted to be back in my native Yorkshire to fulfil our dream of owning & running our own restaurant & to raise our young family. I want to provide all Lime House customers with a mix of those things that enhance an excellent meal: welcoming staff, soft candle light, flowers & intimate background music - an atmosphere for you to enjoy with friends, colleagues or family. Our aim is to ensure all customers enjoy a meal to remember."
