One of Royston's most iconic buildings, Banyers House in Melbourn Street, re­ opened its doors in December 2016. Situated within easy walking distance of the town centre, this Grade II listed Georgian building has been transformed into a destination venue with a dedicated car park, 90-seat restaurant, extensive bar area and nine boutique-style bedrooms.

Open all day from 8am, we serve a seasonal, Mediterranean-inspired menu in the light filled orangery and elegant dining room. Whether you're tempted to try a Neapolitan pizza, freshly prepared by one of our trained pizzaiolos and cooked in our wood-fired oven, or one of our dishes cooked to order in our charcoal­ fuelled Josper grill, you'll find we place great emphasis on the quality and provenance of our ingredients. For families, we offer a bespoke children's menu with accompanying activity pack, whilst most dietary requirements are met with ease.

With its extensive and varied drinks menu, our bar area provides a range of comfortable seating options, including a separate lounge bar that can be transformed into a private dining or function room to suit any special occasion or business event.

Completing the experience, our boutique style, en-suite bedrooms have been sympathetically designed and comfortably furnished to reflect the building's unique characteristics whilst at the same time providing those essential personal touches that make you feel at home.

    Lovely lunch and great service! We haven’t been for a few months and the food was really good. Especially the half chicken. We’ve forgotten our waiters name (he did a mean moon walk and was covering for 2 weeks from another restaurant) he could not do enough for us and really made my 81 year old mum feel special. Will definitely be back!

    Absolutely fantastic food and services in the beautiful restaurant. We only had a 3 course lunch here, though if that is anything to go by I'm sure the accommodation would be brilliant too. Very highly recommended and we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you for the excellent service.

    We recently visited for lunch and it was very nice. I had the fish finger sandwich and it was delicious. We bought a pizza for our child and I would've been pleased to have it myself. It's not the cheapest of places but we walked out thinking it was definitely worth it. We didn't go outside but the outside area looks like it would be great in the good weather.

    We held our post Wedding Dinner here, the service was fantastic and they managed to accommodate all 26 of us even after a Plumbing leak had lead to the original room being unavailable. The alternative room and atmosphere they created was amazing and hats off to the whole team especially Hannah and Kim who organized it all. For those also looking for an event venue this is a great place to choose in Royston and has two set menu's of options to choose from. I can testify that Set Menu A was not only amazing but all of our group loved it. We also had a couple of our group staying at Banyers House as well and they enjoyed their over night stay.

    I recently had the pleasure of having breakfast at Banyers, and it was truly an exceptional experience! From the moment me and my friend walked in, we were greeted by Kimberley, who was not only approachable but also extremely professional. Kim served me and my friend and was quick 🙂 The staff was incredibly friendly, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere. The dining atmosphere was cosy and quiet perfect for a chat and a bite to eat. Now, let's talk about the food. The brioche was out of this world - hands down, the best I've ever had! The quality of the breakfast and drinks was outstanding, and what's even better is that all of this came at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Banyers to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. The combination of delicious food, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere, and reasonable prices make it a true gem in the restaurant scene. Five stars all the way!
