This impressive new Italian dining spot has just opened in Hull's Old Town, and we were among the first to try it out this weekend 😍 Pasco’s Italian has made its long-awaited debut in Hull city centre with a flagship dining experience. Located in King William House on Lowgate, this stunning new venue is very open, with a modern design, high ceilings, and spacious layout which makes it perfect for family dinners or date nights. They'll soon be adding floral and botanical decoration too to make it more stylish. The menu offers the same gorgeous cuisine served at their sister restaurants in Beverley and Cottingham, including wood-fired pizzas, classic pastas, indulgent desserts, and dishes like Steak Gorgonzola and the Vegan Primavera Penne pasta. We tried the grilled rump steak, cooked to perfection—tender and full of flavour—and a Calzone stuffed with ham, pepperoni, mushrooms, spinach, ricotta, tomato, and mozzarella. Both were absolutely delicious, with portions as generous as ever! Pasco’s is also launching a brand-new 'Grab n Go' concept, featuring authentic Italian focaccia bread topped with delights like rocket and Italian meats, as well as a Pasco’s Coffee House. We think Pasco’s is a great addition to Old Town and think you’ll love it.

This new indulgent winter menu has arrived in Hull city centre! 😍 Heavenly Desserts on Paragon Street is known for its luxurious desserts and unique twists on brunch classics. And now, they’ve added a winter menu that’s perfect for the colder months. We tried the salted butterscotch and walnut cookie dough - gooey, rich, and absolutely gorgeous. The caramel and almond blondie delivered a buttery, caramel crunch, while the strawberries and cream cheesecake lolly was as fun to eat as it was delicious. We also recommend this chocolate hazelnut croffle, a croissant-meets-waffle creation. 🧇 The drinks are just as tempting. The macadamia hot chocolate was a rich, nutty delight, the caramel waffle latte adds spiced caramel with a cinnamon finish, and the gingerbread white hot chocolate blends creamy white chocolate with festive gingerbread spices. ☕ If you’re not much of a sweet tooth, Heavenly Desserts also offers a wide selection of savoury options, from brunch bowls and side plates to teas and smoothies. The winter menu is only available until the end of January, so don’t put it off too long! Pop in, try it out, and let us know your favourites. 😋 For opening times & location see our website or 👇https://hullwhatson.com/places/heavenly-desserts/ @heavenlydesserts Heavenly Desserts UK #Hull #WinterMenu #Desserts

This vibrant NEW Mediterranean bar and restaurant has just opened in Willerby 🤩 Palm Restaurant & Cocktail Bar opened last Friday, and it’s already making waves with its Turkish-inspired menu, drinks and stylish decor that you’d expect to find on holiday! On the menu, you’ll find salad bowls, fresh sea food, burgers, brunch and a long list of hot and cold meze which are tapas-style dishes served in the Mediterranean. We couldn’t get enough of their hummus which was so smooth, creamy and incredibly flavourful! But the real stars are the hearty chicken, lamb and kofta dishes, cooked slowly over their charcoal grill, and served on a huge platter with hot and fresh bazlama flatbreads, grilled peppers, tomatoes, two very tasty rices, and five different meze dishes. The cocktails were delicious - we loved the mojito and the espresso martini - and they even cater for vegetarians. We loved Palm and think it’s a great addition to the bar scene in Willerby and west Hull. You’ll find it on Kingston Road in Willerby, opposite The Hop Pole and near the roundabout.

Hearty Polish festive feast in Hull 😋

We absolutely loved this hearty Polish Christmas feast, now available at this family restaurant in Hull 😋 Located on Beverley Road, Nova Polish Restaurant and Bar is a family-run gem offering hearty Polish dishes inspired by the owners’ own family meals growing up in Poland. Their festive traditions shine through, especially at Christmas when fish is served on Christmas Eve, and pork or chicken takes centre stage on Christmas Day. We started with some classic Polish starters, including a cold fish and vegetable dish that’s a Christmas Eve tradition in Poland and a rich chicken liver pâté with toasted bread and caramelised onion. Both were beautifully prepared and full of flavour. For mains, the tender pork fillet in a wild mushroom sauce was really creamy and the confit duck leg with slow-cooked red cabbage was a comforting and delicious combination. Our kids loved the crispy chicken goujons and fries, while we all shared a refreshing mixed salad too. Desserts were just as impressive. The chocolate fudge brownie with vanilla ice cream was baked perfectly. And this festive gingerbread tiramisu and the gingerbread base Polish cheesecake were the perfect flavours to finish off. The whole menu is in Polish but don’t worry, everything has been translated into English already so you’ll only need to practice your linguistic skills if you’re really trying to impress your other half 😉 There’s convenient parking around the back and an inviting atmosphere for families so we highly recommend giving it a try.

This cosy Christmas mini-market with street food stalls has just opened at Hull Marina! 😁 Hull’s Humber Street has been sprinkled with festive magic; these seasonal treats, handcrafted gifts, and delicious street foods will kickstart your Christmas! There’s a strong emphasis on independent traders, and it shines through in everything on display, like these locally made wreaths, light bottles, baubles, and artisanal treats. Brought to you by the chefs behind local favourites such as Roots, La Cantina Mexicana and The Greek, the food and drink were the stars of the show. We tried the incredible Christmas burrito packed with roast turkey, potatoes, pork clementine, apple stuffing, and cranberry sauce, as well as the steak and beef dripping chips with blue cheese sauce. These hot dogs were another standout, loaded with fried onions and a choice of sauces - simple but banging! Festive treats like this tasty crumble are a must-try, and the drinks were flowing with steins of beer and cocktails from the Prosecco Cube adding some seasonal sparkle. The Smoke Room are also serving up these smoked pig-in-blanket dogs and pulled pork baps, with more stalls maybe opening soon. There’s even Elfie Selfies photo opportunities and writing letters to Santa… for the kids! The market opens this Friday and runs until 29th December, with daily hours from 12 - 10, except on Christmas Day, when the market’s team will instead focus on providing meals for the homeless.

We had an exclusive first look behind the scenes at this new Italian restaurant and interactive e-sports hub opening in Old Town soon, and you can be the first to experience it with some special preview events this December 🤩 The former Argos store on Lowgate has been completely renovated, ready for locally-loved Italian restaurant, Pasco’s, and Federation of Sport, which is set to revolutionise the city’s leisure scene with an exciting blend of sports and gaming. This cutting-edge venue will feature a range of incredible simulators and games, all using the latest Virtual Reality technology, from golf and racing simulators to darts and e-sports tournaments.
