La Palma is located on Gowthorpe in the market town of Selby, offering a taste of Italian cuisine in the heart of North Yorkshire. The restaurant is independently owned and operated, with a focus on delivering classic Italian dishes in a relaxed setting.
The restaurant features a contemporary dining space with a mix of table sizes to accommodate both small and larger groups. The open-plan layout includes a visible pizza oven, adding a focal point to the room and emphasising the freshly prepared nature of the food. The setting is straightforward and functional, designed for casual dining rather than formal occasions.
The menu leans into traditional Italian flavours, with a selection of antipasti, pasta, risotto, and pizza alongside meat and fish mains. Dishes are prepared using fresh ingredients, and the menu includes options for both lighter bites and more substantial meals. Specific dishes include bruschetta, calamari, and arancini to start, while mains range from spaghetti carbonara to seafood risotto and a variety of stone-baked pizzas. There’s also a dedicated children’s menu, making it a family-friendly option.
La Palma offers takeaway for those looking to enjoy their Italian favourites at home. Bookings can be made online via the restaurant’s website, and walk-ins are also welcome, subject to availability.
