A YouTuber has awarded a perfect 10 out of 10 to the South Yorkshire village of Wentworth, which has banned takeaways and fast food outlets. Gary Hanna, who runs the Gary Eats channel, visited the village near Rotherham and was impressed by the quality of local food.
Wentworth, home to about 1,500 residents, gained attention for prohibiting takeaways and supermarkets, earning it the title of Britain's 'strictest' village. Hanna praised the village's traditional approach, urging it to 'keep it traditional' and 'stick to your principles'.
Hanna began his culinary tour at the Village Shop, where he bought a breakfast panini, a steak slab, a chocolate Maltesers cake and a coffee for £13. He described the panini as 'absolutely immense' and the steak slab as 'gorgeous', awarding the shop a perfect 10.
For lunch, he visited the Old Smythie, a family-run bistro, where he tried a ploughman's lunch for £18. The dish featured crusty bread, honey-glazed gammon, local pork pie, Yorkshire blue cheese, pickled onion and chutney. Hanna called it 'absolutely fantastic' and gave the bistro a nine out of 10.
Summarising his visit, Hanna said he loved Wentworth so much he would move there if possible. He gave the village a 10 out of 10, saying: 'Keep it like that, because the produce you're selling here is amazing.'
