TEJANOS, Northallerton’s Tex-Mex joint, had been on the list for a takeaway experience way back in the first lockdown. We’ve always liked it, not least because it has managed to survive arguably the most inhospitable environment for restaurants in North Yorkshire – namely the county town’s High Street. It has done so without the benefit of a High Street frontage. In normal times you really have to seek it out, via an entrance down an alleyway by the side and Lakeland Leather. Beyond the first-floor signage, the clues to its presence are not obvious. That speaks of above and beyond staying power and they have mostly traded through the last year either properly open or offering takeaways and delivery services. Trouble was during the first lockdown it was so popular we could never get through to place an order.
