Discovering this Hidden Gem! Nestled away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Cookhouse Bar & Kitchen is a delightful little haven that promises a warm welcome and a memorable dining experience. Whether you're catching up with friends or simply looking for a quiet spot to unwind, this charming establishment is the perfect choice for a tasty breakfast, a light lunch or evening meal. As you step inside, the inviting atmosphere envelops you. The decor is nothing short of immaculate, with thoughtful touches that create a cozy yet stylish vibe. One of the standout features is the real open fire, crackling away and adding to the overall warmth of the space. It’s the kind of place where you can easily lose track of time, engrossed in conversation while enjoying the delightful surroundings. What truly sets Cookhouse apart is its staff. Super friendly and attentive, they ensure that your experience is nothing short of excellent. No request is too much trouble, which makes you feel right at home. During my visit, we indulged in a selection of mains and puddings, and I must say, the Steak and Ale pie was the star of the show! Rich, hearty, and bursting with flavour, it’s a dish that will leave you dreaming about your next visit. As we savoured our meal, I couldn’t help but think about the warmer months ahead. Cookhouse boasts a fantastic outdoor seating area, perfect for enjoying al fresco dining with friends. Picture this: a sunny afternoon, laughter in the air, and delicious food at your fingertips. It’s an experience I’m eagerly anticipating as summer approaches. The Cookhouse Bar & Kitchen is more than just a Bar & Restaurant; it’s a hidden gem with exceptional service, it’s a place I can’t wait to return to regularly.

Not somewhere we'd normally think about going but having heard rave reviews from our neighbours, off we went! The place is IMMACULATE inside, not one piece of the place looks tired or grubby. Absolutely spotless. The food was good, but lost points for the guacamole being far too lemony. The fish (fish and chips) was fairly bland. On the flipside the steak and blue cheese is lovely and the chips were pretty moreish. Plenty of good especially the friendly staff, but nothing outstanding enough to make regulars of us. It's all down to personal taste ultimately isn't it? Because the place itself is very professional.

Once again we have had a wonderful breakfast. We usually choose the pancakes and we are never disappointed. They are lovely. The taste, presentation and service is without fault. The staff, both front house and kitchen are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble, along with the lovely atmosphere it makes for the perfect breakfast.

A great first time experience! We received a warm welcome and were offered a choice of table. Our order was taken promptly and all served in good time. There is a great choice of drinks at the bar and the house wine was 'above par' (excuse the pun)! Food was lovely, really fresh and very good portion sizes. The decor is amazing and the staff are friendly yet professional. I've already recommended to family and friends and we will definitely return again soon. Thank you for a lovely evening, what a fab place to have on our doorstep!

The Cook House has been open for just over a year, and I have made multiple visits during this time. The establishment is beautifully designed and well-maintained, featuring a lovely terrace area that overlooks the grounds and provides outdoor seating. While I find the food enjoyable, I believe it could be considered somewhat overpriced. I have encountered inconsistencies with the menu; the quality and composition of the dishes can vary significantly depending on the chef on duty and the time of preparation. Additionally, I have experienced concerns with portion sizes. On one occasion, I ordered a steak that arrived cold and was accompanied by only nine chips. While I still enjoyed the meal, I feel the portion was inadequate given the £20 price point. Moreover, the menu changes frequently, which can leave returning customers disappointed if they are hoping to order their favorite dishes, which may not only be unavailable but could also come with a higher price tag. The bar is well-stocked, and the staff are responsive. The drinks are priced at a premium, which I find fair considering the quality of the venue. However, I was disappointed to discover that all the cocktails are pre-mixed and served from a bottle. Given the extensive selection of spirits available, I believe offering freshly made cocktails would enhance the overall experience. The majority of the staff are polite and friendly, although I have noticed disparities in workload. For instance, I observed a manager engaging with patrons for extended periods while the remaining floor staff appeared to be overwhelmed with their responsibilities. Furthermore, I have concerns regarding staff working prolonged shifts. It seems some employees are opening the venue with less than 11 hours between shifts, which raises legal and ethical issues. Having worked in the service industry for over a decade, I feel compelled to express that these shortcomings overshadow the otherwise appealing menu and the warm atmosphere of this local restaurant.

I am not a big fan of filling in reviews or feedback forms but on this occasion I absolutely could not, not leave a review. The food and location were superb and would definitely come back for those but the massive stand out reason is the service. I am so sorry I didn’t get your names, I’m sure one was Mick (sorry if im wrong). You took my reservation , served the drinks, took our order, made us feel so welcomed and special, your colleague who brought the food to our table was also so lovely and attentive. You need to look after these guys before someone snaps them up, the service would not be better in any top end restaurant. Thanks for a wonderful experience and will be back very soon ☺️

We have eaten at the restaurant before and not been disappointed. The food, staff and the atmosphere have all been exemplary. Today was the first time we had breakfast at he restaurant. The food was very good and excellent value. Just some room for improvement in the service - the tea came without a spoon, no sauce was offered until I asked, we were not offered a choice on egg preference and the tea cup came with a small milk jug inside. I prefer my tea cup to be as clean as it was after it was washed not after other objects have been inserted.

10/10 Lovely and cosy, great atmosphere and great food. The staff went above and beyond and were so cheery and friendly nothing was too much trouble. We ordered a shepherds pie, burger and kids fish goujans. Food was hot and fresh. The veg had a perfect crunch the only criticism I have is I would have preferred a bit more gravy in the shepherd's pie but that could of been a personal preference. We cant wait to come back again soon.

We booked Cook House for breakfast with family and it did not disappoint.The menu had plenty of choice, with both savoury and sweet options. We all opted for the full english, which had all the classic components, freshly cooked. All washed down with tea and freshly ground coffees. The service was excellent too, with the friendly staff accomodating us with a pram no problem. The stylish interior gives the place a very modern, cosy feel. The whole place is finished to a high spec, even the toilets with great baby change facilities! We will definitely be back to try the evening menu and daily chef specials!

It's definitely worth a try. The only problem I had was that there wasn't any chicken or beef left for Sunday dinner at 3 pm. Also, the food came out without the vegetables, and I had to remind the waitress twice, and by the time it came, I finished my food. The atmosphere makes up for a lot with the music and fire, which was relaxing. I think if they could fix the service part, which is probably an easy fix, it could be 10/10. Also the price was reasonable.

Excellent food and service, not to mention the spacious environment and relaxing ambience. The satay sauce for the fish and chips was a surprise and absolute delight. The cauliflower tampura was the very best and I recommend it to vegetarians. We pre-ordered one day before the dinner, and it made everything easier at the restaurant.

We ate here for the first time last night. The rooms have been tastefully furnished but unfortunately the service and food was very poor. Our one starter the onion bhaji was dry and over cooked. The main meals( Mediterranean kebabs and fish and chips) not very nice, with greasy chips and a very unimaginative kebab meal. Service was poor. The maitre de was pleasant but we waited ages for our drinks order, then an age for the menus so we could choose our meals, then I had to go to the bar to ask if we could have coffees! We also found it very noisy with golfers sat all around us just drinking. I suggest they separate people eating from those just having a drink. Not impressed I'm afraid, a shame as its in a lovely setting.

This has been my local for years. It was superb before Covid and I was a regular. After Covid, it's dropped in quality a bit. The beer is still good (Kirkstall Brewery), but some (not all!) staff are very rude -- something that never happened pre-Covid. Once a person carded me very rudely -- even others at the bar noticed. Just a few weeks ago, a very nasty staff member chastised my exhausted husband for sleeping. I understand that pubs have a no-sleep rule -- for good reason -- and we are fine with being told that. But this staff member did it very rudely "we don't have benches in here" and threatened to ban us for life. When we asked if the ban applied to only my husband or the whole friend group, the staff member replied with something like, "I'm not the police". My husband wrote to the pub with details of the incident and they replied asking for more info, which he gave. I don't know what has happened next, but we have decided not to go back there -- facing the unpleasantness from some staff members is not for us. It's very sad as we used to be regulars and have memories there, and post-Covid still looked on it as a place to relax, but that staff member was so extraordinarily unpleasant that we cannot return.
