The Restaurant and Bar in Leeds

We ate at the Thorpe Park Hotel Restaurant and Bar several times during our stay. The evening meals were very good, the Eggs Benedict at breakfast was excellent, and the Blackberry Crumble Cronut (in the Courtyard Café) was superb – although we did find the Courtyard Café a bit expensive, it is a lovely room. Lovey outside seating area.

La comida con un excelente servicio - ¿qué más se puede pedir. Recomiendo el bacalao frito. Y el desayuno era igual de bueno.

Paré por una copa de vino para mí y una Guinness para mi esposo. Compartí un pequeño plato de calamares para despegar después de un largo día de trabajo y viaje. Muy buen ambiente.

After enjoying a spa day we then went to have our afternoon tea that was booked for 2pm. On arrival into the terrace area no member of staff was around to speak to. After a good while a member of your waitressing team, Claire, who was bringing food out of the kitchen serving others, saw us and kindly spoke to us and found us a table. Unfortunately no table was set for us, however, she was very apologetic and rushed to set our table. The other tables around us were cluttered and not cleared after people leaving. Other people were sat undeserved for a long time and I didn't see many servers on the shop floor. Throughout our afternoon tea we were not offered any more drinks or even approached by your staff to see if everything was ok. Very disappointing service!!

Came for a spa day today and the spa was ok but when going for afternoon tea our table was not ready and we were left waiting a long time for someone to help us . After getting our food we were never asked again if we needed a drink. The table next to us we not cleared and dirty pots were left for over 1hour. These factors would stop me returning again.😢

Went for a family celebration meal last evening. We had the room to ourselves over looking the swimming pool it was a really nice ambience. The starter was mushroom soup which was lovely and came with a little what I thought was a baby muffin , but was garlic bread in a little case, very nice presentation tasted lovely. Then we had lamb sliced on a bed of mash potato with baby parsnips, roast potatoes and new potatoes, the gravy was so tasty. The pudding was pavolova which was pink with fresh summer fruits, finished off with coffee .mints and a little short bread biscuit. The catering staff that served us were young girls which did a marvellous job. We were served quickly and efficiently and cleared the dishes away as soon as we had finished our meal. I would recommend every one to go there for a meal. Would lie to go there again.

Had a couple of beers and then had a burger. Not that side a choice on the menu but it does seem to be of a good quality.

A good selection of dishes are available including fish, meat and vegetarian options not withstanding the daily change in the special menu. The food is delicious but portions aren't on the large side and majority of dishes are a little pricey but then again the quality of the ingredients used speak (taste) for themselves. I would recommend for a treat!

Had another lovely mel at this hotel. Lots of choice, excellet flavours and service. I would hghly recommend.

We live in the South of England so are used to expensive drin prices. However, even we were shocked how expensive the drinks in the bar and restaurant were. The food here was good but not great. Corporate at best.

You have to really want to eat here of have no viable alternative. The food is okay but no better, but, being a hotel, the prices are very very high.

Love eating here. Feels like a treat every time. The food is really good, especially the chateaubriand 🤗. The fact I can get a martini expresso just ices the cake.

Change of menu and not the best change - the previous prawn cocktail with Bloody Mary sauce replaced with prawn and salmon timbale with Bloody Mary sauce - well a few blobs around the timbale. Not as good as the previous offering. The lamb rump replaced with braised lamb- again not to the previous offering. The braised lamb was overdone . The venison was nicely cooked but two absolutely huge slices of venison - would have preferred them smaller and more fine dining in presentation. The red wine and chocolate sauce was too much of a chocolate flavour and overpowered the dish. The Sancerre was lovely and the cheese course was of a good selection of local cheeses. Very generous portions of cheese. The courses were served very quickly - one after another with little lingering time between but I guess many people like that so it's no criticism merely an observation. All in all a decent experience.

Had lunch, afternoon tea and dinner here. All were 'ok' but nothing to rave about - and expensive for what you get.

If you're in the area, you've gotta visit this place. We visited on. Friday night and although the surrounding industrial area was dead, Franco's was buzzing! Welcoming, friendly staff and great food!.

Cenamos regularmente en este restaurante así que dolores saltar en TA a escribir una crítica, pero el restaurante muy escasos perdió una oportunidad para corregir lo que era una absoluta de un acidente de coche de lo que se suponía que iba a ser una noche especial.

Food really good very hot tasty great service. you have to go to appreciate how good it is. 4 people went and all 4 really rated the food.

A fantastic 3 course birthday meal, with steak that was cooked to perfection, absolutely delicious a fantastic meal in superb setting.

Grosero! Peldaño a hora de tener sobre una tabla nos dijeron que sólo apareció en la llegada, pero parece ser que el restaurante estaba lleno (parecía completamente vacío) y la mujer que "recibió" nos dijo que sentarse dondequiera en el patio o el bar. Las mesas en el patio estaban sucios y llenos de bebidas sin recoger y platos y estábamos rodeados de los huéspedes del balneario enrobed. No es realmente la recepción o ambiente que estábamos buscando, así que nos fuimos!

I have used the hotel on many occasions and had afternoon tea when using the spa which has always been okay, but today I booked just afternoon tea for myself and a friend and was disappointed at the service and quality of the sandwiches and sweet selection. I had to send the scones back which were clearly burnt, and the fillings for the sandwiches were poor. This was the first time my friend had been to the venue and she was surprised at how poor it was, based on my previous visits I'd told her about. Next time I'll stick to taking friends out to the Yorkshire dales for quality afternoon tea.

Attended a business dinner for 20+ business colleagues here in April. The meal was superb and the service was extraordinary. Each individual received the correct order and each was cooked to perfection.I would recommend this establishment to anyone but most especially those staying at the Thorpe Park Hotel & Spa.

We usually meet up here once or twice a week for a meeting in the courtyard area of the hotel. They have now changed the format of this area for the worst my I add, you do not get table service any more and for a 4 star hotel that charges these prices that is not good enough. You have to que to get your food and drink every time so if you were to stay for a while your forever up and down. Well not any more it's a shame because the staff are great but the new format just does not work will now have to find else where to meet.

My partner and I called in for lunch on Saturday. I haven't been for a while but it has always been good either in The Courtyard or the Restaurant. We took a table in the Courtyard and realised they are no longer doing table service......this is not what I expect from a 4 star hotel! Next thing to change were the menus, before it was lovely A4 size menus and now they are just pathetic size booklets on the table which totally down grades the experience and makes it more like a local cafe.I totally don't understand why they have stopped taking orders from the table, especially as you don't even pay when you order your food, so what is the point! It made the whole experience of a nice saturday lunch out disappointing and even though we are fairly local to here we will be going elsewhere unless this set up changes. It is sad that this is the case as the food was nice and the waiting staff are pleasant and after chatting to a few of them it is clear they don't like this new approach but management do not seem to care about their customers experience.I for one will be going to Oulton Hall instead of here, where you get the experience of at least a 4 star hotel!

Bar snacks in the bar or full menu service and the restaurant is a la carte with daily menu. Candle lit and intimate if you want to be or private dining for larger conference groups.Excellent choice and quality. The Tempura Prawns are seriously good and the vegetable curry is divine. Top quality steaks etc. The slow braised blade of beef with garlic mash is delicious.

Menu offers an excellent choice. Order arrived quickly on hot plates and was very nicely presented. Restaurants often pay little attention to the dessert menu but this was good as well.

Ate in the restaurant on 2 of our 3 night break. Food excellent and service brilliant - plenty of choices and the Chef's recommendation each night. The setting in very romantic and secluded. Would use again.

First of all I must say that my rating is nothing to do with the food at all as it was very good idea.. My rating is yo do with customer service, being in the business myself I found out today that Thorpe Park has a lot of training to do with regards to FOH. Our group arrived at 1.30pm for pre lunch drinks which took 20mins to arrive, then we were ushered through to the restaurant with our menus and then they took another 20mins before our order was taken. As I said earlier the food cannot be faulted at all.. Quite clearly there seems to to a severe lack of customer service training at this hotel and if it doesn't improve we won't be back..

Stayed here for 2 nights on business and ate both times here. Excellent Service, Very tasty good food, good choice of menu and adapted mine for dietary requirements.

A good restaurant. Good food selection and nice ambience, albeit dark. Menu is not extensive, but for the infrequent visitor it has a good enough selection. Food presentation is good too.

Great food and as a delegate on a training course there was excellent choice. Service reasonably good given that we were a large group.

Very good quick service , well served lunch and diners ! Breakfast a bit of a bun fight and cutlery missing .

Me and my partner ate here for the first time and I already know I will be returning to try one of the other delicious choices on the menu. I had the fillet steak and it was extremely tasty, cooked perfectly and presented beautifully. I asked if they could do me a side order of asparagus, even though it wasn't on the menu. It was no problem at all, once again cooked and seasoned beautifully and we were only charged the same as a side of green veg; brilliant. The waitresses were so professional and nothing was too much trouble for them. Highly recommended and I can not wait to try the Yorkshire lamb on my next visit.

My wife and her friend booked an afternoon tea at this hotel.They were shown into a dimly lit room overlooking the indoor swimming pool which was deserted except for the two of them.The food was very disappointing and as this venue was only £1 cheaper than the far superior Oulton Hall which is just 2 miles away I would suggest anyone should go there.Further after thinking of the experience my wife thought it appropriate to telephone the manager and complain.The manager returned my wife's call the following morning but after a few minutes of conversation he hung up.What customer service?

Food was absolutely wonderful could not fault it, service was flawless. We had bread and oils, goats cheese erring and tempura prawns are highly recommended. Lamb rump was beautiful as was the crispy duck.. Great choice for children's menu too. Definitely worth a visit

The food is delicious! Large portions and wonderful service. The breakfasts were very nice too. There is a wide choice of options available to suit all tastes.

Working near by meant this was the obvious place to grab a coffee for meetings. It's horrendously expensive. The service ia adequate at best. I've not stayed in it as a hotel but if the welcome you get in the bar is repeated then I can't imagine even wanting to.

Stopped by for a spot of lunch and was not disappointed. Had the fishermans plank to share between the two of us. The quality of the food and service was fantastic but the portion side a little on the light side. The menu didnt specify whether the platter was a sharing platter or not but the price (at £15.99), indicated it would be for two. Still, very happy with the overall experience and will definitely be back.

Visited this hotel on business and enjoyed fantastic food and drink throughout my two day stay. From a hearty breakfast in the morning to a lovely three course dinner. The staff were attentive throughout and the courtyard is a fantastic place to relax.

We went in our lunch hour for a coffee and a Ploughman's sandwich, 45 minutes later our lunch arrived on brown bread instead of white, we sent them back. Eventually our Ploughman's arrived and we had 10 minutes to eat our lunch before having to be back at work. The restaurant was quiet so there really was no excuse. How long does it take to make a sandwich????This isn't the first time this has happened, the service is repeatedly rubbish and the prices are way too high for the standard of service you get. If you have an hour for lunch don't go here!

We recently had my Mum and Dad's 60th Wedding Anniversary celebration lunch at the Hotel and from start to finish I received nothing but professional guidance and the best of service. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was first class along with the careful arrangment of the table, service and delivery. I wish to thank all staff involved with special mentions to Linda (our hostess) Ashley, Amy and the hard working chef whose name i didnt manage to find out.WELL DONE and Thankyou all so much

Had a great Diamond wedding party there last Saturday 4th April, really nice experience, food, surroundings and the staff all to be recommended, special thanks to our waitress Chloe, a real gem and so attentive to our every request, thank you Chloe.Can and would recommend the Hotel to anyone thinking of having a function.Neil

We usually go for bar snack never disappointed. Service is excellent and food well presented and good value. Sunday lunch is a treat in a very pleasant dining room leading on to a patio. Lovely hotel and nice place to relax with family and friends or as a couple. Busy at weekends with weddings but quiet during week. Staff are always pleasant and welcoming.good choice on bar menu which changes throughout the year.

We have just had a three course Sunday lunch with a glass of proscecco £46 with plenty of choice for each course.We had a Prawn cocktail and Yorkshire Pudding for our starters excellentThe roast beef and gravy was delicious and so were the good selection of vegetables The treacle tart and sticky toffee pudding was almost illegal It was all very well presented and value for money The service was excellent staff couldn't do enough for youIt would be a good place to impress We will returning soon

We visited Thorpe Park whilst in-between holidays at Christmas and the New Year. In previous years the restaurant and bar areas have close during this period and we have reluctantly had to venture further afield but one assumes the timing of the holidays this year gave the hotel the opportunity to see what footfall would be like.Having dined in the restaurant for many years now it is refreshing to see the standard of service has not declined and the food remains excellent quality.On an evening the restaurant has a very different ambience, the low lighting sets a nice romantic atmosphere which seems to be popular with couples or guests residing in the hotel.For wine recommendations seek out Michael, very knowledgeable and understands wine pairings, we tried a bottle we would normally avoid and thoroughly enjoyed it.Food recommendations, the tempura prawns are always a winner and if you are lucky to be a spa member the chateaubriand is very reasonable if you factor in spa discount.Excellent all round.

OMG! Just had the most amazing day at Thorpe Park Spa.Booked early January on the recommendation of my sister who had been for the last 4 years. It has been fantastic! We had 4 courses and each one was well presented and served piping hot. I cannot thank the staff enough for such great service. A special thanks to all the Chefs and staff in the kitchen, you worked so hard to make it all look so simple with no flaws! Santa came out too with gifts for all the children! Every member of staff we came into contact with was cheerful, and excellent at their role. A credit to all the team, and a big thank you for making our first Christmas away from home very very special indeed. We would definitely recommend Thorpe Park to others, don't look at others... This IS the best....

I came here for lunch only and can honestly say it was one of the best meals I have ever had. I had a tiger prawn linguine which was amazing. It was one of the dearest meals on the menu but worth every penny. The surroundings are very sophisticated and relaxing and the staff were wonderful.

We visited for one of the (occasional) wine dinners, this one was French themed. Staff looked after us, food (no choice but menu advertised in advance) was excellent and accompanying wines matched well. The short introductory talk about each wine was informal, not stuffy and ony took a couple of minutes. Can recommend and we will attend another.

We came on a Sunday to celebrate a birthday. There were about forty of us and the service was good. It's always difficult serving so many people with drinks then three courses but the staff had it all sorted right down to the meal you had pre-ordered being neatly typed on the back of the name cards for each place - saved having to remember what you fancied when you chose several week beforehand. We came here for a wedding a few years back and the same organising flair was evident then too.To the food!Prawn cocktail was pretty standard a bit watery at the bottom. Serves me right for being boring. Roast beef was good, a thick slice of sirloin but accompanied by a rather iffy Yorkshire pudding - I'm an Essex boy but I've lived in Yorkshire for thirty odd years so I know a decent pudding when it's put in front of me.For afters I had ice cream, coffee was nice too.We'd started out sitting in the atrium while everybody arrived. A nice airy space but perhaps in need of a lick of paint around the uplighters.There was plenty of parking space at Sunday lunchtime but there are barriers at the gate and notices giving the charges. As it happened the barriers were up when we came so we got a freebe but I think I'd resent having to pay £3 to park my car if I was staying overnight.
