The Wheatley Arms - Bradford

The vegan menu at this restaurant is excellent, with four options available for starters, mains, and desserts. The flavors are beautiful and the portion sizes are generous. We will definitely be returning.

What we did really enjoy was the size of the table for 2 it was intimate but no too cramped which is not often found in other places. Food v good and we took the advice for the recommended wine.

Excellent food, good staff and value for money. Would recommend and will definitely be back!

The booking system is terrible. Despite confirming my booking online and receiving an email confirmation, we were greeted with blank stares on arrival and told that they had no record of our booking, finally discovering that they had us booked in for 15.15 instead of 13.15, as per the confirmation email. Barely an apology was forthcoming and we were crammed into a tiny corner before finally being reseated. Our party included my 92 year old, diabetic Mother whose birthday it was. The standard of the food at the Wheatley is still excellent but something has gone badly wrong with the service our experience last time we visited, several weeks ago, was equally chaotic. This does need addressing asap before the Wheatley’s excellent reputation which has been carefully built up since it opened, is quickly destroyed: word spreads very quickly in Ilkley!

This was not our first visit, but this time the lamb Sunday lunch was chewy, could not cut it with knife, such a shame.
