Wharfe View Cafe

Otley (5-6miles north of Leeds)
Situated on the banks of the River Wharfe, this is a simple 'back to basics' cafe.
Ample portions, good food & cheap.
Last time I was there (September) Steak Pie, Peas, Chips, pint of Tea, Treacle Sponge Pudding cost me £2.60

They bake on site, the Pies aren't the usual fare that comes in tin-foil, but baked in a 2foot square tin & cut out in big chunks.

01943 461262
Corner of Bridge Street & Mill Lane

It looks like this (http://travel.webshots.com/photo/1167107113047309372LXnUGn)

On a wet mid-week day, you'll struggle to find a seat inside. On a sunny  weekend you'll be hard pressed to find a seat outside.

Edit; Thursday 2nd March 2006
Closed for renovation/redecoration at the beginning of February, with a view to being open toward the end of the month.
I haven't had the opportunity to revisit since the re-opening.
As soon as possible, I will & comment on food/prices & decor
(might be Wed 8th - Fri 10th??)

Edit @ Monday 20th March 2006
I made my way to Otley this morning with the specific cause of visiting this establishment.
Redecorated & new windows
Food still good value, hot & piles of it =D>
Meat & Potatoe pie, Chips, Peas & pint-mug of tea all for £2.70

Listened to one man saying he'd been going in there for over 30years, so it must be good to have stayed in business so long!
Even with differing owners through the years, it'd still need to provide good food to survive

Storiths Lane
Storiths (Bolton Abbey)

An excellent little cafe, complete with the added attraction of a  large model railway upstairs & plenty of Hornby, Lima & Fleischmann bits for sale.
You will quite possibly find a variety of live-stock in the adjoining stables; Piglets, Lambs, Puppies, Calfs, etc...  
Plus excellent views from the car-park

BEWARE!!!
If approaching this from the south-east on the A59 down Beamsley Bank, this road is a fast 3-laner.
You are advised to pass Storiths Lane & turn back on yourself at the bottom roundabout, as opposing traffic coming up the hill will use the centre-lane & traffic following you may think you are overtaking when you are actually attempting to turn right.
Narrow approach road

Annies
Leeds Road
Outwood
Wakefield

A first-class Fish & Chip shop.
I was first introduced to this shop over 30 years ago. I remember even 25 years ago all she sold was Fish, Fish-Cakes & Chips - people queued outside before she opened.
Now Annie has diversified; she also sells Mushy Peas & Curry Sauce. People still queue, and that's with 4 others within easy reach.
Quality speaks for itself.

Situated on the A61 between Wakefield & Leeds, about 2miles north of Wakefield. Well worth a diversion of the M1 (junction 41)

Wetherby Whaler

Wetherby

A rather nice fish & Chip shop (& restaurant) in this very nice little (plenty of old coaching inns) market town on the River Wharfe.
Buy your dinner and wander down to sit by the 16th century roadbridge on the riverside park.
If you're feeling up to it, buy a 'Whaler' & Chips

104 Burley Road

A wonderfully obscure Indian restaurant with no licence. However they have an 'arrangement' with the pub next door (Queens Head) for drinks to be taken in to accompany food, or take your own.
Cheap & good food.

A truely spectacular dining experience. The food (bar the rice) is prepared on a large hot-plate at your table by a Chef.
It's all flashing Knives & flames.
A venue for a special evening out

Your Sushi is prepared as you watch as well

The only downside is sharing your table with total strangers (4-6 to a table/hot-plate/Chef)
Oh, and the bills are high. We went in late 2003 & paid around £100.00 for dinner for 2 :shock:  (including Sake & wine for Joanne)

A wonderful restaraunt in the centre of Leeds. Mostly Italian food, but with some variety.
We've just come back (about 45minutes before writing this) & it was excellent.
Very 'Art-Deco' influenced in its interior design, but no worse for it.
Admittedly not the cheapest meals, we paid £150 for 4 of us, but we didn't scrimp on the chosen items.

A typical country pub, with stuffed animals & various hunting prints, there is a wonderful selection of old photographs of the surrounding areas.

It is owned by a Portugese couple & they do a wicked Chicken Piri-Piri

The food on the menu is worth the visit, a bit out of the way to find though.

We visited this wonderfully preserved 'hostelry' on Friday evening.
The squeamish (& the PC brigade) may be put off by the large amounts of stuffed/mounted animals around the interior.

The food comes in h-u-g-e portions if you wish it to (try a 'Billy Bunter', 20 separate items in a Mixed grill!)

Finding a table may be problematic at times, but console yourself by watching the serving staff bringing copious amounts of food from the kitchens'.
Sufficient, even, for an American!!!


Even outside , it's worth a visit, notice the, stables, posting-bell & old sign.

Next time you visit Simmonites (if you can still afford to eat) seek out the Ring O' Bells - it's painted white and situated up a hill, on a road running parallel to the main drag through Thorton.  Great food, impressive portions - never drink and drive so dunno about the beer.

The Grouse at Oakworth - great food, great beer (close enough for the missis to drive).  Also supplier of copious amounts of water when my Rangie boiled on the way home from a playday!


If you like Chinese - The Orient, Keighley next to the bus depot.  Terrific food, nice atmosphere (when you are not the only ones in!)

Leeds (city-centre)
Pudsey
Shipley
Skipton

Website (http://www.aagrah.com/) (includes locations & full menus

Quite possibly the best Indian restaraunt in the county.
Sumptious surroundings, can get very busy.

Booking may be essential on a weekend?
However, we went with a couple of friends to the Garforth branch on Saturday evening (weekend prior to the date of this post) at about 19:30 & could barely get in the door, let alone ask about the possibility of a table.

We then travelled to the branch on the A64 at Copmanthorpe (between Tadcaster & York)
It was busy, but we were seated within 3 minutes of walking in.


The bill?
£67.00 for the four of us, including drinks, starters, mains & side-orders.

Brian (the old landlord) left a few years back (great pity) a string of managers followed and then unfortunately the Boat shut for a while. It is now back open I am told but have not yet been - used to be a regular of mine when I lived in Allerton.

It was extened IIRC under Brians tenure and can now seat more than double what it could.

They did indeed start up their own micro brewery but I'm not sure what has become of this.

Now one of the DeVere chain, it's a Grade 2 listed early (due to being rebuilt in the) 19th Century 'Country House'

We went there on Tuesday evening for the mother-in-laws 60th birthday, having only been in the place previously when researching a wedding reception venue 10 years ago.

Quite an impressive place upon walking in, liveried doorman, etc...
Inumerable ground floor rooms, but in parts very much a conferance venue, as there was lots of 'suits' walking around talking about 'tying up deals, photocopier profit margins'... etc....

The food was okay. thankfully not over reliant on being too fancy/'arty-farty'/with 'drizzles'/'jus'
The amounts definately did not reflect the prices!!


For 5 of us (4 adults, & a 6 year old), the bill with 2 bottles of wine was £206!!

Recently refurbished, & was last visited by us over 10 years ago.

Now it's a reasonably nice little pub. Quiet, unpretentious, with friendly staff.

We went on Friday evening for tea, at roughly 18:00 - 18:30, as it's not a million miles away*

The food thankfully isn't all that 'arty-farty' stuff with 'drizzles' & 'jus' - just good old-fashioned cooking


Joanne had a Sirloin Steak, which came to her exact liking

My proper(???) Steak & Kidney Suet Pudding was well-accepted by me, complete with decent vegetables that appeared freshly prepared - they'd not being boiling in a pan for ages!


As for the beers on offer :-k No idea, I'm tee-total & Joanne had wine

Although, I did notice that they have Theakstons 'Best Bitter' & 'Old Peculiar' on tap


We shall doubtless return



* The West Yorkshire Landy crowd on here may know its location better, if I said that Simon Services (http://www.simonservices.co.uk/) is, quite literally, just around the corner
