The Best Restaurants in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

I believe The Scullery is the best restaurant in Huddersfield. I have now been 4 times, including for an anniversary dinner and even once just to have a sit down and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere with a glass of mulled wine. The homemade food is always stunning, made with fresh and seasonal ingredients (they change their menu to fit the season because they use local products). I love their fish dishes and the second time I went I had the most amazing soup. The service is good and staff always do their best to accommodate even on busy days. I could not praise this place enough, absolutely love the food. The Scullery is a hidden gem and I will come again!!

We had a family meal last night ( Saturday 21st Dec) and just had to write this review. It was absolutely fantastic. The food was delicious and it all came out perfect. The service was incredible, all the staff were so friendly and very attentive. A credit to them all… The owner ( Steve I think) was such a lovely man within the hospitality sector. We will all be definitely coming back to this beautiful restaurant in the near future. Highly recommended..

A big THANKYOU to Steve, Helen and the team for our staff Christmas do! The food, atmosphere and social setting was amazing for our team to enjoy some well deserved time off. If you are thinking of hosting a works event or family and friends occasion we would certainly recommend. Thankyou from the Peter Roberts team.

We have visited this restaurant more than any other since they opened in 2019 and the standards have always been high (in fact I think they get better!). The food is modern British cuisine using locally sourced seasonal ingredients and the flavours on offer are bold and delicious. The Sunday Lunch menu is a real highlight with 3 courses for £30 featuring a selection of Roast Dinners that are hard to beat. The Brunch menu is really varied with your traditional Full English, Eggs Benedicts, Avo on Toast as well as some new additions like Savoury Crepes and Pancake Stacks for the sweet tooths- you can also go bottomless with some refreshing Mimosas and Bellinis. The standard A La Carte has some fantastic options too- a decent list of small plates if you fancy tapas style as well as some gorgeous main course dishes to suit every palate. The signature Steak and Ale Pie is not to be missed and has been consistently good since day one! As we approach summer do not skip their stunning secret garden which on a sunny day makes you forget you are in Huddersfield- our favourite place to relax with great food and drinks. Talking of drinks, the wine list is extensive and they have picked some truly fabulous wines to pair with the food. There is also a cocktail list as well as local beers. Steve and Helen do an amazing job at running the best restaurant in Huddersfield- we highly recommend a visit but be warned you will keep going back for more

Lovely restaurant, with great atmosphere and friendly, welcoming service. The food is gorgeous and beautifully presented, with a nice selection to choose from , that has changed each time I have been so there is always something different to try. Definitely recommend and a great addition to Lindley.

Went as a group of six on the recommendation of two in our group. Lovely restaurant, knowledgable waitress on the menu both food and drinks, great service and amazing food! Restaurant was closing and we were still sat around talking but not rushed out by staff. Would recommend and will also be back again.

Our first visit and certainly not our last! We came to Sapori to celebrate my birthday with my family and it was excellent. The service was amazing from minute one with the right amount of attention to us and very helpful recommendations with ordering. We had starters and mains. The food portions don’t look huge but honestly they are made with such flavour and richness that it is the perfect amount. I personally had the salmon tortellini and it was beautiful and I believe the ragu was a hit with my parents! My brother hate the Nutella pie dessert which was simply divine. Wine was also pleasantly wonderful which was clearly imported rather than chemicalised British wine (basically, we felt like we were in Italy). And to top it off, we were given free limoncello to celebrate my birthday! Thank you to the Sapori team, we will be back.

Was there with my family for a Christmas Eve's dinner. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, making you feeling like at home with friends. Food was incredibly yummy, of good quality and quantity, asthetically pleasing and also everything taste just like proper italian Food. Overall experience was absolutely amazing and i will definatelly come back asap.

Have visited multiple times and it's always lovely food and service, complimentary crackers on arrival with a vegetarian version on request which are so good! We took advantage of the early bird menu on a Tuesday evening which is great value and everything we had was delicious. Highly recommend :)

The food was beautiful!!! We had a set menu for 2 and everything was amazing! Especially the Tiger tears (steak!) and penang curry. We don't live anywhere near Huddersfield but we'll be back!

Excellent service and very delicious food.. we saved some ££ on early bird menu . Loads of options for vegetarian and vegans. Good ambience and top class service . We even got a special sweet treat to celebrate our day..thank you ,we shall visit again .

This is one of my favourite places to eat around the area I currently live. The food is always fresh and delicious while the service is outstanding. I'm going to leave our favourite dishes below. Starter: - no. 12 (Gung Chut Beng Tort - deep fried prawns) rated 10/10 by my wife. - no. 6 (Sea-Krong Moo - slow baked spare ribs in a sweet and sour sauce) rated 9/10 by my dad. I'm sure it was a 10/10 but some elders don't believe in perfection. 👀🤣 Mains: - no. 30 (Pad Gra-pao - spicy stir fry) 9.5/10 Other dishes we had in the past and loved: No. 10 (Geaw Tort) No. 15 main (Tom Yam) No. 26 (Geng Pbaa "Jungle Curry") No. 34 (Pad Pet Nor Mai) No. 44 (Geng Pet Ped Yang) No. 64 (Pad Pak Pasom) If you can't handle spicy food, ignore ny favourites and only take into account the food quality and the service.

It was my firtst time in the place. I was happy when I found that they make corn dog! The food was delicious. The staff very friendly. Many people were celebrating their birthdays. As United States of America style, they charge 7% (I think) tip included in the bill but you can take it off if you want. The gravy was the best I had so far in the UK. The only think I didn't like was the buch of smokers right on the entrance so when you get in or go out you get the smoke right on to your nose wich is no nice. Smoking so close to the entrance should be prohibited. There is lots of space where smokers can go and damage their lungs without damaging others. But... I will definitely get back.

Went here to celebrate a birthday. We were a party of 30 and they accommodated us brilliantly. The food came out all together so nobody was waiting, the staff were brilliant and of course the food was delicious.

We have enjoyed the food and atmosphere as it is a lot different than what you can usually find in a lot of restaurants in UK. As I wanted to try different meats available, I went with Go big or go home burger that came with fries and salad. While tasty, it was hard to eat and it was warm, not hot. Unfortunately, that (not being hot) seem to be the case for most of the food. Even though it was loud inside, we could still chat without issues. Staff members were really friendly and helpful too. Overall, it feels like it would be a good place for larger parties or celebrations with few different than usual dishes. At the end, just a warning for anyone who is particular about the fat in their food, you should be careful about choosing ribs or steak while burgers should be fine.

Never been here before, so once a first for me. Really enjoyed it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was beautiful. Giant onion rings were amazing. The platter for 1 was huge and got to admit defeat. So much meat....

We’ve been coming to Grappolos for years for various birthdays and family get togethers! The food is always lovely, the waiters are always pleasant and welcoming. Thank you.

Absolutely perfect! The staff were amazing, I had my 14 month old with me and they entertained him for a little bit so I could eat. Really friendly and the food and atmosphere was fantastic. Definitely recommend and I can't wait to go back!

Bobby goes above and beyond every time we visit! All staff are attentive to detail and are so welcoming! I’ve been coming here for 20 years and I’ve received the same level of service from day one. A great place for a celebratory dinner with friends/ family or a romantic meal for two. Grappolos caters for all!

First time visiting, won't be the last. Food was delicious, delivered timely and not over facing. The service was quick and the staff were charming. There was a birthday party ongoing when we visited, lively without being raucous. Would highly recommend this Huddersfield Gem!

This is my go to restaurant for my teams Christmas meal, second year we have been and the food has been amazing, great staff, great atmosphere warm and welcoming. We will most definitely be back December 24 God willing!

Chose this as it was one of the highest rated food places in Huddersfield. Satisfied - for 17.50 you get a nice 2 course meal eg king prawns starter and sizzling lamb guvec. Nice crispy chips with the chicken marmaris too. Food served speedily. Conveniently located right in front of the train station. Clean, bright toilet. No regrets.

I have been here twice in 2 weeks. Wonderful experience Food is tasty Service is good Staff is so kind so friendly Atmosphere was perfect

Very friendly service. large portion size. We all enjoyed our meal very much and packed the rest to take back! A great eat in experience!

The creamy Caribbean chicken pasta with cheese is a must if you go to Manjaros! Also, their grilled chicken in lemon and herbs sauce. Just wow. So tasty and tender and the same time. They have parking so just enter your car reg in their tablet at the till. 10/10 for the food and service. Very welcoming staff

Visited with friends and family recently and our visit was nothing short of spectacular. The atmosphere there is so welcoming, and the staff is super friendly. The dishes are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. It's definitely my go-to place for a lovely meal with great service. Our waitress was extremely accommodating to our dietary requirements and gave us recommendations which most definitely did not disappoint. Will definitely be visiting again!

Fantastic experience! We celebrated a special occasion here, and everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, with great options for everyone, including gluten-free dishes. Highly recommend Cosy Kitchen for both the food and the amazing service!

We went for our date night here. From start to finish, everything was spot on – the food, the service, and the overall experience. The atmosphere really does feel as cosy as the name, and the staff were so warm and welcoming. Our server was fantastic, always making sure we were happy with everything. From starters to mains and drinks, it was all perfect. We’ll definitely be back!

We have come over for an evening meal after having take outs before from Cosy kitchen and the food only got better! We have decided to go with Polo Stroganoff and Polo Funghetto with Sautéed potatoes, and both meals were amazing albeit the Polo Funghetto tasted slightly better for us. We have also tried the cheesecake and it was really tasty and looked amazing too but there was a bit of ice on one side. It was still worth every penny. Staff was also really friendly and atmosphere was really nice in there. We also had a pizza and cheese chips with bacon for takeaway for tomorrow as both of those always taste nice even reheated.

wowwwww 🤤🤤🤤🤤 the food is absolutely quality!!! i got the paneer hanging kebab with the sweet potato wedges and it was absolutely 10/10. the lotus cheesecake is mega as well!! can’t wait to come back!

Always an amazing experience to dine in/ takeout at Harvey’s. Food is consistently amazing quality and fresh. The restaurant itself is nice to dine in both inside and out and is very clean. Will always choose to come back, my favourite place to dine in Huddersfield. Only slight negative would be that parking is limited making it harder for assess especially if you are blue badge owner.

I recently had lunch at Harvey's Bar & Restaurant and it was fantastic. The weather was gorgeous, so we sat outside, enjoying the pleasant atmosphere. The staff were attentive and friendly, making us feel very welcome. The food was delicious with plenty of options, and the drink selection was impressive. Overall, a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommended!

Wow! The best Steak I've had in a long time. Perfectly cooked just how I asked for. Very friendly staff. Fast service and amazing fresh food. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be back.

Top marks to the Royal & Ancient. Over on holiday from Australia my sister wanted to treat me to a high tea. It is not on the menu but the team at the pub pulled out all the stops and we had one of my tastiest high teas ever. Scotch Eggs, oh how I've missed you 😍 Highly recommended.

What a fantastic pub! The food arrived so quickly; it was beautifully presented, perfectly cooked and delicious. The gluten free fish and chips was the best I've ever had. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, including to our young baby. Will definitely be coming back.

We came for the first time Sunday for Sunday lunch. The food was incredible!! The nicest Sunday lunch I’ve had in a long time. Quick service & massive portions! Will definitely be returning!

I think this may be one of the best roasts I've had. The portions were very generous, with huge Yorkshire puds and my pork was done perfectly! I really like the special little touches on the plates too, like the crab apples and pigs in blankets. The service was great and very quick, and the pub had a lovely cosy feel too.
