Reviews in Ilkley

The food at Brooks is delicious. It is beautifully prepared, presented well and tastes really good. Each dish is distinctive and the flavours and textures work well. We ate from the fish and vegetarian menus. The hake was lovely and the vegetarian dishes were outstanding. We were not so sure about the ‘ambience’ of the restaurant. We were seated upstairs and the music was too loud making it difficult to hear each other talk. Also the lighting was too bright which made it hard to feel we had an intimate space to talk and relax. We were also really conscious of people moving around and passing our table the whole time. I think the ambience needs to be improved. Service was good.

WOW, what a taste sensation with attentive service. A very warm and comfortable dining experience

Great food, atmosphere, service and value for money. We love this place and would recommend to anyone who likes something different, excellent variety of dishes and hood portion size even though they are small plates Amazing service too especially as they returned my scarf to me which I had left in October! Thank you

What a SUPERB evening. Not only was the food delicious, the wine was tasty and Sudu and Phil are wonderful hosts. A great night had by all. xx

Excellent food, service, spacious, and enjoyed the discreet but uplifting music.

Our first visit as a birthday treat. Great food, service was terrific and the restaurant really nicely fitted out. There was plenty of space on our table for the four of us (we were on the 1st floor) and all our dishes. We had 9 or 10 dishes between us and the desserts were amazing. We'll be back soon!

Second visit in the last 3 months that we've visited Brookes Tapas to have a meal there. Both times have been superb. Staff are courteous and provide a very friendly welcome when you enter the Restaurant. Service is first class with the staff very attentive to all your requests and nothing is too much trouble. The dishes that we had were delicious and extremely tasty. Certainly go back again

Interesting tapas menu, loved the aubergine and green beans with cashew nut dishes. All very tasty, good service and great to be able to bring the dog. Rather expensive, I would definitely go more frequently if it was say 10%cheaper or there were fixed price menu options.

Our first visit and we will definitely return. The food was delicious.

Lovely meal. Intense and fragrant flavours in the main dishes but levels of spice could be varied as everything was cooked to order. We appreciated the chef talking us through the ingredients in the dishes so that we could select appropriate dishes for a specific set of dietary requirements. Great atmosphere, great food at sensible prices and fab service. A relaxed and most enjoyable evening. We will be back.

Another superb meal, introducing a friend to your culinery delights. Thank you

Our first visit and won't be our last. Great service., lovely atmosphere and fantastic food! All round perfect evening!

Brilliant food, lovely staff, good value

Excellent food - flavours were intense and portions were spot on. This restaurant is a true gem centrally located in Ilkley that delivers for all occasions. Service was attentive too - a very pleasant evening. Thank you.

A lovely friendly tapas restaurant with really flavoursome tasty food that we like

A lovely dining experience with a great choice of dishes- we will be back

Fabulous NYE meal. Great atmosphere, really helpful but not obtrusive staff. Food as always was all totally scrumptious! Both wine and food are priced fairly. The addition of the very genuine end of evening check back, to ensure everything had been as we hoped it would be, was welcomed.

Great friendly service and very tasty interesting menu
