Reviews in Keighley

Dined here for my husbands 60th birthday. asked for a good table and was seated about a foot away from another couple even though no-one else in. Couldn't have a private conversation. The meal was very, very disappointing. Very bland. Mine was duck with lots of fat and hardly any duck and was sat in a jus which tasted strangely of fish. That was the only taste in the whole dish. Chef seemed to have forgot to season anything. Pianist didn't start til 7.45 just as we finished our meal. Not recommended. 4/4/09.

We went for a special birthday meal mid week and it lived up to all our expectations. We had walked past Embers many a time and have always wanted to go, so a birthday was a good excuse to pay that 'little bit more'. It was worth every penny though and I have to say the porcini mushroom soup is the best soup I have ever had in my life. I recommend sitting on the terrace for the ambience - you can't beat it. Even with a pre-sinner drink, a shared bottle of wine, dessert wines and three course meals, the bill was less than I expected - which was a bonus!

Excellent food, excellent staff and excellent wine!! Its perfect and the complimentary pizza bread, saute potatoes and free shot with every meal, makes it that little more special. Everything is home cooked as you can see that from the open plan kitchen. The staff are really friendly and makes the whole experience enjoyable. Oh and did I mention the choice of food! wow so much to choose from!!! I had my 30th party there at the beginning of the month and I knew that all my friends and family would enjoy it and they did, so it made my evening very special indeed. Thanks Stefano and all the staff.

Excellent food and service, my favourite Italian restaurant.

Fantastic place amazing food!its definitely worth visiting and i promise you, you won't be disappointed.both the restaurant and the pub have such a character!and the food well it speaks for its self,check out the menu before and when you get there see the specials which are varying from salivating rabbit or partridge to amazing veggie pies!i couldn't decide what i enjoyed the most cos everything was truly yummy!Great value too!the photo that i found doesn't make it any justice at all, its very romantic but also great for a group of friends that enjoy good honest food!

been to this ristorante twice now and both times the food and service was excellent, just a little chilly in parts of the restaurant . But overall a very good place to dine.

Lovely new restaurant - went for the first time last Saturday and the food and service was amazing. Good luck to the new owners and thanks for a fab night.

We went to Haworth for or silver wedding and came upon the Embers, what a lovely surprise it was a beautiful contemporary restaurant very relaxing and we had a lovely meal, on the terrace which is glassed in and has heaters. We never expected to find something like this in Haworth, would highly recommend it !

Fantastic restaurant. The food is really very very good. Great staff who seem to really care about the quality of the food and experience and even remembered our names the next day when we passed them in the town.

Paid a visit to the Embers restaurant on Sat 30th August.... really disappointed...very poor service and overpriced average food, loads of fish on the menu which my wife is allergic too coupled with a special Saturday menu limited the selection to no starters and 3 mains. We will not be returning and not recommending this restaurant to anyone..... regards

A great location with a lovely atmosphere, Child friendly and cosy. The food is the best, top notch pub grub with a few delicious wild cards.

i use it frequently, it's the best in keighley. staff the most friendly you can find in any catering trade. a credit to indian food trade.

I went on friends' recommendation. Astonishing. It's a tightly packed little place with an unprepossessing frontage and a door opening OUT, but with the fabulous food on offer all minor quibbles are forgotten. The service is outstanding - "la padrona" recites all the specials for you in case the menu isn't sufficiently appealing, we had complimentary pizza with our starters, saute potatoes with our main course, and a free shot of liqueur. The food itself was freshly cooked, and you can see the kitchen staff tolling away in an area smaller than my kitchen at home. And the dishes were of a uniformly excellent, no really REALLY excellent standard - tasty, hot, plentiful and genuinely Italian. I cannot recommend the place too highly. I've been twice in one week. And I'll hope to go again soon.

Best Curry house in the world, No lies and I have been to allot!

An absolute gem of a restaurant. We have been many times and always enjoyed both the meals and atmosphere. The staff are warm and friendly, service is quick. They are also quite willing to change dishes to suit your tastes.

Me and my husband went to Chaplin's on a Sunday evening was a very interesting place, different but in a good way. The service is good and friendly and the food was beautiful, and definitely homemade. The only problem a had that evening was the noise from the kitchen which was sadly too close to my table, the chefs must have anger issues as we could hear the shouting from the kitchen too clearly, it made us feel very uncomfortable. We will although return as other than that it was a joyful evening.

This pub is now under new ownership (January 2007) and with it comes a new chef and a more upmarket menu. The food was well prepared and presented. There was five kinds of vegetables and all perfectly cooked ie neither over- nor under-done. Phew! I had the chicken in tarragon sauce and found the chicken succulent, plentiful and the sauce just right. The chef has a good understanding of roast potatoes! My partner had the lamb which was tasty and tender in good gravy with fine mash. We didn't have any puddings but the people on the next table were very happy with their Yorkshire Parkin and Custard and Apple Crumble and Cream. It's a great relief to us to have a restaurant in the village which cares about the food. Service was attentive and we enjoyed the mulled wine. While we didn't have any "real" wine on this occasion, the overall impression inspired confidence so I'd guess care has gone into the selection of wines too. The main courses were between £8 - £13 but mainly eight or nine pounds and we felt the meal was very good value for money. They also offer light lunches.

Great food, let down by average standard of service.
