Bennett's Cafe & Bistro - York

The bistro hasn't been open in the evening since November which I did make open table aware of as they kept asking me to confirm my booking

We booked for an 80th birthday dinner and we were not disappointed. We were very well looked after (especially the birthday girl who was given complementary fizz) and the food was wonderful. I liked the small but varied menu which suited all tastes. The food was beautifully cooked and served. The view is amazing and the prices very reasonable. I would certainly go there again when I am visiting York.

Amazing food and attentive, quiet staff. The meal was superb and the reasonably-priced wine paired perfectly with it.

Went Saturday night after reading different reviews. Warm welcome and nice table by the window to watch variety of comings and going’s typical of a weekend In York. Good wine , nice starters . Main course of salmon was good on bed of crushed new potatoes, Steak and sauce good but why oh why serve soggy chips soaked in oil not rocket science to get oil temperature hot enough. In fairness replacements were given when we pointed it out being typically British we said they were better but weren’t really. Vegetables nicely cooked but quantity was more for one than two. Pudding was fine in fact wife said Home made rice pudding was outstanding

A wide range of choices on the menu, excellent wine list, the food was sublime, service was prompt but not intrusive. An extremely enjoyable meal in lovely, central York surroundings near the Minster.
