"Our first visit during the Ilkley Jazz Festival, Saturday night and Sunday lunch and we thought it a great place. Loved the decor inside and the well thought out outside space, (wonderful for a sunny day). Great service, the barmen were working like a train (loved the attire, white shirts and checked braces). We ate and our dishes were excellent and all else coming from the kitchen looked good too. The manager was totally on the ball, so good to see during this very busy period. Both the young set looking like they were really having a great time, and us older folk attending the jazz event shared the space on Saturday evening and the place was packed on Sunday. We'll definitely be back!"

Our very first visit yesterday, what a lovely place. The sandwiches we ordered hit the spot and the staff were super friendly and very accommodating with our 7 month old son and friends dog. Next time we visit Ilkley, we will be having lunch here

Our first visit was wonderful! This lovely restaurant is filled with young, energetic staff who are eager and friendly. The food is freshly cooked and definitely worth the price. Additionally, the wine is cheaper than average, offering great value for recognized brands.

I had the best Bratwurst and beef dinner ever! My partner ordered the pan-roasted lamb liver, which was just as delightful as my roast. We usually skip dessert, but we decided to indulge this time, and it did not disappoint! The staff was very friendly, making it a great place to dine.

The celebrations for Tour de Yorkshire yesterday were fabulous! We are so lucky to live in such a wonderful place like Ilkley, and very fortunate to have amazing local businesses like you and all the pop up food stalls, to come together and give us a brilliant event that we all thoroughly enjoyed! Well done to all the staff at The Black Hat for all working so hard and they still kept smiling! Looking forward to the next one �x

"Having passed this place many times, I called in for a meal last night. What a gem !. Ordered a pint of Taylors Best Mary Jane and others also available). Was shown to a table, and ordered to start 'Confit duck and peanut spring rolls with a plum chutney ' £6.95) followed by one of their fish specials form the blackboard 'Salmon and Sea Bass fillets with asparagus and bearnaise sauce ' one of the more expensive options at £16.95). Waitress came with bread, two nice thick pieces of rustic bread, one white one brown, and both butter and the olive oil /balsamic vinegar. Whe the spring rolls came , there were four, rather over the top, as for a starter two would have been sufficient, and with a pile of crisp salad and the plum dressing as well. Delicious, I had no problem eating all four. The fish main was also a delight, two small fillets each of sea bass and salmon, with a couple of asparagus spears, and some bearnaise sauce in a pot. A side dish of carrots and broccoli also presented. Thoroughly enjoyable. Bill £26.95. It was as I was paying that I realised that the Wheatley was also residential. Readers of my reviews will know I stay in the area two nights nearly every week Mainly at Chevin Country Park Hotel Otley, or Rombalds in Ilkley or occasionally Harrgate or Knaresborough, see my reviews of these hotels) However when I asked about room rates, £80 B B for a single to me is too much for what is essentially a pub. I pay £70 at the Chevin) I am sure the rooms will be clean and well appointed, but I would have expcted them to be maybe £60-65 for a single. I am awarding 5 stars for the meal, but I suspect that had I stayed there, maybe only 4 stars as a hotel because of the price. Within the last few weeks I now found and reviewed three pubs in the area with really good food., the other two being the The Black Horse at Askwith and the Fox at Menston. I now have a quandary which to go back to !"
