I visited this restaurant with some friends before going for a walk across the moor. The views were stunning, the staff was lovely, and the pint was great.

I had high expectations for this restaurant based on word-of-mouth reviews, but I was ultimately disappointed. The food was average and the service was terrible. It had a generic chain pub vibe.

"beautiful taste and presentation of eating. exactly what they want from a restaurant, they go the extra mile and turn them a measure of details they do not in the rule when they cook at home. I have booked my reservation for the following day inadvertently, but the staff was very accommodating and let me sit in my preferred location until the next reservation."

"Ate at Sachis for the first time last night, we were really impressed. Food was so fresh and well spiced, just delicious. None of the generic fatty and salty dishes that you sometimes get in curry restaurants. Service friendly and prompt. There also was clear labels on the menu for food allergies which makes life easier. Pleaed there's such a good Indian restaurant in Ilkley. Will return as soon as we can!! Meal type: Dinner"

"brian t. I ate in the box tree a few years ago when they offer a meal at a special price through a timeline offer. I never forget the table setting. on the table was the usual salt and pepper, but around them were half a dozen red skinned raw potatoes! when I commented on the waiter, he said they won a price for the best table setting. it has taken me completely from my meal, especially when the box tree management had operated by kildwick grange. everyone who demanded the cost for a meal was always told that if they had to ask the price, they could not afford to eat there! then it was very good to eat. on the day I visited ilkley, it was pub food....read more"

"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 !"
