Kendells Bistro is a casual Informal place to dine with the main focus on quality of food, wine and service within a French bistro atmosphere. It’s relaxed and informal - no waiters topping up wine glasses after every sip or sneaking up behind you with a six foot pepper mill. Cloth napkins but not starched, blackboard menus and open plan kitchen, intimate cosy candles flickering, friendly without pretence.

Bookings of 5 or more will need to contact the restaurant directly, either by emailing info@kendellsbistro.co.uk or calling us on 0113 2436553.

I’ve been lots of times. Always lovely. Extensive menu. How ever the portions are too big - no room for dessert! I love the moody lighting but I could barely see my food - I like to use all my senses when dining. The temperature of the restaurant could also always be a degree or two lower. However I shall be back wearing super lightweight clothes, not having eaten all day & I may have to use my phone torch more than usual!

A fantastic French restaurant with amazing food and very attentive staff good for gluten-free options. The drink surprised very reasonably for a restaurant but some of the food is on the expensive side but that won’t stop me going again and would thoroughly recommend anyone else.

The candle lit atmosphere was cosey, but made it very hard to read the menu - needed the torches from our phones to read it. Staff were friendly. We had the set menu. Overall the food was nice, but not amazing, and we would have welcomed some vegetables with our main courses. We had to pay a supplement for the steak but it was tasty. The pork was soft but quite fatty and bland. There was a lot of salt used in every dish -we needed to drink a lot of water with our food. Overall pleasant but not amazing.
