Halifax Restaurants

1885 Restaurant

The dining room at 1885 has to be one of the most civilised spaces in the area, a neighbourhood restaurant that reflects those it serves. A converted Victorian cottage it is as though it has never really lost its original purpose, offering a homely welcome and excellent food, with just enough sophistication to give reassurance.

El Gato Negro Tapas

Somehow, and I freely admit this may be illogical to some, a tapas bar does not seem quite right in deepest Yorkshire. So my object here is to demonstrate how wrong one can be! The idea of course is to have a series of small dishes brought together into a meal for you and your partner, or party, thus giving a whole range of flavours within an informal situation that encourages conversation in a relaxed atmosphere.
