Wyke Lion

Story

Originally known as "The Old Red Lion", the inn used to be situated in a block of buildings near to the old Manor House in Lower Wyke. In 1822 however, the inn was moved to its present location to take advantage of passing trade on the newly built Huddersfield Road.
A country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character, our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

A good varied menu with several deals available throughout the day. Food served promptly and was very well presented. We enjoyed all our dishesFood: 5/5
Visited for the first time since it changed to Ego. Pleasantly surprised by the new look and quality of the meal. It made a change to go out for a meal that was full of flavour rather than a bland prepacked reheat meal. We got what we paid for, a quality meal. Prix Fixe menu is good value for money.
The Wyke Lion is fantastic! The food is absolutely amazing—perfectly cooked, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a great vibe that’s perfect for a meal out or a cozy evening with friends. I 100% recommend the Wyke Lion for anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.
Visited Ego on Friday for my Mum's birthday and had a lovely meal with attentive and friendly service from Ethan and the team as a whole. Large drinks selection with some good alcohol-free options and all the food we had was lovely. A nice atmosphere and they really looked after my Mum on her birthday, definitely recommend signing up to the mailing list as the offer she received made the overall bill great value! Thank you :
We have been to today for the two course Sunday Dinner, the meat was perfect and the veg was beautiful. I thought I was going to have to be rolled back to the car! We'll definitely back and will highly recommend to friends and family.Food: 5/5
I'm not one to complain and didn't want to put the service staff through it either, but stingy doesn't quite cut it. Dropped in tonight for a Sunday roast, £20.95 for 2 courses - on the steep side but not unreasonable considering the surroundings. On entry at 6:30 told there was no Yorkshire pudding left, but I could have extra roast potato. Fine. Decided to go for the trio of meat, at an extra £4, spoil myself. What arrived was incredible: 1 large potato worth of roasts, one carrot, 1 parsnip, a handful of green beans, and the smallest slices of beef, chicken and pork I've ever seen. Seriously doubt they would weigh even 50g worth of protein. This "meal" would have come to the price for the two courses if I didn't get the dessert, but honestly I was still hungry so asked for rhubarb crumble. Substantial serving but again the ice cream was a tiny scoop which was gone with over half the crumble remaining. Nice staff and nice enough food, but portioning was so disappointing I don't think I'll be returning.
Lovely surroundings good service very nice food hot Which is important to me Not expensive.. We had pre fix menu which is more than enough for me.. A starter and a main for 18.99 Good value the wine was 25 quid which is not to bad Definitely go again...and don't forget to join the free ego club And get all the offers sent to your phone ...a good find
We had a lovely meal at Ego on opening night. All the staff were friendly but as you would expect they were very busy and trying to learn the tables etc. The food was really good. We had two Kebabs which were delicious and the margarita pizza was apparently the best he’d eaten. The only let down were the halloumi fries which were cold and underwhelming. I’m sure they would have replaced them but on opening evening it didn’t seem necessary to add more work for them. We will definitely return. I would have given 4.5* if available although I do think there were two too many tables in the main dining area facing the roadside. With tables for 4 made to seat 6 which made things tighter for some tables and the wait staff.
Walking into the restaurant, everything looked good, nice atmosphere and the fire kept it lovely and warm. We were seated on a slope which felt right in the middle of everybody's walkway although I do sympathise with this on a needs must basis. Fish cake and king prawn starter were really nice but hummus was missing the dukka. Two out of three of the mains arrived, however we waited far too long for the third dish to arrive. I ordered the Moroccan lamb which originally came cold, this was rectified but the couscous can only resemble a bland lumpy porridge. Other main course was king prawn linguine which was in fact spaghetti, missing the rocket and tasted of nothing. We were booked in for 8pm and had been there roughly 50min or so when the place seemed to go quiet, can't help that but turning the fire off and cleaning tables around us, again sat right in the middle, made us feel rushed to leave. We ordered dessert anyway and this was probably my most baffling experience of the day. As you see from the photo attached, who in their right mind decided that serving Eton mess that looked like vomit in a martini glass was a good idea? Update: restaurant quick to reply to negative reviews as seen below but almost impossible to get a reasonable response from them. Would appear they comment just to counter the review but have no intention of looking into poor service
Called in yesterday Wednesday with a friend and was amazed to find special offer 2 dine for £30. We had 2 courses and food was very nice and normal size portions. The place is very clean and service was excellent Food: 5/5
