Myself and my husband ate here for the first time last night and it was absolutely lovely. We had a 6pm booking and opted to go straight to our table, there’s plenty of room between tables, which is great as you can’t hear anyone else’s conversation and neither can yours be heard. There’s a lovely ambiance and a gorgeous sitting area outside which will be a great place to sit during the warmer months. The menu isn’t extensive but what’s on there is excellent. We both chose the Wagyu steak with sides of tenderstem broccoli and Charlotte potatoes and it was all so delicious, the steak comes medium rare and was perfectly cooked. We finished with a cheeseboard with 3 beautiful cheeses, good portions with figs, grapes and a quince jelly with plenty of crackers. We also had a cocktail each and enjoyed a delicious French sauvingnon Blanc. The service was excellent, it wasn’t a cheap meal but it was worth every penny and this place is very likely to be our special occasion ‘go to’ restaurant.

Consistently amazing food, service and always great atmosphere. We go here often enough to state that it is probably our favourite overall restaurant, even though we have been coming for years, the food is always consistent in quality. The menu doesn’t change much but it doesn’t matter because it’s so well done. The fillet steaks and halibut are up there as my favourites and occasionally lobster if it’s available. The service is as always impressive and professional but friendly .

I have never had a food experience like this! Myself and my wife dined here as a treat to celebrate our marriage and my birthday. From the moment we arrived the standard of the restuarant staff was different class.We first headed up the stairs to the cocktail bar while we awaited to be shown to our table .When we arrived to our table our bottle of wine and bread for the table was waiting for us. We both had 3 courses and the flavours of each dish was amazing! 5/5 stars!Impeccable service and impeccable food!

Superb!Nibbles followed by the best fillet steak I've had in years. Pity I was driving but the alcohol free G&T tasted like the real thing!

Westwood is located in a wing of the grand, old courthouse from the beginning of the 19th century, a 5-minute walk outside the North Bar gate to the medieval town centre, close to my hotel, from which I came on foot. In front of the main portico is a charming, Victorian pissoir, no doubt for the convenience of those nervous souls about to face the judge. You can't really see it at night, and daylight reveals that its entrance is blocked with rubbish. The restaurant wing is at the side of the main building with its own separate entrance beyond the car park, which had no lighting. The short walk from the street in pitch darkness could be extremely hazardous. Having just had foot surgery, I could easily have tripped and fallen--hopefully to be spotted on the ground in time by the headlights of the next car to arrive. I must admit that the food was very good, but the service aspect was deficient. I had ordered some bread (not cheap at £3.50) to have with a glass of wine while I waited in no hurry for the food to arrive. Four mini-baguettes and some farm-cultured butter were brought to me. But before I had the chance to enjoy just two mouthfuls, the starter course was dashed to the table, giving me the unwelcome feeling of being rushed. Also detracting from a relaxing evening was the ghastly music being piped through. This consisted largely of screeching women straining their voices--you simply do not need irritating vocals like this instead of quiet, background music. Again, I liked the food. The starter of whiskey & dark soy sauce smoked salmon was tasty, and my main course of pan-roasted loin of wild venison was excellent. But overall, I felt that, in comparison with the two other Michelin restaurants at which I dined in Beverley, Westwood did not quite deserve its Michelin commendation.

Proof that you can experience fine dining and not come away feeling hungry !!The quality of the food is a reflection of the passion for it that clearly exists in the kitchen of the Westwood.

Our whole visit from start to finish was impeccable.The service was second to none and exemplary and the food was out of this world amazing. The decor and ambience is just so relaxing and comfortable. The attention to detail is something we haven’t experienced at any other restaurant in the area or even county. It maybe isn’t somewhere you would go on a weekly basis because it is such a wonderful experience that I wouldn’t want to spoil the “treat” it feels like to go there but it is definitely our “go to” place now for anytime we want to treat ourselves or celebrate. The staff were all so friendly and very very professional. We watched a young lady laying out the table next to us for another set of guests and the precision with which she lined up the place mats, napkins, cutlery and glasses blew us away. It’s so nice to see that the staff care. We couldn’t fault a thing and would recommend the Westwood to anyone wanting to be fed and treat like a king or queen. Yes, it’s more expensive that you would usually pay for a mid week meal, but you don’t mind that at all when you’re paying for such good quality food and the wonderful service and experience that we all had whilst there.

On a first time visit to Beverley, a lovely vibrant town, we found this restaurant online. Great find. The ala carte menu looked tempting but so did the Luncheon table d'hote. 2 courses for approx £25. Delicious food, great relaxed service and a very comfortable restaurant. The food tasted and looked good. We will be back!

High-class restaurant with great food and friendly quality staff. Only slight niggle was it was somewhat noisy, but that is an issue with our fellow patrons. Good parking, very stylish decor.

Honestly never wanted to leave a 1 star. But that's what this deserves.I booked a table on the 29th July for the 9th of September. (Their May have been a mix up, this is me giving the receptionist an ounce of freedom to make a mistake) but regardless of the conversation I did make a booking and was also added to a cancellation list for earlier dates.I rang today to confirm the booking, after no booking was found I had the displeasure of speaking with the owner.The conversation left me feeling like I should definitely eat else where in the future, no talk of organising a different date, no apology despite repeatedly letting me know that they do occasionally make mistakes when booking a reservation.my partner held you on such a pedestal. No longer the case

Went to the Westwood Restaurant for my birthday lunch. The food was excellent and delicious. The staff were well presented, polite and attentive. A special thank you to Luke who gave fantastic service. Although pricey, I would recommend and come again.
