A great find. A lovely welcome & fab food with a brilliant choice of menu...Steak flatbread was the best I have ever had as was the triffle. Hubby had the ham hock broth ...hes hard to please but again he said it was delicious ...wish we had found it at the beginning of our holiday & not on the last day.

I’m rewriting my review from Saturday as my first one caused upset - something that was genuinely not intended - I do apologise, Wayne. Cookfellas has always been our favourite local eaterie - we have visited many times as a treat. We took friends there on Saturday to celebrate a birthday. Our main course was delicious - I loved the vegetarian version of the parmo. Our service was prompt and attentive. On this occasion the dessert menu was not to our taste, but these things are subjective. It’s great that you change your menu monthly - my husband loves your chocolate desserts and I would love to see the return of a passion fruit concoction that was to die for several years ago. Thank you to everyone for your hard work.

Fabulous three course dinner! Flavours were spot on, presentation was perfect, and the staff were SO attentive.

We visited here for a family birthday meal. The surroundings and staff were lovely, however the food was distinctly average and overpriced. How a restaurant can justify a £9 starter for five king prawns and some sourdough is beyond me. Two starters of the autumnal salad starter were £7.50 with two small slivers of pumpkin and onion, a miniscule crumb of feta, a scattering of lentils and salad leaves. The main courses ranged from £16.95 to £20.50. As it was a family members birthday I didn't voice my disappointment, as I didn't want to embarrass them. We will not be returning or recommending this restaurant.

Great atmosphere and service. We advised venue in advance that my wife was allergic to chillies in any form. Waitress checked with chef in advance what dishes she could eat and presented my wife with a hand written menu. Main and specials menu very varied and different from the usual selection that you see in major chains. Well recommended.

We absolutely love this local restaurant and haven't had a bad meal. From setting foot into the establishment, we are always greeted by friendly bar staff who are polite and helpful. Our meals are always fresh and despite the fact I choose the same vegetable strudel, my husband always tries something new. Tonight, for our Anniversary meal, he chose something from the specials board, some type of chicken meal, I chose my usual. My rose was lovely and he enjoyed his red wine. Also would like to point out that the girls in the restaurant are attentive and nothing is ever too much trouble. We highly recommend this place and feel as though we're guaranteed to be impressed.
Fabulous! Gluten free and dairy free friendly, with multiple options. Very wide menu, lots of options for all tastes and very attentive service.

Came here for a date night and we were not disappointed. The food choice and quality was excellent. Would recommend the tasting lamb. Inchs cider on draft and good cocktails. Excellent service as always.

We enjoyed two meals at Cookfella's during our Guisborough stay. Service is cheery and relaxed, which sums up the overall atmosphere. The menu has good variety, and the food is excellent. We ate from the specials, though there were plenty of tempting items on the main menu. One main was chicken rolled in thin ham with hits of fresh sage on olive mash, the other hake cooked in spices that reminded me of a trip to Morocco – both excellent. On a visit last year, I remember a way over-the-top chocolate dessert. This year it had mint ice cream and tuille, which didn’t work for me. I’d suggest replacing the mint with salted caramel ice cream and honeycomb twist, or coffee ice cream with a sprinkling of coffee beans, or chocolate ice cream and roasted cocoa beans. This is a smart venue with smart cooking.

Our first visit to Cookfellas Westgate location and we were were wowed just like the first time when we visited their first restaurant in Bow Street many years ago. A very varied menu with many dishes you would not usually find . Each of 4 of us had one of the 4 seasonal mains - Tasting of Lamb, North Sea Cod , Pork Loin and Red Mullet. They were not accompanied by the usual potatoes or chips and veg but something different and complimentary e.g. my mullet was accompanied by a very fine chorizo & pimento paella and Gambas pil pil. All freshly cooked and washed down with a very good Pinot Grigio. ( starters were great too) Prices for this sort of quality are very reasonable . Service was also excellent. The best meal we have had in a long time. Cookfellas does Guisborough proud .
