Address: 4-6 Town St, Horsforth, Leeds LS18 4RJ, United Kingdom

If you're in search of an exceptional dining experience in Leeds, Bavette on Town Street in Horsforth is a standout destination. The Bavette menu is a masterclass in modern European bistro fare with a French twist, offering a curated selection of dishes that highlight both finesse and flavor.

As a food enthusiast and long-time diner in the Leeds area, I was thoroughly impressed by Bavette's approach to menu design. It demonstrates a deep understanding of seasonal produce, locally sourced ingredients, and a refined sense of balance. During my recent visit, I opted for their signature bavette steak, cooked to a perfect medium-rare-tender, juicy, and paired beautifully with hand-cut frites and a vibrant peppercorn sauce. A companion dish, the duck leg confit, was equally compelling: crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth inside, served atop a bed of puy lentils with a rich jus.

What sets the Bavette menu apart is its simplicity elevated by thoughtful execution. Starters like the goat cheese tart and mains such as the sea bass fillet exhibit creativity without pretension. Desserts like the dark chocolate fondant and crème brûlée round out the meal with sophistication.

Beyond the food, the intimate, candlelit setting and attentive service create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Prices are reasonable given the quality, with most mains ranging from £16-£25. While seating is limited, this adds to the exclusive bistro charm-booking ahead is recommended.

In comparison to other local restaurants, Bavette excels in delivering consistency, seasonal rotation, and expertly prepared classics. Whether you're a local or a visitor seeking a memorable meal, the Bavette menu is a must-try.

⭐️ Rating: 4.8/5 - Best for romantic dinners, date nights, or foodies exploring refined bistro cuisine.
