Only downside was we had agreed to share the sandwichs!!! We also... More

Our eldest daughter who lives in Leeds has recently secured a great new job, which we wanted to celebrate properly. After finding The Bon on Trip Advisor we went through a straightforward booking process for a table for 6 (three generations of family), and drove over from Manchester on Thursday evening after work to dine at 8pm. We weren't disappointed.... More

It is lovely and cosy and the owner and his wife take the whole experience to another level by dressing in style. Although not in the nicest of places as both times we have been the... More

Thank you for your honest review. Our first reaction to your comments were disappointment, but reading again you actually compliment us in saying 'if you like that style of cooking then add another 2 stars and go'. Having said that we are disappointed you didn't enjoy The Bon Restaurant, we can't possibly cater for everyone's taste, but we do say... More
