Our Lounge

Welcome to Vitello Lounge, your go-to spot in Ilkley for great food, laid-back lounging, and a little nod to local legend. ‘Vitello’ means calf in Italian, and with the famous Cow and Calf Rocks just up the hill (home to the Tour of Britain and Tour de Yorkshire races) we couldn’t resist the connection. Whether you’re here for a lazy brunch, a post-cycle refuel, or an evening wind-down, we’ve got you covered – all day, every day. So come on in, get comfy, and soak up the Vitello vibes.
