Vitello Lounge is a vibrant café bar with a green and red exterior, large windows, and outdoor seating on the paved sidewalk—perfect for watching the world go by.

People are dining and conversing in a warmly lit, cozy restaurant with patterned wallpaper, walls adorned with framed paintings and mirrors, and tables featuring dishes like vitello. The atmosphere appears lively and social.

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.
