Hern never disappoints. Once again I ran out of superlatives each time the plates were cleared. Was there twice in 8 days and I couldn’t fault a thing. Even the non-alcohol options are home made and delicious. Didn’t miss wine at all, they were so good and dessert was divine.
Hern is everything a neighbourhood bistro should be: - great but unfussy service - tasty food cooked incredibly well - a short menu that makes sense and prioritises seasonal produce - good wine
This was a great find! We enjoyed the vegetarian tasting menu and were sufficiently full. The main (pictured) tasted slightly undercooked, and the restaurant was rather warm, but the service more than made up for this and did not detract from our evening. Would return!
This was my first visit to Hern, which I was surprised to discover had been going for around six years. How have I missed it? I went with friends and had the small menu of four courses for £45 per person. Wine flight was optional as was a cheese course. The food was delicious and unusual in its ingredients, with us asking our waiter what it was we had eaten. "Pangrattato" been one such element. The dessert got a comment from my friend of "this is a showstopper." This was strawberry ice cream with strawberries and fig leaf granita. The ice cream being homemade. The whole meal was light and I left feeling happy, satisfied and not uncomfortably full. It was a really nice evening with good food. It is, however, not a cheap night once you add drinks and a gratuitie. Well worth it in my humble opinion.
Incredible food- menu changes more or less every week and there’s a set menu that can be adapted for allergies/requirements. Really small place with great service and a good range of natural wines. 100% recommend!
Great service, great good, amazing fine dining experience for a very Yorkshire price! I will definitely go back!

Wonderful food, plates of tasty things! Lovely intimate atmosphere in a cosy setting, informative and friendly staff - what's not to like?
Great set menu, delicious food, good service, and not bad value compared to other set menus in the city. Natural organic wines really interesting...though I think they should break with the ideology and have some more accessible bottles/wines by the glass.
Tremendous meal....every element was delicious. Charming waiting staff. Customers all well-spaced so it felt safe.
