Elsworth Kitchen

Carmel Smickersgill, Tours & Activities Editor
Elsworth Kitchen

Elsworth kitchen is the culmination of years of experience and passions of Bruce and Rebecca Elsworth. They combine a homely, light and minimal aesthetic with seasonal local produce. It’s hearty and thoughtful food with a personal connection to the area. Each week you can look forward to a new menu with inventive dishes and flavours that move with the seasons.

Bruce Elsworth is a former Acorn award winner as well as former Great Yorkshire Cookery Competition finalist. He has worked with acclaimed chef Nigel Haworth at the Michelin-star restaurant, Rascasse in Leeds. His first Head Chef appointment was at the impressive age of 24. With someone who has worked their way up in the hospitality industry and flourished due to their creativity, it is no surprise that the food at Elsworth Kitchen takes local produce and reinvents it with a contemporary flair. Rebecca Elsworth brings years of managerial experience to the business and a background of design that makes the space such an enjoyable environment to eat in.
