Black Wheat Club
A micro-bakery by day that transforms into a seasonal bistro by night, named the Best Local Restaurant in Yorkshire by The Good Food Guide 2026.
Located at 52 Fossgate and run by Tomasz Mlynarski and Marta Obuchowska, this spot is a micro-bakery and modern bistro in one. By day, it serves homemade bread, pastries, coffee, and brunch; by night, it transitions into a seasonal sharing-plates bistro paired with wines, featuring Eastern European influences. The Good Food Guide named it the Best Local Restaurant in Yorkshire & the North East for 2026, ranking it 10th in the UK's Top 100 Local Restaurants. Brunch is walk-in only, while dinner reservations can be made on their website, with bar seats usually held for walk-ins. Prices are mid-range (££). Located within the old city, it is an easy walk to The Shambles.
