Lovely food and evening last night, its always a great place to meet up with friends, wonderful staff who looked after us all too,Thank you x
First visit, only called for a drink but we will be back to sample the food menu. I had a cocktail � and loved it.
Very busy place, people in and out all the time.
I think Bistro 42 is brilliant. I have problem eating and no matter what I ask for it has always been done for me. Excellent service and the food is full of flavour. Keep it up. The menu is excellent. Thank you, I'll be calling again soon with my friends. I recommend your restaurant to anybody who asks

One of the best experiences I have had in a long time .What a gem this place is its cozy the staff are extremely well coming friendly and helpful .
The food was exceptional very well presented and delicious
The reasonably priced cocktails were lovely too
I will return very soon
Drinks, service and most importantly food are exceptional.
Beers and ales on draft are fantastic, cocktail menu is fleshed out and caters to anyone taking a seat
Food rivals that of the top places in Leeds, apart from prices which are very reasonable. Presentation and considered components on the plate really show how much they care about what goes into their menu, strongly recommended this establishment as its leagues above anywhere else in the local area of Ossett.

I went here in a group of 5. The food was sensational. I had the Swordfish starter which was absolutely beautiful! Cooked to perfection. I continued with fish to the main course and enjoyed a lovely pub classic of fish and chunky chips, what a delight that was! I adored the chips.
The staff at the bistro provided exceptional service, displaying genuine warmth and attentiveness throughout our visit. Their friendly demeanor and prompt assistance added a delightful touch to the overall dining experience
The bistro had a charming atmosphere, with soft ambient lighting and cozy decor that invited a sense of warmth.
The menu, overall is slightly on the pricey side, however as they offer a set menu on certain nights we were able to take full advantage of this. Having 2 beautifully cooked courses for £17.95. Which in my eyes, was an absolute bargain for the quality of the food and service.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend the bistro for its outstanding combination of a charming atmosphere, impeccable service, and, above all, the exceptional cuisine.
The Carpenters Arms is a hidden gem in Ossett. While its unassuming exterior might not catch your eye, the interior is where the magic happens. The service is exceptional, and the food is undeniably tasty. Don't judge this book by its cover; step inside and experience it for yourself!

What a Christmas dinner! First year in a long time we decided to treat ourselves to a Christmas day off. Five of us headed to The Carpenter's Arms aka Bar 42 and settled into some cocktails while we waited for our table.
Half an hour later we headed upstairs and sat down to a beautifully laid table with tasty little appetizers. Then along came the soup and starters brought to us by super friendly and polite staff. By this point we were wondering if it could get any better. A small wait and all five plates turned up together piping hot, which in itself was a testament to the service.
The food was second to none, out of place in a tiny little town, we were wondering how high end restaurant food ended up on our plates. It tasted so much better than it looked and we were all struggling to finish it, but we tried. Finally an amazing dessert turned up and we had to be rolled out of the door we were that full.
The staff throughout we're beyond professional, polite, friendly and attentive. Will our waiter kept the drinks coming, recommended some good cocktails and made sure we wanted nothing.
Next year, definitely more of the same please! We can't wait to go back.
Really gone downhill over the years. Food used to be decent but today was the final straw. Wife ordered a club sandwich and this was it. They did bring her another but that's not the point, shouldn't have to complain, should be right in the first place. Chef should be ashamed. Had better sandwiches out of a clear plastic box from a garage
Update on my original review 7th May 23. Heard good things again about 42 so decided to give it another go for Sunday dinner. Well it was superb. Food was great and really good value for money especially in the current climate. Got the Sunday dinner with a starter for £17.95 and was really impressed. Nachos for starter, yes I know not your usual starter for a Sunday roast but they were spot on and a decent portion. Sunday roast was also really good. Highly recommended. 1 star previously now giving it 5. 👍🏼
Excellent experience, welcome people, excellent fresh food made with a lot of passion and effort.
Great place.
Thank you to all.
Great spot for some drinks inside or out, but would recommend trying the menu at least once. The food is a good balance of traditional and modern.
Arrived Sunday afternoon without booking accommodated us were very attentive,had Sunday lunch was beautiful nice stuffing.Also ordered the sharing platter was plentiful and really nice.very nice cocktail and good menu.The toilets were very nice and clean.daughter had the sundae was delish! 😁
It was our first ever visit to this restaurant and I’ve seen some negative reviews on here, but let me tell you honestly it was without fault, the food was delicious and the service as excellent! We’ll have no qualms about dining here again, well done!
Very nice Sunday dinner. Yorkshires were a little dry for our tastes but everything else was very nice. Attentive and polite staff. Very nice decor and atmosphere. We shall definitely return at some point soon
Enjoyed the food, The chicken burger was spot on, it didn't fall apart while eating it. Plenty to dig into. The chips/wedges were huge and great to dip.
However the Menu is limited in comparison how it used to be and there is no free starter through the week like it used to be. Also the prices are more towards the expensive side of the spectrum.
Service was decent couldn't complain, It was clean inside.
I would advise checking the menu before going in if possible though as there really wasn't much choice
Food is amazing.
Extremely accommodating for any dietary requirements as everything is fresh, locally sourced products. Wife is gluten free and pretty much everything on menu is fine for her due to been freshly prepared.
Reasonably priced.
Excellent, friendly service.
Thank you
Very lovely staff who provided quick and friendly service. The food was also very tasty however I'd recommend that you order from the main menu rather than the set one as although it's cheaper, the portions aren't as generous. My friend ordered chicken skewers and chunky chips which she Very much enjoyed so I don't doubt the quality of the food. Very quirky and creative decor of the place and the atmosphere was very pleasant too. Thank you to the carpenters arms we will be back 😁
Beautiful sharing platter and some fabulous cocktails. Had a very enjoyable afternoon here.
Gluten free! Amazing from start to finish. Waiter knew what he was talking about, even got me gluten free cheesecake for today when I visited for the 3rd time since the new chef took over. Fresh food cooked on the day! Made tonorder and can cater anything gluten free except pasta!
Food was amazing and felt well catered for. Nothing was a problem especially my gluten intolerance.
So hope they start doing taster menus that would be awesome!
