In the heart of Pontefract, Cavallo is our family-run ode to modern Italian cooking and Yorkshire hospitality, relaxed and refined, built around good ingredients and generous service.

​

Step inside to a warm, design-led dining room and an easygoing bar that hums from aperitivo to last orders. Start with a spritz or a classic Negroni, then settle in.

This is the kind of place where lunch lingers and dinner turns into one more.

​

In the kitchen, our chefs cook seasonal, Italian-inspired plates: beef carpaccio and hand-chopped beef tartare, osso buco with saffron risotto, and pastas like ravioli alla cacciatora or radiatori alla vodka with crab and clams. Simple ideas, done properly, with produce we are proud to serve.

​

For the finale, there is always room for dolci: tiramisù, affogato, and a few specials from the pastry pass, plus a digestivo to see you off.
