Wildwood Restaurant
Situated on Low Petergate, there is plenty of competition in the vicinity. Next door to Wildwood there is a well known pizza and pasta chain. They must think that Wildwood are a threat to them as they were handing out pieces of pizza to the people passing by.

Inside Wildwood
The music playing is low so you can have a conversation and they seem to know their audience, think Stevie Wonder, The Four Tops and Toploader and you will get an idea of who their target audience is.
The front door is automatic and closes itself slowly.Ths is ok for the warmer months but in winter you might feel like getting up from your seat and closing it quickly, if you are sat near the front of the restaurant.

Our shared starter of a sharing platter consisted of barbecue ribs, breaded Brie, tomato & pesto bread, bell peppers, caramelised onion and garlic mayonnaise dips. Well presented and tasted as good as it looked.

My partner's Cobb salad consisted of oven roast chicken, fresh sweet corn, tortilla chips, cheddar cheese, avocado, bacon and Caesar dressing. The salad was fresh, the chicken described as "beautiful" and there was plenty of sweet corn and bacon. To see the dish empty was proof that it had been a good meal.
My Banoffee sundae was rich in bananas, plenty of vanilla ice cream along with fresh cream and digestive biscuits. It would be worth just visiting for the desserts! My partner's Eton mess sundae was equally packed with berries and ice cream.

If I had a choice between Wildwood and their competitor next door, I would choose Wildwood as the food and service is far superior.
