About the restaurant

A haze of aromatic wood smoke greets diners long before plates arrive, setting the tone for Ox Club’s focused devotion to live-fire cooking. In this urban enclave on The Headrow, grilling is not a technique tucked away in the kitchen’s backrooms—it is the restaurant’s raison d’être, dictating both spirit and menu. The elemental theatre of flames and glowing embers gives every meal a sense of anticipation, where the raw energy of fire is carefully channelled into deep, layered flavours. Every cut arriving tableside speaks to a clear respect for ingredients, underscored by the kitchen’s refusal to overcomplicate. The discipline here is restraint; thick, marbled steaks glisten with char, smoky ribs emerge lacquered in their natural juices, and each dish signals the team’s unwavering attention to sourcing and preparation. Sauces and seasonings are used with precision, allowing the primary character of each protein to remain centre stage, merely enhanced by smoke and a considered hand at the grill. The setting itself forgoes ornate dramatics in favour of industrial-rustic clarity, an atmosphere that mirrors the food’s honest approach. There are no distracting flourishes—just the warm glow of the open fire and a backdrop that draws attention to the grill’s artistry. Smoke lingers softly in the air, each waft hinting at what is to come. Ox Club eschews fleeting trendiness, maintaining a singular focus that sets it apart within West Yorkshire's ever-evolving dining scene. The approach is not flash, but rather cumulative: careful execution, day after day, has secured the restaurant both loyal followers and the distinction of a mention in the Michelin Guide. This recognition is not about grandstanding but about steadfast adherence to craft and an elemental philosophy—heat, time, and patience reveal the true nature of great meat. There’s an understated confidence in this address—a place for those drawn to the primal pleasures of fire, seeking the crackle of char and the subtle perfume of wood smoke threaded through each bite. At Ox Club, grilling is elevated to its most considered form, offering a grounded, unembellished experience that quietly endures amidst the noise of culinary innovation.
