Salts Mill

Restaurante | Shipley | Inglaterra | Reino Unido

"Salts Mill" en Shipley, Inglaterra, Reino Unido, es mucho más que un restaurante: es una experiencia culinaria y cultural, ubicada en un impresionante edificio histórico que forma parte del Patrimonio de la Humanidad de la UNESCO, Saltaire. La antigua fábrica textil, construida en 1853 por Sir Titus Salt, fue revitalizada en la década de 1980 por Jonathan Silver y hoy alberga una mezcla de galerías de arte, tiendas y opciones gastronómicas. Dentro de este complejo, "Salts Diner" es un punto de encuentro central para los visitantes que desean disfrutar de una comida después de un paseo por las amplias exposiciones o un día de compras. El restaurante es una parte integral de la experiencia de Salts Mill y atrae tanto a lugareños como a turistas que aprecian la combinación de historia, arte y buena comida.

La atmósfera en "Salts Diner" es relajada y acogedora, con un encanto industrial que refleja el pasado del edificio. Techos altos, paredes de ladrillo expuestas y grandes ventanales crean un ambiente abierto y aireado que, sin embargo, resulta acogedor. La decoración es sencilla pero funcional, con mesas y sillas de madera que ofrecen espacio para familias, parejas o grupos más grandes. La cercanía a las galerías que exhiben obras de David Hockney y otros artistas le da al restaurante un toque especial: muchos huéspedes disfrutan relajarse aquí después de un recorrido cultural. En días concurridos, el ambiente puede ser animado, lo que subraya la popularidad del lugar, pero la generosa disposición del espacio asegura que rara vez se vea abarrotado.

En términos culinarios, "Salts Diner" se enfoca en la cocina británica clásica con un énfasis en ingredientes frescos y de temporada. Un plato destacado es el "Traditional Fish and Chips", que presenta pescado fresco en una crujiente reboza con gruesas papas fritas doradas: un plato que celebra la cultura gastronómica británica y se acompaña de salsa tártara casera. Igualmente popular es el "Roast Dinner", que impresiona con carne jugosa, esponjosos puddings de Yorkshire y una rica salsa, especialmente los fines de semana cuando aumenta la demanda de este clásico. Para una opción más ligera, el "Avocado on Sourdough" ofrece una alternativa fresca, destacando por su aguacate cremoso y pan de masa madre crujiente. Los postres son otro punto culminante, y el "Chocolate Brownie" destaca: servido caliente, con un rico sabor a chocolate y a menudo acompañado de una bola de helado de vainilla, es un favorito entre los huéspedes. Además, hay una selección de pasteles y scones caseros que se hornean frescos a diario y son perfectos para acompañar una taza de té.

La oferta de bebidas es variada e incluye opciones tanto tradicionales como modernas. El café, recién preparado y de tostadores locales, es una obligación para muchos visitantes, mientras que la selección de tés refleja la cultura del té británica. Para aquellos que buscan algo más sustancioso, hay cervezas locales de barril que complementan perfectamente los platos. También hay bebidas sin alcohol como limonadas afrutadas, que ofrecen una refrescante alternativa. El restaurante se esfuerza por colaborar con proveedores locales, lo que resalta la calidad y frescura de los ingredientes y le da al lugar un toque sostenible.

La historia de "Salts Mill" está íntimamente ligada a Sir Titus Salt, un industrial y filántropo que creó la fábrica y la ciudad modelo de Saltaire para ofrecer mejores condiciones de vida a sus trabajadores. Tras el declive de la producción textil en la década de 1980, el edificio fue adquirido por Jonathan Silver, quien lo transformó en un centro cultural, donde las instalaciones gastronómicas como "Salts Diner" juegan un papel central. El restaurante se enorgullece de ser parte de este legado y refleja la visión de crear un lugar que combine comunidad y disfrute. Además de "Salts Diner", hay también el "Café in the Opera", otra opción culinaria en el complejo que ofrece comidas ligeras y aperitivos, pero el Diner sigue siendo el protagonista para una comida completa.

El personal es conocido por su amabilidad y eficiencia, con un servicio que a menudo se realiza con una sonrisa y una disposición servicial. En días especialmente ocupados, como durante las vacaciones escolares o en grandes exposiciones, puede llenarse, pero el equipo se asegura de que el servicio se mantenga fluido. "Salts Diner" en "Salts Mill" es más que un restaurante: es un lugar que conecta el pasado industrial con el disfrute moderno e invita a los visitantes a sumergirse en la historia y cultura de Saltaire. Ya sea para un abundante almuerzo después de un recorrido por las galerías o una tarde relajada con café y pastel, este local ofrece una experiencia que satisface tanto el paladar como el alma.

My son told us that he'd visited this spot and highly recommended it, so we gave it a try. It's was a real busy place when we visited on a Saturday, but because it's so large inside it wasn't cramped at all. There are a few different floors that include a furniture and interiors section, a gallery, a bookshop, an antique shop, and a couple of places to eat. The queue for the main cafe was vast, so we went to a smaller tea and cake spot instead. The bookshop and gallery were amazing, and there's an exhibition which goes into the history of the buildings and surrounding area - this was really interesting. Overall, it's a great spot to visit, but once you're in you may stay far longer than you anticipated.

Amazing place and free. It's like a market and museum at the same time. The stuff inside is very expensive but its nice to look around.

We spent many hours in Salts Mill, we loved the exhibition, cafe and shops. We came from London for a week in Saltaire. Fantastic, already booked to come again next year.

What an amazing example of preserved history and FREE entry too! Plenty of on-site parking, although I opted to go by train this time. Variety of art, books, artist materials, greetings cards, postcards and local history guides plus a café upstairs.

We had a fabulous afternoon visiting Salts Mill! We heard that David Hockney had a flowers in print exhibition and couldn’t wait to take a look. We had visited the Media museum earlier in the day, so saw some of his artistic talents through his 4 seasons videos filmed through 9 cameras. The mill had 3 floors of interesting arts, plenty of areas to eat and drink and a wonderful book store! There’s plenty of David Hockney related things to peruse/buy! We also watched a video of the history of Salts Mill which was fascinating!

Cafe and Galleries were good, good food and service, clean too. Architecture interesting Huge disappointment that the antiques centre had closed half an hour early as this was the main reason for our visit. We live a fair distance away and do not come to this area often. Perhaps management ought to keep an eye on their concessions??

Fantastic bit of local history. One of the very best Yorkshire Mills and mostly intact as it was when Titus built it. Art gallery while not for everyone is still Interesting and you have to appreciate the work that goes into a painting etc 2nd floor houses a book shop with pretty much any type of genre you can think of. The Home has some stunning pieces of furniture and anything and everything for your kitchen and or dining room. And the cafe and its food is just amazing. Clean, friendly and helpful staff and delicious food with a good selection of drinks. Recommended day out

Cafe food not value for money, poor quality of food and poorly cooked. The mill was pretentious with no history of the building evident. Totally wasted day out.

Superbe endroit qui propose des expositions gratuites de David Hockney, boutiques et cafés. Le village de Saltaire est par ailleurs sublime et vaut la visite.

Awful staff, rude, especially in the 1853 gallery. People of colour are monitored like a hawk. This use to be a nice place to visit, but the staff attitude spoils it.

Great place, the art on show is excellent, as is everything else in the building, and what a building.

We parked on Caroline Street for £1.50 per hour (able to extend on RingGo app). Queue for food was quite long but we got in early at 11:30 which seemed to beat the queue. Pizzas were amazing! There is another cafe on level 3 if you want to skip the long queue. Exhibits were nice and the activities in the Peace Museum upstairs were great. Only suggestion to management is have some signage for prams/wheelchairs. Accessibility at the two entrances/exits we saw were none existent.

It’s always good to take a friend from other areas to visit places you enjoy and find they like them too. Salts mill and Saltaire is such an unusual place combining history via art ( through Hockney) and industrial skills - the mill itself and the town of Saltaire. The town has a character modern towns usually lack and the mill shows industrial heritage where money talked and could be good for the workers. Pity more entrepreneurs don’t build new towns around their dream developments!! We enjoyed the art, the spaces within the mill (which is huge) including the cafe and book shops. We saw some video footage of how the mill started but didn’t see it all. Think we should return to learn more. Cafe - we had to wait a while but it was ok and the lunch was fine-tasty and reasonable. Take time, don’t rush and think about the original workers but also the dedication of Jonathan Silver who so valued this place and ensured it became a valued place in industrial history.

Beautiful place to learn about Saltaire’s incredible history and the transformation of this once busy industrial place. Great bookstore and eatery.

A fabulous place to visit; the building is home to art, food, craft, history and more. Any Hockney fans will have a wonderful time and there are many other artists to appreciate. Plentiful parking, good range of food options. Plentiful free parking and access via public transport is easy. Highly recommended and I will be back!

One rule for one and another for another person states on door no dogs allowed except guide dogs fella been told he can take his dog in but needs to be carried yet daughter bought a dink in a sealed cup and isn't allowed it. Rude lady at the desk won't be coming back anytime soon

Beautiful building but staff are a let down. Can take dogs in as long as "carried" even though signage says no dogs but can't walk through building with a drink purchased from their cafe. Obviously short of knowledge of their own restrictions and customer service.

Café is overpriced for what you get, and you get asked to leave when you purchased a drink from the mill ... I'm not sure how this works. Can I suggest a customer service course for all employees.
