"The Bishop is located in a historical building, the pillars and wood beams being clues to its ripe old age. But the trendy interior and friendly atmosphere of this stunning establishment are thoroughly 21C. The cuisine is honest and international; nothing fussy, just robust flavours. This is a local favourite, so be sure to make a reservation." - Michelin Inspector

We were quite disappointed by the speed of service at the Bishop. It is the slowest dining experience I had so far. We ordered chef’s menu with 5 course, and main course came after 2 hours that we sat down. Portions are quite small aswell that’s why after finishing each course, we had to wait for long times for other course to come. Waiter did not inform us at all about these waiting times till we asked. The food has good quality and taste, but not anything super impressive for a Michelin Guided place. Unfortunately, the long waiting times between each course made our experience really unpleasant in general. I hope they can improve the service in the future.

For a last minute dinner, with no reservation, they made us welcome. Served us superior food. Were very hospitable and accomidating. Chefs choice 3 course oh my it was impressive. We think it worth driving an hour plus to come here.

The food and atmosphere were amazing! For each dish, they explained what was in it and what type of flavors to expect. The wine pairing went really well with each dish as well. I highly recommend taking the night out and having a lovely date or gathering here! Highly highly recommend!

Pleasant surprise in Leiden, tasty dishes (even Spanish inspired Tapas), amazing wines, and a good friendly atmosphere. The only point of improvement is to be more careful before serving the bread 🍞, our bread was still frozen/cold from inside. Other than that perfect place to have dinner 🍽

We dined at The Bishop for my birthday. Being lactose and gluten intolerant, we informed them of my dietary restrictions when booking. They were more than accommodating and made us feel very welcome. The meals were incredible, with great care taken in food preparation.

Owner and Chef team knocked it out of the park with wine-chef pairing tonight. 3 of the 4 dishes (and pairings) I might have passed on, but really glad I didn't. Trust the wine food pairing!!! Just roll with Owner/Chef Mello and sit back and enjoy. Advice: Make a reservation.

Everything was perfection. From the moment you walk in your eyes are captivated with the design. We were a party of four and I had the monk fish that was prepared wonderfully and my husband had the short rib. We did the wine patinga with our meal as wrll. When in Leidem this is a MUST!

This is one of my favorite places, with warmth, ambiance, and outstanding food. The owner and staff are so professional and welcoming. We enjoyed the suggested pairings, all creative and so beautifully served. The owner shows exceptional care and makes sure the diners have a great experience. This is a wonderful, special place.

We visited for Prosecco and dessert and loved The Bishop. Desserts were very creative and delicious. Staff was friendly and impeccably well trained and professional.

Absolutely love this place! The surprise menu is very nice if you like trying new dishes like I do. The wine selection is lovely. The interior is beautiful and the service is excellent.

Had 10 people for the 3 course meal...was terrific but had a bad experience with the wine pairing. They were short pouring the Rioja to squeeze 10 glasses out of one bottle....when I questioned the waiter he got upset with me...bad form for a nice restaurant.
