Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Holbeck

"Wapentake is a café, pub and bakery designed to create a little piece of Yorkshire. Although I think of Wapentake as more of a pub than a café in that they serve up local beers, Yorkshire puddings (and Yorkshire pudding burgers!), and crisp butties, they absolutely function as a café too. They focus on all things local, with coffee from a family-run company in Skipton called Coffee Care, tea from Taylors of Harrogate and all cakes are baked on site."

"92 Kirkgate, Leeds LS2 7DJWapentake is a delightful little venue, on Leeds’ oldest street. As well as a selection of beers and wines, Wapentake serves a daytime menu that includes a vegan fry up, vegan bangers & mash and vegan burgers. Their selection of freshly baked cakes usually includes a vegan option too."

"If you don’t mind going a little out of your way to find a great Leeds coffee shop, you should hunt out Cafe 164, in their little nook on the ground floor of Munro House.

Their house blend has been made to complement the food but they also use a range of local and national independent suppliers, from Leeds’ North Star and Maude to Casa Espresso in Bradford and Bruce and Luke’s in Cumbria."

However, everything I’ve tried from there is amazing, so I can promise you that you won’t be disappointed!"
