Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Durkar

"What: It may be best known for its fantastically priced evening set menus but Fettle's brunch offering is just as impressive as the rest of its food. Head to this intimate café and restaurant for brunch on both on weekdays and weekends to enjoy the likes of chai spiced red rice porridge, mushrooms on pumpernickel rye toast, and salt beef Benedict.Where:73 Great George Street, LS1 3BR"

"Fettle is a local favourite in Leeds thanks to its yummy food and charming Scandinavian-style décor. Their brunch menu has dishes from across the globe and plenty of options for us meat-free folk to tuck into, while their smaller evening menu also has several veggie-friendly options. If you’re after a calming atmosphere and some delicious food, then get booked in here now."

"When to go: Head down for a lazy brunch, take a book, order a large coffee, and while away a few hours. What to have: The partisan breakfast (meat, veggie and vegan available) cooked and served in a skillet, is comfort food at its best. For something a little lighter, try their Persian eggs with Medjoul dates and warming spices."

"Located on Micklegate, Partisan serve both breakfast and brunch. Treat yourself to French Toast, Eggs Benedict, Smashed Avocado and Melted Goats Cheese or the fabulous Partisan Breakfast."

"As the name suggest, Brew & Brownie make an abundance of different flavoured brownies. I must have sampled about 4 of them during my time in York, and even stopped by before I caught the train home so that I could enjoy a little treat on the journey!. And if you’re not a brownie lover, never fear!"

"Famous for their spectacular pancakes – and many other yummy sweet and savoury treats. Normally it’s hard to get a table in here, so make sure to get here early (or be prepared to wait!) Currently open for click and collect or order at the door."

"San Co.co is a cheap and cheerful cafe that prides itself on being a fuss-free eatery. You can start with a coffee or one of their huge range of Twining teas, before choosing something from the menu. They make an early start here, so you can grab a bacon butty on the way to work, but if it’s lunch you’re after, you can choose from a vast array of sandwiches, salads and hot dishes, made fresh each day."

"San Co Co has plenty to offer, but their coffee, in particular, has earned them plenty of fans. Using Caffe Vero Italian coffee blends from Nottingham, they offer a slew of tremendous brews, including an awesome macchiato and a delicious iced coffee. Their little cafe is the perfect spot to stop for a brew, and watch the world go by, but don’t be surprised if you’re tempted in by the food."

"Serving an array of tasty brews, from cappacinos and lattes, to espressos and fresh filter coffee, San Co. Co has something to suit every taste and craving, and they also offer a great breakfast and lunch menu if you're feeling peckish. Visit: 12 New Briggate, LS1 6NU - facebook.com/cafesancoco"

"If you’re up for trying something a little different head to Barbakan, a Polish inspired cosy and nice restaurant serving traditional hearty dishes which is why it’s one of the best places to eat in York. I’d recommend the Hungarian pancakes with flavoursome stew and finish off with one of their homemade desserts – the apple cake with meringue tasted like Christmas with all its wonderful spices. Give this place a try you won’t forget it!"

"This independent restaurant on Fossgate serves predominately Polish cuisine – and a delicious brunch!. Currently operating as takeaway only with a limited menu, but once its reopened fully do yourself a favour and book a brunch here. Their full English breakfast is one of the best."

"The Pig and Pastry is a family run and family-friendly cafe on Bishopthorpe Road. They’ve received numerous accolades since they opened their doors in 2008 and are probably one of the most loved cafes in York. Like many modern establishments, they pride themselves on sourcing their produce from local suppliers and they will openly share with their customers who and where their ingredients came from."

"Another brunch place that was hugely popular with our readers. Located on the beautiful Bishy road, this place is worth a detour out of the city centre. With dish names like ‘The Benedict Cumberland’ and ‘Hip-hop-a-pot-hummus’, you know you’re in for a treat."

Built in 1634, its interior is notable for having two naves, as well as an original Renaissance rood screen, pulpit, and stalls.

"When Matt and I first got together and started going out in York, Jalou was actually still called Parish. It’s housed in an old church which still seems so strange to me, even now, but it’s also one of the most popular places to be in York on a Friday and Saturday night. 2 Micklegate, York YO1 6JG"

"When it comes to hot dogs, there’s only one place you need to visit – Fat Annie’s. They’ve been cooking up brilliant bangers since 2014 and they’re really ruddy good at it. The Classic is a locally made pork and beef dog, but if you fancy mixing it up a little you’ve got options, like The Cheese One, which is a Big Melt sausage, with pork, beef, bacon, garlic and cheese."

"Yes, I’m aware it’s a chain but Byron burgers are too elite not to mention. Consistency is key from chains and I can confirm that ordering Byron to your uni house does just that. There is the odd occasion where the chips aren’t awfully crispy upon arrival, but just pop them back in the oven and complain to Deliveroo and you’ve got yourself a fiver."
