Best Leeds restaurants: 12 eateries for every taste and occasion
"Wens is a new addition to Leeds’ dining scene, and they have already made the mark with tourists, locals, even a famous critic. Taking over Hansa’s North street space, Wens specialise in authentic family Chinese cooking. The Dan Dan noodles, dumplings, and Kung Po Chicken are all musts."
"The authenticity of the dishes from Wen’s Restaurant is what keeps the customers coming back. This takeaway has also received praise for its levels of spicing, as there is enough to make the food tasty without one spice overpowering another."
"This is your chance to try authentic Chinese dishes that rarely make it to these shores. Have you ever tried shredded potatoes covered in glugs of fiery chilli oil?. Or tucked into a whole sea bass stuffed with minced pork and chilli sauce?"
"If you want your food to arrive quickly, then Wonder Food is one of Harrogate’s best Chinese takeaways. Due to the food being delivered so fast, the food always tastes hot and fresh. Wonder Food has also received praise for its generous portion sizes."
"This restaurant features over 150 authentic dishes from all over the world daily, and at the live cooking stations, they provide fabulous food with great entertainment. You get an unbeatable casual dining experience at a great value, within luxurious surroundings. All you have to do is choose your favorites and let the tastebuds do what they are best at."
"Panda Mami is an all-you-can-eat restaurant tucked away just off Ouse Bridge. They have all sorts of food stations, including a sushi bar. They have other sections, like a traditional carvery, Chinese food, Indian Food and a huge dessert selection, including a chocolate fountain."
"Côte Brasserie serve breakfast and brunch from Saturday to Sunday, and Bank Holidays, from 10am to 2pm. Highlights include a breakfast set menu that involves any cooked breakfast with fresh orange juice or cloudy apple juice and a hot drink of your choice. Options include a full English breakfast, Crepe Complete (pancakes, bacon and comte cheese), Eggs Florentine, Eggs Royal and Eggs Avocado."
"Côte’s tagline is “Relaxed all day dining inspired by the brasseries of Paris” and I would agree with that. They serve breakfast/brunch between 8am and noon Monday to Friday and 9am till 1pm Saturday and Sunday. They have a good lunchtime and early evening set menu at two courses for £11.95 that includes French classics like steak frites and baked camembert."
"Brasserie Blanc, based in a beautiful converted mill building on the banks of the River Aire, is a great place to eat with kids in Leeds. While the grown-ups admire the industrial-vibe dining room and munch on French classics, the children will have a great choice on the colourful ‘Henri le Worm’ kids’ menu. The likes of crispy chicken and veggie samosas are up for grabs, followed by sundaes, mousse or lollies for pud."
"Kettlewell is the converging point of several marked walking routes, including the Dales Way. It offers a great stop-off point for some of the best walking in the Dales. In addition, it’s a popular place for cyclists to convene to explore the nearby meandering country lanes and pretty villages."
"It may be on the grounds of Leeds Beckett University, but Beckett Park is open to everyone. It’s a huge park that stretches from Queenswood Drive to Batcliffe Mount, with vast swathes of grassy parkland and a beautiful patch of woodland. There are two tennis courts here and if you head into the woods, you can hunt out Queen Victoria Arch, which was built 250 years ago and altered in 1858 to commemorate the monarch’s historic visit to Leeds."
"Due to its location right next to Leeds Beckett University's Headingley campus, this park is dominated by students during term time. The big, open grass spaces mean it's the perfect place to throw a frisbee or kick a football around. And when it starts to get dark, Headingley's pubs and bars are just a short walk away!"
"When to go: For brunch and go early, they’ll be a queue but its so worth the wait. What to have: The American style pancake stacks are what dreams are made of. We love the banana, caramel sauce and candied hazelnut version."
"Serving up freshly prepared dishes using locally sourced ingredients, this will hit the spot for all your brunch needs. Currently operating a takeaway service."
