The Best Restaurants in Leeds, Offers and Events
"Many of the reviews for Wen's praise the restaurant's "authentic" dishes which have proved to be a high hit. One man left a glowing review after his first visit. He said: "Flavour was great throughout; rich and rewarding, but with enough subtleties to keep things delicate - my lamb had a well-judged level of chilli, and was lean and moist."
"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 east Leeds Chinese has an army of fans who simply can't get enough of Rice Paper's "perfect food". A recent review said: "I've struggled for over ten years to find a Chinese takeout in England that was half decent. "Got to the point that I gave up trying and accepted they were all average [but I] tried Rice Paper last night and we ordered the Deluxe menu for 2 to try a bit of everything."
"A family run affair – Rice Paper Cantonese is a local classic found in LS15, a little away from the city centre. However, it gets a place on this roundup because of its glistening reputation and the wonderful, indulgent Cantonese food that it produces. One to put on the list if you’re looking to indulge, there’s a good mix in terms of Westernised favourites and authentic home cooking."
"Customers say that they receive excellent service, as the staff is friendly and the food is served quickly. Rice Paper is both a restaurant and a takeaway, and it has built an outstanding reputation for the quality of the food. Customers also note that the portion sizes are good."
"Oriental City, in LS7, is a massive hit with those who’re out for a serious eat. Perhaps the most widely remarked aspect of eating at the long running establishment is that their portion sizes are generous. They’ve got an exceptionally big menu, too, so if your out with picky eaters, there’s almost guaranteed to be something on the menu that’ll tickle their fancy."
"A large banquet hall hidden above a small wholesale supermarket. Huge homemade Dim Sum menu, Hong Kong style dishes, and if you like what you’ve had, pick up the ingredients on your way out."
"North Bar was serving wild, innovative beers back when many of today’s craft aficionados were still drinking Carling and, despite fierce competition, it remains Leeds’s pre-eminent craft beer bar. And it’s one that, certainly at weekends, still feels like a boozy, unpretentious late-night DJ bar, rather than a place of arid, uptight beer connoisseurship. From North’s Prototype (a quintessential northern pale ale created with Kirkstall Brewery), to such seldom-seen draft guests as Brewfist’s Bionic or Stone Brewing’s dark kölsch Spröcketbier, you will rarely drink anything here that is less than impressive."
"This narrow bar has long been an institution in Leeds as a haven of international craft beers. It now brews its own under the banner North Brewing Co, and they're rather good. Drink them here, or visit the..."
"Bread + Roses is without a doubt one of the best cafes in Bradford, home to bright and airy décor with cosy seating for studying while you eat. This independent gem is a vegan and vegetarian café, serving fresh, high quality food in style. Expect warming soups and healthy salads bursting with flavour – not forgetting, an impressive range of homemade vegan cakes!"
"Monday-Friday 8am-9pm, Saturdays 9am-9.30pm, Sundays 10am-3pm. Opened just a few months ago, this vegetarian cafe has been a welcome addition to the city’s bustling North Parade. It’s a light, bright, friendly space with large tables for groups or mingling."
"A train station may seem like an unusual location to describe as ‘Instagrammable’ but York train station is far from ordinary. The beautiful building is home to some stunning pieces of architectural work, as well as modern film interest!. The bridge that connects the platforms at York train station is actually the one that Harry and Hagrid walk over in the first Harry Potter film!"
"Whether it’s one scoop or two, a cone or a tub, can you resist more than 40 mouth-wateringly good flavours?. Scrumptious salted caramel, cherry crumble and honeycomb, delicious unicorn, rainbow or marshmallow and classic strawberries and cream, chocolate and of course vanilla – just a few of the sensationally good flavours from The Ice Cream Farm here at Grass Hoppers!. Choose your tub/cone; choose your flavour; choose your extras!"
"It is set in 17 acres of lovely Yorkshire countryside, and within easy reach of Leeds and Bradford with wide car and coach parking. Open 7 days a week with an outstanding selection of plants plus stunning gifts and home decorations, gorgeous outdoor furniture and all you need to keep your garden looking great each and every season, Tong is set to inspire you."
