5 Best Restaurants for Dim Sum Leeds 2021
"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."
"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."
"Although customers can collect their takeaway, Monkey King Chinese also has a delivery service. Customers say that their food arrives in a timely manner and that it is always hot on delivery. Other positive points raised are the friendly customer service and the good quality of the tasty food."
"Value for money is one of the best features of China Dragon, as it is one of the cheapest Chinese takeaways in Harrogate, but the quality of the food and the portion sizes do not suffer as a result of the low prices. Former customers also praise the speed of delivery, the flavours of the dishes, and the friendliness of the staff."
"The River Ouse is an idyllic place to snap some Insta shots. During the summer months, the riverside is absolutely bustling with tourists and locals enjoying the boat races, devouring ice creams or reading their books. There are many benches situated along the river as well as a number of bridges connecting different sides of the city that provide stunning views of the river."
"Upper River Restaurant has a takeaway option and a delivery service. People who have moved to the UK from Hong Kong have praised the authenticity of the dishes and said that the food reminds them of the flavours from their home country. Customers also say that the portions are generous and that the food is prepared using fresh ingredients."
"How about switch things up and order some Chinese fast food, instead of a regular meal?. Upper Restaurant serves traditional and authentic Chinese cuisine that’s made with fresh ingredients, which is served onto your plate. The chefs here make sure the visual of the dish is a treat for your eyes, taste buds, and the stomach."
"Zen Rendezvous has been one of the best Chinese takeaways in Leeds for over two decades – it was even championed by Gordon Ramsey on The F Word. The Guiseley staple makes restaurant quality food to eat at home. They’ve got an extensive menu full of tantalising dishes – think Roast Duck in Orange Sauce, Calamari in Black Bean Sauce and Sizzling Bean Curd with Chinese Mushrooms."
"In the Leeds suburb of Guiseley, a few miles from the city centre, but easily accessible by either train or car is the wonderful Zen Rendezvous. A relaxed family restaurant with a great menu – it’s been in Leeds for many years now and has established a wonderful reputation in that time. Here you’ll find all the Chinese classics that’ve become a staple of the UK dining scene."
"Highchairs Available, Wheelchair Accessible, Serves Alcohol, Full Bar, Accepts Mastercard, Accepts Visa, Accepts Discover, Takeout, Reservations, Seating, Table Service, Accepts Credit Cards"
"Located between Leeds and Wetherby, Bramham Park is the site of the iconic Leeds Festival which occurs every August bank holiday weekend. If you don’t hold tickets to the festival, visit during the rest of the year to explore the 18th Century manor house and its sprawling grounds."
"One of the city’s most impressive landmarks, Leeds Minster was built in 1841 on an ancient, holy Christian site. It’s a beautiful, Grade I listed building, designed by Robert Chantrell, with huge stained glass windows by a range of high profile artists, including Schwanfelder, David Evans, Thomas Wilmshirst and most recently Sally Scott. You’ll also find The Leeds Cross inside – it dates back to the 10th century, making it one of the earliest objects in the city’s history."
"One of the most remarkable constructions in Leeds, the Gothic style building was designed by the famous Robert Dennis Chantrell and got consecrated in 1841. In 2012, there was a rechristening and it became known as St. Peter’s and before that, Leeds Parish Church. Alongside the impressive look, visitors stay in awe of the Saxon cross and the vibrant mosaics right behind alter that represent 12 Apostles."
"Grandeur is the order of the day at Temple Newsam, with a huge stately home dominating the impressive grounds to the east of the city, which were initially designed by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. The gorgeous gardens are impressive enough by themselves, but you can also entertain the little ones with a trip to Home Farm or the brand new Go Ape course for the adventurous ones among you!"
"Indeed, rugby and cricket are very close to our hearts, which is why Headingley Carnegie Stadium is one of the biggest attractions in Leeds. The cricket ground, which hosted The Ashes in 2009, can be found on the northern side of the stadium and is home to the Yorkshire County Cricket Club, while the rugby ground on the southern side is shared by Leeds Rhinos and Yorkshire Carnegie. Headingley Carnegie Stadium, St Michael’s Lane, Headingley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS6 3BR."
"You don't have to support the Leeds Rhino's to go see some rugby here, although, we would really prefer it!"
"Just a 20 minute drive from Leeds city centre is St Aidan’s Nature Reserve. A huge country park with abundant wildlife and over 12 kilometres of trails to walk or cycle along. Admire lakes, woodland and plenty of fresh air, as you spot roe deer, skylarks and owls."
"This wetland on the fringes of Leeds is a birdwatcher's paradise and also a top place for a gentle walk. It's off Astley Lane, Swillington."
"Pop over to RSPB St. Aidan's and see what you can spot through your binocs ( also known as binoculars!)"
