The Best Restaurants in Leeds
"If you haven’t tried one of Falafel Guys’ legendary wraps yet, you need to snaffle one ASAP. Head to their food truck on Briggate or to their stall in Assembly Underground and you’ll be treated to a flatbread loaded with falafel, halloumi, chicken shawarma or any combination of the three. Smothered with traditional Arabic hummus, tahini, fresh salad, lashings of sauce and a pickled chilli, it’s a real treat for the tastebuds."
"There’s a reason why this humble street food favourite is number one on TripAdvisor. The Falafel Guys make their own secret recipe hummus, falafel and tahini fresh every day. You can get three plump balls of falafel wrapped up with halloumi or chicken shawarma with salad, tahini, garlic mayo and chilli sauce – their wraps are absolutely loaded and incredibly filling, so you’re in for a stomach-stretching feast."
"A humble street food van outside M&S on Briggate, Falafel Guys has no seating. We’ll get that out the way now in case it’s a deal breaker for your family. But if you’re looking for a bite-to-go, or even something to take home and devour later, this is a great place to eat with kids."
"Bad Boy has made a name for itself in recent years thanks to its juicy burgers and they come piled high with all kinds of toppings. For example, the Triple Bad Boy is a beef burger stacked with bacon, pulled pork, Monterey Jack, gherkins, lettuce, tomatoes, red onions and Bad Boy’s signature sauce. You don’t have to get a burger, though."
"Using seasonal ingredients, Brewers Fayre The Hunsworth boasts a menu of traditional pub dishes. Varied sharing platters are served alongside tempting nibbles and British favourites. Hearty breakfasts are also available for early risers, while…"
"Set in 9 acres of wooded grounds, the 4-star Weetwood Hall Estate is a 17th-century manor house with an award-winning pub, The Stables, which shows Sky Sports and features a cobbled courtyard. The hotel is just outside Leeds centre, a 10-minute drive from Leeds Airport with complimentary car parking on-site. The contemporary bedrooms feature Yorkshire biscuits, a flat-screen TV with Sky Sports and Video Cast, a work desk and Wi-Fi access, toiletries and tea/coffee making facilities."
"This hotel and venue occupies a 17th-century manor house and more modern buildings, set in extensive wooded grounds. It truly wows with its Mediterranean dining and offers guests a mixture of contemporary and more traditional rooms, some with four-poster beds."
"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."
"‘The best burger on the high street’ & other superlatives are regularly tossed in the direction of Byron Hamburgers, the chain that eve ..." Read our full review"
"The walled city of York was founded by the Romans nearly two thousand years ago, and has seen it’s fair share of history – for a time it was even ruled by the Vikings, and was known as Jórvík. Today, there are still many reminders of the cities medieval past. A walk through “the Shambles” is a must – a winding medieval street overhung by old, timber framed houses and lined with pretty shops."
"York is a walled city in northeast England that was founded by the ancient Romans. Its huge 13th-century Gothic cathedral, York Minster, has medieval stained glass and 2 functioning bell towers. The City Walls form a walkway on both sides of the River Ouse. The Monk Bar gate houses an exhibition tracing the life of 15th-century Plantagenet King Richard III."
"Day 10, 11 & 12 – Kendal, Lakes District & Yorkshire Dales Drive: It’s just 1.5 hours drive to Kendal so feel free to spend the morning continuing to explore Liverpool before heading north after lunch."
"Thomas Atkinson, an 18th century English architect, is famous for remaking the Bishopthorpe Palace in York in the Gothic Revival style. Though a rather influential figure of his time, very little is known about Atkinson's private life. His house, located at 20 St. Andrewgate, is one of the sparse evidences of his life in York."
"One of England's most impressive collections of sculpture is scattered across the formidable 18th-century estate of Bretton Park, 200-odd hectares of lawns, fields and trees. A bit like the art world's equivalent of a safari park, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park showcases the work of dozens of sculptors both national and international. The park is partly a homage to local heroes Barbara Hepworth (1903−75), who was born in Wakefield, and Henry Moore (1898−1986), though more of their works are on display at the Hepworth Wakefield."
"This outdoor gallery near Wakefield is in a former 18th-century estate encompassing more than 500 acres of fields, lakes, exotic trees,…"
