Leeds, Food Guide: 4 Street Food food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Headingley
"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."
"It shouldn’t be a surprise that most locals will hand out a glowing recommendation for this little popup. A red truck on Briggate high street, their sumptuous falafel and halloumi wraps are to die for, and what’s more, you’ll be able to pick one up for the change in your back pocket. 47 Briggate, Leeds LS16HF (falafelguys)"
"There are three aspects of ordering a takeaway from Tak Yan that receive consistent praise from customers. First, the quality of the food is of a high standard. Second, the prices are reasonable, so customers feel they are receiving good value for money."
"The Merrion Centre is a city centre stalwart that remains one of the most interesting and diverse places to go shopping in Leeds. It’s home to Jumbo Records, perfect for all your musical needs, while footie fans can make a pilgrimage to the official Leeds United and Leeds Rhinos stores. It’s a great mix of popular names – Morrisons, 3, Wilko, Iceland – and indie brands such as Chilli Shop and The Bookish Type."
"It is one of the well-known shopping centres in Leeds that has gone through many transformations over the period. You will find a wide range of stores inside with some big household names such as Home Bargains, Morrisons, Superdrug etc. My Thai, Smoke Barbecue and Bulgogi Grill are also some of the famous brands which have made strong influence there."
"There’s good reason why Bradfordians are so welcoming of the building site currently taking up the eastern side of the city centre. After much of the area was razed to the ground several years ago to make way for a new development, the proposed shopping centre was abandoned amid the recession. With the loss of the city’s nerve centre and the subsequent proliferation of pound shops, the derelict site poignantly become known as “the hole in the heart”."
"A few minutes’ walk away from the museum is Bradford’s newest shopping centre, with 70 shops and eateries under one roof. Visit the Broadway Bradford website"
"If you just want a low-key, no-frills meal, then Grove Café is one of the best vegan restaurants in Leeds for you. Their varied vegan offering means you won’t be short on choice, either, making it even more of a perfect spot for a casual dinner with friends. Their vegan and vegetarian menus are genuinely huge, and they include things like pizzas, burgers, curries, and so much more."
"133-135 Cardigan Road, Leeds LS6 1LJWhile not totally vegan, Grove Cafe on Cardigan Road has become a mainstay of the student vegan scene in Leeds. Serving up vegan curries, pizzas (with vegan cheese) and burgers, Gove Cafe is the place to get your favourite takeaway food, veganised."
"This takeaway restaurant delivers all over Leeds and has an impressive list of vegan pizzas on its menu, with toppings that include vegan cheese, roasted tofu and meat-free chicken pieces. Oh, and it also sells vegan garlic bread. How could you resist?"
"Veggies don’t have to miss out on a good old fashioned chippy tea, thanks to JJ’s Vish and Chips. There’s no actual fish on the menu, instead, you can try deep-fried fillets of Tofish, made from tofu, or Vish, made from banana blossom. But that’s just the start, because they do meat-free versions of all the classics, including Sosage, Scam-pi and Fricken Nuggets."
"Chippy food can often be pretty boring when you’re veggie or vegan. You’re sort of limited to chips and a veggie burger if you’re lucky. Well, that’s about to change for you, as at JJ’s the entire menu is vegan friendly."
"Goji Vegetarian Café and Deli on Goodramgate serve up vegetarian, nutritious and wholesome food, lovingly prepared in-house. They definitely have a passion for good food, which can be seen in the quality of the dishes and they work with local suppliers and organic produce, just ask which dishes are vegan when ordering and you are sure to enjoy a delicious meal!. The deli offers a choice of sweet and savoury snacks, vegan wines and gifts too, and you can take away food too."
"Their breakfast/brunch menu is completely unique, with fresh fruit chia puddings, banana, blueberry and almond loaves, rissoles, frittatas and crumpets. Not ideal if you’re after a bit of bacon, but having tried their Tofu Nourish Bowl on their lunch menu, I can vouch for the food here. OPENING HOURS: Breakfast/brunch is served until 12pm"
"Goji Café is a vegetarian café and deli, just off the main square in York. They aim to bring you colourful, joyful and life-enhancing treats. The cafe is the place to meet with friends or work on your laptop."
