THE 25 BEST Restaurants in Leeds - With A Helpful Map (2020
"Imagine being able to visit one of the best-loved eateries in Leeds and getting change from a tenner. That’s exactly what you can do at The Falafel Guys and the food is top drawer. It will only cost you £5 to get three of their own recipe falafel balls in a wrap or salad bowl and for a quid extra you can throw in halloumi or chicken shawarma."
"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."
"Falafel Guys can now bringing their deliciously healthy Middle-Eastern street food to your door. Vegans can choose from a falafel salad or wrap and there are plenty of options for vegetarians."
"Start with a gin cocktail on arrival, along with a few nibbles throughout your gin masterclass experience. The Chapter House Bar’s friendly team will explain the history of gin, its origins and types. Expect local Yorkshire gin favourites to feature such as York Gin, Slingsby and Slingsby Rhubarb, discussing their differences and story."
"Grey subway tiles and a cool, dark wood interior make Hoxton North one of the hippest spots on this top Harrogate Brunch list. Touting itself as a ‘London inspired coffee shop’, diners can choose from brunch plates including all-day breakfast sandwiches, Croque monsieur, and smoked salmon and avocado toast. They have a strong range of cakes and pastries if that’s more your thing, and even serve brunch cocktails from midday."
"For slightly quirkier brunch concoctions such as haricot beans and chorizo dishes to sweetcorn and courgette fritters, Hoxton North has got you covered. Their menu is ever-changing, and it’s all fresh and delicious. As well as brunch and great coffee, they serve cakes and have a full bar."
"The breakfast at Hoxton North in Harrogate is so great that I had a photo of its french toast as my phone wallpaper for approx."
"Restored from a crumbling 19th-century building, the ‘Lamb’ mixes warm exposed brickwork with big open windows and one of the best beer gardens in Leeds. Expect the full range of Leeds Brewery beers alongside an extensive range of draught lagers, wines, spirits, soft drinks and a menu of locally sourced, freshly cooked food. If you’re looking for lively courtyard vibes just a stone’s throw from the centre of town, this is it."
"What: There aren't many places in Leeds with a choice of outdoor areas but The Lamb & Flag has just that. You can either sit up on the small private terrace area or find a table in the sprawling courtyard. What the both have in common however, is wonderful views of Leeds Minster which sits directly opposite the pub."
"Located down on Kirkgate, Doghouse is the second venture from the owners of 212 Cafe and Bar, but this time they’re taking the music from the DJ booth and turning it into a full-blown record store. On offer here is three floors of stripped back, vintage-style decor where families can kick back on old Chesterfield sofas. Spend the day playing a retro Super Nintendo console, working your way through the tempting bar snacks on offer (pork pies with piccalilli, heck yes) and browsing Paula’s Record Store on the third floor."
"El Piano, tucked away in the historic Grape Lane, is wholly gluten-free and plant-based. That doesn’t mean it’s restricted menu by any stretch, as a 5-year winner of Visit York’s Tourism Award will attest to. With over two decades behind them, the El Piano team also run a regular cooking school and a B&B just in case you were keen to really immerse yourself in the world of veggie and vegan cookery."
"Pitcher and Piano – Welcoming you from day to night with a sophisticated escape suited for every occasion. Whether it’s bubbles over brunch or a relaxed Sunday roast, after work drinks or a night to remember – each of our bars has been carefully crafted to bring you something wonderfully unique. Pitcher & Piano do a bottomless brunch."
