Best Fine Dining in Eccup

"Leeds isn’t short of cracking curry houses by any means, but Tharavadu gets a special mention here for its Kerala cuisine. The menu, inspired by the south-west state of Kerala in India, includes traditional street foods, breakfast dishes, soups and dosa, with handy explanations of the cultural significance of its dishes. It also offers an express lunch deal with a feast of three curries, a side dish, rice, dosa and chutneys, for less than a tenner."

"Award winning Indian restaurant Tharavadu serves up tasty Indian cuisine from Kerala in a modern, chic venue. What’s really impressive is that this venue was recommended in the Michelin restaurant guide in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019!. Kerela cuisine has a multitude of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes prepared using fish, poultry and red meat, meaning there’s something on this menu for everyone."

"Fettle is a brilliant find if you’re looking for somewhere to have brunch in Leeds. On the weekend, the Scandinavian-inspired cafe has a special all-day menu that bridges the gap between breakfast and lunch. You’ve got classics like their full English breakfast, but the veggie alternative is arguably even better – you’ll get slices of halloumi or tofu, a free-range egg cooked your way and sourdough toast, served with beautifully seasoned wilted spinach, mixed beans, confit tomatoes and a flat mushroom."

"What:Fettle may be best known for its great value set menus in the evening (two courses for £25), but you can also pop by here for breakfast. Tuck into the likes of mushrooms on pumpernickel rye toast or a slow-smoked pork belly Benedict. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of early starts either, as Fettle’s breakfast menu is served daily until 4pm."

"Fettle offers an array of tasty clean eats, inspired by cuisines from across the world. You can try the shakshuka, a hearty vegetable stew, brimming with North African spices. Or if you’re feeling particularly hungry, go for their vegan-friendly gnocchi."

"Serving a contemporary European menu rooted in classical French techniques. Delivering a 3-course meal for two and a bottle of wine for £40. Check Facebook for their menu."

"Eat & Drink, Restaurants"

"02/05/2021: We have ordered numerous meals, to collect, during lockdown., from Iris. This week I had the salmon and my husband had the duck-both were absolutely delicious. The cooking instructions are easy to follow and timings are spot on."

"Iris is a contemporary British restaurant located in the heart of Wakefield city Centre, close to the Cathedral and the Bull Ring fountains."

"The Ivy is a place for celebration, champagne and cherished ones. What to have: You can’t go wrong with much here, but look out for the tuna carpaccio with citrus ponzu dressing, and the apple tart fine, flambeed tableside. Sumptuous, bright, and tasteful décor ensure The Ivy is easily recognisable wherever you are."

"The Ivy in York do a Saturday and Sunday Brunch (and bank holidays). The restaurant itself is a beautiful art deco inspired space. With options like Truffle Arancini, Zucchini fritti, Eggs Benedict and Avocado Benedict, as well as Hot Buttermilk Pancakes for those (like me) with a sweet tooth!"

"The iconic Ivy is located within the bustling St Helen’s Square. Expect all the style and glamour of the original Ivy London, as they serve a delicious selection of savoury and sweet treats 7 days a week. Champagne is obligatory in such a stunning location of course."

"Here’s one of the best farms in Leeds for kids, but with a difference. Hope Pastures is all about rescuing and rehabilitating horses, ponies and donkeys. After they’ve managed to do that, they let people come and visit the animals seven days a week, learning all about them and how tp look after them as you go."

"Arch Cafe is run by Age UK Leeds, a charity that helps older people in the community, and all the proceeds are ploughed back into their great work. That means your cuppa, or your coffee if you prefer, comes with added feel-good. You can tuck into everything from cheesy omelettes to goats cheese ciabattas, but the stars of the show are their incredible homemade cakes which change daily – will it be a traditional Victoria sponge, a slice of lemon drizzle or a brownie?"

"What:Taking the phrase ‘feel good food’ to rather literal extremes, Arch Café is run by the charity Age UK, which invests all of its proceeds into charitable projects helping the elderly in the area. Breakfasts here are a cheap and cheerful affair, with options to try including eggs on toast – remember to leave room for one the freshly-baked cakes too.Where: Bradbury Building, Mark Lane, LS2 8JA"

"Do good as you eat well, thanks to this much-treasured social enterprise in Leeds. The cafe itself has honed a lovely, family-friendly environment with homemade cakes, sandwiches and hot specials made to fill that gaping hole in your tummy. High chairs and baby-changing facilities are on hand too, plus some of the friendliest staff around."

"What: We’re a big fan of puns here at SquareMeal, so Pride & Produce was practically guaranteed to make it into our list. We promise there’s more to this café and bar than just good wordplay though. Breakfast here is served daily until midday, with dishes to choose from including eggs benedict or apple and cranberry fruit toast slathered in butter.Where:33A Main Street, LS25 1DS"

"Pride and Produce is one of Garforth’s most popular eateries. You can take a seat in the spacious cafe or order to takeaway – either way, you’re spoilt for choice. Start the day with classics like a Full English, pancakes or eggs Benedict, alongside a cup of Yorkshire tea or North Star coffee."

"This Prohibition-era speakeasy is one of Leeds’ best bars – and The Maven has got a particularly special relationship with gin that’s worth experiencing. They have over 50 gins behind the bar including the likes of Whitley Neil, Sipsmith and Tanqueray. If you’re a G&T lover, the Old Tom gin with a twist of grapefruit is a winner, or you can go for one of their creative cocktails, like the Hibiscus Swizzle, mixing WMonkey 47 gin, with hibiscus syrup, blackberries, cranberry juice and lemon syrup."

"If you’re searching for high-end cuisine, look no further than Aperitivo in West Park. This North Leeds restaurant produces contemporary Italian dishes with a Yorkshire twist and for that reason it’s considered a heaven for the foodies of Leeds. Owner and award-winning chef Luke Downing is the brains behind the restaurant and he’s created a seasonal menu which follows the principles of high-quality ingredients, fresh produce and the use of local suppliers."

"The atmospheric and attractive bar stocks more than 50 gins. Yes, you read that right over 50!. They offer to share their love of gin with you for £35 per person and consists of a selection of three drinks, with history and lots of tasting tips."
