Where to Get the Best Brunch in Leeds
"The park is 50 miles (80 km) north-east of Manchester; Otley, Ilkley, Leeds and Bradford lie to the south, while Kendal is to the west, Darlington to the north-east and Harrogate to the south-east.[5] The national park does not include all of the Yorkshire Dales. Parts of the dales to the south and east of the national park are located in the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The national park also includes the Howgill Fells and Orton Fells in the north west although they are not often considered part of the dales."
"The name, Sheffield, has its origins in Old English and derives from the name of a principal river in the city, the River Sheaf. This name, in turn, is a corruption of shed or sheth, which refers to a divide or separation.[8][9] The second half of the name Sheffield refers to a field, or forest clearing.[10] Combining the two words, it is believed that the name refers to an Anglo-Saxon settlement in a clearing by the confluence of the River Don and River Sheaf.[11]"
"Yorkshire or the County of York was so named as it is the shire (administrative area or county) of the city of York or York's Shire. "York" comes from the Viking name for the city, Jórvík. The word "Shire" is either from the Old Norse word skyr or from Old Englishscir meaning share, care or official charge.[12] The "shire" suffix is locally pronounced /-ʃə/ "shuh", or occasionally /-ʃiə/, a homophone of "sheer".[13]"
"Again, this one involves eggs, especially on the daytime menu. But if that’s not a problem for you, then you will love this quirky spot. If you don’t eat eggs then you still have options and some very tasty ones too."
"Stop at this independent coffee shop and restaurant on Micklegate and you can look forward to all day brunch dishes such as French toast, eggs benedict, and cooked breakfasts served in a skillet."
"09/05/2021: Had breakfast here a couple of times while staying in York. Absolutely fantastic food and great service. Best gluten free bread I have had and the cakes also great."
"The Pig and Pastry is a family run and family-friendly cafe on Bishopthorpe Road. They’ve received numerous accolades since they opened their doors in 2008 and are probably one of the most loved cafes in York. Like many modern establishments, they pride themselves on sourcing their produce from local suppliers and they will openly share with their customers who and where their ingredients came from."
"Another brunch place that was hugely popular with our readers. Located on the beautiful Bishy road, this place is worth a detour out of the city centre. With dish names like ‘The Benedict Cumberland’ and ‘Hip-hop-a-pot-hummus’, you know you’re in for a treat."
"Choose from our extensive range on our drinks menu, locally sourced juices, luxury hot chocolates, fresh herbal teas and wacky kids milkshakes. Don’t see anything you fancy?. Our friendly team will be happy to get creative and help you find something you desire!"
"Just a few minutes from the Shipley Glen tramway lies a stunning country pub on Baildon Moor. The classic Yorkshire bricks, wood-burning stoves and huge beer garden with amazing views make The Old Glen House well worth a trip out of the city – especially if you have the pooch with you as it’s super dog-friendly. You can look forward to delicious pub grub and a mean Sunday roast, which you can pair with ales, wine and spirits."
" This handsome, solid stone building has appeared in a number of guises down the years, including a temperance inn and a tearoom for local mill worke ..." Read our full review"
"Melton’s is perfect for any special occasion or a romantic date night with the other half. Melton’s menu offers an immaculate collection of tasty local and international dishes using only fresh regional produce, all perfected presented. Mix that with the friendly, warm service and it’s easy to see why this charming restaurant has remained a local favourite over the years."
"Run by chef Michael Hjort and wife Lucy, Melton’s is an intimate restaurant serving high-end European food. Hjort trained with the Rouxs, so his cooking is refined yet down-to-earth. If you get menu panic when faced with too many delish options, go for the five-course tasting menu."
"Le Cochon Aveugle serve a fine dining blind tasting menu for the more adventurous foodie. “It is a small stripped back restaurant in the heart of York, serving a frequently changing tasting menu. The contemporary European menu is rooted in classical French techniques, and showcases the very best produce available to the kitchen on each individual day."
"When to go: When you fancy a full-on tasting menu and wine pairing. What to have: There’s no a la carte here, so just choose a tasting menu, sit back and enjoy. Nestled just off Walmgate is Le Cochon Aveugle."
"Cosy Club is actually my favourite place to eat in the whole of York and for that reason alone, I think it deserves a place on this list. The outside seating area that resides on Fossgate is a beautiful place to people watch while sipping a delicious fruity cocktail during the summer months. When the temperatures become cooler however, Cosy Club opens itself up to the most gorgeous, cosy retreat."
"The inside of this bar and restaurant is full of grandeur and eccentricities – and the food tastes as good as it looks!. Serving brunch until 5pm every day, here you can just keep going, and going, and going."
