Owned and managed by a husband and wife team who are as passionate about the ingredients used in their food as they are about the final results, a visit to Partisan will exceed all expectations. Located on the beautiful Micklegate, Partisan is a cafe by day and a restaurant by night."

"Brew and Brownie fans will happily queue to sit in and enjoy the cracking coffee and delicious pancake stacks, but as it’s just across the road from the entrance to York Museum Gardens, why not order something to take away and enjoy in the Yorkshire sunshine?. Their sister cafe, Brew & Brownie Bakeshop, is just as lovely and they do takeaway salads, sandwiches and cakes too. Brew and Brownie, 5 Museum St, York YO1 7DT"
"If I lived in York, you would find me at Brew & Brownie multiple times a week. Not only do they serve excellent artisan coffee drinks and quality loose leaf tea, their baked goods and extensive breakfast and lunch menu are incredible. The menu changes with the season and ingredients are sourced from the best local farmers and suppliers."
"Major Toms social arrived in Harrogate in 2014 and has since become a vibrant, happening and cool bar, with a focus on the vintage. Tucked away and found above a vintage vinyl store, the bar, pub, café and music venue has brought the cool back to Harrogate and is one of the best pubs in the region if music is your thing. As well as some excellently kept locally source guest beers, they’ve got fresh homemade pizzas on offer and a bunch more craft beers from the likes of Brew Dog, Brooklyn and various others."
"Major Tom’s is a major player in the pizza takeaways in Harrogate. When open, Major Tom’s pizzas and beer were loved by many, so when the pandemic hit I was pleased to see Major Tom’s develop Pizzas to cook at home. These pre-made pizzas are simple and ideal for a mid-week takeaway with all the taste of a stonebaked pizza."
"For anyone who’s ever been out to dinner and thought ‘You know what this meal is missing?. A game of Jenga,’ your prayers have been answered. At retro bar and restaurant"
"The name tells you everything you need to know about Cafe Lento – it translates as ‘slowly’ in English and with good reason, they wanted to create a space where you could escape your busy life for an hour and just relax. You’ll do it in a colourful venue, with a mish-mash of furniture. Sup a Lavazza Tierra coffee and choose from an array of straightforward dishes made using ethically-produced ingredients, from their three egg omelette to the Ploughman’s lunch."
"If you live locally to Headingly area then Cafe Lento is the place to go for breakfast. It’s a small family run business serving a great menu that is freshly made using good ingredients. They have full English, breakfast baps, omelette and a great light dishes selection that are ideal for brunch."
"If you enjoy architecture and medieval clocks, as we do, you should definitely take a stroll through one of Leeds' best arcades!"
"It may be on the grounds of Leeds Beckett University, but Beckett Park is open to everyone. It’s a huge park that stretches from Queenswood Drive to Batcliffe Mount, with vast swathes of grassy parkland and a beautiful patch of woodland. There are two tennis courts here and if you head into the woods, you can hunt out Queen Victoria Arch, which was built 250 years ago and altered in 1858 to commemorate the monarch’s historic visit to Leeds."
"Due to its location right next to Leeds Beckett University's Headingley campus, this park is dominated by students during term time. The big, open grass spaces mean it's the perfect place to throw a frisbee or kick a football around. And when it starts to get dark, Headingley's pubs and bars are just a short walk away!"
"Take the family to the former Tetley brewery in Leeds, which is now home to an art gallery, a whole heap of children’s events and a very family-friendly restaurant. You can stop off for a quick drink after your culture vulture-ing or take your time with a proper sit-down. Their dedicated children’s menu, which doubles as a colouring sheet, offers brunch options like brioche eggy bread until midday, and thereafter it’s all about mains like cheese sarnies or crispy chicken with coleslaw."
"A 20th century Art Deco building is the quintessential location to house an art space; high ceilings and streaming light make for the perfect exhibiting set-up. Formerly the Tetley Ale headquarters and now a protected heritage building, The Tetley opened its newly-renovated doors in late 2013. The venue is curated by Project Space Leeds, a charity which facilitates the space to couple the appreciation of the contemporary arts with learning."
"The former headquarters of the Tetley Brewery at Leeds’ South Bank is now a creative space for art, events and workshops, and also houses a bar serving Yorkshire fare.

"Catch is a modern fish restaurant with a menu of tasty classics and creative twists. Of course, you can get all your battered favourites to takeaway – their whopping king-sized haddock fillet is a must-try for all fish & chip fiends – but they also do a medley of more refined seafood dishes in the restaurant. Expect plates of crisp tempura tiger prawns, aromatic monkfish curries and smoky seafood grills."
