The 12 Best Coffee Shops in Leeds
"In 1819, a museum was established in Philosophical Hall, Bond Street, by the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society, and in 1821 it opened to the public. In 1921, control of the museum was handed to the Corporation of Leeds which later became Leeds City Council. In 1862, Philosophical Hall was rebuilt in Park Row, where its stone portico can still be seen on the west side of the road.[1] In 1941, the museum building and artifacts were badly damaged by bombing.[2][3] In 1965 the museum was closed, and a few exhibits removed to a couple of rooms in the city library in 1966."
"The word dale, like dell, is derived from the Old English word dæl. It has cognates in the Nordic/Germanic words for valley (dal, tal), and occurs in valley names across Yorkshire and Northern England.[4] Usage here may have been reinforced by Nordic languages during the time of the Danelaw.[5]. Most of the dales are named after their river or stream (e.g., Arkengarthdale, formed by Arkle Beck)."
"Sample a variety of global cuisine at this popular Argentinian owned cafe. Inside you will find a totally relaxed atmosphere with wooden decor and a range of rustic and antique furniture that are always up for sale. This independent coffee shop come homeware store come restaurant is a true local gem, particularly popular with those who value a real community vibe."
"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."
"Famous for their spectacular pancakes – and many other yummy sweet and savoury treats. Normally it’s hard to get a table in here, so make sure to get here early (or be prepared to wait!) Currently open for click and collect or order at the door."
"Situated on the riverbank by Millennium Bridge is this “unique and charming floating ice cream van”. Ideal for a sunny afternoon walk by the riverside."
"Osbornes @ 68 is another breakfast/brunch place that’s situated not too far from my house; it’s just at the bottom of Gillygate. The food here is absolutely wonderful, with friendly staff and quick service; definitely a place to head to on a lunchtime with friends!. I’d recommend: the club sandwich or the spicy chicken and salsa wrap (and a hot chocolate, as always!)."
"Plenty of vegan/vegan options and all dishes on main menu can be made GF on request. ‘Osborne’s @68 on Gillygate – lovely people, great coffee, and the cakes are delicious and enormous!!"
"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."
"Bradford Cathedral, 1 Stott Hill,, Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD1 4EH - Visit now. Bradford Cathedral has been a place for Christian workshop since the 8th Century, today it feeds the community artistically and spiritually."
"Tucked away behind an inconspicuous gate and seemingly cut off from the rest of the town, the Church of the Holy Trinity is a fantastically atmospheric old building, having survived almost unchanged for the past..."
"York Business Park, White Rose Cl, Nether Poppleton, York YO26 6RL. Beefeater’s breakfast offering at is excellent value especially if you have kids as one child eats free and they count kids as 15 and under. Breakfast is a set charge but is unlimited and you can help yourself to all the components of a full English breakfast as well as continental items like pain au chocolat, cinnamon and raisin bagels, sourdough crumpets, fruit and yoghurt and cereal."
"Great, children eat free with a paying adult and it’s set out like a buffet so can choose whatever you want, they have things for a full English, cereal, yogurts, croissants, fruit, unlimited drinks."
"Pitcher & Piano is a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion, and their restaurant in York is absolutely gorgeous. They’ve got some of the yummiest brunch dishes around, too – how does a brunch burger or a baked Moroccan breakfast sound to you?. For £28 per person, you get one of their amazing dishes as well as two whole hours of bottomless prosecco, bellinis, mimosas, Aperol spritzes and pints of Amstel, which is a great selection!"
"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 offer a bottomless brunch, “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.” Pre-bookings only. Available Saturday & Sunday until 2pm."
