Top Best French Restaurants in Leathley

"We all know that France has an incredible culinary reputation, and Kendells Bistro certainly does it justice. They offer a romantic fine dining experience in an intimate restaurant, which is perfect for special occasions. The menu changes daily, depending on the fresh, seasonal produce they can source, and it’s written on the blackboard, which you can view with the binoculars provided."

"What: In France, breakfast often involves a pastry or some other kind of baked good and quite frankly, that is the sort of meal we can really get behind. At Le Chalet in Leeds, you can pretend you’ve sauntered off to the Gallic region by tucking into the likes of crepes, croissants and French toast topped with bacon and maple syrup – bon appetit. Where: 31-32 Park Row, LS1 5JD"

"Us Brits love tea and Le Chalet has shown us just how good a French tearoom can be. They have 18 different teas for you to choose from, with everything from English Breakfast and Earl Grey to Lapsang Souchong, Hibiscus and Lavender. But it’s not just about the tea."

"Tucked away underneath the Quebec Hotel, Sous Le Nez has been the tour de force of French food in Leeds for nearly 25 years. As you’d expect their menus are refined with careful attention to detail, which is why you can expect exquisite creations like their gateau of fillet steak stuffed with shallots, mushrooms and garlic, then topped with peppercorn sauce. They also have an extensive wine list, so you can match your dinner with the perfect bottle of vino."

"Sultry in its own right, you'll find all the Hotel du Vin hallmarks inside this low-level, pale-rendered building: slate and wooden floors, charcoal-grey walls, moody black-and-white photographs, tan leather armchairs with splashes of cherry red and aubergine in cushions and footstools. This style continues to the rooms and many of the bathrooms have freestanding baths. The French brasserie-style dining-room is all terracotta and sage-green walls, semi-private side-booths framed by wool curtains and softly glowing brass table lamps; cooking is confident and portions are generous."

"The Hotel du Vin and Bistro is an impressive Grade II listed building which has been transformed from its darker days as a 19th century orphanage, to a modern luxurious 44 bed boutique hotel. Situated on the edge of the city, it is close enough for a short trip to the racecourse or city centre, yet far enough away to provide that relaxing end to a busy day. With hand-sprung mattresses, sumptuous linen and beautiful bathrooms the suites have a cosy, relaxing appeal."
