Top Best French Restaurants in Lower Dunsforth

"Fancy enjoying a slice of Paris right in the middle of Leeds?. Head to this bistro, which serves quality French cooking in a high-brow location (it counts BBC Leeds and the Northern Ballet among its neighbours). Cute touches like candles in wax-drenched bottles add to the Gallic charm, but above all it’s the consistently excellent food that draws punters in."

"Le Chalet is a charming French tearoom in the heart of Leeds city centre, where you can take a break in a pretty venue while trying one of 25 speciality teas. If you’re hungry, choose from a menu of baguettes, pastries and cakes, or go for one of their traditionally French dishes like the meat feast gallete or the tarte provençale. If you fancy being indulgent, their French-take on afternoon tea is a must-try."

"What: Bringing a slice of France to Leeds, Le Chalet is the place to go if you're wanting a Gallic-inspired brunch. Indulge in everything from French toast topped with bacon to a full French breakfast, which includes a fresh sliced baguette with jam and honey, a pastry of your choice, a juice and a hot drink. Now that's a spread that's hard to refuse.Where:31-32 Park Row, LS1 5JD"

"We’re about to let you in on Leeds’ best kept secret… The basement bar and bistro Sous Le Nez. It’s hidden away from the trendier part of town but that doesn’t matter to us – it’s the perfect place to wine and dine your partner in crime. The focus is on French cuisine and proper restaurant service."

"This is classic Hotel du Vin with a period building (in this case, an orphanage) given a dark and clubby makeover. It's comfortable without being fussy and smart without feeling too formal. Bedrooms are crisp with excellent bathrooms while food is classic French with a rich wine list."

"Côte Brasserie is a name the whole country knows – they’re famed for their delicious French fare. The venue is inspired by Parisian bistros, and they’ve got a menu to match. You can pop in for breakfast, lunch or supper – start the day with French Toast, fruit salad and maple syrup, head back at lunch to sample their Steak Frites with garlic butter or nip in for a hearty dinner of Roasted Pork Belly."

"Côte Brasserie serve breakfast and brunch from Saturday to Sunday, and Bank Holidays, from 10am to 2pm. Highlights include a breakfast set menu that involves any cooked breakfast with fresh orange juice or cloudy apple juice and a hot drink of your choice. Options include a full English breakfast, Crepe Complete (pancakes, bacon and comte cheese), Eggs Florentine, Eggs Royal and Eggs Avocado."

"Côte’s tagline is “Relaxed all day dining inspired by the brasseries of Paris” and I would agree with that. They serve breakfast/brunch between 8am and noon Monday to Friday and 9am till 1pm Saturday and Sunday. They have a good lunchtime and early evening set menu at two courses for £11.95 that includes French classics like steak frites and baked camembert."

"This pop-up French restaurant that takes over Le Chalet’s tearoom every Friday and Saturday night. It specialises in two very specific French delicacies. You can melt raclette over potatoes, charcuterie and cornichons or dip French bread into a molten pot of Emmental, Brie and Gruyère fondue."

"There are two Rustique French restaurants in York, the second one opening a few years ago after the popularity of the first on Castlegate. “Established in 2004, Rustique specialises in rustic French cooking in a busy, vibrant upbeat Bistro atmosphere. Offering a large and varied selection of traditionally cooked, locally sourced meat and fish dishes, we pride ourselves on giving our customers a first class, French-inspired dining experience."

"They’re so popular in fact that there have two restaurants in York. Although the foods not as sophisticated as others in the roundup, they serve honest, great quality food that’s great for casual dining. Specialising in French cuisine at affordable prices, they have an ever-popular two-course set menu which starts at £14.95."

"Lovely French restaurant, reasonably priced and has an excellent reputation. There are two restaurants in town – the nearest one to the apartment is Lendal.www.rustiquerestaurants.co.uk/rustique-york-castlegatewww.rustiquerestaurants.co.uk/rustique-york-lendal"

"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."

"Boasting its own Michelin recommendation (it’s not quite a Michelin star, but give them time), a visit to Tharavadu is always an absolute pleasure. The home of south Indian Keralan cuisine in Leeds, this restaurant sets expectations high, but continues to meet those high standards every single time. There are no bland kormas or butter chickens here."
