Best Gelato in Gowdall

"When dining with children, a lunch that feels more like a party treat might be enough to tempt even the most reticent of young foodies. Cue Crepe Affaire, where everything on offer is, you guessed it, crepe-based. There are the sweet treats, like salted caramel, Oreo, peanut butter and Nutella, but don’t miss out on the savouries."

"They’re famous for their traditional Italian gelato, which comes in a range of weird and wonderful flavours. You can try the likes of Banana del Brasile and Dulce de Leche, all served up in epic style – their Conos promise a chocolate cone with your choice of flavours presented in the shape of a gelato flower. If you’re not feeling the ice cream, they also do waffles, macarons and crepes."

"This authentic Italian gelato spot is famous in Leeds and for good reason. Scoops come served in a chocolate cone, with gelato presented in the shape of a flower and the option to add on macarons. Find flavours like Banana del Brasile and Dulce de Leche here alongside more traditional choices."

"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."

"Its New York-inspired interior and state of the art DJ booth (don’t worry, it’s not blasting out tunes at 3pm in the afternoon) draw cool crowds, but there’s no doubt it’s one of Leeds’ most child-friendly bars. A warm welcome is extended to all, although their collection of 80s board games go down especially well with younger visitors. They don’t have a kids’ menu, but everything is such great value that you won’t mind one bit."

"Lovely little wine bar with outside eating area in quaint part of town and blankets provided in the winter to keep you warm. You can’t book but nice place to chill and have a drink whilst you wait for a table.www.luciawinebar.co.uk"

"Lunchtime Set Menu – Two drinks and two main courses for £20. Monday to Friday 12-4 (excludes bank hols). Lucia has recently undergone a £500,000 refurbishment in January 2020."

"Bread + Roses is without a doubt one of the best cafes in Bradford, home to bright and airy décor with cosy seating for studying while you eat. This independent gem is a vegan and vegetarian café, serving fresh, high quality food in style. Expect warming soups and healthy salads bursting with flavour – not forgetting, an impressive range of homemade vegan cakes!"

"Bread & Roses is the place to enjoy great coffee and a healthy seasonal menu, along with opportunities to work, share ideas and collaborate. The menu has lots of options including daily specials and kids options. They have vegan milk for drinks and vegan cakes."

"Indulge in one of Leeds’ biggest brunch menus whilst taking up residence in the electric and chic Ivy located in the Victoria Quarter. The vibrant and majestic interior provides the perfect setting for both special occasions and casual dining. Completely embracing the art of brunch, The Ivy has created a menu that perfects the balance between breakfast and lunch, featuring plates such as the roast beef sandwich, Keralan sweet potato curry and a wide variety of traditional brunch dishes."

"The Ivy is an eclectic restaurant where you can indulge in one of the biggest brunch menus in Leeds. They’ve truly embraced the border between breakfast and lunch, with dishes that fall on either side of the border – and you can stretch out the experience with multiple courses. Keep it traditional with Hot Buttermilk Pancakes, topped with fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, lemon balm and warm strawberry sauce, or go for something a little bit different, like their Crab Linguine."

"What: For a brunch that never fails to feel a little bit special, you can never go wrong with the Ivy. Leeds' outpost is found in the city's Victoria quarter and features all the traditional Ivy touches including brightly coloured décor and modern art a plenty. The weekend brunch menu doesn't just cover the standards such as eggs royale served with chips, but also drifts into more lunchy territory too.Where: Vicar Lane, LS1 6BB"

"From their website: ‘Our exciting, inventive and varied menus have been especially created by our experienced staff, and are La Vecchia Scuola’s distinguishing – and distinguished – culinary feature. We believe in serving only the very best in contemporary Italian cooking.’"

"05/06/2021: The restaurant is one of two we tend to visit whenever we come to York. The building and surroundings are stunning and this is a big draw. On this occasion we were put in a side room with three other tables."
