Best Gelato in Saxton

"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."

"At Crepe Affaire, it’s all about traditional French pancakes. Expect a host of classic combinations, both sweet and savoury, like cinnamon or hunter’s chicken. But it’s their more creative options that demand your attention."

"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."

"Ice Scoop Gelato is one of the best places for ice cream in Leeds. They have a slew of flavours, all made in house on the day, like Ferrero Rocher and Kinder Bueno. If you fancy something a little bit adventurous go for the salted caramel, or how about one that’s a bit fruity?"

"Last but not least is something a bit different, and a must-try for all of you with a sweet tooth. My Cookie Dough is a cookie dough stand in Trinity Shopping Centre, but they also do takeaway and delivery. Whilst they offer boxes for you to bake yourself, we’d recommend the fresh cookie dough boxes which come warm (or cold, should you choose an ice cream)."

"At the heart of Coppergate Shopping Centre take a break from shopping at this lovely ice cream kiosk. With a choice of at “least eight flavours daily” and also milkshakes and coffee to choose from, this is an oasis amidst the busyness of the city centre. St Mary’s Square, Coppergate, York, YO1 9NT"

"Sweet Puffs is a delivery-only bakery that specialises in Greek-style donut puffs. Their round, bite-sized balls are delightfully crisp on the outside and wonderfully soft on the inside. All made fresh to order, their speciality is a traditional Greek combo, drenched with lashings of honey and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar."

"First things first, Neighbourhood has some great photo spots, so aspiring Instagram influencers, get yourselves booked in!. For bottomless brunch, guests can choose from gin, vodka, prosecco, beer and seasonal cocktails, which is an amazing selection of drinks and will ensure that you can find something you like!. The food menu is equally fab, and with yummy offerings like Charred Asparagus Sushi available, it’s perfect if you want options outside of the usual Leeds bottomless brunch choices."

"What: If you like your brunch served with a side of fries and as much gin, vodka, prosecco, beer and cocktails as you fancy, Leeds’ Neighbourhood Restaurant should be on your hit list. Edgy interiors, which include graffitied walls, pink banquette seating and neon signs also help with that buzzy weekend vibe, while dishes such as avocado on toast and eggs royale will keep you satisfied. Where: 5 Greek Street, Leeds, LS1 5SX"

"Outside their flash Greek Street restaurant, Neighbourhood’s outdoor area promises afternoon sun and Insta-worthy food. There’s a canopy along the building, to offer shelter from the elements, but if it’s sun you want, there’s plenty of space. They offer a menu of New Yorkshire inspired eats, from fresh sushi rolls to crispy pulled duck lollipops and teriyaki glazed salmon."

"You can do brunch every day until 4pm at any of Manahatta’s three Leeds bars. Their menu is small but perfectly formed – you can have a traditional full English or go for something a little bit different, like their High Line, which sees a trio of pancakes topped with fried chicken, bacon and maple syrup. On the weekend, you can go bottomless between 11am and 3pm – enjoy unlimited prosecco, Aperol Spritz, Bloody Marys or Coors for £25.95."

"What: Bottomless brunch at this massive party bar is so popular it’s available every day of the week!. Choose from a selection of classic brunch dishes, including buttermilk pancakes with Nutella, toasted hazelnuts and cream; smashed avocado and poached egg on a toasted English muffin; and a full English, and get stuck into as many proseccos, Bloody Marys, Coors' or Aperol Spritzes as you like.Where: 11 Merrion St, Leeds, LS1 6PG"

"Manahatta do their pancakes a little bit differently, so if you want to try something new this is the place to go. If you like them sweet, you can top yours with a mix of Nutella, toasted hazelnuts and cream. But they do savoury pancakes too – the High Line gets you three buttermilk pancakes with fried chicken, bacon and maple syrup."

"Encouraging guests to eat, drink and be merry, Fettle is known for its passion for bringing together good food and great company. Brunchers can enjoy a relaxing and organic experience whilst absorbing the picturesque surroundings of Great George Street. This Scandinavian inspired cafe is proud to support its local community in every way possible, serving quality food that has been locally sourced."

"This Scandinavian-inspired little cafe is a little off the beaten path, but Fettle is well worth seeking out. It’s a bright airy space with long wooden benches and cool light fittings. Grab a cup of Limini coffee, a special Ippuku Japanese tea or one of the special brew teas from Jeeves and Jericho, before poring over their food menu."

"Cosy and laidback, this organic café is a hotspot for quality, locally-sourced food. Open for early breakfast, brunch, and evening meals, guests can expect everything from fresh pastries to pork Wellington."

"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."

"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"

"The Ivy Leeds do a Saturday and Sunday Brunch (and bank holidays). The restaurant itself is a beautiful art deco inspired space. With options like Truffle Arancini, Zucchini fritti, Eggs Benedict and Avocado Benedict, as well as Hot Buttermilk Pancakes for those (like me) with a sweet tooth!"
