"Another small spot (it might be worth booking ahead) with mouth-watering vegetarian food, Roots & Fruits has been a favourite of vegetarians in Leeds for 25 years, tucked inside the beautiful Grand Arcade. Choose from a variety of classic dishes such as veggie lasagne, falafel or a variety of vegetarian burgers, alongside a rotating array of specials and the taste medley of the jerk jackfruit. If you’re not feeling particularly peckish, this is also a great spot to pop in for a light bite or a delicious cake and a cup of coffee."
"This versatile veggie restaurant serves up tempting vegan dishes including nachos with chilli and vegan cheese and a full-on cooked breakfast with scrambled tofu and vegan sausages."
"This Gujarati restaurant is a favourite amongst Leeds vegetarians thanks to their authentic take on West Indian cuisine. Experience on their exciting thalis (perfect for trying an assortment of different curries) or opt for a delicious vegetable or pulse based dish served with a selection of traditional side dishes. If you’re not sure what to pick, opt for the Hansa’s surprise and let the kitchen bring out an array of starters, mains and deserts for you to try for just £20 per person for a party of four."
"Since opening in 1986, Hansa’s has rightly affirmed itself as one of the best Indian restaurants in Leeds. With a range of accolades and rave reviews, it is renowned for its clever Gujarati vegetarian cooking. The Gujurati dishes combine intense flavours, strong spices and fresh ingredients, giving Hansa’s its reputation, which has even resulted in a cookery school and a cookbook."
"Hansa’s, an Indian restaurant, has cemented itself in Leeds’ culinary scene since its opening in 1986. Earning rave reviews and winning many awards, it is renowned for clever Gujarati vegetarian cooking and intense flavours. Indeed, such is its reputation that Hansa’s has broadened its portfolio by providing a cookery school and a cookbook."
"In the near centre of Wakefield sits the magnificent Wakefield Cathedral, or the even grander title of the Cathedral Church of All Saints in Wakefield. Although we owe the Victorians for Wakefield Cathedral’s current appearance, restored and reopened in 1888, it has been a place of worship since the 9th-century, and has even been mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1086. Today, anyone can come and have an informal, 45 minute tour of this historic cathedral, with no booking required and completely free!"
"Another incredibly old building, Wakefield Cathedral is the tallest church in Yorkshire and has a long and fascinating history. Although it has been developed and rebuilt at various points over the past 900 years, the building which exists today dates back to the 14th century. Its 247-foot tall spire is visible from many of the suburbs of Wakefield and even beyond on a clear day."
