5 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Leeds
"East 59th’s jungle-like roof terrace is blessed with south-facing views over the city’s skyline, which you can take in at your leisure over dinner, and if the weather doesn’t play, you can cosy up under their heat lamps and parasols to keep warm. From the East Cheeseburger to the Seafood Platter, they have a menu of New York-inspired eats to fill your belly. Fancy something lighter?"
"The plant-covered roof terrace at East 59th is blessed with incredible south-facing views that look out over the city’s skyline, but don’t worry about moving inside when the temperature drops – they have heat lamps and blankets to keep you warm until closing time. It’s known for its extensive cocktail menu, so get ready for classic concoctions and experimental creations."
"This Trinity Leeds rooftop restaurant boasts panoramic views and sleek interiors. Alongside a variety of fine dining options and an impressive cocktail menu, Angelica transforms into a lively bar when night falls, regularly playing host to club nights, DJ sets and summertime BBQs."
"It's not hard to see why Angelica is regarded as one of Leeds' best rooftop restaurants. Along with a mouthwatering menu of fine dining dishes, a beautiful sky-high terrace and a stellar selection of cocktails, the Trinity haunt boasts enviable views across the city."
"Headrow House isn’t just one of the coolest bars in Leeds city centre – it also puts on an array of club nights. But while they might fly under the radar, they’re worth checking out. You could spend the night partying in their second-floor gig room, or go along to one of their day and night terrace parties up on the roof."
"This bar is known for always being packed, so if you're planning on going, plan ahead. To get the latest email updates from Yorkshire Live,click here."
"Headrow House has one of the biggest outdoor terraces in Leeds, set over two floors. It offers stunning views over the rooftops of the city."
"Modern British dishes and homemade charcuterie in a relaxed dining room and pub, with craft beers. The seasonal menu is split into smaller and bigger plates. The specials push the envelope a little more, emphasising the ‘modern’ in modern British cooking."
"On first glance, The Reliance looks like nothing more than a vintage chic bar, but this dine-in pub has no trouble nabbing the title of ‘best restaurant in Leeds’. The decor is comfortable, but minimalist. The service is warm, not ostentatious."
"The Man Behind The Curtain|Courtesy The Man Behind The Curtain. Ambiente Tapas Restaurant & Sherry Bar is an authentic tapas restaurant overlooking the river Aire. Situated in the historic Calls Landing building, the décor of the former warehouse retains the industrial steelwork, bare floors, and exposed brick work."
"Ambiente in the trendy riverside area of The Calls is the place to go for tapas in Leeds. Lively, vibrant and fun, with knowledgeable staff and a delicious menu. I recommend the sea bream (Dorada de Cadiz), the dessert sharing platter and the extensive wine list."

You’ll find The Roebuck just outside Otley on an empty road with no neighbours – the views are incredible as you look out across rolling hills from the terrace or the beer garden. Inside, it’s got a traditional feel with dark wooden furniture, a cosy snug and exposed vintage brickwork, but it’s been brought up to date with smart, modern touches."
"The Peace Museum, 10 Piece Hall Yard, Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD1 1PJ - Visit now. Don’t be fooled by the size of The Peace Museum, this collection of peaceful objects has a powerful message behind it and makes for fascinating exhibitions."
"The National Railway Museum in York is home to some of the country’s greatest feats of engineering, and tells the story of Britain’s railway innovation. The museum was founded in 1975 on the site of the former North York locomotive depot, where it still stands today. In the early days of locomotive transport, York was revered as the heart of the rail networks of the north."
"As we detailed above the National Railway is a free display of Rail history for both England and the world. * While it is a free exhibition you are encouraged to make a donation towards the upkeep of the museum"
"The Mercer Art Gallery in Harrogate has a collection of over 2000 19th and 20th-century fine art pieces, along with temporary exhibitions running throughout the year. There are paintings, photography, sculptures and crafts on exhibit, including displays from local artists. Open 10am to 5pm Tuesday to Saturday, 2pm to 5pm Sunday, open on Bank Holidays, closes 4pm November to March."
"In a city with the biggest student population outside of London, it would be absurd for the prevailing university culture not to have some influence on the art scene. Housed within the University of Leeds campus in the Grade II listed Art Deco Parkinson Building, The Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery showcases a mix of contemporary art as well as works from the university’s special collections department spanning over 200 years. The gallery expectedly supports and promotes its students’ and its graduates’ work, in addition to displays from local artists and those from further afield."
"You don’t have to be a student to enjoy the art of The Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery at the University of Leeds. Since 1970, it’s been home to the University Art Collection, which features ceramics, photographs and sculpture. That’s not all – you can see an incredible selection of British and European paintings, drawings and prints from 17th century to the present day."
"Kerala Restaurant is highly reputed for the tasty and authentic South Indian cuisine that they serve to all their customers and guests. Welcoming all individuals and groups even people with special dietary requirements, they serve a wide variety of dishes that would certainly whet your appetite and fit the needs and preferences that you have. They have vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes so better check their menu and order the one that is tempting your palate."
