"Fettle is a brilliant find if you’re looking for somewhere to have brunch in Leeds. On the weekend, the Scandinavian-inspired cafe has a special all-day menu that bridges the gap between breakfast and lunch.

"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."
