29 Things You Need To Eat In Leeds
"This summer will bring another rooftop dining destination to the city in the form of this glamourous Manhattan-style bar and grill opening in Victoria Gate in July. Guests can enjoy al fresco dining from the delicious US-themed menu, along with indulgent brunches, and bask in an authentic taste of New York in the heart of Leeds. Visit: 46 Victoria Street, LS2 7AU"
"If you’re looking for a Sunday brunch with friends, East 59th is doubtless the best option in the city. The rooftop restaurant and bar is located on the third floor of Victoria Gate shopping centre. East 59th brings you contemporary dining in a sophisticated Manhattan-style restaurant."
"East 59th is one of Leeds' swankiest rooftop restaurants and bars, offering views of the city's gorgeous architecture including the historic Kirkgate Market. Grab a space on their outdoor terrace for jaw-dropping vistas, boujee brunch plates, and NYC-inspired cocktails come nightfall."
"What: The sixth floor of Leeds' Trinity Centre might not be where you would expect to find a brilliant brunch, but D&D's Angelica serves exactly that. This isn't the place to go if you're looking for a slap-up brunch as this is very much a stylish restaurant rather than a casual café. However, if you are in the market for something a little bit classy, Angelica's menu features everything from a crayfish and brown butter crumpet to buttermilk banoffee pancakes.Where: Level 6, Trinity Centre, 70 Boar Lane, LS1 6HW"
"Trinity Leeds, Albion Street, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS1 5ER. Boasting panoramic views of the city, this sixth-floor D&D-owned restaurant/bar was made for celebrating. Swanky modern interiors go hand-in-hand with a menu full of international favourites spanning brunch to dinner."
"A classy rooftop bar, make your way to Trinity and head six storeys up. Said to boast sophisticated cocktails, the atmosphere here is a calm one and again has some picture-perfect views."
"The first promises long benches, collapsible parasols and overhead heaters, with a toe-tapping soundtrack provided by live DJs. The second is another floor up, with a mix of covered huts and open benches ripe for the picking. This is craft beer heaven, so expect local and global favourites."
"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."
"Sitting on the banks of the River Aire, Water Lane Boathouse has gone to great lengths to get the best gin they can find. They have a wide range of well-known names, each of which have their own tonic and garnish. Try Pink Rives with Mediterranean tonic, strawberry and basil or Caorunn with tonic, red apple and raspberries – they’re perfect for sitting out in that impressive waterside beer garden under the sunshine."
"From the same team behind Headrow House comes Waterlane Boathouse. With canal-side views and a sprawling cobbled beer garden, there are few better places to catch the rays than this stunning spot. With a vast array of beers, wines and cocktails, and a menu of wood-fired pizzas and mouthwatering burgers."
"With a range of craft beers from all over the UK, Water Lane Boathouse knows a thing or two about ice-cold summer sips. Perched on the edge of the canal, this gorgeous space is the perfect place to soak up a few rays with a pint in hand."
"You can play all the games you loved as a kid at 'Press Start Gaming Zone' which is based above MEATliquor. The Leeds city centre attraction is kitted up with 16 consoles and arcade machines. You’ll find classics such as the Sega Mega Drive, Nintendo SNES, GameCube, N64 and various generations of PlayStations and Xbox consoles."
"It has five different spaces on offer to guests, one of which is their incredible, and lesser-known, rooftop terrace. The terrace also stays open until 4 am, making it the perfect place to spend the early hours of the morning after a heavy night drinking. The bar on the terrace is fairground-themed, too, and you have to access it via a funky potting shed."
"Another Leeds Bradford airport hotel with parking included is the Britannia Leeds Bradford Airport Hotel. Only a measly 6 minute drive, this Leeds airport hotel is a great affordable overnight stay for families, couples or even businesspeople. There are many facilities on-site such as a restaurant which serves up a full English every morning, a café bar with a great range of beverages."
"Japanese Eringi mushroom in a garlic miso, our current seasonal veg dish #japanesefood #york #japanesekitchen #mushrooms #vegan @visityork. There is no better place to savor the tasty goodness of Japanese food than this charming restaurant. Ippuku Tea House offers a wide variety of sumptuous authentic Japanese-style food, drinks, and, of course, tea."
"Serving up modern but authentic Japanese home-style food and drink, this is one not to be missed. This would be a perfect place to visit with friends or family, and share dishes and chat over good food. The fluffy pancakes are a must-try!"
"Head here for the most beautiful, fluffy pancakes in York, and potentially the world. I’d recommend the Matcha pancakes with whipped cream and berries. Get single stack though, they’re huge!"
