There's just something about eating possibly the best steak of your life from a takeaway box that feels both dirty and decadent at the same time."

"There’s not one, but two roof terraces to choose from at Headrow House. They’re both massive, so you’ll never struggle to socially distance. The upper terrace, Kennedy Meadows, offers incredible views across the city’s rooftops, while the lower terrace has plenty of cosy corners to settle down in."

"Get a serious dose of Italian family hospitality at Bibis Italianissimo, the Leeds restaurant where children are treated like royalty. All the classics are offered on their special Bambini menu, from pizzas to bolognese, and they all come in at under £5. The art deco-style dining room gives the experience a hint of glitz and glamour, but this is a lively joint so you needn’t worry about your airs and graces."
