You can choose from doner, chicken, seekh and lamb shish – they’ll stuff it in a pitta or pile it on chips before sprinkling it with salad and smothering it in sauce. But if that isn’t your bag, you can also tuck into a menu of burgers, pizza and chicken."

"The botanical beauty of The Pickled Sprout is an Instagram favourite hotspot. Sprawled out on the lawn are tables and chairs set to dine alfresco and dip into drinks till the sun goes down.

Their beer garden is the stuff of legend – big, grassy and filled with benches, each with their own umbrella. You can also book space on their heated patio or in their heated marquee."

"A longtime favourite of Leeds’ nightlife, Aire Bar has a nice little spot by the River Aire on The Calls. Delve into the iconic arched rooms, grab a drink at the bar and head out onto the overhanging terrace for a close up of the waterfront. They have a range of local breweries on tap, such as Ilkley, Ossett and Saltaire, that will go down a storm on their balcony, and if you get peckish, Yorkshire Burgaire Company will sort you out."

"For a restaurant by the river in Leeds, it's over to Aire Bar, the charming eatery housed in a Grade-II listed building with sights of the water. Its vibe is pretty cool and casual, which is great for a catch-up with mates - though we can find any excuse to work through their burger menu."

"Silver Vase is the stand out Chinese takeaway in Chapel Allerton. They don’t reinvent the rulebook, it’s just classic dishes done well. Start with Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings, Prawn Toast or Chicken & Sweetcorn Soup, before you choose from a heaving menu of mains."

"Maxi’s restaurant has been open for more than 20 years, and it has experienced chefs from China and Hong Kong who prepare authentic Peking and Cantonese cuisine. If you are a meat lover, this is one of the best options for you, as they serve dishes such as roast suckling pig, soya sauce chicken, Peking roast duck, char sui, and beef chow fun. However, there are also vegetarian and seafood dishes on the menu."
