Calling all students, Fleur are giving you the chance to try their infamous bottomless brunch for just half the price for a limited time only.
If you're a student and you love bottomless brunch, then you will definitely want to keep on reading.
Fleur is the first to call itself the most Instagrammable spot in Leeds, proudly stating on its website that it is the “most Instagram-friendly cafe restaurant” in the city.
As the name suggests, the theme here is floral – and they have gone all out on the aesthetic. Think cascading wisteria draping down from every spare corner of the ceiling, which is also covered in 10,000 pink and purple butterflies.
It’s also just as lush from the outside, with pink signs draped in more pink and purple flowers and flanked by large green areca palms, ferns and peace lilies.

Add in hanging spotlights hidden amongst the flowers and luminous pink neons declaring their own hashtags like #BrunchatFleurs and you’ve got yourself a proper Insta trap if ever we saw one.
But whilst we’re quite taken with the decor, we also want to talk about the brunch offering – which features the likes of pretzel bun burgers, BBQ beef brisket on toast and eggs royale with caviar.

The boozy brunch offer stretches across the entire day from 11am - 5pm and the all day brunch menu is jam packed with delicious dishes to satisfy your cravings all day long.
For just £29.95 a head, enjoy a range of dishes alongside unlimited prosecco, beer, cocktails or mocktails for a whopping 90 minutes.
Cocktails on offer include the Pink Gin Fizz, Mojito or Fruit cocktail and you can even upgrade to unlimited house white or rose wine for an extra £6.95.

Fleurs’ Autumn/Winter menu features nods to Chef Bobby Geetha’s Keralan heritage with brunch dishes such as Masala Tofu & Avocado Scramble and mains such as Kerala Salmon.
Fancy something sweet? Opt for the Belgian Waffles with Nutella and Banana to satisfy your sweet tooth, finished with a tangy berry compote and a crunchy Biscoff crumb.
With Fresher's week just around the corner, the lovely people at Fleur are offering all students 50% off their brunch when they present a valid student ID.
Chef Bobby Geetha said, “With multiple universities here, we really have missed having such a large student population due to covid the past couple of years. With restrictions no longer in place this year we know that our city is set to welcome thousands of new students and we can’t wait to give them the welcome they deserve.”
The offer is valid on the 26, 27 and 28 September 2022, between 3-4pm and for tables up to four people. Now is the perfect time to get together with your friends and enjoy one of the best bottomless brunches in the city.

One of Leeds' most loved late-night bars has announced it will be moving on from its current location after more than a decade.
Known for its eclectic party atmosphere, fabulous cocktails and fun DJs, Wax has long been a go-to spot for Leeds night owls looking for a big night.
The New Briggate bar has built up a loyal following over the years, becoming something of an institution on the city’s nightlife scene.
And now, Wax has announced that it will be moving location, bringing an end to an era at its current home at the top of town.

Taking to Instagram, Wax shared the news with its loyal customers, stating: “Wax is moving!!!
"Thats right folks, our time on New Briggate is coming to an end. For 15 years many a drink we have drunk, many a dance we have shared, many a hangover we have nursed.... so let’s keep that going in our new home.
"Don't worry you can get your OG Wax fix for the next few months. More info announced soon. See you around. X"
Of course, in classic Leeds fashion, customers flocked to the comments to express their support.
One person said: "So many memories, will forever have a very special place in my heart" whilst another expressed that "Change is good! Long live Wax Bar."
We'll keep you updated with where Wax is moving to as and when we find out, but we're sure its loyal fans will follow them wherever they go.
For now, it’s business as usual at New Briggate - so if you’ve got memories to make (or simply want one last night in the OG Wax), you’ve still got a few months to do so.
Major Leeds Festival artist cancels string of dates after losing voice

Rising rock star Violet Grohl has addressed fans after cancelling a series of sold-out gigs just hours before fans entered the venue.
The singer (who, yes, is the daughter of Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl) had been set to perform to a packed-out crowd at Band On The Wall in Manchester last night.
But just hours before doors opened, Violet announced that the show would be postponed, along with tonight’s show in Glasgow.
She said in a statement that she was ‘really f**king bummed’ to be cancelling the shows.
Violet told fans that the gigs had to be cancelled because she ‘doesn’t have a voice right now’.
She is due to perform on The Canopy stage at Leeds Festival this Friday, and its sister site Reading Festival on Sunday.
The star added ‘it pains me to make this decision’ as she officially postponed her Manchester show.
Those who had tickets will receive updated information soon, with the plan to reschedule them.
She wrote: “hey everyone. really f**king bummed to have to let yall know i’m canceling tonight and tomorrow’s shows in Manchester and Glasgow.
“i don’t have a voice right now and it pains me to make this decision, but i just can’t perform.
“we’re rescheduling these shows and everyone who bought a ticket will receive the updated info. looking forward to seeing you soon xx i’ll be back!!!”
Violet Grohl released her debut album, Be Sweet To Me, back in May, produced at the home of acclaimed producer Justin Raisen.
Her music takes influence from late 80s and early 90s rock, including Pixies, Soundgarden, Bjork, PJ Harvey, and more.
When she announced her UK tour dates, demand was so overwhelming her Manchester show was upgraded from The Deaf Institute to Band On The Wall.
