As we say a sad farewell to Braizin Squad cooking up a storm on Green Room's rooftop, it's time to say hello to someone new...
And that special someone is none other than street food royalty, Bastards Bistro.
Taking over the kitchen on Monday 23 September, these legends will be serving up everything from brunch to lunch and of course Sunday roasts for their Winter residency at one of Leeds' hottest bars.
So what can you expect to munch on then?

Well, the menu is currently top secret but we'll fill you in on a few secrets.
A few highlights on their world-inspired menu include brunch bao buns stuffed to the brim with sausage, homemade hash and a fried quail egg, probably the perfect hangover cure if you ask us.
As well as chicken gyros, pork belly banh mi's and beetroot poke bowls.
They will also be cooking up a banging Sunday roast featuring everything from braised ox cheek to roast porchetta and chicken supreme serve with all the hearty trimmings.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Bastards Bistro said: "We are pleased and very proud to announce our next residency will be at the award winning Green Room. Taking over the reins from our pals Braizin Squad as they move onto another exiting project themselves.
"Expect Brunch / Lunch / Roasts and a few exiting events to be announced at a later date! We cant wait to move into our new gaff! See you 23rd Sept ya Bastards."
It's fair to say this news has definitely made the thought of transitioning into the colder months that little bit easier, and we can't wait to try out their fantastic new menu. Alongside a couple of Green Room's signature drinks of course.
Book your spot in advance to avoid disappointment on the Green Room website here, but walk-ins, as always, will be welcomed too.
The frozen yoghurt craze is on its way to Leeds as Kefiyo is set to open in Headingley in just a few days.
It's a phenomenon that has caught the attention of the TikTok and Instagram girlies as of late, with frozen yoghurt bars popping up in Manchester and going viral online.
The ice cold sweet treat is supposedly 'healthy' and with a slogan of 'eat Clean. feel Light. live Better.' - this new spot in Leeds seems to be going down that route too.
Kefiyo will be opening in the old Sixes site on Ash Road in Headingley, and they've just announced that they'll be soft launching this Sunday 19 April 2026.
The space is already sporting a super cute pastel green and pink exterior, and it's exactly matching the aesthetic that you'd expect with froyo.
Kefiyo will offer a range of frozen yoghurt flavours with a whole bunch of toppings for you to customise to your tastebuds, as well as fresh acai bowls.
Situated slap bang in the centre of Headingley, we've got a feeling it'll be very busy with students on their way to their morning lecture or at night for those looking for a sweet treat that doesn't feel too naughty.
We'll keep you updated on more Kefiyo updates as and when we find out.
But in the meantime, you can keep an eye on their socials here. We'll see you soon for a scoop Leeds.
Cult favourite burger chain Burgerism is officially coming to Leeds this summer
Clementine Hall
An award-winning burger chain is coming to one of Leeds' suburbs.
If you don't know Burgerism, then get to know.
The Manchester-based burger chain is known by many for its incredible smash patties and quick, reliable service.
Their concept is simple: good burgers made with quality ingredients and cooked fresh to order. Delicious.
And it's not just burgers, they've also got some great wings and fries available too with a range of homemade sauces on offer for dunking, drizzling and devouring. We're a particular fan of the buffalo wings with their garlic ranch dip.
The chain used to have a dark kitchen on the outskirts of the city where people could order via Deliveroo, however this closed down and since then there's been a Burgerism-shaped hole left in our foodie scene.

Burgerism recently applied to move into a vacant shop unit in Meanwood at 605 Meanwood Road, seeking change-of-use planning permission for the former Papa Johns site which was previously only allowed to serve...well, pizzas.
And the plans have now been approved, which means Burgerism will officially be coming to Leeds. Hurray!
Burgerism's new takeaway will be walking distance from the The Meanwood Tavern, perfect for those looking for some post-pint burgers.
It will be strictly takeaway with no dine-in option available.
The brand-new Burgerism will employ 15 people from the local area with food being served between 11am and 11pm.
We'll keep you up to date as and when we find out more, but for now we're aware that Burgerism Leeds is set to open this summer.
