Leeds restaurant named amongst happiest places to work in the UK by industry experts

What an achievement.

CODE Hospitality has announced its Happiest Places to Work list, and one Leeds indie has made the list.

The inaugural list follows on from the success of CODE’s Happiness in Hospitality survey, first established in 2018.

The twenty two businesses that made the list represent the UK hospitality sector at its most progressive and people-focused.

The businesses were recognised for setting new standards in employee welfare and making their values and practices as important as their food and drink offering.

One of Leeds’ newest indies, The Empire Cafe, made the list – and to be honest it comes as no surprise.

Coming to Leeds just over a year ago, The Empire Cafe is now a firm foodie favourite and knowing that the staff there are as happy as Larry makes it even better.

Known for their incredible rotisserie chicken, innovative small plates and delicious cocktails – it’s not only a happy place to work but a very happy place to enjoy a meal too.

CODE founder, Adam Hyman, said: “Evolving our Happiness in Hospitality into Happiest Places to Work is part of our continued commitment at CODE to making hospitality a better place to work.

“We can all learn something from the 22 businesses in this year’s list and it’s a pertinent reminder that people will always be at the heart of hospitality.”
