This lovely little spot is located just off Division Street in Albion Court. The decor is clean, minimal and inviting whilst the coffee has great depth of flavour and most definitely packs a punch. With outdoor courtyard seating, this is the perfect place to grab a coffee in the sunshine and catch up with friends.
They also have a selection of irresistible cakes and pastries, including a lemon meringue cronut which was absolutely heavenly. I mean, a croissant and a donut in one? How could we resist.

Tamper Coffee

Tamper Coffee is a delightful New Zealand inspired cafe who serve up fantastic coffee and a range of brunch dishes. The atmosphere is buzzing with a real community feel to it. Jungle murals line the walls whilst hanging branches fall from the industrial light fittings.
They make their coffee with their own espresso blend which they change quarterly to keep up with the seasons. If you're after food, the cajun spiced squash and corn fritters were to die for; stacked with creamy avocado and topped off with a gooey poached egg. Come in the evening for one of their Tamper espresso martinis or in the morning if you are that way inclined.

If you're looking for an Instagram-worthy picture of your coffee, then Pom Kitchen is the place for you. Bubblegum pink cups are filled with your drink of choice and then topped off with the most wonderfully extravagant toppings you can think of. Choose your coffee from the lovely staff and then get a snap of it outside the heart shaped, flower wall on their window.
Think mini eggs, cookie dough and a furry chick for an easter themed coffee and cherry lips, whipped cream and glacier cherries for a Valentines hot chocolate. The interior doesn't disappoint either with pink walls, a pink coffee machine and lots of cute gifts and trinkets that you can take home.

Popular pizza pop-up Edges Pizza has opened a permanent home in Leeds city centre.
Last summer you may have had the privilege to enjoy a slice of Edges Pizza at one of their many pop-up residencies across the city.
Their longest stint was at the sun-drenched roof terrace of Green Room, and it's safe to say their pizza went down an absolute treat.
Since then they've been a little quiet, but all for good reason. Edges Pizza has just opened a permanent new takeaway under the arches in Holbeck, and it's absolutely class.

Owners Grace and Edge who are from Harrogate opened Edges two years ago, taking inspiration from trips to New York over the years.
They've completely transformed the space into a proper love letter to the big apple. It will operate mainly as a takeaway, but there is a small seating area where you can perch and tuck into your pie.

The menu is perfectly curated, consisting of eight pizzas and three dips. And trust us, they are absolutely massive.
We opted for the American Hot with spicy pepperoni, banana peppers and parmesan as well as the mushroom pie topped with garlic creme fraiche and chestnut mushrooms.
Drizzled and dunked into moreish hot honey, it's rivalling some of the best pizza in the city.

For now, grabbing a pizza from Edges operates through a pre-order system. Pre-orders open at 12pm the day before via their website, you can pick your collection time and then you simply have to rock up and get your pizza.
There's loads of parking available nearby and if there are any remaining slots available you can pre-order up to an hour before collection.
We've got a feeling they're going to very busy indeed.
Dishoom announces official opening date for new Leeds restaurant
Clementine Hall
It's the moment we've all been waiting for, Dishoom is coming to Leeds.
The whispers of Dishoom's arrival in Leeds city centre have been going on for a while now, but over the past few weeks it has started to feel very real.
Taking over the beautiful old Flannel's site on the coveted Vicar Lane, signs started to pop up for Dishoom and work was cracking on fast.
Well now, we have an opening date - and we don't have long to wait.
Dishoom Leeds will open on Monday 3 August, with guests being able to enjoy 50% off food during an initial soft-opening period, ahead of the official opening on Friday 14 August.

As with every Dishoom café, the Leeds restaurant begins with a story. This one takes inspiration from the extraordinary true events surrounding the explosion of the SS Fort Stikine in Bombay Dock in April 1944, a wartime disaster that sent gold bars flying across the city.
Legend has it that some of the missing gold was never recovered. Some was discovered embedded in walls and rooftops across Bombay. Other pieces quietly disappeared into the hands of lucky citizens, melted into bangles or hidden away in drawers.
Dishoom Leeds reimagines the fortune made from the gold bars and guests will discover subtle references to the glamorous mid-century details through the interiors and artwork, giving playful nods to Bombay’s golden age.
With all day dining available, guests can dine on the beloved breakfast right through to late evening feasting, with the café will serve a lovingly curated menu of Bombay comfort food inspired by the city’s cafés, grills, street stalls and family kitchens.
Shamil Thakrar, co-founder, also known as Head Babu, at Dishoom, said: “Leeds is a city with tremendous warmth, creativity and character, full of people who know the value of gathering together over good food and drinks. Bringing Dishoom here has long been a dream for us.”
"The story behind this café is rooted in one of Bombay’s most extraordinary moments – the day gold bars fell from the sky after the explosion of Fort Stikine in 1944. Amidst the tragedy and chaos, there were also tales of unexpected fortune, human resilience and hopeful reinvention. We were captivated by this, and we cannot wait to welcome Leeds into the café that pays homage to the heritage of Bombay.”
