Leeds was voted fifth best in the country for its variety of bottomless brunch.
According to a study from www.bottomlessbrunch.com, vegetarians aren't fed too badly when it comes to a boozy session with friends and family- but there are plenty of cities that do it better than us in all bottomless servings.
In first place, Sheffield received a whopping 76/110, followed by Manchester with a respectable score of 62/100- both of which are only an hour away from Leeds city centre by train.
Whilst there may be more of a variety out of town, that doesn't mean that Leeds' version of a veggie or vegan bottomless isn't full of stand-out favourites, delicious dishes and meat-free offerings that make even the most devout carnivore jealous.
Taking the top spot in Leeds is Issho, with a 50% of all bottomless options coming as a vegetarian serving. Expect authentic Japanese sushi, bao buns and delectable finger food with free-flowing Prosecco available every week from one of Leeds' most stunning rooftop bars: a must-try for anyone searching for a veggie-friendly experience.

Issho was closely followed by Taag: an Italian that offers three different bottomless brunches across the weekend. Starting with an Italian feast at their bottomless Friday night serving, dance to throwback tunes on Saturdays with bottomless vodka and classic dishes and tuck into a bottomless Sunday roast to finish off the week- there's plenty to choose from. If that's not enough, a solid 44.44% of their foodie portions are vegetarian too.
In third place, a bottomlessbrunch.com favourite, Cuckoo's bargain bottomless comes as a £20 deal with unlimited pizza slices and beer towers. The unique menu has a whopping 40% as vegetarian options and allows you to eat and drink with unlimited servings.
In joint third, The Adelphi offers the same 40% meat-free, whilst Neighbourhood's bottomless roast makes it on to the leaderboard in fifth place with still over a third of all menu items available as vegetarian-friendly dishes.

Everyone's in love with frozen yoghurt, and Leeds is about to get more of it.
Over the past year, the UK has become a little bit obsessed with frozen yoghurt - and Leeds is no exception.
We've had Kefiyo open in Headingley which met to queues round the block for weeks, as well as the UK's leading froyo brand Frurt open up in Kirkstall.
And now, there's a newbie on the block.

Introducing 'Yo-Go', your newest frozen yoghurt bar that will be opening up in Leeds' Hyde Park.
We don't know much about Yo-Go yet, but we do know it's female owned and is sporting some pretty cute branding.
The space is currently undergoing renovation, with the owner posting that she received the keys just a couple of days ago.
The window vinyls are up, and people are already getting very excited about the opening as they flock to the comments of Yo-Go's first Instagram post.
Announcing the news of their opening, Yo-Go wrote: "GUYS!! WE’VE GOT THE KEYS. And apparently they don’t come with a finished shop… rude.
"While we get to work, we need your input. Toppings, flavours, very specific requests, we’re taking notes. Drop them below and I’ll try my best to make it happen x"
Comments included requests for 'unlimited toppings' as well as warm sauces, cookie dough, marshmallow and honeycomb.
Sounds pretty delicious if you ask us, but for now, it looks like there's still some work to be done before the shop is ready to welcome its first customers.
We don't know of an opening date just yet, but we'll keep you updated as and when we do.
Inside the new all-day American diner that has just opened at Leeds Bradford Airport

A brand-new American-style diner serving smash burgers, hot dogs and thick milkshakes has opened at Leeds Bradford Airport.
We all know the holiday really starts as soon as you get to the airport, and Leeds Bradford Airport has a brand-new American diner to kick start it in style.
Welcome to Monty’s American Diner, the all-day dining destination bringing a taste of the USA to Yorkshire.
Located in the airport's departure lounge, this new spot is designed to give passengers somewhere to sit back and relax whilst enjoying a proper meal before jetting off.

Early flight? Breakfast is available until 11am with options including fluffy waffles, French toast bites, chicken and waffles drenched in maple syrup as well as traditional cooked breakfasts and American-style bagels.
Those travelling later in the day can tuck into smash burgers, chicken wings, loaded hot dogs, gooey mac and cheese and even a BBQ platter complete with ribs, corn and wings.
There’s also a menu specifically designed for the little ones, featuring waffles, beans on toast and scrambled eggs on toast, alongside burgers, chicken tenders and mac and cheese throughout the day.
And if you fancy a drink before take-off, because it wouldn't be a trip to the airport without a tipple, Monty’s has that covered too.
There's freshly poured pints on offer as well as cocktails, or you can have the proper American experience with a 'hard shake' - their classic thick milkshakes but made boozy.
