Federal, one of the most popular brunch spots in Manchester, is set to open its very first Leeds cafe.
The Australian/New Zealand-style cafe is famed for its brunches, ranging from giant French toast stacks to colourful corn fritters, and halloumi and shrooms on toast – as well as their viral canned matchas and iced lattes.
There’s a Portuguese influence on the menu too, thanks to founder Claudio Ribeiro, with some of the best pastel de natas in the UK.
Federal Cafe Bar is wildly popular over in Manchester, where it has three cafes that all have queues all day long.
And now it’s finally Leeds’ turn, with plans lodged for a new Federal in the city centre.
Federal is set to open at 34 Boar Lane, as part of a contemporary new Kinrise workspace that’s taking shape.
The plans for Federal were announced alongside The Commons, a new business space with studios, a large boardroom, meeting rooms and event spaces.
George Aberdeen, co-founder and director of landlord and developer Kinrise, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Federal Bar & Cafe, opening their first location outside Manchester on our ground floor, a real statement of confidence in the building and in Leeds.”
Victoria Harris, associate with global property consultancy Knight Frank in Leeds, which is advising Kinrise, added: “The launch of The Commons and the arrival of Federal underline the on-going success of 34 Boar Lane and is another resounding endorsement of the major investment Kinrise has made in the building.”
