Vegans still want bottomless brunch- despite the limited options in Leeds.
Just because you're a vegan doesn't mean you should miss out on a bottomless brunch experience on the weekend. We all deserve to enjoy free flowing booze whilst indulging on some delicious food, right?
Whether you're just dipping your toes into the plant-based world or you're a longtime vegan looking for bottomless brunch options that include your dietary requirements (because it's surprising how many bottomlesses aren't vegan friendly), we've got you covered.
Here's our top bottomless brunches in Leeds with vegan options.

On one of the instagrammable bottomless brunch menus around, the vegan Fox Farm brekkie is the dish of dreams for anyone with a plant-based diet. Think Beetroot Falafel, hummus, fresh avocado, wilted spinach, sauteed mushrooms, braised beans, hash brown served with freshly baked sourdough. The ninety minute experience costs £34 per person and comes with one brunch dish of your choice and free-flowing Prosecco throughout.
Leeds newest bottomless brunch also comes with plenty of vegan options. Think sweetcorn ribs with red pepper, tomato and jalapeño salsa; carrot, shallot and butter bean salads with dill and toasted pumpkin seeds and a pulled BBQ jackfruit taco with sweetcorn relish, all washed down with unlimited porn star martinis and Long Island iced tea cocktails. Bottomless brunch is available every Saturday and Sunday between 2pm and 6pm, priced at £34.95 per head.
Running for 90 minutes, the bottomless offer at Cuckoo is priced at £20 for unlimited beer and prosecco but it can be upgraded to include cocktails like the Quackiri, raspberry Lynchburg and fruit punch for another £5. On the food menu, the vegan version of the 'Brunch at Cuckoo’ pizza, which comes loaded with vegan sausage,baked beans, mushrooms and red or brown sauce is on offer, or opt for the 'Alright Jack', made from pulled BBQ jackfruit, vegan cheese, gherkins and mustard.
Choose from either the Vegan Breakfast, consisting of Quorn sausage, grilled tomato, mushrooms, spiced black beans and spinach and served with toast or the Avocado Brunch: artisan sourdough toast topped with homemade guacamole, mango salsa and diced plum tomato, with a drizzle of olive oil and cracked black pepper at Revs de Cuba for a vegan bottomless. Plus, every last Sunday of the month, the bar and restaurant will welcome the soulful New Freedom Gospel group down for an afternoon of uplifting gospel tunes to serenade your boozy experience.
The most instagrammable bottomless brunch in Leeds does come with a vegan option and it sounds delicious. The #BreakfastBowl is a berry smoothie bowl with banana, nutty granola, Soy yoghurt and Chia seeds is picture perfect, and nutritious too. Available as a bottomless with cocktails, mocktails or Prosecco (each priced differently), the boozy brunch offer stretches across most of the day, broken into two sessions: the first running from 10.30 am to 2.30 pm, the second from 4 – 8 pm.
Mans Market is the only place to go for a Chinese with a difference in Leeds and luckily, vegans can enjoy their bottomless too. The Brunch Box included in the deal comes with a choice of black bean and pepper dishes, one of which is tofu based. Although vegans will have to skip the Dim Sum sharers, it'll only give you more time to down the bottomless fizz or bottles of house lager in your two hour sitting. Plus, you can upgrade to bottomless bellinis and cocktails if you're feeling left out for £5 or £10 respectively.
Because one Fern Modern Sushi wasn't enough, we've now got two.
And guess what? It's even better than the first.
Fern Modern Sushi located in the unassuming Central Arcade has become a firm foodie favourite after opening just a couple years ago.
Run by the wonderful Chef Fern, who you could say is somewhat of a local celebrity at this point, the restaurant is known for serving delicious sushi with the freshest fish possible and traditional Japanese dishes with modern flair.

Full with hungry punters no matter the time of day, it's no surprise that Chef Fern has just opened Fern Modern Sushi 2.0 on Park Row.
This beautiful new space is serving up all the classic Fern dishes, from stacked donburi bowls and perfectly rolled sushi to miso glazed cod and hearty bowls of ramen.

Different for this location, though, is their exclusive cocktail menu - so you can wine and dine to your heart's content.
The interior has also levelled up, complete with a huge open kitchen so you can pull up a chair and eat whilst watching the magic happen.

And this isn't all that Chef Fern is up to, after opening Tori Nori on Vicar Lane a few months ago this will be her third restaurant in the city centre, and that is no easy feat.
She's even got another restaurant imminently opening in the Central Arcade which will be focused on traditional katsu dishes, and we wouldn't be at all surprised if she had something else lined up in the pipeline.

Fern Modern Sushi 2.0 officially opens on 19 November, but is open now for soft launch with limited bookings.
A pub in Leeds has been crowned the third best in Britain by The Good Food Guide
Clementine Hall
A Leeds pub has been crowned one of the very best in the country by The Good Food Guide.
The trusted guide has just released its 100 Best Pubs in Britain list, and we're very chuffed with the results indeed.
Taking the coveted number three spot is our very own The Highland Laddie, a 100-year-old city centre institution that reopened in April 2025 in the hands of new owners Sam Pullan and Nicole Deighton.
These guys also run the Empire Cafe, so you just know it's going to be good.
Last year they soared straight to the top of the list and were crowned the best pub in the whole of Britain by the guide.

This time, the Queen's Arms over in Eccles came number one followed by The Cow in Notting Hill.
We still think bagging third place is quite the achievement, and if you've visited The Highland Laddie yourself you'll know just how much of a special place it is.
Don't just take our word for it, The Good Food Guide labelled the Laddie as 'a true pub with a genuine community vibe'.
They also said: "Reenergised by the team behind the Empire Cafe in 2025, this is everything that a proper English pub should be – 'oh, and they have a mustard menu!'
"Inside, the Laddie ticks all the boxes, preserving the essentials of a traditional old-school boozer and maintaining a genuine sense of community while letting the good times roll. As for the food, it’s ‘both high-end and accessible’, pulling in ideas from all over, whether you fancy a freshly shucked Lindisfarne oyster, a keema toastie or an elevated ham roll with bread cooked over the coals.
"Dig deeper and you might find a lobster madeleine with Yorkshire chorizo butter, a treacle onion tart or pork schnitzel with two fried eggs. Club steaks are served by the inch, there’s no creative let-up when it comes to sides, and the nostalgia is ramped up with the likes of strawberry and Champagne trifle with ‘sprinkles’.
"But never forget that this is a self-proclaimed ‘drinkers’ pub’ dispensing everything from ‘properly served’ British brews and ’the best Guinness in Leeds’ to a staggering line-up of whisky optics."
