From the masterminds behind Doh'hut comes Things In Bread, your new city centre sandwich shop ready to satisfy all your lunchtime cravings.
When it was announced back in September 2022 that Doh'hut were expanding into the savoury offerings, we simply could not contain our excitement.
Having eagerly awaited their opening date since then, you best believe we were first in line to sample their sandwiches when they opened last Friday.
And of course they did not disappoint, Things In Bread are serving up sandwiches the way they should be. One thing's for sure, we won't be picking up a bog standard supermarket meal deal any time soon.
Their concept is simple, classic sandwiches made to order using their signature freshly baked bread.
We spoke to the owner Tom Stafford who explained that the menu is based off your classic meal deal selection with familiar flavours such as ham and cheese, egg and cress, BLT and roast chicken salad all up for grabs.

But these sandwiches are so much more than meets the eye, the flavours are elevated to the highest degree with only the freshest ingredients used, and the sarnie artists behind the counter certainly don't skimp on the fillings.
The real star of the show though is the bread. Their signature Shokupan milk loaf is specifically designed to create the perfect sandwich: crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside and satisfyingly square. We haven't stopped thinking about that bread since we took our first delicious bite.

And it's not just lunchtime where you can get your chops around these sandwiches, stop by in the morning from 8-10am for an epic breakfast that will no doubt set you up for the day ahead.
The Full Breaky features Lishman's sausages and bacon, free range omelette and gooey American cheese which makes for a brekkie only fit for kings. They also have a vegan sausage sarnie on offer so if you're more veggie inclined, you don't have to miss out.
And of course your lunchtime fix isn't complete without a drink and a packet of crisps, which they obviously have in abundance. Pick your sandwich, your preferred bag of Pipers crisps and your drink from 'Things in Fridge', it truly is a one stop shop to make all your lunching dreams come true.

The North West’s most ordered burger has landed in Leeds, and it’s easy to see why it’s loved by so many.

The site sits right next to The Meadwood Tavern on Meanwood Road, the perfect location for if you're out and about and looking for a bit of grub after a few pints.
The interior is sporting the bright Burgerism orange, and although it is mainly a takeaway restaurant there are a few seats for sit-in.
You’ll be able to order your food at the counter, via self-service kiosks, or through click-and-collect on the Burgerism website.

Everything is made fresh to order, and even their sauces and dips are made entirely in-house.

The Meanwood site will be the sixth Burgerism site following its five openings elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
A new açai cafe promising to be Leeds’ ‘neighbourhood social club’ is opening soon
Clementine Hall
An independent açai bowl pop-up is opening a permanent cafe in Leeds city centre.
It seems the açai bowl trend isn't over just yet, and we're absolutely not mad about it.
The aesthetically purple frozen treat isn't just delicious, but is also known to have numerous health benefits making it guilt-free and the perfect post-workout pick me up.
You may remember Açai Social Club that opened as a pop-up in the Victoria Quarter last year, and now they're moving into a permanent spot in the city centre.
Run by a lovely husband and wife duo who have spent the last 15 months exploring cafes around the world, it's safe to say they know exactly what they're talking about.
Their açai is made with the very best ingredients, topped with the freshest fruit and sprinkled with their homemade granola - it doesn't get much better then that does it?
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, they said: "Açai Social Club is getting a home. Our very first store is officially on the way! We’ve been working behind the scenes to create a space that’s more about than just açai.
"What started as an idea is finally becoming something you can walk into…There’s still a lot we’re keeping under wraps for now, but we’re so excited to finally share the beginning of what’s to come.
"We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome you in. Your new neighbourhood social club, coming soon."
The exact location of the cafe and its opening date is still under wraps, but we'll of course keep you updated as and when we find out.
