This autumn wreath-making event in Oakwood, Leeds is perfect for those searching for an intimate, autumnal afternoon full of crafts and fun.
After all, wreaths are officially no longer just for Christmas. Tones of bright orange, red and pastel yellows can brighten up any doorway in autumn, too, as the organisers of this autumnal workshop know all too well.
Always most fulfilling when they’re created by hand, you can now embrace your inner wreath-making creativity by making your own at Tasty Kitchen and Coffee in Oakwood this October.
Join BlumenKind’s autumn wreath-making workshop on Thursday 7 October and handcraft your own design that will give your neighbours‘ some serious front door envy.
Ticketholders will be invited into Tasty Kitchen and Coffee at 7 pm and find nibbles, fizz and an expert teacher on hand to guide them through the process.
The cosy cafe will provide the perfect backdrop to the event, but if you need any extra leaves to complete your design, take advantage of its mesmerising location. One of the UK’s ‘most beautiful parks, Roundhay Park, is just footsteps away and filled with crunchy, falling leaves.
There are only twelve places available to keep the workshop intimate and friendly, so the café is inviting guests to book their tickets on Eventbrite early to avoid disappointment.
Tasty Kitchen and Café is usually open 9 am until 4.30 pm every day. The family-friendly café offers guests a choice of traditional British lunches, like paninis and cold sandwiches or flavours from across the world, including falafel or halloumi salads, Texan-inspired burgers and mouth-watering grilled cheese sandwiches.
The Street Angels Burger is a house speciality, not just because of its double beef patties, but because £1 of every burger sold goes to Leeds charity ‘Homeless Street Angels’
Wash their tempting treats down with a healthy energising coconut milkshake or try Tasty’s selection of sweet shakes made from ice cream and topped with either fudge, popcorn or pretzels.
Orders can also be delivered to selected Leeds addresses, so you don’t even need to leave the house to try these delicious delights.
Tasty Kitchen and Café host intimate events, business meetings and barbecues throughout the year, so why not use the Autumn Wreath Making Workshop as an opportunity to grab a first glimpse at what may become your next meeting spot?
Silver's Bakehouse is finally here, and it's just as fabulous as we'd hoped.
Just when you thought Leeds’ favourite sandwich spot couldn't get any better, they go and open a bakery.
Silver's Bakehouse has opened its beautiful pastel green doors today over in Farsley to queues of excited fans eager to get their first taste.
So, what's on offer at Silver's Bakehouse?

Well, as masterminds of the almighty sandwich you'll be happy to know you can still get one here. However, their iconic sub sarnies have had an Italian makeover and are now served in fresh, springy sourdough which is baked onsite.
Elsewhere on the menu you'll find brown butter buttermilk brownies (try saying that three times), a range of delicious cookies, sausage rolls, soft amaretti biscuits and Dark Arts tiramisu.
There's also a fab selection of Italian drinks on offer in a swanky new fridge, as well as a coffee menu so you can pick a brew to go hand in hand with your chosen baked good.

The interior is just as gorgeous, complete with yellow walls, red tiles and a mirror hanging above the baker's table so you can really see all the magic happen.
And trust us, it is magic.
There's a couple of benches outside so you can plonk yourself in the sunshine to enjoy your sarnie, which is what we'll be doing in this glorious bank holiday sunshine.

You can really tell this is a proper labour of love, and Chris and the team have done a cracking job of keeping that Silver's spirit in there.
Go and say hello to congratulate them on this fabulous new opening, it's a great addition to Farsley and the Leeds foodie scene.

Boyband and radio hitmakers The Script are coming to Leeds and are playing out alongside an equally big support act.
'For the First Time' in almost a year, The Script are playing a run of live shows across the UK including Leeds' First Direct Arena.
This Irish-based band have soundtracked generations with their hits spanning two decades including 'Hall of Fame', 'Breakeven', 'Superheroes' and more.
Consisting of lead vocalist Danny O'Donoghue with Benjamin Seargent on bass, guitarist Ben Weaver and drummer Adam Marcello, their music fuses pop and rock.
The Script has released three albums that have topped both UK and Ireland charts as well as four Top 10 singles and they're hoping to reign supreme on the charts once more with upcoming LP The User's Guide to Being Human.
Although the full album doesn't drop until August, Danny and the rest of the lads have dropped a single titled 'Man In The Arena'.
There's even a nod to the Northern music scene on the tracklist as one of the upcoming releases is labelled 'The Crowd Was Singing Wonderwall'.
Other tracks on this LP include 'Living Our Life Without Me', 'I'm 100 Different People' and a song that's sure to get a few tears out of all of us - 'Grow Old with Grace'.
As well as announcing this new run of shows set for Winter 2026, The Script are joining Take That on a stadium tour titled The Circus Live across June and July.
