Karen's Diner, the deliberately rude dining experience, has seen its fair share of viral diners lately.
Having opened up in Yorkshire's own Sheffield earlier this year, the themed-restaurant has a second venue in Manchester, and is expected to come to Leeds.
To give an idea of what Loiners can expect from the opening, a family who took their unsuspecting 73-year-old grandma to Karen's Diner in Manchester have gone viral with a hilarious video from their experience.
The restaurant in Prestwich is manned by deliberately rude staff, who shout and swear and poke fun at their customers, reports The Manc.
The off-guard woman was caught on camera being absolutely horrified by the abuse she received upon walking in to Karen's Diner.
A hilarious TikTok video, which has gained more than 20 million views, shows her staring around at her family with her mouth wide open, and almost falls over in horror.
But then she goes full Nan, and starts telling off the outrageously rude waiters.

In the video, Barbara is greeted by a staff member who says: "Here we go, what do you want grandma?"
After glancing back to her family members absolutely agog, she replies: "Well I'd like you to speak nicely!"
She's impolitely informed that she's 'in the wrong f***ing place for that', at which point Barbara starts to march back towards the door, shouting: "Bloody hell, who booked this?!"
There's also a brilliant moment where a Karen's Diner employee says: "Grandma, if you cry, do it in the toilets because no one gives a s**t."
Barbara also asks: "Where the hell have you brought me?"
As she's lead to her table, she turns back and scolds the staff again, saying: "You need to stop this."
"Shut the f**k up," they respond. Classic.
Once she's sat down, with an 'I remember the dinosaurs' hat jammed on her head, she soon warms up to the whole concept and starts giving back as good as she gets.
The comment section on the video has absolutely loved her trip to Karen's Diner too, with one person saying: "She looked at you like 'Are you gonna let her talk to me like that?!'"
Another wrote: "Grandma was beyond shook poor thing!"
Someone else joked: "Sis hasnt been disrespected like that her whole life."
Silver's Deli is opening up a sister shop, and this time it's about everything baked.
We all know and love Silver's Deli for their stacked subs and breakfast sandwiches that could cure any hangover no matter how severe.
They're so good, that they even bagged the coveted Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Award last year.
And rightly so, because Silver's is absolutely class.
And it seems there's just no stopping Silver's, as they've just announced that they'll be opening a sister shop named Silver's Bakehouse serving up everything, yep you guessed it, baked.
It'll also be in Farsley where the original Silver's is, and they're labelling the new venture as 'your neighbourhood bake shop'.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Silver's Deli said: "Well it’s happening. I said no more shops, but it’s kinda necessary, and I just love all things baked.
"There’s waaaaaaaaay too many details to share on this right now, but go give our sister shop @silvers_bakehouse a new follow and hold on tight. This is gonna be fun as fuck."

Customers can expect a wider range of Silver's goodies that they're unable to whip up in the current space. From soft amaretti biscuits and their famous cookies to sausage rolls and brownies that the team have been working on for 12 months.
We're in no doubt that this venture is going to be absolutely brilliant, and you best believe we'll be first in line to try one of those brownies.
Silver's Bakehouse will be located on Town Street in Farsley and is expected to open this May.

This architectural conversion has taken five years to complete and there's been no expense spared, the pulpit and pews have even been kept to really keep that churchy vibe.
Here's what the listing says: "Welcome to The Old Methodist Church, originally built in 1846 and beautifully transformed over the past five years into a truly exceptional home.
"This remarkable conversion seamlessly blends contemporary living with the building’s historic charm, creating a residence that is both striking and deeply characterful.
