New cafe-bar where you can buy the furniture to open in Leeds

The interior design cafe-bar concept is moving into 34 Boar Lane in late autumn.

The Collective, a unique interior design and cafe-bar concept, is opening at 34 Boar Lane in Leeds city centre this autumn.

Inspired by the Los Angeles art scene, the brand-new venue is being fitted with high-quality furnishings and tableware which are all for sale – with a wide range of drinks and light refreshments available to order. 

Movable bookcases at The Collective will also provide cosy corners to work from; well as spaces for meetings, events and workshops.

34 Boar Lane – which is already home to several businesses – has recently undergone an architectural transformation, and The Collective is taking a 1,819 sq ft unit on the ground floor with space for 42 covers.

Recruiting is now underway for roles at the cafe, with a total of 16 jobs being created.

Ellen Pryce of The Collective described the venue as “a space to refuel, unwind and discover”. 

She added: “[The Collective] will provide our guests with an immersive experience that encourages them to quite literally buy into our brand.

“We have worked hard to source some amazing British companies that produce high-quality hand-crafted furnishings and tableware and it’s exciting that we can allow our guests to really fall in love with the pieces before they order them for their own home.

“The large majority of everything you see in The Collective will be available to purchase, from the sofas and modern art, to the tables, chairs and even the kitchenware. 

“The food and drinks will match the curated interiors with an instagram-worthy menu of healthy brunch and lunch options, incredible coffees and classic cocktails.”

George Haddo, co-founder of Kinrise who own 34 Boar Lane, said: “It is very exciting to welcome such an innovative and imaginative company like The Collective to 34 Boar Lane. They are the perfect fit for our very special building, where we are creating a collaborative environment that offers our occupiers high-quality office floors, small studios or co-working desks.

“Our aim is to turn iconic but unloved buildings into creative work and community spaces. It means that the city’s heritage and soul lives on for the future and real cultural capital remains in the centre rather than being pushed further out of cities.”

Current occupants of 34 Boar Lane include recruitment company Charlton Morris, pensions advisory firm Isio, brand agency McCann, culture group Leeds 2023 and popular Yorkshire restaurant chain Mowgli.

The Collective’s launch date is anticipated for late autumn.
