One of Leeds' most beautiful brunch spots is bringing a bottomless experience to the table.
The bottomless option has been brought in after years of customer requests, and their debut offering certainly won't disappoint.
The very first FINT bottomless brunch can be sampled over the Jubilee bank holiday weekend, so there's no stress of next-day headaches to
On the menu there's bottomless cava, mimosas, Bloody Mary’s, coffee negronis or drinks from Saltaire’s Brewery alongside any brunch dish from the new spring menu.
In true nordic style, the menu is bursting with natural ingredients and flavours aplenty. Choose from mouthwatering Smørrebrød (open sarnies) with salmon gravlax, smoked chicken, or tofu on toasted coriander on seed bread, with seed cream, onion jam, rocket, sliced new potato, capers.
The crumpet benedict, a customer favourite of local bacon or vegan sausage with two poached Burford Brown eggs and hollandaise will make a feature alongside heartier dishes like spring stalk gnocchi: a plate of pan toasted gnocchi with carrot salad, yellow pea puree, cavolo nero and a choice of either trout or tofu.
Simon Hawkins, Head Chef and Owner, said:“For years we’ve been asked if we do a bottomless brunch. As we’ve got a four day weekend coming up for the Jubilee, we thought what better time to join the bottomless brunch party!

"We’ve got so much to offer and what better time to try our new Nordic take on an English breakfast. With the option of gluten free crumpets on our crumpet benedicts and a vegan hollandaise that’s hard to tell apart from the regular one, there is something for you and your friends as you raise a mimosa, coffee negroni, or other party drink to celebrate Her Majesty or just to celebrate spending time with your nearest and dearest!”
FINT's new bottomless brunch launches Thursday 2 June 2022 with tickets costing £34.95 per for a ninety-minute sitting.

Co-founder Sam Grainger, inspired by countless trips to Mexico, says: “Mexico is alive with passionate artisans and cooks, mastering everything from street tacos to regional delicacies.

Award-winning Leeds restaurant announces shock closure just months after opening
Clementine Hall
Emba in Leeds will be closing its doors with the owner blaming rising costs and pressure on the hospitality sector.
Back in April last year, one of Leeds' top restaurants The Owl closed its doors.
Run by renowned Chef Liz Cottam, The Owl was reimagine into Emba - a trendy restaurant tat bridged 'the gap between cosy bar and vibrant dining room'.
To open Emba, Cottam opened a Crowdfunder where supporters would be awarded with prizes such as VIP dinners and merch depending on how much they donated.
But sadly just months after opening, Emba is to close permanently.
Cottam confirmed the sad news with a statement shared with customers over the weekend, saying she was completely "heartbroken".
She said: “This is no longer the right time to own independent restaurants like Emba,” she said. “Under the current conditions they cannot survive and the recent budget confirmed what so many of us already knew: no meaningful help is coming for hospitality.
"The experience of being here and the harsh financial reality of running a business here no longer stack up.
"Being award winning, popular, admired and loved no longer means profitable and as an industry if we’re honest most of us have not truly been okay since Covid."
She signed off the statement promising to return to the restaurant world, she said: “What I do know is this, I am not done. I will keep cooking, keep creating and keep finding ways to do the thing I love.”
