Cinnabon is bringing its iconic cinnamon rolls to Leeds city centre.
Since its launch back in the 1980s, Cinnabon has become a sensation across the globe for its ooey-gooey, sugary sweet delights.
Freshly baked, soft cinnamon rolls absolutely covered in sticky, smooth icing - this is the ultimate bakery treat.
Having opened its first Yorkshire site in Wakefield back in 2021, the chain is now setting up shop in Leeds city centre and we couldn't be more excited.

The new site will be on Commercial Street, an area which has seen a lot of development over the past year.
Customers can indulge in a range of options, from the Cinnabon Classic to the Cinnabon MinniBon, the same original recipe but in miniature form.
There's also a chocolate flavour, a caramel pecan flavour and a Lotus Biscoff flavour as well as seasonal specials. Either pop by for one bun or pick up a box of two, four or six.
There will also be a cold drinks menu with iced coffees, homemade lemonades or fruit coolers.

Of course there will also a selection of hot drinks on offer, so you can grab your go-to coffee order to compliment your morning Cinnabon delight.
Cinnabon was created by father and son duo:"who set out on a mission to create the world’s greatest cinnamon roll from scratch.
"After months of trial and error, one master baker and hundreds of different recipes, they finally created the perfect roll."
Cinnabon now has over 25 locations across the UK, so guests can enjoy their world-famous rolls wherever they go. An official opening date has yet to be announced, but will be confirmed soon.
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.
The Leeds Supper Club bringing people together over incredible food
Clementine Hall
What started as a simple idea around food has grown into something much bigger for Leeds Supper Club.
The idea was born from a love of food and the idea that eating together can be about much more than what’s on your plate.
Rather than simply going out to a restaurant, Leeds Supper Club puts connection at the heart of its events, bringing people together to share incredible food and enjoy an evening in good company.
We had the pleasure of attending their most recent event where we had the most wonderful evening with founders Lizzie, Phillip and the rest of the club.

This instalment was a very special one, as it was in collaboration with Knotfield Vine over in Horsforth.
I mean, it really doesn't get more scenic than this - we really felt like we'd been whisked away to the South of France rather than a Leeds suburb. But we wouldn't want it either way.

What makes it a cut above the rest is the details. Every little detail has been thought out, from the low-lit, sexy lighting, hand-made name plates, live music and four courses of wonderful seasonal goodness made fresh.
From enjoying a glass of wine within the vines alongside a couple of nibbles to tucking into a three course meal around a candle-lit table, there's really nowhere else like it.

The tagliatelle pasta with beef and whipped feta was a real highlight, and knowing Lizzie and Philip receive help on the menu and the cooking from all their friends made it taste that much sweeter.
By the end of it we'd had some delicious food, fabulous wine and shared even better conversation. And it's safe to say we left feeling a part of the club.
Keep an eye on their Instagram page here for all upcoming events.
