Malmaison Leeds is returning to its roots with the return of Chez Mal restaurant.
Spearheaded by chef and director John Woodward, Chez Mal will also implement an updated menu which will bring serious flair to modern dining, breathing new life into brasserie classics.
Guests can expect global inspiration, modern techniques, and dishes fired up on Konro and Josper grills.
Malmaison’s Chez Mal takes its name and spirit from Château Malmaison, where Napoleon and Josephine threw some of the most legendary feasts in history. Chez Mal is here to carry on that legacy in Leeds, serving up exceptional food, killer cocktails, and next-level hospitality.

Sounds good right?
Whether you’re popping in for afternoon tea, a romantic dinner for two or a Sunday roast with all the trimmings diners can expect delicious ingredient-driven plates with impressive attention to detail.
The iconic bottomless brunch is available every Saturday with free-flowing Prosecco,
Aperol Spritz, Mimosas, and Cruzcampo, paired with a delicious main course priced at
£39.50 – the perfect combination if you ask us.

Malmaison Leeds general manager, Sara Hargraves, said: “Chez Mal isn’t just back – it’s better, bolder, and ready to lead the culinary scene in Leeds once again.
“Our guests can expect the same fantastic service and comfort that Malmaison Leeds and Chez Mal have always been known for, set against the backdrop of our beautifully refreshed bar and restaurant. It’s a nod to Chez Mal’s heritage but reimagined for the future.”
And partnered with a night stay at the wonderful Malmaison hotel, we can’t think of a better staycation in a wonderful city.
