Calling all students, Fleur are giving you the chance to try their infamous bottomless brunch for just half the price for a limited time only.
If you're a student and you love bottomless brunch, then you will definitely want to keep on reading.
Fleur is the first to call itself the most Instagrammable spot in Leeds, proudly stating on its website that it is the “most Instagram-friendly cafe restaurant” in the city.
As the name suggests, the theme here is floral – and they have gone all out on the aesthetic. Think cascading wisteria draping down from every spare corner of the ceiling, which is also covered in 10,000 pink and purple butterflies.
It’s also just as lush from the outside, with pink signs draped in more pink and purple flowers and flanked by large green areca palms, ferns and peace lilies.

Add in hanging spotlights hidden amongst the flowers and luminous pink neons declaring their own hashtags like #BrunchatFleurs and you’ve got yourself a proper Insta trap if ever we saw one.
But whilst we’re quite taken with the decor, we also want to talk about the brunch offering – which features the likes of pretzel bun burgers, BBQ beef brisket on toast and eggs royale with caviar.

The boozy brunch offer stretches across the entire day from 11am - 5pm and the all day brunch menu is jam packed with delicious dishes to satisfy your cravings all day long.
For just £29.95 a head, enjoy a range of dishes alongside unlimited prosecco, beer, cocktails or mocktails for a whopping 90 minutes.

Fleurs’ Autumn/Winter menu features nods to Chef Bobby Geetha’s Keralan heritage with brunch dishes such as Masala Tofu & Avocado Scramble and mains such as Kerala Salmon.
Fancy something sweet? Opt for the Belgian Waffles with Nutella and Banana to satisfy your sweet tooth, finished with a tangy berry compote and a crunchy Biscoff crumb.
With Fresher's week just around the corner, the lovely people at Fleur are offering all students 50% off their brunch when they present a valid student ID.
Chef Bobby Geetha said, “With multiple universities here, we really have missed having such a large student population due to covid the past couple of years. With restrictions no longer in place this year we know that our city is set to welcome thousands of new students and we can’t wait to give them the welcome they deserve.”
The offer is valid on the 26, 27 and 28 September 2022, between 3-4pm and for tables up to four people. Now is the perfect time to get together with your friends and enjoy one of the best bottomless brunches in the city.

Yorkshire Wildlife Park has shared an update this afternoon, after a man died in a horrifying tiger attack at the zoo yesterday.
The wildlife park, which remains closed today, has informed customers of the future of the tiger involved, Altai.
Emergency services rushed to the park near Doncaster at around 1.30pm on Saturday, after reports of a man climbing into the tiger enclosure.
Tragically, the man involved in the tiger attack lost his life.
The zoo has said that its 'thoughts and heartfelt sympathies' remain with the man's family and loved ones.
They also said that its staff team have been left 'deeply affected' by the tiger attack and will be receiving specialist support.
Yorkshire Wildlife Park has now shared that Altai, the male tiger in question, is 'safe and well' and will not be euthanised as a result of the incident.
In a statement, they said: "We would like to thank everyone who has expressed their concern following yesterday's tragic incident.
"Our thoughts and heartfelt sympathies remain with the family and loved ones of the man who sadly lost his life.
"The park will be closed today while the staff team who were deeply affected by events receive specialist support.
"Many, many people have contacted us about Altai, the tiger. We can reassure everyone that he is safe and well and will not be euthanised as a result of this incident."
Leeds City Council confirms plans to repair historic Lower Kirkgate with work set to begin this month
Clementine Hall
Leeds City Council has confirmed that work to stabilise buildings on Lower Kirkgate is set to begin later this month, with repairs expected to take around 20 weeks to complete.
Back in 2024, Lower Kirkgate in Leeds city centre was closed following the partial collapse of a building, leaving one of the city's oldest streets inaccessible.
Since then, the street has remained closed while plans were developed to address the structural issues affecting the buildings.
Now, almost two years after the initial incident, the council has confirmed that a contractor has been appointed to carry out the work.
The buildings are privately owned, but Leeds City Council says it will step in to carry out the stabilisation work to prevent further deterioration and protect the historic properties.

A spokesperson for Leeds City Council said: “We are pleased that, following months of careful planning and preparation, we are now in a position to begin stabilising these privately owned buildings.
“A contract has been awarded for the work, which is scheduled to get under way later this month and is expected to take around 20 weeks to complete.
“It should be stressed that the situation on Lower Kirkgate is not of the council's making, with the owners of the buildings allowing their condition to deteriorate over many years and then failing to take the necessary steps to address the resultant structural issues.
“By stepping in and carrying out this work itself, the council will be able to arrest the deterioration of important heritage assets on one of Leeds’s oldest streets. As always, we thank the local community for their continued patience and support.”
Further details about the work, including when the street may be able to reopen, have not yet been confirmed.
