There are some Sunday mornings that appear just as messy as the night before.
Every Sunday helping anyone that had a little too much the night before to get back to their usual equilibrium, Alleycats in Chapel Allerton is putting on a spread that even the most hungover of your Saturday night crowd wouldn't refuse.
Best of all, it's called 'The Hungover Games'.
Whether you're looking for a full English or a Bloody Mary the day after the night before, there's something for everyone's weird hangover cures- and all for less than the price of a city centre cocktail.
For £10, Alleycats offers the sweet bitterness of fresh coffee by the jug, refreshing glasses of juice and pots of tea as unlimited servings so that you can take your anxieties from the bill and instead concentrate on achieving that post-hangover euphoria.

Also a bottomless serving each Sunday is Alleycat's selection of cereal, which comes in addition to any brunch dish of your choice- there really is every food and drink to rid your hangover in this spot.
For brunch, expect a carb-fuelled menu of big brekkies like the The Fat Cat with a sausage patty, streaky bacon, fried eggs, hash browns, barbecue sauce and toast. Alternatively, the Vote-4-Pedro Quesadilla combines all your favourite breakfast ingredients into a Mexican style wrap, whilst the Brekkie McBreakfast face piled the meat and carbs onto a bun/breadcake/barm slathered in butter.

Those in need of the hair of the dog (known here as the hair of the cat) can grab an espresso martini, Bloody Mary or Mimosa with their meal, whilst those with sweet cravings after a long night out can source Belgian waffles with bacon, maple syrup and ice cream: there really is something for every craving.
If you're not willing to pop along for a foodie fix, bring your own vinyl along and listen to it on repeat as part of the Hungover Games offerings: (maybe just be considerate to those with a headache when choosing your LP though).
For more information, visit the Alleycats Instagram page or pay the cafe a visit every Sunday to take full advantage of the Hungover Games menu 12-5pm every week.

Yorkshire-set Christmas film by Leeds director starring Richard E. Grant set to hit UK cinemas next month
A brand-new Christmas film is hitting cinemas nationwide next month - and it’s a proper Leeds success story.
Jack Spring directed his first feature film at just 19 years old and has spent the last decade carving out a career in independent film, as well as co-founding Leeds-based production company Shush Films.
His first movie, Destination: Dewsbury, was shot just down the road in - you guessed it - Dewsbury. And after moving to Leeds from Grimsby, Jack became determined to build his business from the city, putting down roots and growing his production company here.

Now, after years of working on independent projects, Jack has taken his biggest leap yet with a brand-new Christmas film, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint.
Set in Yorkshire, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint follows Aubrey Flint, a reclusive model soldier painter with a lifelong hatred of Christmas, who is sentenced to community service at Willow Lodge - a retirement home on the brink of closure.
Roped into helping with a chaotic production of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Aubrey clashes with its interesting set of residents...
And the cast is about as star-studded as it gets, featuring Richard E. Grant, John Bradley, Celia Imrie, Adjoa Andoh, Sophia Di Martino, Adrian Rawlins and Kiell Smith-Bynoe.

The heartwarming festive comedy will hit cinemas nationwide on Friday 6 November - a huge milestone for a Leeds-based director and production company, taking a homegrown Yorkshire story to audiences across the country.
You just can't beat a proper wholesome British Christmas film, so you can best believe we'll be watching in the cinema, popcorn in hand.

Lindsay Hamilton, general manager of Fusion Students Leeds said: “I honestly wish I could go back to being a student just so I could live here. It’s such an incredible space, with so much to offer residents.
“You can see how excited they are when they come for a tour, but what’s been really lovely is seeing how much they actually use and benefit from the space once they move in. It’s much more than just somewhere to live, it’s a space that really supports them.”

Speaking about the new opening, Laura Kurt, Managing Director for Fusion Students said: “Whilst we’re thrilled to have the accolades of tallest PBSA building and Yorkshire’s tallest building, what we’re really proud about is the incredible building we’ve been able to create for students coming to study in Leeds.
"This is a very special building, carefully designed to provide everything students need to get the most out of their journey through higher education. From industry leading amenities such as recording and photography studios, to wrap around care and support, to make settling into a new city, making friends and leaving with the best outcomes possible, that’s really what Fusion Students Leeds is all about."
