Now, I don't often get out to Chapel A, but on the odd occasion I do a visit to this little treat…read morestop is an absolute must. Granted, there are not many tables so it can be hard to grab a seat, but I'd suggest it's worth the wait given what's in store. A few Saturdays ago, treats we're on the agenda. As I'd not been here in ages, we decided to seek out some delectable sustenance here, as that is precisely what I got my friends. I had heard tell these guys do a mean burger, and since I've been banging on about seeking out Leeds' best it seemed only fair to tackle that for lunch. Oh. My. Word. After an enticing wait the food arrived and what lay before me was some kind of demi-god, as far as patties go. A beautifully baked sesame seed bun, with all the fluffy, crispy, freshness you could hope for in a bread cake. The accoutrements included a wonderfully fresh bit of salad, perfectly melted cheddar, and a delightful home made piccalilli. The meat? Seasoned to perfection, juicier than I've known, and cooked like a dream. Slightly pink, like a real burger should be, and a right ruddy messy affair. I was in heaven. Of course, you know all about their award winning cupcakes by now, so I needn't wax lyrical about the white chocolate as raspberry nirvana that I polished off at home, but what you probably didn't know is that I've found a contender for one of Leeds' finest burgers. Try for yourself and let me know how you get on... Moar treats? Check in on Yelp and you get 25% off afternoon tea!

The Sunshine Bakery is a delightful and delicious new addition to Chapel Allerton's row of pretty…read morelittle shops on Harrogate Road. I just love the name - so twee and smile-inducing! As soon as I heard about it I just knew I had to check it out ASAP! I have both the requisite sweet tooth and and a love of all things kitsch and vintage-inspired. Hence I LOVE The Sunshine Bakery! The outside of the shop is painted a sumptuous deep plum colour and the sign features gold, hand-painted lettering with a quaint feel. Inside the walls are covered in oh-so-vintage pink flocked wall paper...but to be honest that's not exactly what your eyes are drawn to with all the tasty treats on display! Anyone with a particular predilection for sweetmeats will be literally drooling all over the shop! The cupcakes cry 'EAT ME' with their generous helpings of many-coloured icing and array of flavours. There are also such delights as champagne truffles, as well as slightly less exciting (though very delicious I'm sure) savoury items including sandwiches and soups as well as tea and coffee. There is a lovely atmosphere at The Sunshine Bakery, with friendly, smiling staff, and the customers seeming very happy to be there and oh so close to their next cupcake fix! I also opted for Eton Mess...it was absolutely delicious! If you live in Chapel Allerton you may find yourself trying desperately to avoid the temptation to visit the Sunshine Bakery daily...luckily for my health I live a reasonably long bike ride away...however, the exercise required to get there will probably just allow me to justify a rampant gorge-fest upon arrival! YUM!

Driving down Roundhay Road there would have to be something distinctive to stand out from all the…read moreother Take-away places contributing to light pollution on such a scale it would rival the Blackpool lights! Out steps Shai Nan Kebab! I have been coming here for Kebabs and take aways for at least 6 years and have never been dissapointed. Sadly, last year it was closed for a spell after a fire destroyed most of the inside yet the new place is bigger and better than ever. Most of the skewered kebabs are kept in the chiller fridge for you to salivate over, as well as a great selection of Pakoras/samosa/bahji's. There is nothing done to any of this food in secret- the kitchen is all open plan as well as the prep area so you can see the cleanliness of the food/utensils/staff/prep areas. The skewered kebabs are cooked fresh to order in the tandor so there is a bit of waiting for your order but hey, who doesn't appreciate a wait when you can get to see the life-cycle of the food you are going to eat. The chapatis/rotis/naans are all freshly rolled and cooked to order so again, no 'kept' food. The menu is quite accomodating for most tastes- kebabs/curries/chicken/burgers/fish/chicken portions and then a new selection of desserts and ice cream shakes. Personally, we usually go for the 'Shai Nan Special kebab' which @ £7.50 offers chicken, lamb,shish.donner and masses of salad all wrapped in a freshly griddled naan with lashings of chilli and yoghurt sauce! Definitely one to open the top button of the jeans for! The Mr and i popped by here Sunday eve and got a Lamb tikka naan and I just had a craving for the donner meat and chips- absolutely spot on for both. Even after a 20 min wait we were still happy. Like i said, there are a lot of Take away shops on this shopping parade yet I've never considered trying any of the others as Shai Nan has never let me down and with the regular staff, open-plan kitchen & prep area and a great reputation I can quite justify driving out of my way to go here as I'm guarenteed to get exactly what I want-without fail!

Think door-wedge sandwiches, freshly made soups, salads, sushi etc. They also have local produce in stock - I bought some Yorkshire Honey in there the other day. Gorgeous. Price isn't cheap but - you get what you pay for. There's not much room to sit in but good for taking friends / clients. You could sit outside on the patch of 'grass' - but I'd wait for the summer months for that. Staff are super friendly and there's a selection of magazines / papers to grab if you're feeling the need to consume some literature along with your nosh.

With such a fantastic reputation and community following from the first Out of the Woods on Water Lane in Holbeck Urban Village, the new juice bar serves coffee, soup, smoothies, juice, sandwiches, all things wholesome, just as good if not better than the last. In all the madness of opening a new shop in the christmas period, Ross & Jon (OOTW parents) even had time to open a 'pop-up' Christmas Shop also in Granary Wharf - selling gift boxes and presents that my parents loved. The interior is chic, so is the graphic or 'branding', very simple and decadent but most of all the staff are genuinely lovely. Out of the Woods provides very affordable prices for high quality local produce and excellent personal service. I have, like most, a thing for good coffee and well delivered service with a sense that your custom is valued. For me this is exactly what Out of the Woods is about and does a damn good job at that! Get down there for a coffee / meeting, lunch date, walk along the canal, breakfast before work, comfortable chat, healthy smoothie. etc, etc. I cannot recommend it enough. OH, THEY HAVE FREE WI-FI!!!! THANK YOU Out of the Woods.

The smell of…read morefreshly baked bread is a wonder to behold, and it's lovely to have it gracing North Lane as you wander up. I nipped in on my initial visit, only meaning to browse, only to get instantly chatting to the lovely chap who I believe must be the owner. He's a vibrant sort and proper Yorkshire. I opted for a few of their bread rolls and he threw in two or three for free as the day was coming to a close! It was awesome. What made me chuckle most was that he told me not to complain if they were a little dry, since he'd given them to me for free, which of course I wouldn't dream of. In fact, they were just fine and I couldn't have been happier. Fresh breads, cakes, cheap prices, banter - what more could you want? With this making up my ultra triumvirate of local produce, I'm as happy as a sandboy. Awesome fresh bread and cakes, fantastic banter and a few bargains to behold. Don't wait up - come to Artisan soon!

My friend and I popped into this bakery as I had seen it numerous times whilst living locally. On…read morethe day we decided to go in and buy local as opposed to head to one of the high street brands we were confronted by a rude, angry man who was bitter that my friend had previously purchased a pie and eggs from another local shop just up the street and continued to mock the previous purchase and its quality. After he had slagged off the items bought elsewhere he banged a loaf down on the counter and demanded the money, chuntering about how he was upset that we had purchased from elsewhere; products that he did not seem to sell. To be fair, the bread was very average and I will not be going again soon. If there are any entrepreneurs out there looking to set up a small retail outlet, please visit Artisan Bakery, Headingley for a masterclass is terrible customer service.

After years of wondering what causes the traffic problems in Oulton I have finally found out…read more The Cottage Bakery is situated, strangely enough, in a cottage just off a major roundabout and the only customer parking is on the road side. Which is a problem when you constantly have queues. I parked someway up the road and round the corner and called in for a beef salad sandwich. No sign what so ever of any wussy thin sliced processed beef, this was a seriously beefed up sandwich. A lovely soft breadcake filled to the brim (and beyond) with massive chunks of off the joint beef and lots of crisp, tasty salad (I should be writing this to the strains of falling in love again). I was tempted by the hot sandwiches and pasties and the other savouries looked divine but will have to wait for next time. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate were available and reasonably priced.
