I spotted Humpit when Stephanie D suggested we meet at the Corn Exchange recently. Unfortunately this was in the evening, it closes at 5pm, and she had other plans, or else I would have insisted on eating there right away. It's a hummus and pita bar with a hilarious name - that's about as enticing as things can get. So, instead, I insisted that I get the opportunity to try their food before the end of my long weekend and I dragged my mother along. We surprised them by showing up at 11:30 (opening time) on the Monday morning I was planning to leave Leeds. Presumably this is not their busiest time, which suited me just fine. The staff were so nice. They were really friendly and helpful, making suggestions from the menu which is already pretty streamlined; they do hummus or falafel with pita. That's it. They apologised over having no baked chickpeas yet for toppings and offered fresh salad instead, which turned out great. We each ordered the classic hummus with all the toppings (friend onions and mushrooms, spicy salsa and falafel) and I got a brown pita while my mother chose a white one. I also ordered their homemade lemonade, which is the proper, traditional, non-fizzy kind and is very refreshing. The hummus is silky smooth and flavourful and is served just slightly warm alongside a very warm pita. The toppings are perfect and very fresh. I was especially impressed with the falafel which isn't something I normally go for, but it hard a really crispy crunchy outer coating and was lovely and soft in the middle. The meal was so filling too! I normally think of hummus and pita as being a snack but I could barely finish my food! I can see this one being a favourite whenever I visit Leeds from now on. read more
