Leeds is the unofficial capital of Yorkshire, a city at the heart of the action, filled with vibrant and creative communities, alongside a thriving independent food and coffee scene. Take a look at some of the best speciality venues in the area that we definitely recommend visiting.
Opposite Cafe was launched by Lou Henry in 2006 with a focus on serving speciality coffee & excellent food, with a city centre spot ‘opposite’ Leeds Uni (temporarily closed) followed by a second location in Chapel Allerton.
Opposite has been dedicated to ethical sourcing and using their role in the chain to make decisions that help align quality with sustainable business and source their coffee locally from North Star Roasters.
