Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Allerton Bywater

"Fettle is a brilliant find if you’re looking for somewhere to have brunch in Leeds. On the weekend, the Scandinavian-inspired cafe has a special all-day menu that bridges the gap between breakfast and lunch. You’ve got classics like their full English breakfast, but the veggie alternative is arguably even better – you’ll get slices of halloumi or tofu, a free-range egg cooked your way and sourdough toast, served with beautifully seasoned wilted spinach, mixed beans, confit tomatoes and a flat mushroom."

"Although it isn’t at the heart of the city, it isn’t far from it either. It’s located less than five minutes walk from Leeds Town Hall. This Scandinavian cafe and restaurant is a great choice for those who love organic and seasonal locally sourced ingredients."

"Cosy cafe by day, fine-dining dynamo by night, Fettle is full of surprises. Over the years, it’s blossomed into one of the best restaurants in Leeds. Brunch is an all-day affair with a refined menu of daytime favourites."

"When to go: Head down for a lazy brunch, take a book, order a large coffee, and while away a few hours. What to have: The partisan breakfast (meat, veggie and vegan available) cooked and served in a skillet, is comfort food at its best. For something a little lighter, try their Persian eggs with Medjoul dates and warming spices."

"Run by Argentinian Florencia Clifford and her farmer husband Hugo, Partisan serves international food like ceviche, Persian breakfast eggs and beef bibimbap. It’s furnished by an antiques dealer and everything you see is for sale, which means the décor changes subtly each visit. Dinner is served three nights a week."

"Located on Micklegate, Partisan serve both breakfast and brunch. Treat yourself to French Toast, Eggs Benedict, Smashed Avocado and Melted Goats Cheese or the fabulous Partisan Breakfast."

"They always have a great selection of cakes, brownies and pastries too. Beautiful ambience, excellent food & delicious cakes. The wonderful staff provides a first class service."

"Côte Brasserie is a name the whole country knows – they’re famed for their delicious French fare. The venue is inspired by Parisian bistros, and they’ve got a menu to match. You can pop in for breakfast, lunch or supper – start the day with French Toast, fruit salad and maple syrup, head back at lunch to sample their Steak Frites with garlic butter or nip in for a hearty dinner of Roasted Pork Belly."

"Breakfast shouldn’t just be restricted to the morning and Popina’s know this, that’s why they sere it all day long to those who know that a full English is still appropriate at dinner time. They have good vegetarian options and a great omelette selection for those who aren’t so keen on a fry up. If you do love fry up’s however, then it’s worth trying the mega breakfast, Popina’s own version of the man vs food challenge, they promise if you eat it you get added to the prestigious mega eating challenge board and win a much sought after key ring."

"Located in the Dean Court Hotel, D.C.H The Restaurant offers an intimate dining experience with enchanting views of York Minster. It is an AA Rosette restaurant serving lunch, dinner, and traditional afternoon tea. There is a separate vegan menu and plenty of gluten free options including pasta, grilled cod fillet, and a selection of sweet treats."

"35 Park Row, Leeds LS1 5JLNot only does Jamie’s have a decent variety of vegan dishes on the menu, but they also have a filter on their site (so you don’t have to hunt through the whole menu)."

"A Chapel Allerton favourite that’s just as popular in the day as at night. Great for breakfast, afternoon tea, Sunday roast and have a great children’s menu. 16-18 Steinbeck Lane, Leeds."

"I was actually intending to spend a couple of hours in the Tiled Hall Cafe (see above) but it was closed for a private event, so I wandered into The Light centre and spotted this pink, flowery, instagram-perfect wonderland!. Haute Dolci has eight locations, so it’s a much larger operation that the other Leeds’ coffee shops I’ve included here, but it’s so pretty that I just had to include it. I would say it’s more of a dessert restaurant than a coffee shop, serving up the most elegant looking desserts, but I had a cappuccino and a couple of macarons which were intensely sweet (in a good way)."

"Although Haute Dolci isn’t a cafe, I couldn’t skip this dessert restaurant. You’ll find this beautiful restaurant inside The Light leisure centre. Their menu is all about desserts which is the dream for anyone with a sweet tooth."

"Puddings to die for from Haute Dolci in The Light - now delivered on UberEats. Choose from chocolate fudge brownies, banana split sundaes, stacked American pancakes and plenty more."
