Our Favourite Coffee Shops in Leeds
There's little that can't be solved over a good eggs Benedict and no wrongs that can't be righted with a well-timed flat white...
Vinyl Grounds
This is a cool new spot we’re loving on Central Road, quickly becoming the go-to place for excellent coffee, wine and vinyls in the city. The space has a distinctly retro vibe and is a relaxed space to spend an afternoon.

Laynes
This bright pop of colour is hard to miss on New Station Street, and is as sunny inside as it is out. As well as an excellent range of coffee, visitors can also enjoy a hearty breakfast and lunch menu, plus a substantial array of cakes and bakes.

Raw
This industrial chic café is for the serious caffeine fiends. The basics are covered on the menu, but we’d recommend trying their more avant-garde creations. Think matcha rhubarb lemonade, nitro cold brews with elderflower, and blue matcha (made with ground butterfly pea flowers).

Habitum
We love enjoying a coffee in this pastel paradise. It offers a self-service experience, and the drinks menu is highly customisable with lots of health-conscious ways to tweak your drink, whether you’re after a boost of collagen or are trying to hit your protein goals.

Paria
A great choice for those on the go, this café was born from the cycling and running apparel business of the same name found at the same site. But coffee here is not an after thought, and you can expect speciality drinks and indulgent bakes. 180 Harrogate Road, Chapel Allerton LS7 4NZ
