The Best Cafes in Adel, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Hadn't tried Caribbean food before but saw this place and called in for lunch. Very helpful staff who made suggestions. Ended up having curried goat, curried chicken, rice and peas, dumplings, mac and cheese, plantain and coleslaw between two of us. Food was delicious and the portions were generous. Will definitely be back.

Delicious Caribbean food along with much traditional home town fare. The Staff and Owner are quite Delicious too 😋

Good hearty homemade Caribbean grub! Decent portions and value for money. Good vibes and friendly service. 🤌

Ordered - Cool Runnings (with curried goat) £14. Overall I’d rate this meal 6/10. The curried goat was very tasty, would recommend. The jerk wings weren’t good, definitely pre-cooked and reheated (not grilled) no real flavour. Same for Mac&cheese, pre-cooked, had foil all over bottom and was very rigid and barely warm. Rice & peas didn’t come with Caribbean gravy ,or spicy sauce which was a shame. In fact, the whole meal was tame on the spice front. Glad I tried but won’t be rushing back.

I came here for the Turkish breakfast which I recommend. Nice seating outside which is great when weather is sunny. Decor is very nice with indoor seating if you prefer.

Great food, great service. We live close and will definitely be returning! It was also lovely and cosy after walking there in the sludge!

Warm friendly atmosphere! And the gent serving had a great smile! Highly recommended for breakfast!

A lovely place with lovely coffee. The only place where they don’t put sugar in the mocha while they make it, but give you the choice to put it yourself. Brilliant. Food was great as well. Nice Mediterranean feel to it.

Highly recommended 😋👌🏻 Alexander catered for my grandma's 90th Birthday party last week at Adel social club and every single guest from the 8 year olds to the 95 year olds all commented on how delicious the food was! Alex even prepared a generously portioned separate meal for my father with special dietary requirements (vegan with additional food sensitivities) and my dad was really impressed! He arrived on time to lay out the food before the party and then came back after to clear away what was left before the end of our use of the venue, with such friendly and helpful service every step of the way! Thanks so much! As well as the deli, if you need event catering - Alexander is your guy! 👍🏻

Got a tuna salad, crisps, carrot cake all very nice 😋 chips good. Nice inside and staff very friendly, will try eating in next time

This place is an absolute gem. Tried it just before Xmas and now will be a regular customer. Tried loaded fries with buffalo sauce, excellent. Then my partner and I tried poutine which was plentiful and lathered in gravy alongside a tuna melt bagel. We were stunned how big it was, absolutely stuffed with filling. Today, tried Philly Cheese bagel (pictured) and it was massive and contained a ton of pastrami. It fell apart because it had so much filling but a messy meal has it's own charm. We're buzzing that we live close to it... gunna try everything on the menu!

Lovely location, parking, decorated nice and friendly staff. Food was very good, especially for the money. That was exactly how I would make a burger at home. Will definitely use again. Better than OBC.

Great place for a family meal and occasion. Great food, prices, and very friendly service. Went on Mother's Day.... highly recommended!

Went yesterday for Mothers Day. There were two sittings, with us being on the second sitting. The change over was pretty noisy and a bit chaotic, but once that was sorted things quietened down a lot. The Staff were really lovely. Really friendly and worked their socks off as it was so busy. Nothing was too much trouble for them at all. The Food was lovely too. Three course Mothers Day special for around £12. I had Yorkshire puddngs for starter which were lovely. Lamb with veg for mains and a lemon posset with shortbread for dessert. Every bit of it was lovely, with the dessert being my absolute favourite of the day. Bottle of wine were very reasonably priced too. Not like some places charging you £40 for a £12 bottle. A nice bottle here was £14. The main question is would I come back? I absolutely would. Lovely food at a very reasonable price. Many Thanks

One of the best breakfasts I have had for a while definitely worth a trip to try one and very good on price

Thank you to the ladies at Ida Lodge for organising and providing a fabulous afternoon tea for me and my beautiful sister's, daughter in law's and grandaugher to celebrate my 70 birthday. This was one of the nicest afternoon teas I have had and a wonderful surprise. Thank you girls I love you all to bits. We can happily recommend.

The owner is so lovely and very friendly, the environment is so cosy which makes it perfect for me to do my work there nearly daily.

As well as a cosy cafe experience, Red Bean offers meeting rooms, very convenient for business meetings. Staff very friendly & helpful. Excellent service. Food is standard cafe fare.

What a lovely spot! Amy was incredibly friendly and their coffee is excellent. The place itself is perfect for anyone wanting a casual drink with friends in a welcoming seating area, or if you want to book out their meeting rooms for a more private space. 5 stars ⭐️

Awesome place, friendly & welcoming staff, best coffee I’ve ever had,

Probably the best organic food you could find in the whole of Leeds! Everything made in this little place is made with 100% pure love! Great place to buy local fruit, veg, bread, milk, eggs, tea, coffee......take your reusable bag- these guys don’t deal with single use plastics!!!!

Amazing coffee and great bakes. We also buy local honey from them. There is no much place to sit but could be perfect for take away or if the weather is good to sit outside.

Quirky cafe selling organic vegetables, savoury pastries, brownies to die for and great coffee. There is no sign and it doesn't look like it's high quality, but all the products we've tried have been amazing and the locals all know about this place. It's a little hidden down Weetwood Lane, but definitely worth a trip. Lots of Parking here, but we walked. Staff are super friendly too :)

Edit** visited again (on a Saturday ~10am) and managed to bag the last almond croissant! It was absolutely divine. The filling was perfectly sweet, the exterior was crusty but the middle was soft. So good! Definitely a treat. This is my favourite almond croissant I've had so far in my quest. I tried the iced latte this time as well and that was delicious as well. Partner enjoyed his pan au chocolate. Will definitely be back Came here for an almond croissant, but unfortunately they'd run out by the time we got there (~11am Saturday). Instead we got a regular croissant and some coffee. They have limited outdoor seating, and it was raining so we took everything to-go. The croissant was lovely. I always brace for disappointment when I order an oat latte and it comes in a big latte cup, however this was the first time that I've ordered one like that and the coffee is still nice and strong. Loved the coffee, will be back again some day and hopefully get to try the almond croissant (I'm on a quest to find my favourite one).

A truly magical gem that surprises and delights. One of the most peaceful and restorative spaces I've had the pleasure to spend time in. This place couldn't fail to bring joy to all who visit. The sheer pleasure of being immersed in such a tranquil space can be seen on the faces of every single volunteer. It's a little escape from the hustle and bustle of life beyond the gate.

Visited here for the first time. What a beautiful garden with plants we've never seen before, a meadow with around 10 beehives, and a lovely cafe. A real gem, we will visit again next year. Cheers guys.

Visited the garden on 3rd September. Although it only has limited parking we had no problems finding a space. We were greeted at the entrance by a friendly and informative guide who gave us a brief overview of the gardens and amenities. As it was close to lunchtime the first stop was the cafe. This has a large seating both inside and in the garden. The food was good, we both had Paninies which were very good and at a good price. The facilities are spotlessly clean. You can visit the cafe without having to pay entry to the garden. The garden although is only 1 acre the design crams in so many small gardens and walkways it seems so much larger. The planting and hard landscaping is wonderful and is well worth the visit. Price is £7 which is very reasonable and even better is part of the gardeners world 2 for 1 ticket offer. The annual price is also a very cheap option at only .£30. There is also a shop and also plant sales again at reasonable prices. I would highly recommend a visit

An absolute hidden gem! One of the most beautiful garden to visit in Yorkshire!! Plenty of interest everywhere you looked. There’s lots of different areas to wander and seating in places to marvel at the fantastic handiwork. The cafe had seating both inside and out with a good selection of food and drink. Plenty of parking spaces alongside a gift shop and plant nursery. Highly recommend visiting if you love gardens!!!

It’s been a while since my last visit !! I was invited to a meeting taking place in the “sunshine “ room and I knew from my last visit that this must be further work in progress! I parked outside and the first thing I noted was that the old entrance had been filled in . I was directed around the side of the building and up a gently sloping wide ramp to another large entrance. There are railings all the way up the ramp for safety and help for mobility . It also prevents a drop onto the old steps too. The new doorway is double glazed sliding doors and leads into a corridor. Situated here too is a disabled toilet 🚾 wheelchair Accessible and fitted with visual impairment handrails too . To my right a large double door leading into the “sunshine” room . It was a very sunny day and the room was bathed with light even with the blinds closed ! Very appropriate name . This was the meeting room today and also in an alcove is a very modern little kitchenette. A good sized meeting room without crazy acoustics !! All floors flat and level and no trip hazards! A real jewel in the crown of the LS16 community . Still work to do outside and the bees 🐝 were busy in the parts that had been cleared and planted .

This place is a real little gem in the community. Since buying the old run down pub it used to house there has been a huge transformation. The cafe is really welcoming, plenty of space, kids corner, fully accessible. There is a car park at the rear, bus stop across the road (no 6 and 19) and Horsforth train station isn't far either. No excuse not to go and visit! Amazing staff, friendly atmosphere, really good selection of food (the cake!!!) and great coffee! As you can probably tell, I rather like it!!

Attended the Strength & Balance Class and was greeted with a warm welcome. I must say, it's a relaxing place with a great ambience and the café is like an oasis. It feels like home and the staff are very receptive. The facilities are really user friendly for people who have a disability, good ♿wheelchair access, 🚾 toilets and 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧family orientated, a space for all. I have not tried out the cafe yet but from what I have seen so far it looks delightful and I look forward to trying it out real soon. Also good transport service too, whether you prefer the bus or train. If you have not visited yet, I urge you to give it a try!

Great place to visit, so welcoming and friendly it is like you have been a friend for years even if it is your first visit. They have something going on every day, from lunches where you an get a warm meal to games afternoons where you can meet new friends and have a laugh. They also have nurses dropping in to help with any bandage dressing you may require and advise on any health problems. To many events to list so recommend looking on their website, which is something they also help with. Highly recommended.

Incredible place! I wish I had a better photo of how it arrived! Honestly one of the best English breakfasts I have ever had. It is difficult to elevate a fry, but they managed. Mushroom with lemon and thyme, homemade beans, perfect poached eggs, great coffee. Seriously impressive place. Everyone else was really happy with the food as well. Service was fast and kind.

This is my first visit to this establishment, and I must say it has left a remarkable impression on me. Opting for breakfast here in the morning was undoubtedly the right choice. From the very first moment, the young and attentive staff ensured a warm and welcoming experience. The time spent here, combined with the unique atmosphere, is as exceptional as the food itself. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who has yet to try the local cuisine – it is truly worth the visit.

Breakfast was really nice! I had the french toast and it was delicious, the orange mascarpone made it very refreshing so it wasn't too sweet. The portion size was also huge. We also had the breakfast brioche, again very delicious but definitely recommend it with added bacon.

The food is fabulous, highly recommend the Turkish eggs and also the pastries. I would suggest asking for some of the pastries to be heated like spinach & feta or the chocolate, hazelnut and pear (they won't offer but will do upon request). Coffee is great, and service is rapid meaning you can stop before your train. Booking looks advisable as always busy.

Superb as always. Mrs Atha’s never dissapoints. The Food and coffee are always exemplary. Awesome interior and wonderful attention to detail in everything they do right down to the teaspoons❤️

We had went to Mrs Atha's for breakfast, we were visiting Leeds from Nottingham. The food was so good, when I go back to Leeds will definitely return and will recommend to friends and family. Lovely food on the menu lots to choose from. The drinks we chose english breakfast tea and it was tea leaves it was so nice such a difference to using bags. Nice quite little restaurant 👌 😀

Mrs Artha’s Café in Leeds is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, the beautiful industrial décor catches your eye a perfect blend of modern chic and rustic charm. The exposed brickwork, hanging lights, and tasteful furnishings create a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you want to linger. The staff were nothing short of amazing incredibly welcoming, friendly, accommodating. Whether you’re popping in for a quick coffee or settling in for a meal, they make you feel right at home. The service was prompt without feeling rushed, and every interaction felt genuinely thoughtful. The food and drinks were a delight too beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. You can tell a lot of care goes into the menu. If you’re in Leeds, Mrs Artha’s Café is an absolute must-visit. A stunning spot with top-notch service to match highly recommend!

My favourite spot for coffee and breakfast. Always of a high quality. I think it has the nicest decor compared to any other cafe in city center. Its lowly lit and relaxing. It's priced quite cheap for what it is. No frills, but friendly service which is perfect for me. This isnt America!
