Top Places and Services in Chapel allerton

Hands down the best cafe, baristas and coffee in Leeds by far

The owners really care about their customers and they show through their commitment to training and embracing their team.

The food choices are well thought out and complement the coffee shop vibe. They even have great background music and a genuine interest in how their customers day is going ! (To such a degree and level of care rarely experienced in contemporary British hospitality)

When they ask how are you they actually mean it and care about your answer!

There’s plenty of choice for the discerning coffee aficionados our there; a good few yummy cookies and one or two high quality, thoughtfully made and well prepared, gourmet toasted sandwiches but even the banter between customers and the staff puts other venues to shame demonstrating that when owners actually care its palpable.

Many of the team rotate between my favourite branch on Stainburn Parade and the Harvey Nichols cafe in the Victoria shopping centre and its the same high quality experience from attentive staff and attention to details that set this young brand apart from their competitors

I hope they flourish cos its super!

The Rabbit Hole smells beautiful as soon as you walk in, the smell off coffee hits you and you know your getting a quality coffee made with passion.

Edit 04/23 - boosting my 4* review to 5*, by the power of ham and cheese croissant. It was soooo good. Loving the local ingredients. Hope they keep these going, I’ll definitely be back for another. RHC are also one of the only places I can get an iced oat latte that isn’t too milky. The people are lovely and you can tell a lot of care and attention goes into the coffee.

Walked past here plenty of times waiting for it to open, excited to see it was today. Small coffee shop with a couple of cosy seats, simple decor. Ordered an iced oat latte to go. Smaller than I’d expect for the price, but I appreciate you could taste the coffee as they can sometimes be too milky.

One thing I’d say is I didn’t even notice the pastries as they’re built into the counter on the edge, so heads up for that!

Hoping in the future for more eco friendly packaging, straw was paper but I believe both the cup and lid were not recyclable. They use oatly which isn’t my favourite oat milk brand (questionable ethics), prefer califia farms or moma personally. Appreciate this was their first week of opening and hope it goes well for them. Would love to see some branded cups/ at least a sleeve.

(Edit) Appreciate the response from the owner. All makes sense. There’s nothing wrong with a 4 star review, leaves room for improvement. Bit odd that other reviewers seem to be piggybacking off my review to “undo” what I’ve said. It’s just my opinion!

My partner picked me up an iced oat latte today and it was in a bigger, recyclable cup. Good times

The best flat white in Leeds without doubt! Always grab a bag of their coffee beans as well. The toasties and cakes are 10/10 as well.

Perfect little coffee spot located just off the stainburn area.

The coffee was smooth and served promptly, with the staff being friendly and attentive. Would reccomendation to anyone looking for a coffee and bite to eat in the local area!
