Lovely little cafe, friendly Leeds lassies. Wall dedicated to Leeds. Prices are reasonable considering the economy. Proper community cafe.. proper home made chips

Affordable cafe ran by a couple of friendly gals. Sandwiches use fresh bread which was a plus. They helped out a lost Aussie who went to the wrong location because booking.com & google maps gave them the wrong location. (Note: Bethel apartments and the Bethel location on maps aren't the same location!)

Friendly and quick service, serving piping hot food at a very reasonable price. You cannot avoid the fact Christine is a Leeds fan, but she runs a cracking café that does exactly what a café is supposed to do. Definitely on my returns list
