Whoooo, awesome building! Grand, lofty, opulent. Very plush with pleasant service. I like what they've done with the window blinds, fanning them out into an arc. Lovely proper linen serviettes too. Dine here and feel like a duchess. One point before I get onto the food and this let it down and lost it a star - grubby, dirty paintwork. By the steps facing my table, the white paintwork needed cleaning as it was very grubby grey indeed, but worse than that to my right within inches of me there were food stains and dribbles on the white, wooden panelling. Real juxtaposition in such a setting as this and an easy fix with a damp cloth, so a bit inexcusable really and somewhat off-putting. Didn't expect to see that in a place like this. Now then the tucker-scram... yum yum. I had the vegetarian brekky which was quite innovative in that it had beetroot hash on. Very pleasant to see something a bit different. Avocado, two poached eggs, baked beans, flat mushrooms, grilled tomato and toasted sourdough. I had a delicious kale, spinach, mango and apple smoothie. Very impressed with this place, its decor, the food and the service. Please just clean off the old food stains. I still recommend it though and would revisit, yep.

Popped into Browns in Leeds City Centre on a quiet Wednesday arvo. My partner and I treated ourselves to their British Afternoon Tea set, and it was proper posh. The place has this swanky modern grand cafe vibe, all sleek and stylish. Being midweek, it was blissfully peaceful. The whole vibe was dead fancy but not stuffy for me at least. Tiered stand came loaded with dainty sarnies, scones that were just chef's kiss, and some seriously indulgent cakes. Tea selection was top-notch, I also had cappucino coffee which was creamy but light, perfect blend. And the staff were attentive without being in your face. If you're after a bit of midweek indulgence without the weekend crowds, this is your spot. If you're after a bit of British elegance, this is your place. Perfect for a chilled date or just treating yourself!

Beautiful restaurant with good, busy atmosphere. Decent cocktails. Great, friendly service. The let down was the food. In particular, a ribeye ordered medium ...it was a bad cut of meat that arrived and was well done. Either the knife was blunt or the steak was hard to cut. Very thin piece for a 10oz... probably why it was overcooked. Courgette fritters were mostly batter and a little greasy. The cod cheek starter was nice. Wine is fairly reasonable price wise. Cocktails were quite good. Probably wouldn't return based on the food, I am sad to say. And yes, we could have complained and sent back the steak but we felt the staff were busy enough and if that was the cut of meat sent out, a new one probably wouldn't be mu h improved.

We recently visited here for family gathering. Booked online for table for 8 people (deposits required). It was Thursday evening and very quiet. We really enjoyed the atmosphere, food and drinks. The fillet steak and salad here are always great. They also care about the allergy so my family can eat very comfortably. We also tried some cakes from here last time and me and my husband absolutely loved it. It looked pretty and tasted really good. One negative point is that they often take relatively long time to serve our drinks and they sometimes forget our drink orders (it’s not only once it happened before too). Anyway, we will come back for sure if we have any special occasions.

We were visiting Leeds for a uni open day at Leeds Beckett, for an impromptu late lunch we ambled into Browns, as the first suitable looking venue, as my son is a wheelchair user. As it happened it was my wife's birthday and Browns has a great reputation, so choosing Browns was bound to be a treat. They had no room in the restaurant but Matty (Matthew) was very keen to find us a table and found us the perfect spot in the bar area near the front. The food was first class and Matty was really helpful and so attentive in the best way and with the right balance, ie not in your face. All the staff that dealt with us were lovely.
