Pickards Tea Room — Restaurant in Leeds

I recently revisited Pickards Cafe, nestled in front of Leeds University's iconic Parkinson Building, and I must say, it was an absolute delight!

Being a dedicated coffee aficionado, I couldn't resist the temptation to give their brew another shot, and I'm thrilled that I did. The price is right on the money - £2.40 for a regular cup and £2.80 for a large one.

But what truly sets this place apart is the warm welcome from the cafe manager, Jesus. His positive and inviting attitude immediately made me feel at home. The service here is not just fast; it's exceptionally professional. I was pleasantly surprised by the extensive array of sandwiches and bagels that could be toasted to perfection upon request.

It was soggy because the moisture from the potato had gone into the bread. 100% a stale...

Very delicious and hot panini, the ham they use has a nice flavour! I also got myself the Russian caravan tea out of all the lovely varieties to pick from. that was served immediately so very hot! It has a nice taste but its not quite strong enough for my taste but maybe that's because it didn't have time to steep properly. The staff member that served me was nice and very quick with heating my food and making my tea :] Please give a visit if you fancy something nice that isn't...
