Leaf & Bean — Restaurant in Sunderland

Well what can I say. Washington's hidden gem. Went for brunch but stayed longer as daughter joined us for lunch. Fantastic food which also caters for a fussy vegetarian. Everything we had was delicious. The place has a real buzz and the staff are exceptionally friendly. Nothing was too much bother. It's now my new fave place to go. 10/10 for food, ambience, service, staff, value for money and cleanliness. Takeaways are offered and there is a fabulous selection of great gifts. It's also dog friendly and there is a space out back for private hire. Also they do buffets. As if that's not enough the super talented florist produces beautiful fresh bouquets and dried flower arrangements. Without a shadow of a doubt I will be back. Thanks for making...

We ordered two breakfast burritos and requested two items were removed, when they came the waitress told us they added a bit more sausage to both to compensate. The cafe itself was very well presented, clean and well looked after. If I could have given it 6 stars I would have.

10/10 would recommend. And will be visiting again with other family and friends so they can experience this...

Today me and my family came to have a little birthday breakfast for my 1 year old, and I must say the coffee here is beautiful!! I ordered a full on breakfast which was one of my favourite breakfasts I’ve ever had! The women who served us were so polite and professional, they really made my daughters day by holding a mini Victoria sponge aside and singing happy birthday. It was just all so lovely of them. I would definitely recommend as they are excellent caterers! I bought myself a loaded cookie and I must say me and my partner think it’s amazing! And my daughter highly approved of your Victoria sponge! Didn’t get the chance to thank them all for what they did and I wished I’d...
