Feedback
I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant, thanks to the personalized service in an intimate and stylish setting. The food was outstanding! My partner and I attended the yakitori evening, which was truly exceptional. The dishes were perfectly prepared and beautifully presented, offering great value for the price. The wine and cocktail selection was also impressive. I would definitely recommend this place and look forward to returning for more!
This is definitely one of the top 5 Reubens I've ever had! The coffee was excellent, the service was great, and who doesn't enjoy a good atmosphere? The cakes from Porterhouse are also fantastic!
It is a stylish, modern café during the day, perfect for grabbing a quick brew and a bite to eat. However, at night, it transforms into a trendy cocktail bar with a lively atmosphere. The Vanguard is conveniently located in the heart of the city.
The best brunch I had in leeds. the buttermilk pancakes so much loved. coffee was also great. beautiful place to sit in and personal were really friendly. enjoyed it so much we went back to try one night. so good. the French 75 cocktail was perfect. recommend the Korean bbq duck and the black pudding bon bons real eat heaven.
Fantastic little spot! The decor has a beautiful, neo-Scandinavian feel, minimalist but making a strong statement as to their style and substance. As soon as I came through the door I was greeted by an extremely friendly Geordie fellow, with one of the single most heart warming smiles I’ve ever seen, and was seated in a gorgeous, classic chair (my bottom can confirm they are real leather) and after ordering a Mocha and a bowl of water for my dog, I was treated to an amazing coffee from a delightful young man in a chequered shirt. The food was tremendous, I had the Vanguard Breakfast which is essentially a fantastic shakshuka, and after seeing the chef emerge from the kitchen from a moment it’s easy to see why the food is so good, he was so happy and clearly enjoying himself in this amazing little gem and that really shone through in the food. Will be visiting again.
