Restaurants

Battered

Leeds' first gourmet fish & chip restaurant suitably promotes itself as "a fresh twist on an old favourite"; serving all the traditional family favourites such as curry sauce and scraps, alongside bottles of bubbly and upmarket wines.

If you don't fancy the (already praised) traditional haddock & chips, then you can always tuck into sophisticated dishes such as swordfish, crab cakes, lemon sole or a rather wonderful grilled halibut steak.
