Looking for a cozy spot to relax or have a date? Out of the Woods is your choice at Leeds.🌿☕ The warm wooden interiors, soft lighting, and chill vibe - the kind of place where you can sit for hours, sip coffee, and just chill. We ordered our usual drinks: Mocha and Flat White, which were good quality. The vibe here really sets this place apart. We spent an hour reading in this Cafe. It’s all about taking your time and enjoying the moment. If the weather is good, you can sit on the tables outside as the location is lovely by the canal. Next time we’ll be back, n definitely be trying their grilled cheese and soups! If you’re in Leeds, don’t miss it. By fishenjoylife
A really great little place - perfect for a quick affordable bite, to set up your laptop and work (wifi access), a date or just a good coffee break. There’s a long bench inside along the window as well as some chairs and tables - more outside. The ingredients tasted fresh and the coffee was really good! Lots of flavour in the coffee which I really enjoyed! Staff are happy and friendly and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. I hope to be back soon :)
Excellent coffee in Granary Wharf! We got our espresso beverages from this nice little place every day (twice a day) while staying at a nearby hotel for a few days recently. Perfect latte every time! Great toasties and fresh baked goods. This place is really cosy. It has an indoor and outdoor seating. Staffs are friendly. Fully recommend!
Conveniently located by the entrance to Platform 17, ideal for getting your drinks and food to go. Welcoming, friendly staff provide a speedy service. Coffee from Darkwoods 👍🏻 - be sure to check the Toastie Special
It's been a while since I've felt inspired to write a review but I hope the girls who worked Tuesday a.m. see this. (Excellent) coffee and (delicious) granola and toast aside, the two girls serving were exceptional. They were friendly, thoughtful and their quiet chatter created a warm and comfortable atmosphere. I have worked in hospitality all my life and it is rare to come across people so naturally talented at creating a great space as they did. Well done that team!
