Lovely breakfast this morning. £8.50 for all this. Finished off with a Peach, mango amd passionfruit smooth which was £3.49, it was incredible. You could tell it was made in house too. When I am back in Leeds ill be sure to go again, im the summer the outside seating looks great along the river but unfortunately was raining on this occasion. Staff were very welcoming upon arrival and when we was leaving. 10/10.
Really enjoyed my breakfast at Riveresque. My Mrs enjoyed her bacon, sausage and tomato sandwich. Quality food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Will definitely come again for my breakfast on the next stay over in Leeds.
Such an extensive menu, it’s amazing how everything is prepared so quickly in the limited space behind the counter. Handy if you want somewhere different to go for a snack whilst changing 🚂 - a short walk from Granary Wharf.
Just what you need on an overcast Saturday following a heavy Friday night. A proper traditional Full English breakfast is an like an oasis in a sea of avocado toast and micro greens that seem to populate cafe menus nowadays. Bacon was cooked to perfection - crispy without being burnt and the seasoning on the fried eggs was a nice touch with nice gooey yolks. Black pudding could have done with being a bit crispier but that's nitpicking. I'll be back!
Fantastic breakfast sandwich and super reasonable prices. Our dog could come and hang out with us while we ate breakfast watching the river. Great cafe, food, and awesome staff. This place rocks!
