Leeds is known to be one of the best student cities in the country. As well as Leeds’s nightlife, it has some great restaurants with student friendly prices.
Mexican dishes are becoming increasingly popular in the UK and Cielo Blanco serves up the very best that Leeds has to offer. Whether you fancy a big juicy burrito, some street food-style platters or a healthy sharing of high quality nachos with guac, this is your place to be. It also has a skylit terrace, which is never a bad thing.
This Italian cuisine is one of the most popular and budget-friendly in all of Leeds. All types of great quality pizzas, pastas and meatballs are on offer here for under a tenner. Located in student central and with a bring your own booze policy, it is little wonder that La Besi has students coming back again and again.
While sounding like an exclusive club for former criminals, don’t let this place fool you as it is one of the coolest restaurants in the whole of Leeds. Situated on New York Street in the city centre, take your pick from platters of meats, cheeses, stews, sourdough sandwiches and much more. All of these can be washed down with some of the highest quality craft beer that there is. This isn’t a place to be missed.
Tucked away towards the top of the famous shopping centre, Trinity Kitchen is one of the gems that many could miss out on if they are just passing on the street. With a sort of hip food court design, it has permanent residents with the likes of Chicago Rib Shack and Chip + Fish, as well as six street food vendors that change every month. This ensures that no two visits are the same, with street food coming in the form of Greek, Colombian and American style hotdogs just to name a few.
Located right in the centre of the student haven of Headingley, Thai Sabai serves up great food at student-friendly prices. With an incredible range of thai food including extensive vegetarian options, you are certain to find something to tickle your taste buds. Pro tip: if you get in before 7, make sure you check out their two-course, £7.95 special. It is one of the best meal deals in the whole region.
