About Residence Cafe Bar Headingley

On North Lane in Headingley, Residence Cafe Bar serves breakfast through dinner, with bottomless brunch offered alongside the regular menu. Plates include eggs residence, Turkish eggs and Eggs Benedict, alongside a breakfast sandwich and French brioche toast with vanilla mascarpone and blueberry compote. Fish and chips takes the form of a fried haddock fillet in a soft bun with a side salad. Gluten-free bread is available on request, and a kids menu and vegetarian options round out the choices. For breakfast, groups under six are seated first come first served, with no bookings taken. Dogs are welcome inside. Cocktails are also served for those dropping in outside meal times.

Customer Review Summary

Eggs residence comes up again and again as the dish to get, whether ordered straight or made gluten free, with reviewers noting the request was handled without issue and the substitute bread held up well. Close behind, the French brioche toast with vanilla mascarpone and blueberry compote draws praise for its honeycomb topping, though one reviewer felt the center was plain, and the Turkish eggs and breakfast sandwich also get recommended. Coffee and lattes are repeatedly called excellent, and the fish and chips and Caesar salad get singled out too. Several mention it gets busy, with breakfast bookings unavailable for groups under six, and it running on the pricey side, though most call the portions worth it. Bottomless brunch comes up often as a favorite, with servers keeping drinks flowing fast even when, as one reviewer puts it, the place was "rammed." One solo diner with social anxiety highlighted never feeling out of place there.

    “I had such a wonderful breakfast at this place in Headingley. Everything we ordered arrived looking absolutely beautiful, especially the eggs which were cooked to perfection. The flavours were spot on. I particularly loved the addition of fresh dill on the savoury egg dish, which paired so well with the crusty bread. The coffee was excellent too, served with lovely latte art that really showed the care put into every cup. It is the perfect spot for a relaxed morning.”

    “Really good food and service. Had a lovely time and this restaurant has a great array of options. My server Molly was great and took good care of me and my family. We agreed it’s one of the best brunches we’ve ever had. Recommend getting the Turkish eggs with a side of skin on fries!”

    “A lovely place with a great atmosphere. I had excellent fish and chips – a perfectly fried haddock fillet served in a soft bun with a fresh side salad. The Caesar salad was outstanding as well. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Leeds or the charming suburb of Headingley.”
