About Sports Cafe
Sports Cafe is a cafe in Leeds, sitting on Chapel St as a straightforward local spot. The name signals its core identity, a place built around sport and casual gathering, and the setting keeps things simple and accessible. The format leans toward watching and talking about sport rather than a broader dining or specialty-coffee focus, which shapes the kind of visit it suits. Seating works for groups following a match or catching up over a drink, and takeaway is an option for those passing through. The atmosphere stays rooted in its sporting theme, making it a natural stop on a day out in the city.

“Cancelled my order because they didn’t have anything in stock. You’re a breakfast cafe and don’t have egg, sausage bacon in stock then why are you open? Been charged already so will have to wait a few days to get it back in my bank. Will go to one of their competitors down the street 👍”

“Just been for 2 take away ham salad sandwiches 1 with salad cream 1 without salad cream and no butter . Just got home and both have salad cream on and butter even though the paper it's come in says dry”
- Brett Cusworth
“The breakfast sandwiches are excellent; they're generously sized and bursting with flavor. The staff are consistently polite and provide quick service. The cafe and tables are always clean and well-maintained during my visits and I will continue to keep coming back when in the area.”

“i used to really love this place. the foods great but it’s starting to become annoying that 4/5 days in a row at a time it’s not taking orders. it feels like getting the golden ticket if you can actually get food”
- Donna Cartwright
“My family and I absolutely adore this place. We ordered as a one off months ago but it’s now a weekly treat. The food, the service, the preparation, everything is spot on!!! We have tried other places but they just don’t compare. Keep doing what you’re doing please Sports Cafe because we think you’re fab 😃 …”

Customer Review Summary
Sports Cafe earns strong loyalty for its generous, well cooked breakfasts and sandwiches, with reviewers repeatedly praising the breakfast sandwiches and traditional English breakfasts as excellent and good value, alongside a new £3 meal deal. Most describe the staff as friendly and polite, and the cafe as bright and clean, with several making it a weekly visit. A recurring frustration is that the cafe frequently stops taking orders or runs out of basics like eggs, sausage and bacon, leaving some diners feeling you need luck to get served. A few also report takeaway mix-ups, including sandwiches arriving with butter and salad cream despite being ordered dry, and one noted staff smoking out the back with the smell drifting through during a meal.
