This honey cake originated in Germany in the Middle Ages, and became a staple of the Jewish kitchen, finding a place as the traditional cake of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. It symbolises a hope for a sweet and fruitful new year. Many dismiss honey cake as one of those traditional staples that simply has to be made and served, regardless of the fact that nobody actually likes it, which reminds me of Christmas pudding. Does anybody really like Christmas pudding?
From absolutely nothing a few years ago, Leeds is now littered with top-rate independent coffee shops. The latest one is Mrs Atha’s a quirky little place on that odd, desolate feeling pedestrianised road behind House of Fraser. They’re springing up all over the place, these indies, to such an extent that it’s possible to say that if you still buy coffee from Starbucks, Cafe Nero or – God forbid – Costa Coffee, you should be run out of town.
I've visited Mrs Atha's before now, it was last year.... There is no pretencion it's just a nice place to be. Mrs Atha's serves an all day breakfast and also lunch type foods....On this day R and I were visiting for a spot of lunch to fuel us for an afternoon of shopping. R decided to go for a sausage sandwich from the all day breakfast menu - served in wholegrain bread with grilled sausages. I went for the pulled pork sandwich (fad alert!) served in ciabatta with crisps and homemade coleslaw. The pulled pork was marinated in a BBQ sauce which had seeped through nicely in to the ciabatta. A good bread to chose for such as sandwich as you don't want it disintegrating in your hands as you eat...
The shop has a very nice hipster vibe with all the jazz. Its interior is authentic. The brewing equipment looks amazing and all the guys clearly knows what a good coffee is. We have visited as a group and had many coffees and types of coffees. I had a latte that was very delicious, you definitely don’t need sugar in it. The cakes and food looked yummy too, but haven’t tried it. The toilets look cool.
You need to find a parking lot close by as the place hasn’t got its own parking.
Had a long awaited lunch stop at Mrs Atha’s after many a recommendation and am glad we finally visited!! Service was outstanding and the coffee and food were both delicious. Up there with the best veggie sausage sandwich I’ve had, pic doesn’t do it justice, would recommend !!
Looking forward to returning and trying some of the sweet treats next time !!
Manager was great, super attentive and friendly but not pushy. Gave good recommendations too. Pancakes were incredible and the eggs benedict was fantastic. Great vibe for morning brunch
Lovely vibe, with indoor and outdoor seating (shame about the building site opposite, but can't be helped!). Friendly and attentive staff, even on a very busy bank holiday lunchtime.
Granola with vegan coconut yoghurt was great, and the courgette hash had rave reviews too. Cakes looked fab. Coffee was strong and well made.
Not the cheapest, but acceptable for the overall quality.

What a super place! Great café, great vibe, two of the loveliest and most welcoming chaps working. Gluten free available and choices for vegetarians and vegans. Brilliant range of super looking bakes but I was by then too full to sample them. I had dark Ecuador hot chocolate and the vegan mushrooms on toast with spinach, roasted chestnuts, sun dried tomatoes and a basil dressing. It was a great, tasty plateful. Well presented. Has additional outdoor seating to the front on the pavement. Highly recommended and shall definitely revisit. Yum!!
Stupid US colonial rabid Anglophile here, so bear with. This joint was under my fab Airbnb rental while in town for kid’s graduation. Despite major construction out front, rancid bitter long black, and smell of paint and lacquer through rear door, LOVED IT. Just delish and good Summer of Love Cali tunes playing (Grace Slick needed to not return for Starship awfulness btw. Go Ask Alice is everything.) Get the bacon however you can, pancakes amaze, thick toast inspires. Go and stay forever. Or until you need a loo, I guess. Goodbye forever, Leeds, Loiners, Humber. (Most likely 😞.) Wish my COVID kid luck in the beastie world. Me out.
Really amazing pancakes, like seriously try them. Overall I’d definitely recommend it’s cosy, the food and drinks are great. Service was also really good. I can also highly recommend the matcha latte.
Very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Coffee was superb and the scrambled eggs and toast cooked to perfection. Friendly and efficient service and good value.
Visited because my wife had read good things about the vegan options and she was not wrong. An astonishingly good cup of coffee too!
The staff were also very attentive, and nothing seemed too much trouble.
Was struggling to find somewhere for a decent breakfast in Leeds city centre but happy to stumble on this place, thanks for the recommendation from Whitelocks. Great food, service and excellent music choice!
