Eat Your Greens, Leeds city centre review - Carefully crafted menu that's ideal for vegan diners
and live on Freeview channel 276
If you're heading along to this organic restaurant, wine bar and grocers on an evening then you'd be wise to book ahead as you could well find all the tables taken, even if it's midweek.
Set up by neighbouring bar Outlaws Yacht Club and the team behind Grub and Grog a few years ago, this spot on New York Street is a great option for vegan and vegetarian diners.

Hide AdArriving flustered after a late escape from the office, I'm immediately struck by the relaxed atmosphere and sense that life moves at an altogether more enjoyable pace here.
There are 15 or so tables around the edge of the room with the tiled bar/grocery store in the centre, complete with shelves full of organic vegetables and spice jars. Hanging plants and artwork add splashes of colour to the simple decor.
What’s the drinks selection like?
The rest of the world may be going cuckoo for craft beer and gin, but here the biggest focus is on natural wines with several pages of whites, reds, pink, orange and fizz from small independent producers to choose from by the glass, carafe and bottle.
There's a wide range of organic and natural ciders too as well as beer on draught and in bottles, spirits and an ever changing range of seasonal cocktails.
