Here are 10 of the most mouth-watering joints every foodie fan needs to visit.

Bundobust

It may have started life as a pop-up, but it didn't take long for the unique pairing of award-winning Indian street food and craft beer to win over hungry diners and the now permanent Leeds resident remains one of the city's best loved food spots.

The menu is inspired by the street food of India, which have been given a flavoursome modern twist - and it's all vegetarian-friendly too.

Fat Annie's

Street food doesn't come much simpler than the humble hot dog and Fat Annie's prime cuts of quality pork and beef, served in fresh artisan bread and loaded with toppings, are some of the best you'll taste - and they're gluten free too.

For something a little different try the El Toro, a spicy Spanish style chorizo sausage that packs a real punch.
