New Mediterranean bakery launches in Leeds

Having already established itself in the Victoria Quarter, Le Blé’s newest location is set to bring a taste of the Med to a different part of the city. The bakery and café will serve handmade, freshly-baked goods, inspired by authentic Mediterranean recipes.

Le Blé will open 7 days a week, 8am-7pm from Monday to Saturday and 9am-5pm on Sundays*. The name Le Blé translates to ‘blue’ in Greek, a homage to the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, and also means ‘wheat’ in French.

Step inside and you’ll be transported to the sun-soaked Mediterranean coast with its rich, authentic flavours from Greece, Italy, France, Turkey and Lebanon.

In addition to freshly baked pastries and artisan coffee, Le Blé offers a range of bespoke and off-the-shelf hand-crafted birthday cakes, perfect for those celebrating a special occasion.

For coffee enthusiasts, Le Blé is offering a subscription-based service, where customers can pay £30 per month for one free drink per day, plus an additional 15% discount across the entire menu.

Founder Apostolos Michailidis shared his excitement about the opening: “We’re thrilled to be expanding Le Blé’s presence in Leeds and look forward to bringing a fresh, authentic taste of the Mediterranean to more people across the city!”

Stephanie James, Marketing Manager at The Light added: “We’re proud to offer a diverse and delicious range of dining options, and we’re delighted to welcome Le Blé to our community here at The Light.”
