If you follow me on Instagram you will know that I spend more time in the Ivy than I do my actual house so you can imagine my delight when they announced they were opening a restaurant in Leeds. To celebrate, I was invited to a fancy breakfast (a pregnant person’s dream) and it really was as lovely as I’d imagined. It’s on two floors which I love and the decor is dreamy. LOTS of green. I already feel that I’ll be doing lots of lunching and brunching here while I’m on maternity leave. In fact, since it’s opened I’ve already enjoyed a lunch date with friends. ALL the arancini balls, please.
The breakfast menu is one of dreams with everything from avocado on toast with perfectly poached eggs to stacks of fluffy pancakes and of course breakfast cocktails.
I opted for the green juice but I’m dreaming of the mimosas. The pancakes came in a huge stack topped with berries and yoghurt and there were lots of pastries and jams to enjoy while we waited. Tea on tap. I can’t tell you how luxurious the breakfast options are if breakfast food is your favourite meal of the day, I recommend you skip down there and start making your way down the menu from the top.
Ok, so who fancies a breakfast date? Have you tried the Ivy Leeds yet?
*I was treated to complimentary breakfast courtesy of The Ivy but my obsession with their pancakes is 100% my own.
