14 restaurants our readers wish they could bring back to Leeds from decades past

We asked our readers which restaurants from decades past they wish would reopen here in Leeds in the present day.

Leeds has a great food scene and we are spoiled for choice when it comes to great restaurants but we wanted to reminisce about some of the eateries that are sadly no longer with us.

We asked our readers to share their memories of their favourite restaurants from the past in and around Leeds.

Our readers did not disappoint, they gave us tonnes of great suggestions from La Grillade, Da Mario to The Milano.

Readers shared their memories of birthday meals, anniversary occasions and of course their favourite dishes - click through this article to see where they recommended.
