What a great cafe! Met my daughter and my friend here for brunch. What a lovely bright and welcoming place. Menu is great and coffee is just the best.

I am so disappointed to have to write this review, but 3 months have elapsed since I emailed Laynes, in response to their request for feedback, and I have received no response from them whatsoever. So.. I like Laynes, I like the food, the Turkish eggs are good, there is choice for vegetarians and meat eaters. So far so good. I had brunch here with a friend, and when the bill arrived I didn't feel the need to scrutinise it in detail and so simply used my credit card on their proferred handheld card machine. The machine came up with "add a tip?" and so I added more than 10% and paid. Only when reading the bill afterwards did I see that Laynes had ALREADY ADDED a 10% tip. So I had paid 10% which they automatically added, and then more than 10% in addition. On a £40 or so bill, I paid more than £10 in service. The service was OK, nothing to write home about. It was not worth 25% of the bill. Honestly - I think this is a bit sneaky. If you include the service charge automatically, then please do not have the card machine display "add a tip?" or, if it has to, then ask the waitress to point this out to the hapless diner. Otherwise your customers might feel a bit 'conned' into paying twice. If you request feedback, and get it, please respond rather than ignoring your clients. A simple apology would have sufficed at that point. I am posting this in the hope that others will learn from my error.

My friends and I had lunch today at Layne's. It was our first visit and we all loved it. It was my suggestion and my friends said it was an excellent choice. I chose poached eggs on sourdough toast. My eggs were perfectly poached and I enjoyed my lunch very much. My dog Sapphy was with us and the waitress brought her water in a little dish, which Sapphy appreciated very much. Everyone was so welcoming, it was a joy to be there. I can't wait to introduce some more of my friends.

Went here for brunch with a friend. First impressions were that it was a standard coffee shop/cafe and it was a bit of a tight squeeze inside. Nice menu with good variety and choice but definitely expensive for what it was. I had the Turkish eggs which were nice but nothing special. I ordered a side of bacon which cost £4 for just two single slices. In my opinion this is very expensive and overpriced. Although we had pre booked, the service was slow. It took a while for both our drinks and food orders to be taken, and then for the products to actually arrive. The staff had an air of arrogance about them and I wasn’t overly impressed to see a 10% service charge automatically added to the bill. Overall, the food was okay but I probably wouldn’t go again

Just arrived in Leeds and TA brought us here. Sunny day and Laynes was very busy. There's a seating area with table service or you can queue as we did and sit outside. Few tables and v close together so if you get someone who likes to deliver a lecture in a loud voice, as we did, then you can't really escape. The café is on the main drag down from the station so a good spot for people watching, talking of 'drag'. Probably the first time I've had a savoury Danish but a great idea and absolutely delicious. Plenty of choice for vegetarians too so we were both happy. Would definitely return, hopefully when quieter.

I have been using this place for years. I’ve never had a problem. But since new business partners have been introduced it’s not great. I ordered the same thing I always get, kebab, chips, no pitta, chilli sauce, garlic and salad. It was over an hour late, the only food that was hot was the salad! The chilli sauce was different and tasted awful. I’m hoping it was a one off, but it’s not the only bad experience I’m aware of since the changes.

There is now no other takeaways open unless I go to a different town and pay a fortune in delivery. I will not be making an order here again and I recommend you don’t bother! Absolute joke and unacceptable!

my first complaint for this company as I've never had a problem before. Rude delivery guy, I understand he was in a rush but I let him into the flat multiple times then expected me to get from the top floor to the ground floor within a minute otherwise he'd leave it. Even the caretaker of the building said he was "arrogant and rude". Honestly it would've been quicker for him to come up to my flat than wait for me to call the elevator from the bottom floor all the way to the top floor.

We ordered two pizzas. The parmo pizza was very good. However, the meat feast was unedable. For some reason it was overloaded with salt. So, after a few bites it went in the bin. We never used Espresso Pizza before, but it is needless to say we will never use it again. Nobody can afford to throw a £13 pizza in the bin.

chicken parmo was terrible, there was no cheese on it and there was an option to add topings, I wish I never bothered, the toppings were off I'm sure, salad was terrible cucumber was dry and the rest of it had turned to vinegar from being in the tub too long. garlic masked the taste so I ate some of it. The cookies were OK. Overall a solid 1 out of 10! zero effort and doesn't care about service, will not order again.

Stumbled across this little cafè wondering around Leeds City Centre. I have lived in Leeds for 40 years and there is so much that I haven't discovered but Laynes is a smashing find. Having a lovely cup of Yorkshire Tea at Laynes, a really lovely cafè in Leeds City Centre near Train Station.. Not the cheapest but far better than most, very cosy and wonderful food.. Staff very friendly, clean and welcoming environment, city prices, food beautiful. Try the Yorkshire Fishcake Sandwich, Battered Potato and Fish, tatare sauce, Iceberg lettuce, pea puree in a Brioche Bun I didn't have it gent next to me ordered it and looked Amazing I was jealous. I had Turkish Egg with were very nice full of flavour and I really enjoyed them.

Busy brunch/lunch spot with an interesting menu that combines European and American standards with more interesting Eastern Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern options.

Went here based on reviews, decided to try our luck as walk-ins and if not, there is so much choice on offer nearby. Was a short wait outside in the rain. Basic no frills cafe seating. Popular. Adequate menu selection. Food presented well and tasted fine….just not sure why it was served warm (-0.5*). Was not checked-on after serving, with the usual ‘Is everything ok?’ and when asked for the bill noticed the auto-adding of service charge (imo -0.5*). Would I return? After I’ve tried the other brunch places in Leeds. Would I recommend? For now, no. Maybe after I’ve given them a second visit.

Sunday breakfast - first impressions ok but tables are too close to each other. So close that you are practically involved in the conversations of those wedged in either side of you. Who it turned out were the kind of people who order halfcaf almond oatmilk mongolian lattes with a sprinkling of chameleon dust and a side of BS which I could have done without at 9.30 on a Sunday. The food was merely ok, poached eggs themselves were good although oversalted but the sourdough toast was overdone to the point it was nearly teeth breakingly hard. Coffee was good, I'd have liked another cup but getting anyone's attention was impossible so gave up and went elsewhere.

I had visited this cafe on trips to Leeds before lockdown but was not prepared for the well designed expansion, both at ground level and in the basement, that had taken place. Laynes is in an ideal location very close to the city railway station, but nicely tucked away. Great for travellers arriving to pause before embarking on a day’s shopping or business, also great to pop in to before catching your train - and a preferable alternative to the bland offerings from the chains. I was there for breakfast and had 2 poached eggs on sourdough toast- the eggs were probably the most perfectly cooked I have ever had. The cappuccino was also excellent. I would definitely recommend and will aim to visit on my next trip to Leeds. The staff are very friendly and helpful and although busy they found me a table quite quickly.
