The Courtyard Cafe in Leeds

Good evening troops, Today we are reviewing ice boujee in Leeds and let me tell you, it was extremely boujee (not icy though it was pretty warm inside) First of all, you are VERY lucky that we did not rate you 4/5 star as you had no waffles in stock which is crazy for a dessert place as it is the most requested item along with eggs on toast (according to the Harvard study taken in 1666 when dessert shop really rose to fame after the great fire of desserts!) but you redeemed yourselves massively with the overall quality of food. The inside of this establishment was like being on extremely strong acid (not that we would know, we have never heard of drugs before;)xx) mum if you’re reading this stop going through my sock drawer, please. There were colours protruding from every corner and also there was a mysterious door in the toilet which I can only assume takes you to Narnia as I heard lions roaring behind it, whoever said yellow and green should never be seen without a colour inbetween was right, it looked like banana bogies. And trust me I’ve tried these and they aren’t nice. But the seats were as soft as a hedgehogs back which if you don’t already know is extremely soft and cushiony. I don’t know if indoor living is a new trend but the garden furniture indoor really stood out to me. Onto the food, we had 4 cookie doughs, which worked out as 3 each and they were absolutely delightful. I cannot describe in words how good this dessert was so I will describe in numbers instead, 8362618204762749477. The ice cream was creamy like a cow and fluffy like a newborn hen, it may be the nicest ice cream I have ever tasted, but I have only tasted 1 before so this may not be a fair comparison. But it worked impeccably well along with the cookie dough. The cookie dough tasted like a cookie that was doughy which is strange for cookie dough however it somehow worked, this is not a combination I would assume to work but wow wee, it certainly did! Presentation was a 10/10, taste was a 10/10 and ya mum is a 10/10. Bossman 1 and 2 worked together like a ship and a big iceberg, which means perfectly and that would a great idea for a film by the way, someone should make that, maybe me, our son Dave Kebab likes films, he was watching one recently about people pretending to be a centipede, I don’t know it ended but he didn’t sleep for 3 nights because he was so thrilled with the film, bless him he’s only 5. We thoroughly enjoyed this place and I would recommend it to absolutely anyone except from my mother in law because I hate her and she doesn’t deserve the pleasure of these desserts, Sandra if you’re reading this stop going through my sock drawer, NOW!!! Over and out you crumbly centipedes.

This was our first visit for over a year and first signs were good with a very busy restaurant on a Wednesday evening. Food and service were excellent! We shared the combo starter between 3 of us and this was definitely sufficient. It arrived sizzling with a delicious selection of pakoras , bhajis and lamb chops. We then shared a Bombay aloo , a gorgeous lamb and spinach balti and a wonderful chicken dish (can’t remember the name ) which contained pieces of peppers and onion. We will definitely be back soon!

We were warmly welcomed into the cafe with our little dog. The food was excellent. Staff so friendly. We will be back ASAP

Excellent food and service with exceptional toilets most impressed

The food was amazing ,but the portions was really small . I had a big box and not even half in the box just little bit inside.
