Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Leeds worth it?

Absolutely! There’s no better way to experience the beautiful city of Leeds and its culture than a food tour with a local guide.

What is the most famous food in Leeds?

Leeds is a city full of flavors waiting to be discovered. From fresh, locally sourced meats and fish to classic Yorkshire dishes like hearty pies, roast dinners, and freshly baked Yorkshire puddings, there’s something for every palate. The city is also known for its artisan cheeses, farm-fresh produce, and charming bakeries serving traditional sweets and pastries. Leeds’ diverse neighborhoods each offer their own culinary character, making it a true destination for food lovers.

Are tourists welcome in Leeds?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Leeds tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Leeds.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Leeds experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.

Do the tours accommodate vegetarian or gluten-free diets?

Vegetarian-Friendly Tours but vegan, gluten-free, or kosher options may be limited. Please share dietary restrictions upon booking for best accommodation.
