About this place
Banyan Bar & Kitchen sits inside the grand Old Post Office building right on City Square, a short walk from Leeds train station. The space has been beautifully decorated with a floral theme, and there is a spacious outdoor terrace as well as the main indoor dining room, so you have options whatever the weather.
The menu draws on flavours from around the world, with main dishes alongside a generous range of small and sharing plates. There is a dedicated children's menu, and the kitchen caters well for gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian diets too. Dishes that have gone down well with visitors include the Korean burger, bang bang chicken fried rice, potato croquettes, and the vegan hash.
The venue is open from 10am at weekends and 11am on weekdays, with late closing on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. It has a wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating, and facilities throughout, making it a straightforward choice for families with varying needs.
