Out of the Woods is a welcoming family cafe located at Granary Wharf in Leeds city centre, right by the water. It's a relaxed spot where parents can grab a proper coffee and a toastie while children can enjoy the space, with both indoor and outdoor seating to suit all weathers.
The warm, cosy atmosphere and friendly staff make it ideal for families with younger children who need a break, whether you're stopping by before catching a train, working remotely for the afternoon, or just taking time out. The riverside setting is lovely, and on sunny days the outdoor seating area is particularly pleasant. Free wifi is available if you want to settle in for a bit longer.
Facilities
What to bring
- A change of clothes or wipes for messy hands and faces
- Layers or a light jacket (the riverside location can be breezy)
- Your own cups if you prefer to reduce waste, though they serve hot drinks in proper cups
- A laptop or tablet if you plan to settle in with the free wifi
- Snacks for younger children while you wait for food
Top tips
- Arrive before 8:30 AM on weekdays if you want a quieter, more relaxed experience with your younger children
- Check the Toastie Special on the board - it's a favourite with regulars and good value
- The outdoor seating is lovely on dry days but can be quite exposed, so bring a waterproof or check the forecast first
- It's perfectly positioned near Platform 17, so ideal if you're travelling by train and want a proper coffee instead of chain cafe options
- The window bench inside is a great spot for watching the canal whilst keeping children entertained nearby
