The newest branch of this stylish Greek/Mediterranean restaurant Olive Tree Brasserie Est 2007, this Leeds location (launched at the end of 2023) channels a slightly new direction, transporting you to the perfect Mediterranean destination. It's open, bright and bohemian character is the perfect backdrop to a lovely brunch, lunch, or dinner.
A couple of weeks ago on a Saturday, I met up with some of my foodie friends in Leeds where we lunched at Olive Tree Brasserie (South Parade) and what a lunch it was. I think we underestimated the portion sizes as there wasn't really a lunch/light bite meal option (The Meze Lunch offer is only available Monday to Friday 11am - 4pm which offers a selection of dishes at £14.95), otherwise I think we'd have opted for this. So safe to say I was full for the rest of the day after my feast.
My food was really good. I had my heart set on a Gyros so went with the Pork which came with Marinated grilled Pork, salad and tzatziki in a flatbread and seasoned fries (£10.95), but greedy little me also ordered a starter of Halloumi Pastourma (Greek cured beef sausage) which was delicious (GF £7.25). I enjoyed a lovely mocktail on my visit too; Berry Cup; Blackberry, blueberry, cranberry, apple, lemonade (£5.95).
The restaurant has a very open, light natural atmosphere. We were seated downstairs near the kitchen and it was still quite light with the windows and lots of plants, but upstairs looked an even more appealing area to dine indeed. A lovely setting for meeting friends for lunch in Leeds! I would advise to book a table ahead of your visit, especially if dining here over the weekend, as it was fairly busy.
Their A La Carte Menu consists of so much choice from Appetisers, Starters, Mains, Grill dishes, Meze, Sunday Dinner etc, including a wide range of Vegan Friendly plates. They also offer a Bottomless Brunch on a Saturday for 37.95pp with UNLIMITED food & drinks for 90 minutes! From eggs royale and kalamari, to avocado and halloumi PLUS unlimited drinks including; raspberry rush, prosecco, mimosa, aperol spritz and cold pints; it sounds like a decent city centre option. Enjoy 2-4-1 on cocktails at Olive Tree Brasserie Leeds Monday – Friday from 4pm – 8pm (2 of the same cocktail).
