Outlaws Yacht Club

You'll find yourself doing a double-take at this New York Street spot that's managed to nail the elusive balance between daytime deli and proper night out destination. The nautical theme could easily veer into gimmicky territory, but the retro styling and rotating local artwork keep things grounded in proper Leeds cool rather than seaside tat. The deli platters are genuinely excellent – think quality charcuterie and cheese boards that actually justify the ££ price point, paired with a solid craft beer selection that changes regularly. Come evening, the guest DJs kick in and the whole place shifts gear without feeling forced. It's the sort of place that works whether you're grabbing lunch with your mum or settling in for a proper session with mates.
