Lazy inauthentic tourist spot

Pre-frozen tasteless falafel, pittiful side salad and a mush Welsh rarebit (?!) I thought this was middle eastern, it is flavourless and only attracts those who feel like they should support alternative venues. Absolute rip off that has somehow survived.

Pros: The serving staff, Some of the decor

Cons: Terrible chef who glared at us returning food, Dry tasteless microwaved food, Overpriced crap

Good variety

Good variety of dishes and a nice insight into some Persian/fusion food with friendly people. The vegan Baklava is really good!
Although it is a vegetarian restaurant ,we do think some of the vegetarian dishes could easily be made vegan without suffering the taste.

Pros: Good variety

Nice lunch stop

A good find, close to the town centre. Had some unusual dishes which made a lovely change. Food freshly prepared and tasty. Popular little place with a good atmosphere.

Tasty food, friendly service

A cosy spot in the centre of town, slightly to one side of the main streets and bustle. Cosy, with a few seats in the small area out front too. The food is tasty with a decent vegan selection. The Persian platters and the bread are particularly delicious.

Pros: Homemade, tasty food, Good service, Central but fairly quiet

Cons: Moderately priced rather than cheap

Warm, inviting with delicious food

Leila’s Kitchen is such a lovely, homely and inviting spot in Hebden Bridge. The staff are so welcoming and attentive, and their little cafe is so charming. The food was delicious and perfectly portioned. Huge shout out to the cakes…SO delicious! My non-vegan mum had the halloumi wrap and Victoria sponge, and I had the vegan mezze and the vegan chocolate orange cake…all absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much Leila’s Kitchen!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Dog friendly, LGBTQ friendly , Lovely, attentive staff

A tad bland

Friendly service and pleasant atmosphere/decor but the food was disappointingly bland for the price.

Always love it here

Been here many times and I am always impressed with the food, service and atmosphere.
The menu is full with tasty vegan options along with classic Persian teas. A great place for a meal but also some cake and a cup of tea. They have a wide range of vegan cakes and pastries with a deal for £5 - a drink and a cake.

Pros: Lots of tasty vegan options , Nice atmosphere , Great staff

Cosy café with tonnes of options

So many vegan options to choose from! We had mochas, a burger, and an aubergine dip with bread. The burger was so fresh tasting! Dog friendly too which was a massive bonus as it was too cold to sit outside.

Pros: Lots of options, Dog friendly, Lovely staff

Nice vegan full english

My partner and I both had the vegan full English which was nice, but not the best I have ever had. It doesn't come with vegan bacon and there was coriander over it which I am not a fan of. But the sausages it came with were delicious and the staff were very friendly. I was slightly disappointed that there wasn't a single vegan cake/dessert in the cabinet as I love a cake. The vegan options on the menu were very limited with several 'vegan option available' but it being unclear whether this was the same meal just without the non vegan elements such as removing the egg and the feta. Overall though we did enjoy the food and would go back if we wanted a full English.

Best tofu ever

We had breakfast here on Sunday. We both chose the vegan Persian breakfast: feta, cucumber, tomatoes, walnuts, parsley, mint, bread, and honestly some of the best tofu we’ve ever eaten (including in Japan!). Wish we had been staying in Hebden Bridge longer and could have returned to try more things from the menu. Really lovely relaxed atmosphere and nice staff too.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Relaxing , Excellent food

Great food, great welcome.

A small place but lovely! Friendliest and most polite staff, and delicious food. Visited with non vegan relatives who found what we had as vegans, and what they had as non vegans, delicious.
Well worth a visit if in Hebden Bridge or the area.

Pros: Atmosphere, Staff, Food!

Friendly local cafe

Leila's is our favourite local cafe. It's particularly good for breakfast but is generally a good stop for a cuppa or a light lunch. The owners are lovely - very friendly and welcoming.

Warm, friendly staff & amazing food

I had an amazing lunch at Leila's Kitchen last week, I can't wait to go back to try more of the menu. The food was fresh and incredibly flavoursome - I had mirza ghasemi starter followed by a falafel wrap. It was so good to have a choice as a vegan too.The falafel wrap was huge and so full of different flavour notes, by far one of the best I've ever had 😍. The staff were really lovely too, incredibly friendly and warm, we were made to feel very welcome. Thank you! 🙏

Pros: Great choice for vegans , Really tasty food, Lovely staff

We phoned ahead to order a takeaway from Leila's Kitchen, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The food itself was delicious, with fantastically fresh vegetables and subtle, tasty flavours. I particularly enjoyed the vine leaves. Excellent smoothies too.

Pros: Friendly, helpful staff, Plenty of vegan options, Really fresh ingredients

Great food and lovely people!

I love the vegan breakfast here but yesterday I had the vegan mezze platter which was delicious and fresh. The service is attentive and the cafe is very cosy. It feels much more of a family business than a lot of places in Hebden Bridge. I would recommend Leila's to vegans, vegetarians and anyone really. It's unique and lovely.

Pros: Great coffee, Deliciouls vegan food, Friendly staff
