    Our brand new luxury student accommodation, The Glassworks, is set to open in September 2017.

    Here’s everything you need to know about the places you’ll be able to dine at if you choose a life of luxury in your student years:

    Restaurants – Independent


    Hasan’s Restaurant


    352-354 Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2HQ

    0113 278 8990

    Frequently dubbed the best curry house in the area, Hasan’s has built a reputation on well-deserved word-of-mouth praise. Treat your tastebuds without breaking the student bank.

    Viva Cuba


    342 Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2DS

    0113 275 0888

    There aren’t many places to enjoy true Cuban cuisine in the heart of Yorkshire, but Viva Cuba says viva food like no other Cuban establishment in England. Get involved.

    The Corner Café


    104 Burley Rd, Leeds LS3 1JP

    0113 234 6677

    Having turned 40 years old in 2016, The Corner Café is one of the most established and ultimately impressive eateries in the area. The curries there are something else and you’ll even find a selection of ales in there from local breweries to accompany your food.

    Restaurants – Chains


    Nando’s


    Cardigan Fields, Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2DG

    0113 279 6309

    A classic amongst the student fraternity in the UK, Nando’s never disappoints. You’ll have access to the best Portuguese-recipe chicken in the UK within minutes of your digs at The Glassworks.

    Frankie & Benny’s


    4 Cross Cardigan Terrace, Leeds LS4 2DJ

    0113 203 8888

    Combining Italian and American cuisines effortlessly, Frankie & Benny’s brings one of the most inviting restaurant environments around to the Kirkstall area and we’re bringing you closer to it with The Glassworks.

    Fast food


    Five Guys


    Cardigan Fields Leisure Park Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2DG

    0113 279 4446

    This very American burger chain has quickly become a very popular burger chain in the United Kingdom and it’s not difficult to see why. It’s the perfect student grub and it’s just minutes away from our new site.

    KFC


    Cardigan Fields Leisure Park, Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2BT

    OK, The Colonel’s chicken spot isn’t news to the UK, but it’s just about perfect for students looking for deep fried chicken coated in a magical mix of 11 herbs and spices when it’s time to eat.

    Cafés


    Café Enzo


    396 Kirkstall Rd, Leeds LS4 2HQ

    0113 278 5400

    If it’s breakfast or lunch you’re after during your hard days of study, a pit-stop at Café Enzo is well worth the effort. Their Full English breakfast will become one of the many great memories you’ll make at university in Leeds.


    Takeaway


    When all else fails (or you drink more than you planned on a night out), there’s always takeaway. Here are the two highest-rated takeaways in the vicinity on Just-Eat.co.uk:

    Papa Gino’s


    La Besi Restaurant
