Flat Iron is Opening in Leeds

The Flat Iron team’s commitment to serve remarkable steak at an affordable price will appeal to Leeds diners as the restaurant opens its northern doors in November.


The two floor, 110 cover restaurant in the heart of Leeds will bring its menu to the North of England for the very first time. Set to open on the corner of Albion Place and Lands Lane in the former Church Institute, Flat Iron will be conveniently located beside the Leeds Trinity shopping centre.

Flat Iron is celebrated for quality offering and affordable pricing, making great steak accessible to everyone. The menu is led by the signature Flat Iron Steak; meticulously seam-butchered from the shoulder, the steak is tender, juicy and full of flavour. The menu also boasts an array of sides, including truffled macaroni cheese, crispy bone marrow garlic mash and homemade beef dripping chips.

The Flat Iron team has had roots in the North for over 10 years, with their own herd of cattle reared under the watchful eye of third-generation beef farmer, Charles Ashbridge. Nestled in the hills above Sutton Bank in Thirsk, the Flat Iron herd thrives on luscious pastures, homemade hay, rolled barley, molasses and nuts. The Flat Iron herd beef features on the menu in their iconic Bearnaise Cheeseburger.

Leeds diners can also take their pick from the drinks menu, consisting of a curated selection of wine, cocktails and local draught beers. The team has their very own Flat Iron Malbec on offer, expertly blended using grapes grown in the Limoux area of Languedoc in southern France.

When asked about the opening, Flat Iron’s Head of Beef, Fred Smith says “Yorkshire is the home of our Flat Iron herd, so it felt only natural to open a Flat Iron in Leeds with our very own beef just a few miles away. We’re really looking forward to bringing great steak to the North and welcoming new guests to the Flat Iron family.


Flat Iron will open in Leeds at the end of November.
