Residence 74 Now Open in Headingley

Popular Leeds-based Cafe and cocktail bar, Residence 74 has expanded with a third venue in the heart of Headingley.

Residence 74 is already a favourite in LS16, with a reputation for a tasty breakfast and brunch, creative cocktails and decor with New York vibes. The press and TripAdvisor reviews have been glowing.

Their latest project, in LS6, is considerably larger, set over two floors and with a repurposed winning brand formula for the City’s thriving student area. There’s a brand new small and large plate menu that accompanies the breakfast, brunch and indulgent dessert offering; not forgetting the cocktails!

Interior design sees exposed brick, moody lighting, neon signage and lush plants. Floor-to-ceiling windows create a bright and airy space with plenty of natural light, and there’s space for 45 covers in the restaurant and 16 in the bar.

The first floor has been designed to cater to private parties and on weekends, it will play host to the brand-new Bottomless Brunch, which is destined to be a must for Headingley regulars. 

New breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner hotspot for Headingley!

If you’re a newcomer to the Residence 74 brand, think lively environment with simple, quality food. Full English comes with options – veggie, vegan and gluten free – with other dishes like spruced up Avo on Toast with roasted veggies, pesto and feta! Or their signature dish, the must try Eggs Residence, an Eggs Benny twist with the usual hollandaise and English muffin but with crispy bacon and hash browns. 

For the sweet of tooth, what about pancakes stacked high with Nutella, banana and biscoff crumb? Or the French Brioche Toast with bacon and maple syrup.

For lunchtime diners, burgers and sandwiches are on the menu, and when day turns to night, guests can enjoy a range of creative small plates, from pulled pork croquettes, andprawn saganaki to Korean fried cauliflower, along with larger plates including open Greek kebabs, a Chicken Parmi and a Sweet potato curry. The new menu brings a variety of cuisines catering for everyone.

Owner Salar Eftekhary: ‘’We’ve been overwhelmed with the amount of support from so many loyal customers since opening Residence 74 back in 2018 and can’t wait to begin the next chapter of our story. Our Headingley venue will feel familiar to regulars, but with enough twists to make it fresh at the same time.

‘We wanted to create a space that could effortlessly transition from daytime breakfast and brunch to a lively cocktail and evening light bites venue. I’m confident we’ve achieved this – it’s a beautiful venue and our new menus are our tastiest to date. Team Residence 74 is prepped for what we hope will be our busiest and best year to date.’’
