Budget

Food:

Leeds is home to some of the best restaurants in Northern England. If you want to indulge, try Michelin-starred Crafthouse or the Ox Club, which specialises in wood-fired grilled meats. There are great Indian restaurants such as Akbars and Tharavadu, real fish and chip businesses such as the Fisherman's Wife, and high-quality fast-food locations such as Roundhay's Flying Pizza. Expect to pay £5-8 for fish and chips, £10-15 for a nice pub lunch, and £20 or more for a meal at one of the city's top restaurants.

Transport:

The bus is the principal mode of public transit in Leeds, and the city boasts an outstanding network. Day tickets for Metro services cost £5.40 and include unlimited travel, whilst the CityBus service covers the majority of the city centre for just £0.50 each ride.

Taxis aren't actually essential for most daytime travels in the centre of town, but they can come in useful if you're staying in suburbs like Roundhay, or if you need to go back from theatres or clubs. Expect to pay roughly £3 for the metre drop and £2.50 every mile after that.

In Leeds, renting a car is a great choice. Numerous parking places are available in the city's core for £15 per day, and major rental firms including Avis, Hertz, and Thrifty have locations there. The cost of renting should be affordable; some packages start at just £17 per day.

Shopping:

Leeds is a great city for retail therapy. One benefit is that there are stunning shopping centres like Thorntons and Kirkgate Market to explore, which offer an incredible atmosphere for finding deals. Then there are the actual stores. Thorntons has specialty shops like Skate Store, franchises like Ann Summers, and shoe stores like Dune. The magnificent Victoria Quarter is another option, home to exclusive shops including Harvey Nichols and Louis Vuitton.

In the heart of Leeds, there are numerous supermarkets, including well-known brands like Sainsbury's, Morrisons, and Waitrose (and Marks and Spencer, which was founded in the city). So, grocery shopping shouldn't be a hassle. Prices are often not very expensive. An estimated price of £3.30 for a gallon of milk and £2 for 12 eggs is required.
