  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
We’re delighted to introduce Bavette. A neighbourhood bistro filled with warm engaging hospitality, with a menu of seasonally led classically driven dishes.

We hope to get that balance of generosity and quality right - that juxtaposition of every day special.

Bavette is a love letter to our favourite places we’ve been to and been lucky enough to be a part of.

Sandy Jarvis and Clément Cousin.

    Delicious food, great atmosphere, friendly welcoming staff. Food was worth the money. I would definitely come here again. Great for a romantic dinner, meal with friends or a celebration. A fabulous addition to the Leeds dining scene.

    Heard great things and it did not disappoint - we are both vegan, and they whipped up a special menu for us for the evening. Service was perfect, wine was great and food was executed perfectly - so much flavour. We will be coming back.

    Thank you so much, Eliot. This is lovely to read; I'm glad you both enjoyed it. I will pass on your compliment to the rest of the team. Looking forward to having you back. Best. Clément.
