Restaurants in Leek

Duck Goose

Had birthday lunch on Valentine's Day, couldn't have been better. Great ambience, fantastic service, super food from the light bites menu and very reasonably priced. Looking forward to returning to try the evening experience.

The Lazy Trout

Visiting the area and was recommended to visit. It's rare in my experience to find a pub that serves genuinely fresh, hot and very tasty, home cooked food which is worth the money so well done to the team here!

Ye Olde Rock Inn

Lovely food and well priced, dog friendly, cosy, wonderful staff & bonus overnight stays allowed in the car park in campervans/mororhomes! Will be returning.

The Reform Inn

Incredible food!!! Service was amazing aswell. Thoroughly impressed with everything. Chips were one of the best I’ve had, lasagna too. Left very very happy, thankyou

Spice Merchant Restaurant

Lovely visit! Last minute decision to grab a bite to eat. Looked fairly busy when we arrived, but the service was smooth - the waiters were attentive and friendly and the food was delicious and beautifully presented.

Spout Brew House

Great veggie food, simple and tasty, why cant other places serve this type of food instead of the usual spicy bean burger or bland veggie lasagne?
We love it.

Lion House Tearoom

First time here for lunch yesterday and can honestly say it was absolutely lovely! The soup was seriously good and the freshly prepared sandwiches were full of quality ingredients. Can’t wait to go back for an afternoon tea!

Pabna Restaurant

This is how much I love Pabnas food, I drive 12 miles to collect my order and then 12 miles home again and honestly it’s absolutely sensational!! Mrs had a veg sagwalla and I had a veg vindaloo with extra taters. Utterly delicious in every way ?. Even after the drive and getting halfway through our food the samosa’s were still perfectly crispy and warm. Rice and naans cooked to perfection and fresh as you like salad boxes . Cannot recommend these guys enough! Food is perfect the staff are lovely and service is second to none. 10/10 Pabna. ??

Caprinos Pizza Leek

OMG... WOW.. This has been the best pizza delivery we have experienced.. the timing was spot on, the pricing is bang on, the delivery guy was very friendly.... and to top it all the food has been amazing, we have always used a local family owned establishment, who are pricing themselves above the locals pockets.. let me tell you guys, CAPRINOS is now our go to pizza delivery place... Highly recommend... thankyou

Naz Restaurant & Takeaway

A lovely Indian restaurant
Good food very tasty and filling.
Friendly staff.
A fantastic experience.
A must for any Indian food lovers

Alberto's Kitchen

The best Pizza in Leek.

They often have deals on for their Pizza which easily beats the local competition.

The sides are also fantastic: the sweet potato fries, halloumi and chicken strips are all super crispy and taste great.

The pasta is decent although it’s a little on the pricey side so I would definetly recommend going for the lovely pizzas.

Tittesworth Water - Waterview Restaurant

This is around a 7km walk, very beautiful and relaxing but challenging. There is a very steep hill before the reservoir wall ( there is a seat at the top) and after that a lot of steep steps up and down. It isnt suitable for pushchairs or mobility scooters. The first couple of miles clockwise are ok for everyone and at that point there are ample benches. There is a shop and restaurant on arrival and toilets, but no more until you get back to base. Take water and refreshments. Plenty of parking. If you are going right round and stopping you need more than 2 hours parking which costs £3.75.

Shiraz Pizza

Pre-ordered pizzas, chicken and chips for 70 people for my 30th birthday party. Food and service was amazing and would definitely consider doing this again. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Cafe Delight Leek

A truly wonderful place with friendly staff and excellent service. The breakfast is absolutely delicious. I discovered this place by chance, and now I always stop by whenever I get the chance for a relaxing coffee. The team is both professional and warm, making u feel comfortable from the moment u walk in. Turan, the owner, is fantastic. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a cozy atmosphere.

The Diner

Been here for the first time this morning and the breakfast was superb the staff were very polite and friendly and not long on the wait for the food at all, definitely be back here ☕️???

Leek Bar & Grill

Spent a wonderful few hours here. First visit. Quiet when we first arrived in but it was only 530. Soon filled up and not surprised why. It’s a stunning venue. Staff were extremely professional and attentive. Food fantastic and all fresh. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back! Five stars!

Turkish Delight

I recently visited Turkish Delight and was really impressed. The food was delicious, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very professional, which made the whole experience even better. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal and excellent service.

Leek Junction

Just arrivwd at our caravan and looking for a nice place to eat, its never easy choosing as a lottery but found the Balti on Just Eat. The food arrived early and was extremely tasty. We had the inlaws with us and two fussy kids, all enjoyed the meal. We even rand and thanked the takeaway. Very good service, food and price, lovely!!!

Poppadom Express Leek

Rice N Spice

First time we had Indian food from here and first impression very good cooked to a really good standard, chicken tender not over cooked and prawns were perfect, rice was nice and fluffy as it should be and spices just right. The pashwari naan was fresh and tasty and we actually got hot food unlike some other places. On delivery we were told that we had some free onion bahji by the very pleasant driver

Laurel Inn Chinese Restaurant & Takeaway

Ordered a takeaway today from here. House rice and 3 x chicken balls… was spot on. Good value, very hot and actually one of the best takeaways I’ve had for a long time. Superb.

Pizza Line

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pizza Line in Leek is definitely one of my go-to places for a takeaway. The pizzas are always lovely, cooked just right and full of flavour, and the chips are really nice too.

The people serving are always lovely to speak to, friendly and welcoming whenever you go in. The delivery service has also always been reliable for me, with the food arriving on time and still nice and hot.

The delivery drivers are always very friendly and polite as well, which makes the service even better.

Overall, lovely pizzas and chips, great service, friendly people and reliable delivery. I’ve always had a good experience with Pizza Line and would definitely recommend giving them a try! ??⭐

Flaming Leek

Food is usually excellent and I don't like to complain, but tonight the scampi was well overcooked and I had to phone and complain. Unfortunately the replacement was just as bad. Perhaps they were just having a bad day.
Everything else was lovely!!!

Mulberry Leaves

Haven't been for a number of years due to the food and service been awful. This visit was a pleasant surprise. The service was good but unfortunately there was no cask ales on. The menu was good with lots of choice. The food was nice. We shall be visiting again soon.

Mill St Kitchen

We organised a buffet with Mill Street for mum’s birthday celebration and I can honestly say it was fabulous! Good old fashioned finger buffet, all super fresh and tasty and exactly what we all love for a family get together. The service from point of booking to collection was spot on and we will definitely do it again. Thank you to all the team ❤️

The Black Lion Cheddleton

Popped in for lunch mid week
Everything as you would hope for.
Food was good and value for money, drinks were good. Sat outside in the sunshine was lovely.
Definitely recommend.

The Valiant - Leek

The food was reasonable, good overall for a pub, no complaints. Service was good, price average to slightly higher roughly matches the quality. Burger was decent pizza okay.

The Winking Man

Booked a table for 7 people for lunch and needed to pay a deposit to secure the table, I think you only have to pay for geoupsnof 7 or more ( I could be wrong).
The staff were great and welcoming no issues with ordering and all the food was lovely and good sized portions.

Earl Grey Leek Ltd

Not sure if this pub is still open but went in last year and the decor is amazing. Very old school. The beers are local as are the people inside. Very welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Monty's

Fantastic experience!

By far the freshest battered fish I’ve been fortunate enough to eat in a very long time, absolutely wonderful batter, the chips exactly sized and cooked to perfection, the curry sauce was spot on too, I’m quite picky and this was just right.

They’ve also started doing puddings, a must for sure, very yummy!

A very warm welcome from the team and very well looked after from arriving to saying goodbye, nothing too much trouble.

Everywhere immaculately clean too, which is always a must.

I’ll certainly be returning as the menu has so much to offer and so many options I’d like to try.

Many thanks Montys!

The Flintlock at Cheddleton

Fabulous lunch with friends. Best food we’ve had in a while. Staff are all lovely, very attentive. Hake to start was just gorgeous. Brilliant. Loved it. Hope to go back

A Js Catering

If a cafe serving good food and lovely cakes etcThis is a good place to visit. Don't be put off by the petrol station the cafe is in the garden centre to the rear.

No 5 Cafe

This is definitely my favourite cafe in Leek! The coffee is top notch, the food is delicious (obviously the bread is perfect), and the cakes/slices are tasty. You can really tell that they care about the quality.

I love that they have great veggie/vegan options too, and it's all very fairly priced.

To top it off, the staff are very friendly and the service is quick.

Honestly can't fault anything. So happy we have this little place on our doorstep.

Vegetarian options: The vegan no chicken, bacon and mayo sandwich is delicious.

The Blue Mugge

Had a lovely lunch at the blue mugge today food was really good fresh and home made. and the staff were attentive and very polite a lovely welcoming atmosphere. Brilliant will come again soon.

Primo Piano Ristorante & Pizzeria

An absolutely superb Italian restaurant in the heart of Leek town centre. We had a portobello mushroom starter (specials menu) stuffed with camembert, red onion chutney, rocket & parmesan shavings on a truffle mayo and then our mains were 12hr braised lambs leg (specials) and fillet steak tournedos rossini which were cooked perfectly i every sense. What a chef!
The service and atmosphere was fabulous too. We will return!

Live Love Loaf

One of the best breads (the best in the UK to this day) I have ever had, this is sourdough done right.
Never change and you have my custom as long as I live around.

Also trying new sweet baked goodies so you never know what you end up with ?

The Roebuck

I love coming here specifically for the gammon steak it’s so juicy and perfectly done, worth the price you get so much, the staff are always so friendly and welcoming, will be returning again

Thai Siam Leek

Such a brilliant restaurant in Leek! I’ve been coming here occasionally for years now and I have never been disappointed. We normally go in for the lunch where there is a deal that includes a starter and a main! The staff are extremely friendly and nice - giving my younger brother free prawn crackers and some chocolate at the end. Would highly recommend!

The Cock Inn

We came back!

We had such a great time last time we came to this pub we organised a 2 night trip to come back!

The atmosphere was just as we remembered we felt at home.

Rob behind the bar is a legend.

Bar selection fabulous again.

We are scared of how much we could spend here…

Cattle Market

Great pub with really friendly staff and always made to feel welcome. Great range of drinks on tap with live sports and entertainment regularly at weekends.

Always made to feel welcome.

China Town

If you’re after a proper Chinese takeaway in Leek, China Town Takeaway is one that absolutely delivers on both quality and value.
We recently ordered the set banquet for three, and honestly, it was more than enough, it comfortably fed four adults and a child, with leftovers to spare. That’s always a great sign, especially when you’re expecting standard portion sizes and end up with a feast instead.
We collected the food on time and even after our 10 minute drive it was still piping hot, which immediately sets the tone, and every dish was packed with flavour. The ribs were a real standout, tender, meaty, that had everyone reaching back in for more. The prawn toast was perfectly crisp on the outside with a generous, well-seasoned topping, and the spring rolls were just how they should be, golden, crunchy, and not at all greasy.
What really impressed us was the consistency across everything. It wasn’t just one or two good dishes, the whole banquet felt well thought out and properly executed. You could tell care had gone into both preparation and portioning.
For value alone, it’s hard to beat, but when you combine that with hot, tasty food and generous servings, it becomes an easy go to. Whether you’re feeding a family or just fancy over ordering (we’ve all done it), China Town Takeaway is well worth a visit.

Haregate Fish Bar

Great food, great service and great price. After setting up the caravan at a local site, I called in just after seven o'clock for three large chips, three large plain sausages, large peas and large curry sauce to feed me and the family. We all agreed the food was excellent. Will definitely be calling in again on our next visit to Leek. Highly recommended.

The Hare & Gate

Visited the Hare & Gate to attend a family party. I don't live local so it was my first time visiting.The staff were very friendly and helpful with anything I needed. They even began to remember my orders of drinks straight away!There is WiFi available at the bar and plenty of space to sit down and enjoy your time there. The drinks were reasonably priced especially compared to other bars I have visited recently.Parking: There is a small car park available outside. It can be difficult to park at more busy times.

Dyers Arms

One of the few pubs in town that doesn't offer food ~ a proper boozer with an excellent Bass ~ roaring fire in the winter months ~ great place to meet before and after a football

The Avenue Fish Bar

Stopped off at this chippy on the way back to depot. The staff are really friendly, the portion sizes are really good, its a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. I got the haddock and chips, the fish was really fresh and flaked as you broke through the batter. You got a decent portion of chips with it as well
I'll definitely be dropping off here again, when im working in the area.

The Red Lion

I just wanted to take a moment to give a truly heartfelt shoutout to one of the most wonderful bar ladies I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting Scarlett From the moment you walk in, she creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home.
Her kindness is genuine, her smile is constant, and she somehow manages to remember the little things that make each customer feel special. Whether it’s a perfectly poured drink, a friendly chat after a long day, or just her positive energy behind the bar, she goes above and beyond every single time.
It’s rare to come across someone who clearly takes so much pride in what they do while also caring so deeply about the people around them. She’s not just serving drinks—she’s creating an experience, building connections, and making nights out genuinely memorable.
An absolute gem of a person and a huge credit to the place. If you’ve ever been served by her, you’ll know exactly what I mean. ?

Cafe Apollonia

We had a great late lunch at this family run business. Service by the friendly young woman was fantastic, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, coffee and cake, especially the generous portions and nice crisp side salads. Food was to a very high standard overall, including the best omlette my stepdad has ever had, he said. Nice to find a good place serving until 4pm, as most places seem to close at 2!

The Black Swan

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Black Swan is easily one of my favourite pubs in Leek. The beers are cheap, the atmosphere is always welcoming, and you can always have a good laugh with the locals. It’s the kind of pub where you can walk in, relax and have a proper good night.

There are plenty of TVs around the pub for watching the football, so it’s a great place to grab a pint and catch the game with a good atmosphere.

There always seems to be something going on, with different deals and events throughout the week, and DJs on at the weekends which really gets the place going. The atmosphere is always lively and there’s usually a good crowd in.

The staff are friendly, the drinks are reasonably priced and it’s just an all-round good pub with a proper local feel to it.

Definitely one of my go-to pubs in Leek — cheap beers, good people, football, good music and always a good vibe! ?⚽?

The Corner Cupboard

My husband has just brought me my first bap (tuna and sweetcorn) from the corner cupboard. It was a great size bap, very filling and fresh ingredients. I would highly recommend anyone to go here looking for a great snack or something to eat.

Platform 2 Cafe

Excellent sausage barm and carrot cake. Great tea and coffee. All at reasonable prices. Clean cafe. Lots of outside and undercover seating on Platform 2 with views of the trains. Pleasant, polite and helpful staff. Car park and a fairly short walk from the lake. Don't miss out on riding on the narrow gauge trains. Recommended!

The Priory

Such a shame it can't be open! It's a friendly well run spotlessly clean and totally covid safe environment. A big open fire and great service. Let's hope its back in business soon.

The Green Dragon - JD Wetherspoons

Been here many times for both food and drinks and never had a problem at all. Staff are brilliant and plenty of seating areas to choose from even when busy. What more do you need.

Coffee Beans Cafe

Our favourite café, stop for lunch if ever we're in Leek. Lovely food, great coffee and a great range of cakes. Staff are polite and friendly, would highly recommend.
