What an incredible store! Beautiful goods for sale, but with price tags beyond my bank account! Interestingly, all staff we met were in plain clothes, they almost blended in to shoppers, security reasons? Had to visit as we were in Leeds for a few days! read more

Harvey Nichols in Leeds' Victoria Quarter on Briggate is probably one of the nicer and more high-end department stores in the city centre. It is a stone's throw away from Trinity Leeds. The focus here is mainly on your cosmetics and beauty brands, as well as stocking fashion items and accessories, such as handbags, rather than having a wider selection of other categories, such as technology which you would find at John Lewis nearby. The store does have a good and luxurious feel to it, with the Food Hall on the upper floor, having a nice selection of novelty gifts, obviously, the price is high but that is common with gift-sets anyway. Harvey Nichols Fourth Floor Brasserie and Bar, is also present next to the Food Hall, offering a selection of food and drinks in a relatively comfortable environment. The building does look pretty ordinary compared to other branches, such as those in Manchester, Edinburgh and London, but this is still a fairly good store and the staff are friendly enough, it is well worth a look in while shopping in Leeds city centre. 4* read more

Beautiful store. Nice cafe. I enjoyed the view. One of the nicest places in Leeds. Nice clothes

Ok, if I'm honest with myself, I'll probably never earn enough to be a regular shopper at Harvey Nichols. As beautiful and polished and shiny as everything is, the prices here are too high for me and too hard to justify. At least for most of the stuff. Maybe I'll be able to stretch to the occasionally item from the cosmetics section, but that's almost it. The exception is the fourth floor, which houses a restaurant and the food section. Here you'll find cookery books, alochol and foodie delights. Harvey Nichols has their own range of things like teas, biscuits, jams and pastas and also stocks things from other companies. Many of them items on sale are difficult to find elsewhere. It's still pricey, but I don't think it's quite as far outside the usual budget as the rest of Harvey Nichols is. If you have a foodie friend or two (and you're on Yelp so... let's just assume you do) this would be a good place to find a gift for them. Or maybe the occasional treat for yourself. read more

Everyone knows Harvey Nics, right? Well, that's good - because it's only one of the biggest and most popular department stores in the UK, isn't it? Why then, should I review it? Well, it's just, I never feel like I'm fully given the full Harvey Nichols experience. That's why it doesn't get five stars, you see. Respect where it's due, Harvey Nics IS amazing. There's all of the top brands, some amazing products, it's like Willy Wonka's factory of fashion would be - if he didn't have such a sweet tooth. But, as a young scruffy male, I'm not sure I get the full treatment. The doorman doesn't seem to want to open the door to me, unless I'm with my girlfriend of course... and the staff show little interest in me. Alright, so - most of the time I can't afford anything more than a pair of socks (even they're twenty quid!) but sometimes I am looking for something in particular. Don't judge a book by it's hairy-faced cover, and all that, will you Harvey? read more

Situated under the inordinately beautiful stained glass roof of the Victoria Quarter, the Harvey Nichols Espresso Bar has the ideal location to create an impressive experience for its customers. This little cafe is the usual destination for my Mam and I when she journeys to Leeds to go shopping, disguised with the vague notion of visiting me! I jest. Breakfasting here feels luxurious, as though we are on holiday - the Harvey Nichols brand rarely disappoints. As a coffee lover, my Mam partakes in a caffeine fix whilst I usually sample the refreshing benefits of some Darjeeling tea. A delicious choice of fresh croissants, pastries and English muffins is available, accompanied by scrumptious preserves. Revitalised and with the cockles of our hearts thoroughly warmed, a morning pit stop at the Harvey Nichols Espresso Bar has often proved to be the catalyst to a successful and energised day's shopping. read more

Most people will have heard or even visited a harvey Nichols store. If not, I suggest you do, like...now! Where else are you going to go where the doorman tips his hat you you, opens the door and says 'Morning Miss!'...or where you can find such an abundance of haute couture under one roof? As soon as you walk in, you get hit by the sheer sparkle of the jewellery cabinets and the bags and other accessories and over a few floors you'll find many many design house sections. Even though I love the idea of Harvey Nichols, a lot of the clothes do not appear to me. I think a lot of people who are interested in fashion feel that they have to bow down to a name like Harvey Nichols and worship everything in store. Not so...granted, there are lots of lovely designs and accessories but they have lovely price tags to go with them. read more

This place is huge! I only went up and looked at the top most floor. I really enjoyed the doorman and the window decorations though. The next time I got back to England, I am going to take my time looking in this store. If only I had endless money for it. That would be perfect. read more

Leeds' premiere super expensive landmark shopping palace is hard to knock... So long as you have lots of cash and a slender figure which will fit into the Dolce, McQueen and Armani. For those not wanting to spend stupid cash though, they also sell Acne tees in various grey-like shades and Varvaros Converse Collaborations... and what's not to love about that! Oh, and they have a lovely eatery on the top floor too, complete with bar... Yay for shopping and champagne in the same building! read more

Harvey Nichols has such a grand label attached to it, it's no wonder we ended up going to both the Fourth Floor and this espresso bar. The building is lovely and provided a good balance between being outside (which was horribly humid at the time) and inside (which would be sad to do when it was so warm) with its glass ceiling and the coming and going of shoppers. Our waitress was a touch fierce but I think it's because we slipped in right at the end of service, so she probably wanted to go home. We ordered two teas and a brownie with cheescake topping, which was gorgeous, and it was great to try something a bit different. The brownie took a while to come and, although the server did explain to us and apologise for the delay, it's always a bit of a dampener on your day when something is delayed. Everything comes with a HN sized price tag, though you can get a good offer on cake and a tea/coffee, which of course we did. A nice little place to relax when you want something on a plate rather than a wooden slab. (Don't get me wrong, I love a good wooden slab, but I do remember thinking to myself that I seemed to eat more from wood than I did from a plate during my visit to Leeds!) read more

Just LOVE this shop, might as well just get my salary paid direct to the Shoe dept!!!! Knowledgeable staff, great lunchtime dining spot, especially when it's accompanied by a large Verdecchio!!! read more

I enjoy all sorts of food and when Harvey Nics first opened, there were an array of lovely luxurious food, all for a price, obviously but for the odd treat, why not! Now, I've not been there for a long time as yes it's expensive but as I remembered the clientele were too rude and having to make my way to the top floor for some treats when there were so many of shops was too much to bear and today was no exception! I was walking behind two guys chatting, walking into the shop, when the last one said, "you're welcome!" They way someone says it when I should've said thank you to him. Now, IF he had held the door open for me, I'm a polite person and would have, but seen as he was only opening the door for his big 6ft frame and his mate, I didn't. Anyho getting up to the top floor wasn't too bad as there were few clientele around. I walked around the food hall and was so disappointed! There were a few shelves around of teas, coffees and bits. I guess that's solved the problem of ever having to go in there again as there wasn't much to buy. I didn't get any customer assistance as they were busy chatting to each other. On the way down and out, I had a girl in fake town, full make up, hair straightened to an each of its life, handbag on arm, leggings (chubby) and ugg boots look me up and down in a disapproving way then another woman, barber jacket and few bags of shopping, barge past me to get to the escalator without even a thanks. Decision made, don't go back to Harvey Nics Leeds again read more

I LOVE SHOPPING AT HARVEY NICHOLS!! Granted it is mainly window shopping due to the price on that Stella McCartney dress or Jimmy Choo's. Sometimes when I feel sad I go in just to stroke the Chloe bags...sad...yes!!! I'm aloud to as my boyfriend does treat me to the bags that pull me in most often when I stroke and sulk enough! (well that's how I justify bag and shoe touching to myself!) It is a fashion haven for all you sex and the city and devil wears prada lovers! It has every designer and their products (be it fashion, cosmetics, food or homeware) all under one roof. Perfect. Harvey Nic's stocks everything from Monolo shoes to Saville Row suits to Figi Water to Lancome Lipgloss. Such designer names do pull on the purse strings though! So go in now and put something on next years Chirstmas list for your partner to save up for! You cannot miss Harvey Nic's! Right on the middle of the main shopping strip (Briggate) it's couture window displays always demand attention! With a new display for each season I often sit on the bench outside Harvey's with my coffee and dream what it must be like to be that manikin wearing that Viv Westwood dress! Yes you think I'm mad now......! If you are in Leeds it's worth a visit most definitely. Even more so if you have a rich husband or a high paying job! Enjoy the smiley door man in his 20's hat letting you in and out, it makes a change from people pushing you over outside Primark. read more

This shop is actually very nice and a lovely place to shop, especially at christmas when the displays are up, they get really festive and in the spirit. I love all that! Anyway, the ranges they have are fab - homewares, clothes for men women and children, cosmetics, and a wonderful selection of accessories and gifts. The staff are really really nice and the range of things they sell - well personally I could do all my shopping here at christmas including a nice dinner and a cup of tea for myself! It can be a bit expensive so why not visit on a 20% off day which they have a lot of even before christmas. Their cards and wrap are really good quality too. I do enjoy shopping in debenhams it is one of my very favourite shops in Leeds. I think that most people feel the same - it is just a lovely shop with loads to buy see and do, and it is right in the heart of Leeds city centre just a few minutes from the bus and train stations. read more

Plush, stylish department store - I'm sure you know what to expect. My favourites are the beauty counters downstairs, the food hall upstairs and the cafe which has amazing views over Leeds cityscape. No Leeds shopping trip would be complete without popping in here! read more

This department store just adds to the pleasure of shopping in West (Riding) Yorkshire. Hotels, restaurants and shopping with entertainment create a vibrant centre. Harvey Nichols remains "absolutely fabulous". Excellent reputation for expensive quality goods and retail good manners too. Proper coffee in the ground floor cafe. Easy short walk from main rail station. read more

agree with all other comments that the doorman (poor sod) is great. Even stands there in is long coat and top hat in winter. I once paid £5 for a bagle, it was lovely but i could have bouht numerous bags of bagles from the supermarket for the same price. If you cant afford to shop here go in and take advantage of all the samples. ask around and admire the tropical fish tank at the bottom of the escalator lol!!! If you can afford to shop here, there are numerours levels. a few for the women,men and children. Everything from Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana,roberto cavalli,gina,burberry. To the more affordable whistles, diesel, miss sixty. Great designer sunglasses and shoe dept. Nice make-up counters read more

Harvey Nichols is the place that Leeds likes to show off. It's like the posterboy for Leeds high street shopping ('look at us, we're posh enough to have a Harvey Nichols!'). I don't know anyone in Leeds who is rich enough to shop here to be honest. All I can think of is all the people who come here are from Harrogate and all the women who come here just fish for free samples!! This here is shopping for high flyers, pimps and rich kids. You could probably get half the stuff in here cheaper on the net! The stuff itself is pretty boring. Shopping for people with more money than sense. You'd probably look like you get cash, but the stuff is pretty boring, uninspring and expensive for what it is. You'd be better going in some 'indie' clothes retaillers with more interesting and unique wears. The old podgy door guy at the front in the top hat is great though. read more

What a stylish store! A little intimidating at first, this awesome posh department store is worth a visit when shopping in Leeds. All the desirable items inside are highly priced designer goods mostly but it's a great place to go for ideas before you start shopping in the usual high street outlets. The food hall on the top floor is great for little stocking filler gifts of quality food special food products, well worth a mooch around in there. While you're up on the top floor, the cafe's pretty nice too. read more

All visitors to Leeds should pay a visit to this store purely for the novelty effect if nothing else. There's a 'Fat Controller' from Thomas the Tank Engine like man on the door, top hat and all greeting visitors and opening the doors. The items in Harvey Nics are much to be desired at several hundred pound per handbag etc but girls can always wish! Plenty of staff available, all friendly and helpful with directions etc. Restaurant and food area on the top floor, very pricey indeed but nice to buy some homemade jam for the Harvey Nics bag! read more

A great aspect of Leeds city centre shopping, and a feast for the eyes. Some great cosmetic houses for a treat- Mac counter is booming and the staff are generally really helpful. Love the handbags area, there is lots of choice if you want to splurge! Great cafe in the Victoria quater for refreshment whilst out shopping yum! And I would highly recommend the 4th floor food hall and restaurant, both are really great. read more

For me it's all about the windows,I just love them all! Also ome gorgeous clothing and accessories and a great new change of direction for women's wear on the third floor. read more

Tricky one. The Victorian Quarter is beautiful, and it's a joy to sit 'outside' beneath the glass canopy warmed by the gas heaters and people watch. At the moment this area takes on an added attractiveness as it's dressed for Christmas and the twinkling lights and mirror-ball tree all add to the excellent atmosphere. So for location and ambiance it's second to none. But here comes the but.....We were served by a frosty, unsmiling waitress, our coffees were lukewarm and seemed to take an age to arrive, and my hot chocolate fudge cake was cold but for a couple of mildly warm bits in the middle. On the plus side, the coffee and cake were both tasty and of decent proportions. And of course, with it being HarveyNix, the prices were just that bit higher than most other places. So a bit of a mixed bag then. However the bottom line really is that regardless of the location, the basics should be correct, so therefore 2 stars only. read more

If you're looking for a place to live out a fashionista's dream, then Harvey Nichols department store is the place to be.

Harvey Nichols is an absolute MUST to visit whilst in Leeds! read more

The Victoria Quarter is a lovely setting for an Espresso Bar, with the waterfall, stained glass ceiling, plants and serene music floating around. Harvey Nichols lies right next the Victoria Quarter so you can enter it either from the front on Briggate or the side, near the Espresso Bar. If you have had a hard day shopping in Leeds and fancy something a little fancier than the boring old chain coffee shops then this is a nice place to relax. The coffee and is not that much more expensive than at Starbucks but the atmosphere is in a different league. Everything is fresh and of a high standard and won't necessarily break the bank. read more

I do like to pop in here purely to browse really sadly most things are way out of my price range and the clothes sizes seem to come in small and extra small so no good for me. Downstairs is full of the usual make up counters and glam assistancents and perfume. Clothing on the 2nd and 3rd floor then the forth floor has an amazing food hall filled with lots of goodies you wont find else where. I do sometimes treat myself to some yummy jelly belly beans they sell here. The toilets are great too. Also love the fab there's a door man too. read more

its worth a look in, not as flash as there manchester store, but the sales are always good! its nice to see how the other half live ;) but staff are always nice even when i go in looking less then well heeled! (one of my grunge days) but i love my beauty products, the pout counter is good, as they often bring in new lines so the old lines get reduced around 50% also the shu uemura counter that has recently openned! if you dont mind the £50.00 price tag for a cleansing oil that is. but they have fab false eye lashes all beauty counters as you would find in most major department stores, like clarins (my fav) chanel etc handbags need i say more? other then look but not at the price tags, as it can cause gasping out loud or partners to look very worried! and the shoes! you've heard the saying champange taste and cabbage means! thats me. the bar is nice place to have a coffee upstairs, better then most high street coffee shops and pricing works out about the same, but there is a 10% service charge. and if you don't want a coffee you can have a cocktail, glass of wine etc and great for people watching. not eaten at the restaurant myself, but my friend went and the friend she went with, asked for a doggy bag for her left over chips! something i still laugh about now at the thought of her dying of shame! but they did wrap it in foil, making a very ornate swan shaped package and did not bat an eyelid at the request. the little food market is always worth a look, to pick up some tasty treat to take home, or as posh little thank you gifts for the in-laws, gifts that come in a harvy nic's bag are always welcomed! the wines and spirit section is worth looking at, whiskey with price tags off £2000! but they do do tastings of the less expensive wines and sprits, which is very nice! not forgetting Yo Sushi, my sons fav place, as all the food goes around on a convayer belt. though i do mutter not the purple plates son, as each plate is colour coded for pricing, with some cook to order dishes, and at the end of your meal, they simply add up your dirty dishes. so can work out expensive if your hungry! and the ladies toilets! fab, sensor taps very clean, never out of toilet paper, full length mirrors, waste paper bins never over flowing. though can be a little dark! so if caught short shopping in leeds, these are the toilets to use! read more

Harvey Nichols is in the heart of leeds city centre where you can buy top designer brands i.e clothing ,perfume,cosmetics.All so nice restaurant and coffee shop.Shop till you drop this is the place to be seen. read more

Love, love, love going in here, mostly to browse & window shop. Staff are all excellent, love the designer clothes & handbags best :) There's an excellent cafe just outside in Victoria Place, but just go for a treat, as it's very expensive. read more

Lovely shop, great for browsing at the handbags at the entrance but my fav bit is the beauty section at the back of the ground floor.. Its fab ! read more

The HN 'outdoor' cafe is a favourite spot for a light lunch/glass of champagne, while watching the world go by. Love the soups and the velvety house red (£18/bot) on a winter's day and a cool glass of fizz (from £10/glass) early evening. Not cheap, but so preferable to dark, bustly, noisey Starbucks over the way. One of Leeds' best. London has the Fifth Floor etc but not a 'street cafe'!. read more

This shop is like a big red balloon. It's really nice to look at from the outside. But inside it's full of nothing. Over-priced, uninspiring menswear. The staff aren't friendly, knowledgable or attractive. The store is like Michael Owen, a shadow of his former self content to live off former glory. Okay, at best. read more

Harvey Nichols, dear Harvey Nichols, how piddled off you marketing and branding big wigs must be at the constant reference to your beloved snob shop as Harvey Nicks. Unfairly I suppose, it isn't the content of these shops that I take umbrage with, but the contrived attitudes of the staff that work there. On two separate occasions I have entered via the smartly dressed doorman, in a pair of jeans and a hoody (the dreaded hoody, heaven forbid) and the other a suit, shirt and overcoat. Can you all guess which occasion I was treated better and which worse? Doesn't take a genius. The day I walked in wearing jeans and a hoody, the doorman was still chivalrous, tipping his hat and offering platitudes however the feeling of judgment was in the air. Mooching around the handbag department and daring to lay hands, lest I be unable to pay for one of these coveted items I was tracked solidly for 10 minutes by a sales assistant, wearing only a hoody I doubt I was going to be able to stash a Marc Jacobs tote bag up it, but she ploughed on nonetheless. Restraining myself from barking "back off" at the sales bod I decided maybe a nice jacket perusal would elevate my mood. Holy Hell, no, no it did not. At first I wasn't sure if it was a clone or an entirely different person, but yet again I was stalked like a deer around all the lovely designer brands, again, as if my intent was to stuff a 3/4 length jacket up my jumper. After wending around the floors with what seemed like 100 pairs of eyes and temperature boiling I left. The next time I went in, I was in the suit combo mentioned earlier, and the reaction from door to mooch to leaving was entirely different. Doorman was still pleasant, in fact he had a little more gusto with his salutations and I was both pleased and peeved off at this all at the same time. My mooching and poking didn't result in deer stalkings, and when a sales assistant did approach me, I was preparing to bark at this point, she totally surprised me in asking if there was anything she could help me with, was there anything I would like to see, any style or designer I was particularly interested in. I dismissed an offer for help, smirking and seething over the difference in treatment a set of clothes make. Insert small rant about how my money or needs were any different depending on what clothes I had on. GRRR! This behaviour continued throughout my loop of the store and I was even offered a goodbye from the doorman. As a department store, Harvey Nichols is grand, it's beautiful, the window displays are all beautifully crafted, and it is the retail version of a divine box of chocolates, just begging you forward to indulge. Depending on what you look like, this box of chocolates is armed with barbed wire or welcoming arms. With regards to choice of brand and style, the numbers fail me, there are too many to list off the top of the head, but if you're up on your fashion, you'll know what to look for and who it is you are looking for and there's a good chance it's here. Men and women are covered in the clothing departments, handbags are extensive, make up is in a large supply to compliment all shades, tones, sensitivities etc, the café provides a nice place to sit and recuperate whilst you power up to tackle the rest of the floors. It's a haven for the decadent. I love and hate this place in equal measure. read more

agree a great store but aren't they all nothing to make this stand out apart from their overpriced café in Victoria Place sandwiches @ £8 a pop that 'subway' would have been embarrassed to serve the staff were aloof and seemed to have no interest in you at all all in all don't bother !!!! read more

The worst customer service I have ever had! Absolutely atrocious and resulted in a Christmas present being ruined. My partner purchased a pair of Louboutin heels as a Christmas gift for myself. He was served by a member of staff named Chris. Said he was unhelpful and abrupt. Received the shoes on Christmas Day, they were the wrong size. So we visited the store on the 29th December to be served by Chris again, when we put the shoes on the counter he said 'whats wrong with them?!'....abrupt. He told me they didn't have them in stock (fair enough its a busy period) and told me 'not to hold my breath' then went on further to tell me it was my problem that they did not fit. I work in retail myself selling luxury fine jewellery, and j would not dream of talking to a customer of mine in this fashion. I was appalled. Even though the shoes were bought less than a week before (paid in cash) we were told that we could not have a refund for the cash but we had to have a gift card because we had paid with cash!? We don't live near Leeds and made the trip especially...the gift card is of no use for us. I gave my details and was assured that when the heels came back into stock I would receive a phone call to collect them. It's the 9th Febuary and nothing. I am just absolutely stunned at the lack of commutation and the rudeness of staff. I will never shop in Harvey Nichols again!! I will purchase the shoes from Selfridges where the staff have manners and don't grunt at you. My understanding is that if I spoke to my customers in this way I would receive a disaplinary. Your staff either do NOT care or enjoy their jobs, or have no training in customer service. It's a great shame, and I feel very let down. read more

what would leeds city centre be without harvey nichols its a bit expensiv but still they ahve all the banded stuff and is the best place for make up and bags! also i love the old fashioned doorman at the door read more
