A place like this is plain wasted on me. I don't know what to do with half of the stuff in here,…read morelet alone most of it, I do know what to do wit the coffee and cakes part of Cranberries Hampers, but the rest, nah. Two of my friends, a couple, are absolute consumate foodies, and the wide eyes of these two in here was like the kid in Miracle on 34th Street realising there IS A SANTA CLAUS! So what is Cranberries Hampers, essentially it is a delicatessen, with a coffee bar included in the deli area. In addition to this there are buffet and catering services which are good to know if you've got an event coming up and fresh meats, dips, snack bits, salads and whatnot are your type of food. The deli counter itself is full of delicious cuts of meat, and in accordance to what the foodies said, were excellent quality, premium in fact. They went around the place, happily buzzing between the marmalades and jams, wines, marinades, sauces, olives, oils, all of the important stuff you require from a deli. Whence the foodies bought what they needed to stock up on, I decided I was a bit starved and when in Rome, let's eat. In a bit of a rush after their prolonged cruising of the goods, we got our food to go. My healthy sized New Yorker sarnie at £3.30 was a delish combo of chicken, pastrami, and Emmental, minus the gherkin cos they are sooo nasty. Foodies ordered beef, sweet chili and mozzarella, and t'other one, the fussy get, created his own for £4 with change. All in all a nice little place serving the needs of those who require more choice and quality than a supermarket, and appreciate the quality difference.

Oh I do love a good delicatessen. I do struggle to find them these days, which is why Cranberries…read moreis worth the trip out of the city to stop up at from time to time. We're talking exotic as they come too. You want a smoked meat with a bit of a difference? Well try some wild boar. It's a little bit too survival living for me but I reliably involved that it is a delicious savoury treat. if you're more of a sausage person (oh matron) then go for the salami. it's some serious bread action for me though and foccacia sent from bread heaven. delicious. If I'm feeling really naughty I'll end with a rustic muffin or passion cake. Well it's part of my five a day so it can't hurt can it. it's a nicely done out shop too, well stocked and easy to use. We need to keep these fine eating places alive and kicking. We need more of them. We need Cranberries Hampers in our lives.

The quality was simply superb. This place is worth going out of one's way to visit. If you're looking for a fantastic lunch, it's where it's at. One note, the place tends to be busy, so it can be a bit of a wait for the food or for the staff, but the food is worth the wait.

My poached egg broke with a syrupy affect down my toasted sourdough as the steam slowly whirled off like smoke from a chimney on a cold crisp morning. I also ordered a sticky toffee custard danish which resembled the quality and flavor of a pastry from Tartines back in SF. The ambiance and mood was just right of a cafe, enough bustle to feel the verve and passion of the staff but not intrusive to the soul entering the day. I will be back and encourage others to give this place a try!

In Headingley, where lovely independent cafes and coffee shops are far from rare, Bare Coffee still…read moremanages to stand out as being somewhere special. The cafe is tiny. There are a few tables and chairs inside but I think the capacity for customers must be about 10. Outside at the front there are a couple more tables and there are a few more in the back garden. Fortunately we were able to find space at a table in the back. The atmosphere indoors is chaotic but fun, three members of staff shout orders and jokes to each other behind the tiny coffee bar, each of them laughing and jostling for space. You get the impression that your order won't be delivered very quickly but that it will be worth the wait, and the chaos is exciting rather than stressful, the laughter is infectious. This contrasts to the garden areas which are far more relaxed. Personally, given the right weather, I could happily spend all day here. It's perhaps more of a courtyard than a garden, but it's lined with plants, including strawberry plants. The strawberries were just starting to ripen during my visit and I couldn't help worndering if they use them in their recipes. I ordered the Spanish picadillo hash. It came with fried potatoes, cherry tomatoes, chorizo, black pudding and a fried egg. My sister's enormous veggie breakfast came with sourdough toast (all the bread comes from the Leeds Bread Co-op and loaves are available to buy from the cafe), mushrooms, eggs, cherry tomatoes and leak and cheese veggie sausages. We also both ordered delicious Soy lattes, the coffee is North Star. Everything was exactly as delicious as it sounds. If you're in the Headingley area and looking for brunch I really doubt you could find anything better.
