Had an absolutely lovely experience at Stage yesterday, I had a mocha and it was easily one of the best coffees I’ve had in Leeds! Also, the barista with a hat on talked me through the retail and advised me on grinders which was a massive help! Thank you for all your help! Will definitely be coming back again soon!

Best coffee in Leeds by a mile! Brilliant food and cake and wonderful service! Absolute bargain for batch brew as well! Been going everyday for a while now and it's the best place, good selection of retail beans and very knowledgeable staff.

Good environment and coffee not bad. Pastry quite good and special. To me, my almond croissant with almond cream inside is good. Downstairs quite good for small chatting but not accessible for wheelchair. Worth a visit with colleagues or friends.

Another excellent coffee spot ! First time I've visited, but certainly won't be the last. It's a five minute work from the main shopping areas,but absolutely worth it. Was served by an experienced and enthusiastic barista and it showed in the coffee. Highly recommended for those who are fussy like me. Great range of filter and pour over coffees. Certainly worth visiting. Atmosphere was excellent and a cosy spot to chill. Thankyou ! Oh and the hot chocolate and Almond croissant was excellent too! An independent business which needs supporting.

Barista in the dickies hat (Han I think?) was amazingly welcoming and friendly, and made the best mocha I’ve ever had! Great service, will definitely be going again soon :)

One of the best places in Leeds for espresso. High quality selection of pastries and great service. This is a great spot for some quick out-of-office work, as they have fast internet and access to easy computer charging. Highly recommend!

been wanting to try Stage Espresso & Brewbar for quite some while... it’s located at a quite corner at the Great George Street, so it’s a 10-15min walk from the Leeds City Station / Leeds City Centre, but it definitely worths all the hassle i’ve gone with a cup of flat white and eggs benedict the poached egg is cooked perfectly, with slices of Yorkshire back ham on a toasted English muffin the hollandaise sauce is also perfection, making it a real delish and fulfilling dish the cup of flat white is also on point! the perfect balance of espresso and milk makes it one of the best flat white i’ve had in quite some while if you are crave for something sweet, make sure to grab a cup of dark hot chocolate! no words could justify how good it wasss
