The Swine That Dines Restaurant in Headingley, Leeds

   My first visit since the Swine that Dines moved from the city centre to Headingley and became the Swine Bistro. Absolutely lovely. The food is spot on, the service is perfect and the whole environment is beautifully done. Charming, welcoming, classy but not pretentious. Great wine list too. I went for quite hearty meat dishes, but there were plenty of lighter fish and veggie choices too. Looking forward to my next visit.

   We had an absolutely brilliant lunch here the other day as part of a birthday celebration. The pork from the evening menu was a highlight, but the sausage main, sausage starter and hash brown starter were all beautifully prepared too, as well as the sides. Real food that has been properly taken care of. The menu was also marked up to highlight dietary needs I let them know in advance that I was gluten free.

   Went on a Saturday lunch in a group of 4 so were lucky enough to try most of the menu. Every single thing we had was so tasty! Even the potatoes! One of the best restaurants I've been to in a while. We even got all 5 desserts as we couldn't choose :) only feedback I would give is the homemade crumpet had a little too much cheese on and needed something sharp to balance it. Still an 11/10 will be back! Thank you for a lovely birthday meal!

   We visited them on their opening night and went there again recently, love the Swine so much! A lot of thought have been put into every dish, every ingredient was simply perfect and there were a few things that felt very creative and really stood out to us. I would say Swine is a restaurant that has its “spark” at the moment and I would love to visit again soon.

   Went for the lunch menu and it was a treat. Lovely flavours and good portions. Staff were friendly and they had a great drinks list of both alcoholic and non alcoholic beers and wines. Would definitely go back.

   I'm here as I write this. I'm just so blown away I just had to write about it while the flavours are still pouring around my mouth and Van Morrison is singing in my ear. The Swine That Dines has just sky rocketed into the number one slot for restaurants in Leeds as far as I'm concerned. Jo and Stu are quite simply in a league of their own. They do what they want, as it pleases, and oh my gosh it pleases. I'm into some of the fancy upmarket restaurants further towards the center... But the cold hard truth is, the pale in comparison to the homely vyb, good times and exceptional food found in this humble 5 table eatery on the border of the city centre It's personal, it's beautiful, and it's oh so tastey. Chat to Jo about the food, she'll tell you all about it. Perfect front of house service. I had the ox tongue (the menu changed regularly) and it was without doubt the best dish I've had in Leeds. The wine list is amazing too! Just get yourself booked in.

   Amazing food. Always amazing. The atmosphere is lovely and great for any occasion the food is fine dining without feeling inaccessible. You can dress up or go pretty casual and not look out of place.

   Amazing little restaurant. Food was so well thought through, incredible flavours, well presented. Great choice even on a smaller menu. Service was fantastic. Lovely team who clearly enjoy being there and care about their customers. A small number of covers gives a lovely atmosphere. Wonderful experience with great wine and desserts. If you're in Leeds, highly recommend booking a table here, you won't be disappointed.

   Another fantastic meal at The Swine That Dines. Having flexed throughout various lockdowns they are still producing amazing food - including a smoked haddock dish that was delicious, and a repeat order of their signature custard tart. Very good wine list too.
