A new business is set to replace a recently-closed Leeds cafe and bakery.

Cafe 164 announced the closure of its Munro House branch last month, after more than a decade in the city centre.

The owners said they were “extremely proud of what they had achieved”, but knew it was time to move on.

Originally a small coffee shop housed in an art gallery, the space evolved over the years to include a bakery, sandwich shop and smaller gallery.

The branch in Headingley will now become the main base for the business, open seven days a week.
