Having opened in late 2018, situated in Central Arcade in Leeds City Centre, Flamingos is Leeds's only dry, late night LGBT+ friendly Coffee House, open 7 days a week. Are you a local LGBT+ community group looking for a free meeting space (particularly in the evening). If so, get in touch! Our charity/cause of the month changes every 4 weeks, and usually supports a local LGBT+ good cause, community group or organisation.
For this month, 1 from the sale of each Rainbow Cake slice will go directly to them, as well as the proceeds from a number of events we hold each month such as our monthly quiznight and book sale. Flamingos are proud to support small local businesses, just like us! Much of our food is locally sourced (with our salads and sandwiches made on site) and we only serve organic Fairtrade certified tea and ethically sourced North Star coffees.

Services
Now we have returned to lockdown and Flamingos Coffee House is closed, we are again offering a home grocery delivery service. We are continuing with a trial in the Kirkstall area, and if successful we will look to expand and deliver to other areas of Leeds. Delivery is FREE! We will then send you an invoice for payment (or cash on delivery).
Last week, a group of wonderful members of our community came together to set up a crowdfunding page to help us through the next few months. It's terrifying, but many small independents probably won't make it through- and Flamingos is going to struggle, too. Unfortunately, despite numerous government announcements of support, this support is not coming through.
Many of you have asked if you can purchase coffee beans/ground coffee & gift vouchers online. Our lovely neighbours at EcoTopia have added a Flamingos section to their online shop to allow us to sell these. We have set up a home grocery delivery service - starting first as a trial in the Kirkstall area.
On arrival you can make a name tag with your name, pronouns, and anything else you might want to include that you think will be important when meeting new people. There will be time at the end for everyone to mingle and continue conversations - and speak to any other people you have not had the chance to speak to yet!

Only found this place by chance, due to the man with the sign on the main drag. Lovely little place, really thoughtfully put together. Thoroughly enjoyed the avocado and feta sandwich and the pink flamingo hot chocolates which are wonderfully indulgent. Great place to hang out, eat or do lunch with friends. Unpretentious yet nice and quirky

Found this coffee shop by accident and what a great little find.
Super friendly staff who were not pushing and gave time to look at the menu.
I had the pastrami bagel ( with pickles a great little touch) and a long black coffee, all of which was nice and at a really reasonable price
The shop has a lovely chilled vibe.
