If you’ve searched for “Italian brunch Leeds”, “brunch in Leeds city centre”, or “best brunch in Leeds”, you’ve probably noticed something.
Most brunch menus look familiar.
Toast. Eggs. The usual.
Then there’s Nesso Coffee Leeds — where Italian comfort food quietly takes over brunch.
And the Focaccia Marinara is exactly where that shift begins.
This Isn’t Just Focaccia. This Is an Italian Brunch Staple.
Let’s be clear.
This isn’t a side bread.
This isn’t something you ignore on the menu.
This is warm, indulgent, flavour-led focaccia that turns brunch into a proper meal.
What lands on the plate:
- 7” baked tomato focaccia
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Rich tomato sauce
- Sun-blush cherry tomatoes
- Garlic butter
- Fresh jalapeño
- Finished with mature cheddar cheese
Want to upgrade it?
- Add Mortadella ham (NH)
- Or smoked salmon (+£1.50)
Simple ingredients. Big flavour. Very Italian.
