LEAF Smithdown is a tea shop, bar and restaurant at 364–368 Smithdown Road in Liverpool. The spacious neighbourhood venue extends the independent LEAF identity beyond the city centre, combining an informal dining room with a programme of community and social events. It works equally naturally for a daytime catch up or a longer evening visit.

Food is served across the day, moving from breakfasts and brunch dishes into more substantial later meals. Familiar favourites sit beside plant based choices and dishes influenced by a broader range of cuisines. The flexible menu makes it practical for groups arriving with different appetites and dietary preferences.

Tea is fundamental to the experience rather than a token addition, with more than sixty loose leaf varieties available. Coffee, cakes and desserts support a shorter visit, while the bar adds wine, beer and cocktails for evenings and celebrations. Guests with allergies should use the latest menu information and speak with staff before ordering.

The Smithdown Road setting gives LEAF a strong local character, while table bookings and event programming bring extra energy to the room. Breakfast, a pot of carefully chosen tea, a relaxed dinner or drinks with friends can all fit the same venue. LEAF Smithdown joins an accessible all day menu with one of Liverpool’s most distinctive tea selections.

Address: 364–368 Smithdown Road, Liverpool L15 5AN, United Kingdom
