Caballero Lounge
About This Spot
Stepping into Caballero Lounge feels like finding a quietly inviting nook in the midst of Leeds’ bustling Springs area. It strikes a balance between the ease of a local café and the comfort of a family restaurant, where the pace naturally slows just enough to savor both conversation and the moments between bites. Warm lighting and thoughtfully chosen décor welcome you to settle in, whether you’ve popped by early for breakfast or are unwinding after work with one of their carefully crafted drinks.
The atmosphere here hums with a gentle friendliness that never feels rushed, supported by staff who clearly enjoy what they do and foster a space where you can feel genuinely looked after. It’s the kind of place where you might grab a coffee and chat at the counter, or linger over a meal with loved ones without the usual noise of a busy urban eatery.
Caballero Lounge embraces a mindful approach to food that caters to a wide variety of tastes and dietary needs, from hearty comfort offerings to creative vegan and gluten-free choices. From thoughtfully stacked buttermilk pancakes that invite indulgence, to vibrant, spiced curries and fresh, textured flatbreads — every dish feels like a small discovery. Their passion for careful preparation and fresh ingredients shines through, whether you’re choosing a breakfast tea to start the day or unwinding with a well-balanced cocktail as the afternoon unfolds.
The subtle buzz of conversations, punctuated by the clinking of glasses and soft music, shapes an experience that feels like a shared local secret rather than a mere dining stop. It’s clear why people return here not only for the food but for the unpretentious warmth that makes each visit feel a little like coming home.

Good service and wait for food on a Saturday morning was only about 20 mins. The food and drink quality was good. We felt the price of the pancakes was high for what it was

10/10 experience. Lovely ambience and staff. You can either order on your phone or at the bar. We came for tapas Tuesday (after 5pm) and enjoyed a lovely Cruzcampo on the house. The floor staff, Chloe, was lovely when bringing our food, getting extra sauces and double checking everything was okay. Always makes an experience better with happy staff and you definitely get this here. Food was brilliant, we got tapas items we’d never get as a full meal and they were all lovely, lamb kofte, spicy beef quesadillas and harissa chicken. The halloumi burger and Louisiana tender were brilliant too. Thankyou to the chefs and staff we’ll definitely be back.

Called here for breakfast while shopping. Only wanted a sandwich and it didn’t disappoint. The staff were friendly and the restaurant nicely decorated. Would happily call here again.

Dropped in Sunday morning for Fathers Day breakfast. We received a warm welcome by a member of staff and quickly seated. Easy to order food and drinks at the bar. We had 3 lounge breakfasts , a bacon sandwich and drinks, which arrived in good time and were good . The atmosphere and the politeness of the staff were superb

I came here on a whim, on my own, after doing some after work shopping last Monday. I discovered 'Cheeky Monday' where you can decide between a free pudding or free glass of wine, with any purchase of a main meal or burger meal. I ordered the 'Goan Cauliflower Curry' and 'Vanilla & White Chocolate Cheesecake'. Both were absolutely delicious and I couldn't fault anything. From placing my order to receiving my main, it took 11 minutes.... can't ask for much better service than that. Will happily come back here again :)

Just had a late lunch of two tapas boards, 6 different dishes with my wife. Service was excellent and Rory told us which dishes were on each board. When Rory took the order at the bar he checked to make sure there were no allergies and then brought the pot of tea to the table for us. All the food was superb and the background music is at a comfortable level. All in all it was an excellent experience and we'll definitely be back.

This is the best meal I’ve ever had! So many gluten free options it was difficult to choose which is rare! Whoever made my beyond burger is the most amazing chef ever, SOOOO DELICIOUS!!!! Best burger in Leeds! Would recommend to everyone!!!! The service was the best I’ve ever experienced, Jack was so friendly and really made effort to chat to us and it made our evening! He even checked back on us to make sure the food was all good. Wow wow wow my new favourite restaurant! I will definitely be back

We thought we would treat ourselves to a meal out mid week and went for the Tapas Tuesday. Well worth the price, excellent service, delicious food and a lovely environment. We will definitely be going again. A good addition to The Springs.
