A popular brunch hotspot is opening a second venue in Leeds.
House of Koko will soon be up and running in Oakwood after enjoying success in Chapel Allerton. The new venture will take on the former base of Hessian.
House of Koko will open in Oakwood on Friday, March 4 with staff remaining from the Hessian venue.

House of Koko owner Rosita Roger said: “We‘re so excited to expand into another exciting Leeds foodie suburb. This up-and-coming area already has some fab foodie offerings, and we’re so happy to be joining the club.
“Establishing ourselves as a regular evening venue is also an exciting new step for us, and a challenge we are ready to meet head on.”

Rosita promised House of Koko will continue their commitment to sourcing local produce in their Oakwood venue - from the coffee to the cakes to the vegetables.
There will be cakes courtesy of Savvy Baker alongside Glazed and Confused with coffee coming from North Star.
House of Koko will serve vegan options alongside both healthy and indulgent brunch dishes, from the likes of Turkish eggs to maple syrup-smothered banana and pecan pancakes.
By April, House of Koko intends to channel a little of owner Rosita’s other venue - Distrikt bar in Leeds city centre. They will open in the evenings, offering a supper menu of small plates alongside wine and cocktails with DJs potentially performing.
Rosita concluded: “Once we have the evenings up and running, hopefully in April, we’ll be using a good friend of mine - Leng Libation - for cocktails.
“We’ll also have some local breweries on tap and some great organic wine. We’re also planning picnic packages for the summer - watch this space.”
