We're Hiring!

We've got an exciting new vacancy for someone to come and manage our main University shop.

Opposite has been running for 5 years now, situated directly opposite the iconic Parkinson Building of Leeds University: its a busy, fast-paced site with plenty of fun to be had. We're passionate about coffee and food, and we want to find someone to join our growing team who shares our enthusiasm.

If you love coffee, have the right experience and want to get involved in steering the course of a successful young business, get more info from over here

In return, we'll make sure that you love your job, you're well paid and you get the support you need to do a great job.

Get in touch!

If you love drinking brilliant coffee, eating lovely homemade fresh food, listening to random music or hanging out on fat sofas looking at pictures - especially drinking brilliant coffee - then we have a place for you in one of our hearts.

We now have 2 hearts. Our original Leeds University site (yes, Opposite Leeds University) was built to bring fairtrade coffee, healthy affordable food and a community space for all the lonesome art students to Leeds. Still an iconic hangout, and famous for chocolate brownies and staff that are mad as badgers.

Our new, grown up shop in the Victoria Quarter brings sophistication in coffee slurping to the North with seasonal espresso and single origin filter coffees from around the world. A place where true connoisseurs can gather and experience enlightenment. Yes, we still have homemade brownies here too.

Different shops for different people, but then you wouldn’t want everywhere to be the same would you?
