For the past nine years, we’ve proudly built and operated IF Up North — the original café on Call Lane, along with the other locations that followed across Leeds city centre. Over the last three years, we’ve also been roasting our own coffee from our roastery in Armley, refining our approach and developing the coffees we truly believe in.

This year marks an exciting new chapter. We’re shifting our full focus towards roasting and growing our coffee brand, with the goal of reaching more people than ever before. Whether that’s supporting independent cafés in creating their own identity, supplying offices with exceptional coffee, or simply helping more people enjoy great coffee in their everyday lives — that’s where our energy is now.

IF on Call Lane remains open and thriving under a fantastic new team, and we’re proud that they continue to serve our coffee. You can visit them at ifleeds.com and experience the next evolution of that space.

This is a natural progression for us — taking everything we’ve learned from years in hospitality and putting it into what we care about most: roasting approachable, high-quality coffee for everyone.
