The Leeds Loves awards have launched and we want you to tell us why our city is such a special place.
Leeds Loves will celebrate the very best of our wonderful city’s hospitality industry. If you have a favourite restaurant, pub or coffee shop in Leeds this is your chance to show them a little love.
The awards, run by us here at LeedsLive, include 10 categories. You have until midnight on Monday, April 18 to nominate your favourite by filling in this form.

We’ll then put shortlists together and open the voting as we look to crown this year's winners. Once the voting is concluded winners of the Leeds Loves awards will be announced in May.
The coronavirus pandemic brought huge challenges to the city's hospitality. It saw them adapt in so many ways to offer us a little bit of escapism. The Leeds Loves awards aims to bring some much-deserved recognition to businesses from that sector.
Editor Wayne Ankers said: "It is amazing to see so many venues back open and bustling with customers. So we thought now is the right time to celebrate the best places we have in Leeds and give you the chance to show how much you love them.
"There are so many brilliant venues across the city and it is your chance to show your support. We want to really shout about what our incredible city has to offer so get involved, nominate your favourites and we will do the rest."
