THANK YOU MCR, HELLO LEEDS 👋

It might look glamorous, chic, effortless on the streets of Leeds but it’s the most uncomfortable thing to sit in unless it’s stationary and the sauna is on!

Anyway, we wanted to say how lucky we feel to be able to bring the Kontrast vibes to Leeds very soon.

Thank you Manchester for supporting us, nurturing the community with us, great chats in the sauna and encouragement around the ice baths, this wouldn’t be possible without you!

We can’t wait to bring all of this to Leeds 🖤

We’re are so excited to be Hiring!

(MCR + Leeds)

As we open our second site, we’re looking a manager to help form our team and a new team member at our wonderful MCR site to join us:

General Manager – Leeds (Full-time)
Lead the space day-to-day. You’ll run operations, build and manage the team, and create a consistent, community-driven experience across the space & café.

→ Ideal to have barista training + strong operations or event experience.

Host / Barista – MCR & Leeds (Part-time)

Front-of-house all-rounder. You’ll run solo shifts, make great coffee, maintain high standards, and the create a calm, welcoming space we’re known for

→ Barista experience is pretty essential.
Weekend availability is a must!

If you’re as excited as we are, we’d love to hear from you!

🚨Our Infrared Room

Light based heat gently builds for lasting effects ✨

We hear lots of myths about the infrared, so we’ll share our favourite facts about this powerful little tool here ⬇️

- Drier heat, means you can read your book in there without it melting

- Instant benefits! You don’t Have to spend 40 minutes in it, yes the heat builds slower especially after an ice bath but your body benefits fast

- Encourages deep sweat which can lead to skin improvements & detoxification

- The light can travel up to 4cm into tissues which eases pain and stiffness. This also enhances muscle recovery
