Reviewing every last watering hole in Leeds city centre

Lazy Lounge

A popular corporate-ish spot with a recently improved selection of brews.

Full Review

West Riding

A nicely renovated pub right near the station, with a rather lacklustre selection of beer.

Full Review

Belgrave Music Hall & Canteen

It’s like someone reached inside our brains and constructed a place out of all our favourite things.

Full Review

The Merchant

A student chain pub, serving dirty food and dirty beer.

Full Review

The Shed Bar

Friendly indie music bar in a railway arch.

Full Review

The Faversham

Surprising little upmarket craft beer house right on the edge of the University campus.

Full Review

Lounge Bar & Grill

This truly amazing building hides a pub with a decent enough beer selection and a great terrace. Shame about the interior design.

Full Review

Mook

Huge unpretentious bar/club. Look out for Jesus.

Full Review

Duck & Drake

The famous live music venue also has an amazing beer terrace and a ridiculous number of cask ales.

Full Review

Wetherspoon’s — The Hedley Verity

It’s a Wetherspoon’s. See all our other reviews of Wetherspoon’s.

Full Review

Brooklyn Bar

Not the best beer in Leeds, by any means, but quite possibly the best beer on Call Lane.

Full Review

Fox & Newt

The only pub in the city centre to brew its own cask ale, and that’s not even the best thing about it.

Full Review

Stew & Oyster — Calls Landing

A picturesque spot on The Calls, offering a couple of real ales and absolutely flush with craft bottles.

Full Review

Aire Bar

Looks like a gym on the outside, but exercise kit is about the only thing you won’t find in here!

Full Review

The White Swan

This historic pub has a new lease of life under Leeds Brewery, with a great beer selection and atmosphere to boot.

Full Review

Épernay

This champagne bar is good if you want to choose your Ilkley beer by the colour of the bottle.

Full Review

Peachy Keens

Not much to sell this place to us. Good if you want dancing-related events, I guess.

Full Review

All Bar One — The Electric Press

A chain bar with a surprisingly appealing selection of beer.

Full Review

Fibre

This gay-friendly café-bar crossover has a lot going for it, but sadly not its beer selection.

Full Review

Revolution — The Electric Press

A great place to go if you like vodka and crowds. Otherwise — Millennium Square has better things to offer.
