Most of you are pretty familiar with Leeds, so we’ve decided to spotlight a few venues that are a little off the beaten track, closer to Springwell. And popped in a couple of our favourites in town too!
our local no-frills boozer. Very old school, eclectic mix of regulars, cheap pints (good Guinness) and a cracking selection of crisps. 2 mins walk down the road from Springwell.
280 MEANWOOD ROAD, LS7 2HZ
Our nearest bottle shop and bar in Chapel Town. Open Friday 4–10pm and Saturday 2–10pm so please do sneak out on a break to visit them.
223 CHAPELTOWN ROAD, LS7 3DX
Family friendly gastro pub done well. Good selection of beers alongside more mainstream classics. Serve roasts on a Sunday until 9pm if you want to squeeze one in after you finish pouring!
STAINBECK RD, CHAPEL ALLERTON, LS7 2NP
15 mins walk from Springwell, great coffee, friendly staff, incredible brownies.
2 THE CRESCENT, WOODHOUSE, LS6 2NW
Slightly ramshackle but very loveable indie venue in Woodhouse. Great breakfast options with vegans properly catered for.
27 – 29 HEADINGLEY LANE, LS6 1BL
Truly brilliant curries, overly bling décor, Pinata on tap, lots of TVs showing sport. At the top of the hill 5 mins walk from Springwell.
SAVILE DRIVE, LS7 3EJ
A Leeds classic. Great coffee. Next to the station. A must if you’re travelling by train.
16 NEW STATION STREET, LS1 5DL
Your closest North venue is Alfred in Meanwood. There’s no doubt we will end up in North Bar (followed by Mojos, followed by Karaoke…?) at some point over the weekend.
