ICTChris Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 I'm down in Leeds with work for a few days at the end of the month. Any suggestions for things to do in the evening?
Jason King Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Get pissed. Loads of cracking pubs, get yourself up to Headingly and then drink your way back into town.
Marshmallo Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Roxy Ball Room is a good bar with table tennis, pool, beer pong and mini golf. Plenty good pubs as mentioned above. Depends what you're into for which area to go to.
Boostin' Kev Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Wouldn't recommend Headingley at all personally, I lived there for a while and used to go into the centre for drinks before moving there longer term. Merrion Street, and the 2 Briggates were much better imo but might have changed a bit now. Call Lane if you're looking for a more glamorous feel. Sela, Smokestack, Wardrobe for the music I like and that little run of bars on Merrion St with verve, reform etc were good as well. If you find yourself a bit north of the bus station Reliance and Sandanista are worth checking out. If it's a nice day head to the Calls by the water for an al fresco beer with a nice view.
Sergeant Wilson Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Depends what you're looking for and where. I'v never ventured far from the centre unless I'm going to some non league game. United have always been away, as have the Rhinos. Kev is a bit trendier than me, but to drink, and eat, you can look up tapped, granary wharf and the Northern Monk Brewery. The alley pubs are a bit hit and miss. I paid £8.00 for a pint in one, when caught off guard. The Headrow is good as well, but some of the other pubs near it are mental. On no account go to Bradford, unless you have to.

Sergeant Wilson Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 3 minutes ago, heedthebaa said: Id like to meet the person who prised £8 for a pint oot your hand I think I might have told this before. I was looking at the menu, and just chose a draught beer almost at random. It was a juniper flavoured IPA. The barman started pouring and did tell me it was more expensive than most due to the high strength. I ok'd it, then he told me how much. I was too embarrassed to back out, so took it on the chin. It was nice, but not £8 nice.
heedthebaa Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Hope you sipped and savoured every drop for fucking £8
Enigma Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 There's a Harvey Nichols in Leeds that everyone goes on about, as if that's the answer to something.
SweeperDee Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Alchemist cocktail bar is pretty nifty, if you want to pay £13 per drink.

Savage Henry Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 There's a very good Thai place slap in the city centre. Only problem with it is that it's slap in the city centre. There's also a nice wee boozer that's actually a boat. Worth popping into in the afternoon/early evening before it gets too busy.
Boostin' Kev Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 Thai is probably Chaophrya there's one here now as well. Boat pub sounds like Dry Dock, studenty but decent.
