Best weekly restaurant deals in Leeds - The Skinny
"What: This trendy New York style rooftop bar and restaurant is a great spot in which to start the weekend, particularly when you factor in its fantastic bottomless brunch. Here you can feast on the likes of avocado on toast, eggs cooked in various ways, and burgers, all while enjoying free-flowing bubbly or Bloody Marys for 90 minutes. It’s worth noting that East 59th’s weekend bottomless brunch is popular with groups and parties, so it’s best to book ahead.Where: East 59th, 47 Victoria Gate, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS2 7AU"
"This summer will bring another rooftop dining destination to the city in the form of this glamourous Manhattan-style bar and grill opening in Victoria Gate in July. Guests can enjoy al fresco dining from the delicious US-themed menu, along with indulgent brunches, and bask in an authentic taste of New York in the heart of Leeds. Visit: 46 Victoria Street, LS2 7AU"
"East 59th brings US-inspired cuisine into the centre of Leeds. The New York City-style bar and grill offers guests a contemporary American dining experience throughout the day, then seamlessly transitions into a sophisticated Manhattan-style rooftop nightspot."
"It’s one of the city’s most glamourous dining venues thanks to its prestigious location on the top floor of Trinity Leeds. While the sleek and modern interior is certainly inviting, a visit to Angelica wouldn’t be complete without heading onto the wraparound outdoor terrace to take in the panoramic views. A popular cocktail destination, it’s a great venue to kick-start your evening."
"This Trinity Leeds rooftop restaurant boasts panoramic views and sleek interiors. Alongside a variety of fine dining options and an impressive cocktail menu, Angelica transforms into a lively bar when night falls, regularly playing host to club nights, DJ sets and summertime BBQs."
"Angelica, at the very top of Trinity Leeds, is a luxurious spot at any time of day, but to really get the most out of it we’d recommend visiting at night. Drinking cocktails on their terrace and watching the world go by is an absolute dream, as is their impressive food menu."
"Steak and chips for £5 is the signature special of this multi-space eatery–a mix of food space, beer hall, gig location and sceney rooftop–where fluffy pals are not just welcomed, but are often rewarded with a starring role on Headrow’s Instagram page. The action happens over four floors, in what was previously a textile mill. Standout features include the beer hall’s collection of four tanks of unpasteurised Pilsner and 60 international beers, plus the upstairs terraces–where you can while away a relaxed evening, and your dog has space for a leg stretch when it needs it (also known as flashing puppy eyes at other people to attract more cuddles)."
"The first promises long benches, collapsible parasols and overhead heaters, with a toe-tapping soundtrack provided by live DJs. The second is another floor up, with a mix of covered huts and open benches ripe for the picking. This is craft beer heaven, so expect local and global favourites."
"From the same team behind Headrow House comes Waterlane Boathouse. With canal-side views and a sprawling cobbled beer garden, there are few better places to catch the rays than this stunning spot. With a vast array of beers, wines and cocktails, and a menu of wood-fired pizzas and mouthwatering burgers."
"If you're looking to escape the chaos of the city centre, head to Water Lane Boathouse, the gorgeous pub that's located on the banks of Leeds' Canal Wharf. Watch narrowboats float by as you tuck into a selection of hearty burgers and stone-baked pizzas."
"The ultimate alfresco spot, Water Lane Boathouse boasts stunning views of Leeds' Canal Wharf, as well as a mouthwatering menu. Take a window seat or perch on one of the outdoor benches to watch the world float by as you chow down."
"Transporting you back in time, Flares nightclub is the place to go for 90s tunes and throwback fun. When it comes to nightclubs in York, don’t take Flares to seriously as it’s all about the cheesy music and colourful dance floor. This is the perfect venue for a girls night out or hen party where you want to dress up and singalong to hit songs and musical numbers."
"The Malmaison hotel in the converted Leeds City Tramways Office puts modernity and comfort at the heart of its mission, and has more than 100 stylish and fun rooms to choose from. A short walk from Leeds railway station, this is the ideal spot for those looking to embark on day trips out of the city. High-end shopping’s available nearby at the Trinity Leeds leisure centre, which has a wealth of large and boutique outlets for quality spending."
"Malmaisons are dotted across the country but the Leeds outpost manages to feel like an independent boutique hotel. This plush, atmospheric establishment set in a Victorian office block is imposing and intimate at the same time. It makes a perfect overnight stay for anyone wanting a weekend in the city."
"Malmaison Hotel is a historic and dramatic building, full of character and individual style located in Leeds. Beautifully refurbished cool and sexy rooms with power…"

"The fourth Ossett Brewery Hop site has a rather overdesigned bar (fancy, pump-clip print wallpaper, jazzy floor tiles and vintage mirrors, ornate art deco lights) opening out into a cavernous pizza restaurant and live music venue. If it feels a little plastic, you can't fault the beer across nine keg and 11 cask pumps. Ossett beers feature prominently of course, as do beers from its rather more buccaneer microbrewery offshoots, Rat and Fernandes."
"The Hop York is a unique real ale house and an exciting drinking establishment located at the heart of York on Fossgate, serving up delicious wood-fired pizza and Ossett Brewery ales, as well as hosting weekly music. Everyday our kitchen is serving up the tastiest pizza in town, freshly wood-fired to create the perfect taste sensation."
"This east Leeds Chinese has an army of fans who simply can't get enough of Rice Paper's "perfect food". A recent review said: "I've struggled for over ten years to find a Chinese takeout in England that was half decent. "Got to the point that I gave up trying and accepted they were all average [but I] tried Rice Paper last night and we ordered the Deluxe menu for 2 to try a bit of everything."
"A family run affair – Rice Paper Cantonese is a local classic found in LS15, a little away from the city centre. However, it gets a place on this roundup because of its glistening reputation and the wonderful, indulgent Cantonese food that it produces. One to put on the list if you’re looking to indulge, there’s a good mix in terms of Westernised favourites and authentic home cooking."
"Customers say that they receive excellent service, as the staff is friendly and the food is served quickly. Rice Paper is both a restaurant and a takeaway, and it has built an outstanding reputation for the quality of the food. Customers also note that the portion sizes are good."
"Sunny Bank Mills was once a key part of the city’s industrial past, but since being restored by the Gaunt family, it’s been turned into a multi-purpose creative space with a 3,000-square-foot art gallery at its heart. It’s one of the best galleries in Leeds to find exhibitions by local artists, as it gives them a platform to show their work, from Mel Davies’ colourful landscapes to Kate Kenney’s oil paintings of Yorkshire. It’s also home to Spinning Mill Studios, where local artists and makers create and display their work."
"The Bingley Gallery, 29A Park Road, Bingley, West Yorkshire, BD16 4BQ - Visit now. The Bingley Gallery is a hidden haven of local art work and changing exhibitions. Curated by visual artist David Starley."
