The Coolest Eateries in Leeds
"What: Taking its inspiration from the New York nightlife, you'll feel like you've teleported to a Manhattan rooftop when stepping out onto the terrace at East 59th. Contemporary American dishes including burgers and prawns cooked on the BBQ are accompanied by creative cocktails, which can be enjoyed late into the night. Saturday nights see DJs take to the decks on the terrace, making it a particularly great place to come with friends.Where: 3rd Floor Rooftop, Victoria Gate, George Street, LS2 7AU"
"If you’re looking for a Sunday brunch with friends, East 59th is doubtless the best option in the city. The rooftop restaurant and bar is located on the third floor of Victoria Gate shopping centre. East 59th brings you contemporary dining in a sophisticated Manhattan-style restaurant."
"From sweet crêpes to fluffy American pancakes and authentic Breton galletes, there’s so many options you’ll be positively spoilt for choice. If you’re after something savoury, you can get a gallete with cheese, creamed spinach and Lishman’s ham."
"Angelica is home to one of the most spectacular roof terraces in Leeds. South-facing, this outdoor area offers breathtaking views over the city. It’s vast and spacious, so maintaining social distancing is a doddle, and when the air cools, there are blankets and plenty of outdoor heaters."
"It's not hard to see why Angelica is regarded as one of Leeds' best rooftop restaurants. Along with a mouthwatering menu of fine dining dishes, a beautiful sky-high terrace and a stellar selection of cocktails, the Trinity haunt boasts enviable views across the city."
"The interior of this popular hipster bar is definitely photogenic, but it’s the roof terrace that is the focus of most Instagram shots. On warm, dry days it’s the perfect place to sit with a drink, admiring the views of the city from above – and when night falls the neon red ‘You Used to Call Me on Your Cell Phone’ sign is the subject of most phone camera lenses."
"With its Germanic beer hall, swanky redondo beach and that roof terrace for long sunset sessions, Headrow is dating paradise. With buy one get the second for £1 cocktails, you can neck the nerves and maybe even get a snap for the ‘gram. Loved up couples tend to hang here looking smug, so you might as well join in."
"Belgrave's sister bar Headrow House has one of the biggest outdoor terraces in Leeds, set over two floors. It offers stunning views over the rooftops of the city."
"Water Lane Boathouse is the perfect place to enjoy a few drinks outside in Leeds. Waterfront location, giant beer garden and local breweries on tap make it a surefire winner. There’s plenty of room to settle down on their picnic tables that overlook the River Aire."
"With a range of craft beers from all over the UK, Water Lane Boathouse knows a thing or two about ice-cold summer sips. Perched on the edge of the canal, this gorgeous space is the perfect place to soak up a few rays with a pint in hand."
"Watch canal boats chug into Granary Wharf from the floor-to-ceiling windows or generous outside seating area at this beer bar, occupying a prime historic spot on the water close enough to clink glasses with... Top ChoiceBrewery in Leeds"
"A quirky pub nestled behind Kirkgate Market, Crowd of Favours has everything you need to keep your brood entertained. The traditional board games are ideal for a family face-off. It’s a popular choice (with both little and big kids alike), especially when they have their film nights, which range from Lord of the Rings to Harry Potter."
"Another stalwart on the Leeds clubbing scene, Mint Club has been the go-to club for house and techno music since it opened its doors back in 1997. As well as welcoming the best DJs in the country, the club also gives newcomers to the scene a chance to take to the decks, allowing clubbers to sample the best up-and-coming music. Anyone who loves dance music is guaranteed a great night here."
"Even if you’ve been to every other club in the world, you still won’t have experienced anything quite like MiNT. Situated toward the top of the city centre, MiNT is tucked away down a dodgy-looking back alley – but don’t let this put you off. If you ever wondered what it would be like to have a night out in the late ’80s/early ’90s, then MiNT is the place for you."
"Today would have Mint Festival 2020 😞, it's a shame we can't be with you all dancing today but we hope to see you all next year. 💚 Tickets are now on sale for Mint Festival 2021 – Rescheduled at £35 + bf for a limited time. BUY TICKETS – www.mintfestival.co.uk"
"Of course, Scottish craft brew purveyors BrewDog have earned their title as one of Leeds' best spots for a craft brew. With a dazzling array of creations on tap alongside a fridge full of bottles to explore, they're a top choice for refeshing beer and juicy burgers."
"The Rooftop at East Parade Social is bang in the middle of Leeds, overlooking some amazing sights – Leeds Town Hall being just one. Take in the sights as you soak up the sun – you’ll get plenty of that."
"Totally possible in this social dining space that combines hipster decor with a kickass rooftop, and has a regular ‘Dog of the Day’ on Instagram (see above)."
"Owned and managed by Nick Risidi, Amici is a popular Italian restaurant in the centre of Keighley. Amici, which means “friends” is the perfect name for a place as welcoming as this. Prior to founding Amici, Nick spent many years working in and then managing one of his father’s restaurants in Bradford."
"Visited Amici's restaurant for their Italian night which is £9.95 for a 4 course meal every monday night. The set menu changes every week so we were not sure…”more"
