Best Dinner Places to Eat in River Aire

"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."

"Angelica has the highest rooftop bar in Trinity Leeds, and the views across the city are absolutely incredible. See alsoA Movie Lover's Guide to the West Midlands. The terrace is super Instagrammable, too, as it’s decorated with trees, lavender and shrubbery."

"Set high in the Leeds Trinity Building, Angelica is a mainstay when it comes to Leeds restaurants with views. Given its high position, both the indoor and outdoor dining spaces look over the city, making date night all the more special."

"Boasting the high quality restaurant the Ox Club, a beer hall with brews from around the globe and a live music venue. That’s all before you make your way up to Redondo Beach & Roof Terrace; their very own very own cocktail bar that leads out onto the roof terrace complete with kitchen, outdoor bar and sheltered areas with plenty of seating."

"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."

"A former textile mill and one-time grotty dive pub, the historic building that now houses Headrow House was given a hefty makeover to transform it into the four-floor nightlife venue it is today."

"There was much fanfare when Trinity Leeds, the immense shopping centre, opened in 2013. Housing many chain restaurants, there is one establishment, however, that stands out from the rest. On the 5th floor, you can find the award-winning Crafthouse: a restaurant that has quickly forged an impressive reputation for fine dining in Leeds."

"The ever-brilliant D&D are the hospitality group behind this restaurant, and they certainly don’t slip up here. Lee Bennet’s kitchen delivers a superb seasonal menu that succeeds thanks to its focus on high-quality local ingredients. Time Out tip: The fish dishes, like pan-seared halibut, are particularly good."

"A post shared by @crafthouse_leeds on Jul 27, 2017 at 9:16am PDT. Crafthouse (from capital-based D&D London) offers views across the city, with a seasonally-changing menu, focusing on quality produce. Highlights here include meat and fish dishes, chargrilled at 480 degrees over charcoal in the Josper oven."

"Encouraging guests to eat, drink and be merry, Fettle is known for its passion for bringing together good food and great company. Brunchers can enjoy a relaxing and organic experience whilst absorbing the picturesque surroundings of Great George Street. This Scandinavian inspired cafe is proud to support its local community in every way possible, serving quality food that has been locally sourced."

"Fettle is a local favourite in Leeds thanks to its yummy food and charming Scandinavian-style décor. Their brunch menu has dishes from across the globe and plenty of options for us meat-free folk to tuck into, while their smaller evening menu also has several veggie-friendly options. If you’re after a calming atmosphere and some delicious food, then get booked in here now."

"Fettle offers an array of tasty clean eats, inspired by cuisines from across the world. You can try the shakshuka, a hearty vegetable stew, brimming with North African spices. Or if you’re feeling particularly hungry, go for their vegan-friendly gnocchi."

"Having been in Harrogate for almost two centuries, The Coach & Horses can be found at the junction of Tower Street and West Park and is found in a vibrant area with no less than 8 pubs. In the past few decades, the pubs changed hands a few times, until being bought by John Nelson in 1996, who purchased the freehold, making a true free house. Since then, the pubs developed under John’s leadership and has become a go-to pub in the area."

"Unit 6, Enterprise Complex Walmgate, York, YO1 9TT01904 848448Website. No venue has made a bigger impact on the recent York pub and brewing scene than Brew York Brewery and Tap. It’s already hosted numerous beer festivals and a major expansion in 2018 will see it take over the whole of the former Maltings next door to make it a one-stop food and beer mecca, as well as expanding its brewery capacity."

"Housed in a cavernous old warehouse, half the floor space in this craft brewery is occupied by giant brewing tanks while the rest is given over to simple wooden drinking benches and a bar with rotating keg and..."

"A trendy hipster hangout offering unique indie brews which are developed in house and brewed upstairs from the bar. Neighbouring the Brewhouse is the Clubhouse, an event space great for larger parties. On weekends, join in on the fun as Cold Bath host street food vendors, pop-ups and more."

"Sited at the top of Micklegate a few yards from the city walls this bar from independent Scottish brewing giants Brewdog opened after a protracted court battle with a local trader – much to the relief of their loyal following of fans in the York area. I say fans because Brewdog as a company have so far attracted investment in their crowdfunding equity scheme from over 100,000 loyal drinkers. The multi-roomed bar is huge."

"20/07/2021: Been going to this place for many years as food is good but service is going down massively. Waited for 15 minutes for somebody to take order as people at front were just chatting with their friends. Finally gave up and went to Nusret Shawarma."

"19/04/2021: nowNEWSaw this restaurant on BBC 1 where Ainsley Harriot & Len Goodman visited. I was not disappointed. Tried the Lamb on the Bone, by far the best in the UK."
