Your Leeds guide to beer, beer bars, breweries and brewpubs
"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"
"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."
"If you want to know where all the beautiful people of Leeds head when the sun shines, then take a trip to Angelica. Located in Trinity shopping centre, this rooftop bar and garden is the closest you’ll get to Ibiza without hopping on a plane. With panoramic views of Leeds, plush white furniture, and a stunningly curated cocktail list, Angelica brings the glamour."
"Trinity Leeds, Albion Street, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS1 5ER. Boasting panoramic views of the city, this sixth-floor D&D-owned restaurant/bar was made for celebrating. Swanky modern interiors go hand-in-hand with a menu full of international favourites spanning brunch to dinner."
"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."
"When it comes to alfresco dining and sunshine drinks, the team behind Headrow House, Belgrave, et al, have most definitely raised the bar, quite literally. Their rooftop ‘beer garden’ is one of the go-to destinations when the sun makes an appearance. With a stellar selection of craft beers and cocktails together with 2020’s foodie revelation ‘Spitz Kebabs’ from Ox Club."
"This charming restaurant housed in a former textile mill serves quality dishes in an adorable setting. It’s the kind of place you can visit with friends, on a date or with your parents at the weekend."
"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."
"What: It may not have the biggest outdoor area around but legendary Leeds boozer The Reliance does have a few tables out front which can be booked in advance. Food here comes in the form of small international plates such as duck ragu papardelle, mussels, and asparagus with a poached egg. We suggest getting a selection of dishes to share with the whole table while soaking up some rare Leeds sunchine (if you're lucky with the weather that is).Where: 76-78 North Street, LS2 7PN"
"On the edge of the city centre, The Reliance cooks up modern British dishes in a friendly and informal atmosphere. As well as its wide selection of craft ales, the dishes include Yorkshire pork sausages, Erdinger-battered haddock and spatchcocked poussin. The in-house charcuterie uses only the best, locally sourced rare-breed pork from the Taste Tradition in North Yorkshire, which is cured in the restaurant itself."
"A bar and restaurant combined, The Reliance doesn’t have to shout about what it does, because it does it so gosh darned well. Behind the bar, they have craft beer, quality wine and all the spirits you could desire, but it’s the kitchen that really impresses. This is British food, done well and served up in a bar that’s completely down to earth – try their homemade charcuterie, it’s sensational."
"Valhalla is York’s only traditional Viking pub and just being there is an entire experience in itself!. You’ll find people drinking strong, strange ales and mead out of a real Viking drinking horn!. The do also serve regular beers, lagers and spirits as well, but no cocktails unfortunately!"
"Just a few minutes from the Shipley Glen tramway lies a stunning country pub on Baildon Moor. The classic Yorkshire bricks, wood-burning stoves and huge beer garden with amazing views make The Old Glen House well worth a trip out of the city – especially if you have the pooch with you as it’s super dog-friendly. You can look forward to delicious pub grub and a mean Sunday roast, which you can pair with ales, wine and spirits."

"Fossgate rivals Bishy Road for the title of “independent central” given the preponderance of great locally owned businesses that make it such an epicurean honeypot. Taking its name from its locality, this chameleonesque café bar attracts a varied clientele who come for top notch coffee and snacks during daylight and a warm intimate atmosphere with craft beers, spirits and cocktails later in the day. You feel welcome whether wandering in on your own or part of a group."
"This independent coffee shop and bar is the perfect place to escape into from the bustling Fossgate street!. With a warm, cosy and friendly atmosphere, it’s easy to wile away the hours in here well into the evening. Which is perfect, since they serve up delicious cocktails too."
