Made my first visit on Saturday night and was very impressed with the quality of the beer and friendliness of the staff. A bit pricey if you're a lager drinker, but then I'm tempted to say serves you right ;)
Will definitely be returning.

Very rude staff. Gets ridiculously busy at times and its impossible to get near the bar because of the design of the pub. Can't fault the range here but not cheap either.

This is a Market Town Tavern. All of the ones I have been in are intelligently run, friendly and with very high beer standards. This one is well up to the mark, but small, with more seats and the toilets up lots of stairs. Will be going again, but probably not at peak times.

Former shop in the Arndale centre - good range of beer for the discerning quaffer - easily the best beer in the area
|
fantastic, relaxed yet often packed little bar which serves an excellent variety of real ales which are constantly changing. A good escape from the mainstream headingly crowd.

The only place in Headingley where you can get quality real ale.

Best bar in Leeds, excellent selection of beer and well kept. Welcoming atmosphere, not in the slightest bit pretentious as wine bars of this calibre so often are. The staff really know their product and are always friendly and welcoming. The food is great, especially the homemade soups-yummy!
|
beer selection and condition excellent. Food good. Service friendly and mostly efficient but far too few staff at busy times.

An oasis of real ale, NO SMOKING, no bandits and no kids where dogs are welcome. As a local resident, I was pleased when this small bar opened; It serves a small but very tasty menue up to 8pm.
Could do with some soft furnishings to deaden the sound.
Fancy dress is not allowed so misses a lot of the looney students on the Run; Hooray!
It would only appear "stuck up" to people who like/are used to noisy, student, keg pubs; each to their own, I say.

Stuck up, to small

By far the best alehouse before/after the rugby or cricket.

The real ale here is great - a wide selection that is usually kept well. Unfortunately the pub is now far too popular with passing Otley Runners and discerning students and gets horribly busy from about 8pm until closing on Friday and Saturday nights. The lack of soft furnishings means that what was once a hubbub of conversation has become far too loud. Beware the aircon - it's usually boiling hot upstairs and freezing cold downstairs. Some of the bar staff are excellent and pull a lovely pint, with some all you get is a long queue and a pint of head. I've been going to the pub since it opened and I had great hopes of it becoming my "local" - I love the idea of no music and no smoking. I wonder if they can make it bigger?

A veritable oasis for beer lovers in a predominantly student pub area. Part of Market Town Taverns chain of no-smoking pubs (8 of them). 5-6 regularly changing real ales plus wide range of bottled beers from around the world. Great atmosphere with no music - just the hubbub of conversation.
