Externally and internally what you would expect from one of the bigger Wetherspoon's venues, in this case a former bank as the name implies. I had a well-cooked breakfast and a pint in good condition: the ale selection was particularly interesting, mainly local and it was unfortunate I only had time for the one. Staff pleasant and friendly, although the place was not very busy. Well worth the visit and a better than average advertisement for the JDW chain.

Another of Wetherspoons bank conversion jobs. Very very busy but I got served pretty quickly and the beer was fine. Bouncers on the doors of this attractive old building. Standard 'spoons offerings for beer and food but the bar was quite imposing and I will go back on a quieter day to see more of the place.

A short walk from Leeds railway station, I visited this Wetherpoons a couple of Saturdays ago and was quietly impressed.

This is a large single room pub, with an equally large upstairs section which overlooks the main bar.

The décor & seating is as you would expect from Spoons, mixed, modern and comfortable and is typical for the brand.

On the day of my visit the pub was fairly busy, the bulk of the clientèle being of couples in the younger to middle age group.

I found the staff to be very friendly & helpful and I didn't have to ask for a "top up" once, which for me is always a bonus.

The food? I chose they spicy noodles with chicken, it was surprisingly good, served promptly (considering it was busy), was hot and represented good value for money.

The beers? No complaints what so ever here, a good range of 8 real ales on tap, with local examples from Saltaire & Elland to classic multi nationals like Marstons "Old Empire"

Negatives? None really, the only minus in an otherwise good visit were the toilets. They were clean but as I so often find in Wetherspoons subject to some vandalism which sadly at that time remained un-repaired. This is not unique to them however, but alas I fear a sad reflection on today's society?

I;d say the place is a bit too big, and trying to get served seems to be a real task! mucho shouting over to forgetful barmen and maids.

Otherwise good pub, good range of beers, in town center, pretty awesome.

A wetherspoons that plays music? wow! A typical wetherspoons that has all the trimmings you would normally expect, decent food, great range of drinks and even a family area down the back for the kiddies to eat. Gets very busy here on a weekend as it is right in the middle of 2 very popular areas to drink in Leeds, the civic quarter and Boar lane. Give it a try.
