Was a lunch date and was made to feel welcome by the host. Food was very good and reasonably priced. Excellent all around.

Lovely friendly staff, great lager/ale on tap and super-fresh and tasty grub! The view of the canal is gorgeous and the temperature inside was just right on a cold and rainy day! Thanks George for the recommendation on the beer! 🍺

A really really nice bar in Leeds Dock’s. Areas inside and out to sit in. Nice music playing inside ands also sports on the TVs that are in the bar. Food is served but we didn’t see a menu whilst we’re were there. Really cosy inside and quite close to places to eat also. Drinks are reasonably priced also. Will worth a visit of your in the area for sure.

Probably not best judged on a dark rainy night when it's packed with people wearing black tie but it's a pleasant enough compact bar that suffers a little with its compromised layout, especially in the entry area. Good decking area outside (not to ve used at night, you will be told off) and comfy enough seating indoors. The toilet is a bit grim. Service a little indifferent and £3 for a soda and lime is on the higher end but relative to their beer prices seems like a bargain. Not somewhere I'd rush back immediately but maybe one to revisit in summer if in the area.
