Lovely servers, great drinks! My brothers and I love coming here. The interior is lovely, especially upstairs which is very cozy! Some of the best boba in leeds ❤️

Stunning venue with lovely acoustics and a real connection to the stage. The bar is well stocked with a wide selection of craft and real ales, spirits and wines. Very, very highly recommended 👌🏻

Great venue and the quartet were amazing. We listened to Ed Sheeran and cold play. The atmosphere was warm and cosy and staff were friendly. Nice to have a bar so that we could enjoy a glass of wine whilst enjoying the music.
