Top Best American Restaurants in Oakenshaw

"East 59th’s jungle-like roof terrace is blessed with south-facing views over the city’s skyline, which you can take in at your leisure over dinner, and if the weather doesn’t play, you can cosy up under their heat lamps and parasols to keep warm. From the East Cheeseburger to the Seafood Platter, they have a menu of New York-inspired eats to fill your belly. Fancy something lighter?"

"This summer will bring another rooftop dining destination to the city in the form of this glamourous Manhattan-style bar and grill opening in Victoria Gate in July. Guests can enjoy al fresco dining from the delicious US-themed menu, along with indulgent brunches, and bask in an authentic taste of New York in the heart of Leeds. Visit: 46 Victoria Street, LS2 7AU"

"Eat & Drink, Cafés & Tearooms"

"Usually, you know what you are going to get at a TGI’s - good burgers, fajitas and drinks.However, from our arrival the visit was a disappointment. The restaurant had no soft drinks, only cordials and waters. Surely they could have got some bottles if the soda machine wasn’t working?"

"The Castle is a premium pub, bar, and restaurant with its very own garden, centrally located in the heart of the picturesque town of Wakefield."

"343 Barnsley Rd, Wakefield WF2 6AS. Cosy pub with log fires and a smart restaurant, serving sophisticated modern British classics."

"A Chapel Allerton favourite that’s just as popular in the day as at night. Great for breakfast, afternoon tea, Sunday roast and have a great children’s menu. 16-18 Steinbeck Lane, Leeds."

"Just below Tropical World are the beautiful Canal Gardens which again, despite being in the area many times exploring Roundhay Park I had never noticed before I ran past them during a lockdown run. I came back again a couple of weeks later with my new tripod (best purchase!!!) to photograph them. In Spring the rhododendrons are in full bloom in this peaceful place."

"For those who live in Horsforth, it's no secret that this place becomes swamped in the summer months and it's got a bit of everything. If you fancy burning off a few calories then the Trim Trail is one of the best around and it's also plenty big enough for a quick game of cricket or football, but the highlight is undoubtedly the stunning Japanese Garden."

"Just north of Rodley Nature Reserve is this park with a Japanese garden, trails and plenty more. The main entrance is off Hall Lane, Horsforth"
