The 10 Best Contemporary Art Galleries In Leeds
"Born and bred in Yorkshire, Henry Moore is one of the most revered sculptors of our time. Moore has left his legacy all around the world in the form of his iconic bronze statues, which can be found on the moors of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, all the way to the heart of Hong Kong’s Central District. Having been a long-standing advocate for accessible public art, the Henry Moore Institute was established by the man himself more than 30 years ago as a centre for the celebration and appreciation of visual arts."

The 10 Best Contemporary Art Galleries In Leeds
"In a city with the biggest student population outside of London, it would be absurd for the prevailing university culture not to have some influence on the art scene. Housed within the University of Leeds campus in the Grade II listed Art Deco Parkinson Building, The Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery showcases a mix of contemporary art as well as works from the university’s special collections department spanning over 200 years. The gallery expectedly supports and promotes its students’ and its graduates’ work, in addition to displays from local artists and those from further afield."

The Best Cafes in Leeds
"Arch Cafe is run by Age UK Leeds, a charity that helps older people in the community, and all the proceeds are ploughed back into their great work. That means your cuppa, or your coffee if you prefer, comes with added feel-good. You can tuck into everything from cheesy omelettes to goats cheese ciabattas, but the stars of the show are their incredible homemade cakes which change daily – will it be a traditional Victoria sponge, a slice of lemon drizzle or a brownie?"

"This much-beloved watering hole is the sister bar to one of Leeds’ oldest pub, Whitelocks. Whilst the former is the place to head for the more classic ales, Turks Head is the more modern choice, with a plethora of interesting craft ales, gins, and cocktails. The beer garden which sits in the alleyway just off Briggate is lively and atmospheric all year round, with plenty of seating, and canopies with heaters for those unpredictable British summer days."
