Best & Cool Bars in Holmewood

"The plant-covered roof terrace at East 59th is blessed with incredible south-facing views that look out over the city’s skyline, but don’t worry about moving inside when the temperature drops – they have heat lamps and blankets to keep you warm until closing time. It’s known for its extensive cocktail menu, so get ready for classic concoctions and experimental creations."

"Sitting at the top of beautiful shopping destination Victoria Gate, is East 59th rooftop restaurant, bar and terrace. Oozing laid back Manhattan style, East 59th offers contemporary dining and cocktails. The outdoor terrace is a little haven in the city, surrounded by greenery, wooden furniture and decking."

"East 59th is a New York-style loft with a sun-soaked roof terrace. It’s carpeted in astroturf, covered in leafy plants and decked out in stylish wicker furniture. Settle down in this urban jungle, under the shade of the massive parasols to grab a few drinks."

"What: The sixth floor of Leeds' Trinity Centre might not be where you would expect to find a brilliant brunch, but D&D's Angelica serves exactly that. This isn't the place to go if you're looking for a slap-up brunch as this is very much a stylish restaurant rather than a casual café. However, if you are in the market for something a little bit classy, Angelica's menu features everything from a crayfish and brown butter crumpet to buttermilk banoffee pancakes.Where: Level 6, Trinity Centre, 70 Boar Lane, LS1 6HW"

"Angelica has the highest rooftop bar in Trinity Leeds, and the views across the city are absolutely incredible. See alsoA Movie Lover's Guide to the West Midlands. The terrace is super Instagrammable, too, as it’s decorated with trees, lavender and shrubbery."

"Steak and chips for £5 is the signature special of this multi-space eatery–a mix of food space, beer hall, gig location and sceney rooftop–where fluffy pals are not just welcomed, but are often rewarded with a starring role on Headrow’s Instagram page. The action happens over four floors, in what was previously a textile mill. Standout features include the beer hall’s collection of four tanks of unpasteurised Pilsner and 60 international beers, plus the upstairs terraces–where you can while away a relaxed evening, and your dog has space for a leg stretch when it needs it (also known as flashing puppy eyes at other people to attract more cuddles)."

"When it comes to alfresco dining and sunshine drinks, the team behind Headrow House, Belgrave, et al, have most definitely raised the bar, quite literally. Their rooftop ‘beer garden’ is one of the go-to destinations when the sun makes an appearance. With a stellar selection of craft beers and cocktails together with 2020’s foodie revelation ‘Spitz Kebabs’ from Ox Club."

"And luckily for you, it has not just one, but two, of the best rooftop gardens too!. Headrow is set in a converted textile mill and is popular among the locals for its great food and drink, as well as for the variety of bars within it. You absolutely need to add it to your weekend in Leeds itinerary if you’re visiting from afar!"

"Water Lane Boathouse sits on the banks of the Leeds Liverpool Canal with cracking views over the water. It comes from the team behind Headrow House and Belgrave and it’s cool-as-heck, with original brickwork and minimalist decor. Take a pew in their amazing outdoor area, where you can sit and enjoy one of their many craft beers and artisan gins overlooking the water."

"A stone’s throw away from Granary Wharf, Water Lane Boathouse overlooks Leeds canal and is a great place to visit on a sunny day. They have a spacious water-facing patio, as well as seating inside and upstairs, meaning you’ll never feel too crowded."

"The ultimate alfresco spot, Water Lane Boathouse boasts stunning views of Leeds' Canal Wharf, as well as a mouthwatering menu. Take a window seat or perch on one of the outdoor benches to watch the world float by as you chow down."

"A quirky pub nestled behind Kirkgate Market, Crowd of Favours has everything you need to keep your brood entertained. The traditional board games are ideal for a family face-off. It’s a popular choice (with both little and big kids alike), especially when they have their film nights, which range from Lord of the Rings to Harry Potter."

"European Street Food award winner Ranie Sirah is the brains behind Jah Jyot and he’s mastered the art of Punjabi street food. Their speciality is the Masala Dosa, a rice flour and spinach pancake smothered in masala sauce and filled with your pick of spiced aloo, paneer and chicken. That’s not all – you can expect a rotating line-up of curries, like Amritsar Chicken, Aloo Bhaingan and Chole Masala, or get one of their Thali plates, which will get you a taster of three, with rice, a naan and samosas."

"This relatively new kid on the block is a go-to date spot in my books - the long sharing tables offering a kind of informality that’s welcome when you’re trying to remember to listen, ask questions, not swear too much and play with your ear lobes if you’re interested. With 50 beers on tap, a secret gin hideaway, indie coffee, and all the street food you could wish for, you literally can’t go wrong, any time of day or night. Assembly Underground, 12 Great George St, Leeds LS1 3AL"

"Take the family to the former Tetley brewery in Leeds, which is now home to an art gallery, a whole heap of children’s events and a very family-friendly restaurant. You can stop off for a quick drink after your culture vulture-ing or take your time with a proper sit-down. Their dedicated children’s menu, which doubles as a colouring sheet, offers brunch options like brioche eggy bread until midday, and thereafter it’s all about mains like cheese sarnies or crispy chicken with coleslaw."

"Founded in 1822, Tetley was once the biggest brewery in the North, and for a while, it was the largest producer of cask ale in the world. Its reign ended when the brewery was taken over by the Carlsberg Group, and the brewery closed in 2011, before being demolished a year later. Thankfully, out of its ashes, a new venue was born."

"The Oakwell Stadium is quite big, some of the equipment is outdated, but the lawn maintenance is still possible. Generally speaking, it is more recommended~ It is very suitable to watch the game and is recommended!"
