Grill pub in Leeds

“Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Nice range of freshly prepared food on offer. Onion rings were deliciously crunchy, chonky chips were perfect.”

“April 2025 update - new landlords look like they have a plan ... which sound great. Early days but she is crystal clear and the staff are great. March 2024 update - still pretty darn good. Dec 2023 and new management. 1st visit was a big success. Ales were kept perfectly and all staff very friendly. High hopes going forward. Glad to see it both open and busy.”

“Delicious Sunday lunch cooked by Calvin, with plenty of meat plus lovely desserts. Waitress Laura checked all our dietary needs and was lovely. Thanks guys!”

“We have returned to the Devon after a bad experience in the past due to a booking issue. We thought we would give the place a 2nd chance. The devon and its team did not disappoint. a total of 15 of us. Ben and Kasha did a great job of being attentive to our party despite the pub being extremely busy, they couldnt do enough for us. Food didnt come out all together but we did put this down to us all ordering seperate and at different times, still food was lovely. Great atmosphere and great quiz. we will recommend and book again soon”

“Called here this aft’ with a party of 10 for works Xmas drinks, the atmosphere of this little gem of a pub is fantastic, I spoke to Siobhon having a chat about the establishment and feeling like a proper venue, everything about this from the bar staff, location was simply amazing, we left after 3 hours but decided to call back in after we were ready to call it a night, great experience.”

“This was a lovely pub for drinking, with a bright interior and old fashioned layout! The intervals between different sections create this and clock in the middle is a classic, as is the model lifebuoy. Counter is well presented and I enjoyed a pint of Cruzcampo, sitting at leather seating by a clean table!”

“Great little Bar in Wakefield, great for live music and ger togethers with friends. Nice Meals upstairs also & great beer.”

“Absolute great night here especially when they have a band on.”

“What an amazing Sunday lunch we both had the lamb dinner it was cooked to perfection looked wonderful with a lovely garnish to top it off. The service was second to none. Thank you the red kite and all your team. We will definitely be back”

“What a fantastic pub that I'm lucky to share a name with!”

“Lovely quaint little pub sat by the edge of the river is a beautiful spot for a bite to eat. Mark the bar man is very welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere serene. Two cosy dining rooms perfect for a romantic dinner.”

“Ideally located for our trip, all of the staff we met were extremely friendly from the cleaners to the reception and bar staff, they really were very helpful with any needs we had. The leisure facilities were top notch and very clean. The hotel is a bit out from the town so we stayed around every evening which wasn't an issue as the food was excellent. Highly recommend a stay here and should my work bring me back that direction I will be staying there again.”

“Amazing experience at black house on Saturday night! I came to celebrate with my partner and I couldn’t have asked for a better server. Kitty our server was so attentive to our needs, gave us good advice on food options and what wines would be good to compliment the dishes with. She even went the extra mile and gave us a desert to celebrate together which was a lovely touch. We left with full stomach’s, indulging on the best steak and drinks.”

“Quite frustrating experience. I went there for food and I parked in the designated area. After a week I received parking ticket. I tried to call the administration of the restaurant but nobody responds the call. Now I have to pay additional charges for visiting that place. I won’t visit again.”

“Famed for their burgers, it was great to see they had a plant-powered menu with a large selection of options! Myself obviously going for the “Hey Hot Stuff” which was a @movingmountainsfoods patty, vegan cheese, jalapeños, roquito chillies, onion rings, spicy vegan mayo and the usual burger toppings. There’s a good selection of sides too, but what won it for me was the Vegan Duck Loaded Fries! Quacking with flavour, the ‘duck’ was succulent and tender! Smothered with juicy hoisin sauce and topped hoisin mayo, toasted sesame seeds, spring onions and red chillies. I would happily return here just to gutbash on the fries alone! And there’s few venues up and down the country, including London, Leeds and Manchester. Real messy but so worth it!”

“This place is the best. Amazing staff to customer Communication. Amazing music, great manager. World class venue”

“The best experience I’ve had in a while. The food was beautiful - no complaints. The service was excellent, staff were lovely. All my needs were met, you can tell it’s run by a team that cares about your experience there! Would highly recommend!”

“Came here for a Sunday roast and a catch up with friends (6 of us). Food, atmosphere and staff all great. Special shout out to lily for attentive and friendly service.”

“Booked a table for 26 of us last weekend and the pub garden was a great space for us. Service was amazing even with just two people on the bar and drinks and food were great. Couldn’t have asked for better from the staff.”

“Staff chatty, happy to tell about town history once is not to busy at bar if u being nosey. Happy to help you with a drink or food choice.”

“My sister & I came here recently for a quick lunch. We parked for free nearby and walked down to The Briggate. It doesn't look that big from the outside but I was surprised how large it was inside. We found a table then I went to the bar to place our order. I don't like using the App as I like to check out what ales they have on offer and I prefer to deal with human beings behind the bar. I ordered a fish & chips lunch with mushy peas and my sister went for a small ham & fried egg dish with chips. I had a pint of Ruddles Best which came with the price of the meal. Amazingly for the two of us the bill came in less that 18 quid. How's that for a bargain. All good!”

“Friendly local pub with plenty of entertainment and karaoke. The beer garden is great in summer and the crowd’s welcoming once you settle in.”

“Love this pub, food excellent staff excellent, nice place to have a function aswel”

“Lovely meal at olive tree. Friendly service with a warm welcome into a nicely decorated dining area.Special thanks to rumel and safa.. Busy on a saturday evening. We were a group of 6 peoples.We ordered starters and main both.. For the main, 3 of our party had the Steak and each opted for a different sauce option. I chose peppercorn and would recommend this. Steak was juicy and cooked well to a medium rare. Fries were thin and crispy. For dessert I had the Tiramisu . This was the best tiramisu. I tried. I also had a glass of the Merlot this was nice. The toilets were well decorated and flushed effectively. Everything was spot on.. Surely,Would definitely back again..”

“Just had our annual Christmas dinner and get together here for the first time and absolutely loved it xx portion sizes are huge, the food was served hot, no mean feat when serving 15 people and really delicious xx the staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble xx if you are looking for somewhere to eat, don't miss this xx”

“First started going in there, with my Dad many years past. & I still see some of his friends in here, So it's a comfort zone for sure!”

“Stop off on way back from emmerdal tour. Called in place was extremely busy but still managed to sit us down. Very fast service given how busy they were. Waitress fantastic and really friendly. Food really well priced. Can't fault the place. I'd definitely go back next time in the area. Given how busy it was and football was on I could not recommend this place enough for a quick bite to eat. Great place.”

“Great place for an open mic (upstairs), with an excellent sound system, room and lighting. Top notch acts too, clearly got some talented regulars. Nice staff.”

“Nice pub with plenty of parking and friendly staff. Pool table available and ample seating outside. I did not have food but saw a family eating and tge food look good and smelled lovely”

“Absolutely love this pub! Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, and a brilliant selection of drinks. The food was spot on—big portions, tasty, and came out quickly. Perfect place to relax with friends, and it always feels welcoming”
