Alley Cats in Leeds

Having recently been acquired by North, who usually start from scratch, I assume Alley Cats is currently still in transition. They have North Bar beers, but a thin selection of spirits, and the decor is as before. When we visited last night, the barman was so drunk, he was staggering about all over the place, glass in hand, unable to properly pour a pint, and talking the sort of ridiculous drivel that only makes sense to the severely inebriated. It's a very small bar, and he turned into something of a 'turn', though not very enjoyable to watch, as he tripped about the place, even losing his phone at one point. It's card only, so I need to check how much the idiot charged me! One pint was definitely enough, but hopefully North can do something with the place.

I had the double cheeseburger and having eaten many a burger across many different restaurants over the last 30 years, I can say with some confidence that it was one of the best I have ever had. Everything about it was bang on the money. In addition the fries were amazing as well as they were actually crispy! Too many times soft fries seem to be order of the day but not here. There were some amazing burgers on their menu and I will definitely be back. Top tier burger!!!!

The staff refused to speak with me, i was polite but they acted like i was not there. I asked why when i order from their menu there was no chips with my burger, they acted like i was dirt. i spent £25 on a burger and frigles no chips and was made to feel like i was a bad person, rude and excorticate. the menu is misleading the staff are rude

Terrible service and awful environment. Plenty of other good venues in the area don’t trouble yourself with this one.

Just enjoying a lush breakfast in an authentic type American bar and grill. Amazing service and great atmosphere! Very reasonable prices, with refillable filter coffee for £2- bargain Definately will be back. Thanks Kay had a great time

Very friendly establishment. I had the Brekie Sarnie for £7 and refillable coffee. Well worth the money. There was a fairly large group of us but service was still good. I highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing food, brilliant service, can’t complain about anything , price quality and service were bang on

After being in with my partner I brought my parents in here for some food a and quick drink. The staff were so friendly and the food was amazing. Also an 11/10 choice of music. This is a must visit for anyone in the leeds area. They have so many cool events on and brilliant deals. I personally wouldn’t want to miss out on such a brilliant venue.

While at the Northern Monk beer festival I purchased 2 burgers, what a disappointment. Both very extremely salty and inedible. When I returned to complain I was told to go away as there was a queue forming behind me. I wasn't offered a replacement or refund. Most of the items on the menu were missing, so there I was a limited to what i could choose.

Just the most wonderful place to go . I always looked and thought maybe not for me but please dont judge a book by its cover .A most wonderful unique bar and hub of total joy . Pink gin has a new lease of life under their stewardship !! Delicious and oh so grown up guided beautifully by Chris and food that is to be honest "the tits "home made joy that is so special you cant buy even the tiniest bit of it . Who makes grenadine well alley cats do and a superb tequila sunrise to boot.the food Is unpretentious but perfect and the vibe in whole place is the same . DO NOT MISS THIS GOBBLE OF GORGEOUSNESS X

The staff are attentive and certainly add to the welcoming musical vibe. Prices are fair and although the place isn’t big or plush, it really works.

First went here a few weeks ago as we’re new to the area and immediately knew this was our kind of place. The staff are really sound and super friendly, we even got our first round on the house to welcome us to the area which was such a nice touch. Walked past on a Saturday night and it looked lovely. Went in again today and had some of the tastiest wings (they weren’t shy with the portion sizes either) and when leaving we were given a shot of tequila for national margarita day! The atmosphere is always really nice and chilled and they greet you like old friends. Such a bloody gem of a spot.

Food is very naughty indeed, perfect for a lazy Sunday. Great beer and wine . Cool decor love this place. I feel another dirty burger day coming on soon 👍

The food is insane. The staff are great and the games consoles are great! Would highly recommend this for a family or friends night of food and drinks.

Only just managed to get round to reviewing but alley cats is one of my go to places in Chapel A and so happy to have a place like this just around the corner from me! The food is so so tasty and even better, when I asked, is all sourced locally, so supports even more businesses locally. The food has been getting better and better each time I go back. I especially love the halloumi toastie, falafel burger or nachos. The Frankenstein fries are also amazing and something a bit different from the standard loaded fries other places do. It's a shame this place hasn't been able to open up as much this year but when it is open, the ambience of the place is great! Pre-covid they had some great little music nights , so hopefully they will return again soon.

Due to Covvid, we had to order, so used Uber eats. Our order arrived completly incorrect, however, Alley Cats were fully aware the driver had delivered our order to someone else, however, still allowed for the driver deliver,the incorrect order to ourselves. Alley Cats did...

My husband and I can’t get enough of this place! Can’t wait for the end of lockdown 2.0 to pull up a bench and order a few pints, big kahuna burgers and freedom fries! Great staff, great atmosphere, amazing playlists and, I don’t say this...

The staff are very friendly and it’s a nice little place. They have an outside area with a little chiminea. I have to say though The burger is possibly the best burger I’ve ever had!!!

I love this place and it’s always been great for a good dirty burger, however I’ve just had my first takeaway since lockdown from here any it was extremely disappointing. The burger was pretty much uncooked in parts (and I wasn’t asked this time if...

Good burgers, good music and a good atmosphere. A little on the pricey side (£35 for two burgers with a side of fries and two pints). Worth it though.

We normally pop in for a few drinks now and again. But tonight we went along and had a couple of burgers. They were brilliant. Really tasty and huge portions! Really surprised at the standard, it’s up there with the best burgers in Leeds Brilliant...

Great little bar in chapel a. Went down with the family and dog. Played a game of Klask which was great fun. Had an espresso martini which was nice. Quite small but good fun for a few of you!

Came in the other day, hung over and had a Kahuna burger with cheesecake for dessert. My partner had Hickey strips and chilli cheese fries. We felt Soooooo much better afterwards. Fancy cocktails, up-market single malts, craft beers... all abound

What a surprise,a lovely cosy little local bar.Called in for a couple of drinks tonight our first visit. The Alleycats pilsner at £4 a pint was very good. What I loved the most was the chilled out tunes being played at a volume where you...

We got a couple of parmos... And being from Boro it's always equal parts exciting and scary when our sacred dish appears outside of Teesside. The parmo was alright, but if you're looking for an authentic Boro parmo this isn't it... more like what you...

Brilliant little bar! Fab chilled northern soul music and memorabilia. Beat the Tetris score and win a sandwich! Excellent cocktails. Perfect for a low key chill on a Sunday afternoon.

Looks like a quirky bar from the outside but we went on the recommendation of some friends to eat there and were pleasantly surprised. Order your food at the bar - don’t sit and wait like we did. We had classic Mac n cheese £3.50...

This small bar on Harrogate Road, across the road from the Lidly supermarket, has been here for a while now. It has 4 keg lines, serves cocktails and spirits, and has a small fridge with some craft ales (probably a good idea to get a...

Walked past this so many times and cynically thought - that’ll be crap opposite Lidl car park - how wrong! The girl behind the bar was/is fab! Really enjoying her job, genuine, as opposed to fake friendliness. Service was great as she brought cocktails to...
