Brew York in Leeds

Food & Beer were amazing as always. Had the Duck Donburi which was packed with so much meat.

We love coming to Brew York when we visit York. Great for a low-key casual lunch with a couple of half pints and it's always interesting to see who the resident kitchen are. This time it was Yuzu street food which does pan-asian fusion stuff. Perfect for sharing and a really good selection such that we couldn't decide what to try! However we went for salt + pepper fries, sticky plum fried chicken strips, and veg/chicken gyoza. All totally yummy but I highly recommend the S+P fries. Staff are always really nice in Brew York and happy to chat about the selection of beers on offer. Will definitely continue to come here especially as they now have a beer garden at the side!

Another fantastic Brew York venue on the outskirts of Leeds City centre.Usual Brew York craft ales and guest beers. Pan- Asian street food available.

Disappointing. I recently visited Brew York Leeds yesterday around 6pm and wanted to share my feedback. As a recovering alcolholic, I was keen on exploring their alcohol-free options. Unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired. When I inquired about alcohol-free choices, the bartender provided only two beer options. I couldn't have these due to a gluten intolerance so asked of there was anything else and was told "fizzy pop". What bothered me most was the bartender's dismissive tone. I was told, "It's simple," as he implied I was confused or not intelligent enough to understand the offering. Feeling mocked and not taken seriously is never a good experience for a customer. It became evident that the bartender wasn't well-informed about the menu after my boyfriend noticed an alcohol-free gin, which the bartender had overlooked. It's essential for staff to be aware of all available options. I recommend that Brew York invest in better training for their staff. Understanding dietary restrictions and showing empathy toward customers is crucial.

Great selection of beers etc. Not the cheapest but what I tried was really nice. Liked the music as it was a bit funky. Did not eat their but looked tasty (mainly Chinese)

Great place with great beer. The food is gorgeous and good value

Loved the fact they were showing the rugby and the rhubarbra Streisand extra custard was epic

Food is really good, beer is fine, but it's really cold and music is very loud. We asked multiple times if they can turn it down a little so that people can hear each other, but the staff ignored that. If you want to eat and drink, this is a good place. If you want to have a conversation at a table, go elsewhere.

Happy to report this place is back to it's glory. Staff are great; really friendly and rapid quick. The addition of a fridge for sit in/takeaway beers is great. Tables are clean and the beer is still just as good at very reasonable prices. Came in on a Saturday in the early evening and the vibe is back!

Amazing. Hope u guys are up and running soon!

Love this place! I tried two beers and I want to come back for more. They sell in 1/3 1/2 and 2/3 pints so you can try many. The food was amazing and really good value. Great atmosphere and friendly staff

Good food and plenty of variety of beers

A bit of an odd smell from toilets but nice food and drink.

Beer is out of this world but nobody can afford it, buy it from morrisons if you want some.

Love coming here but for some reason it always has a bit of a dive bar vibe. I se that as a good thing but it probably means it won't hang around too long as it's never busy. However the food and beer are great. The beer costs about half the price of some of the bars within a few minutes walk and tastes better. Plus the music is good and at a volume you can still talk over. Come here so it doesn't close down!!

Food good as always from yuzu not brew york No quiz as advertised and no atmosphere, just felt as if it should be shut. Such a shame

Friendly but not as good as good as Brew York in York, rating compared to my experience of Brewyork in York, toilets not in service, not that busy, completely different.

Great street food and obviously, great beer. Shabby chic vibe works well, very chilled.

Very decent range of beers available. I had the Ghost IPA. It was above average. This is on the will visit again list next time in Leeds.

As a great fan of Brew York beers I was a little underwhelmed. Absolutely nothing wrong with the place, hence the 3 stars, but would have liked bigger range of beers and more enthusiastic staff.

Good Food, Belting Beer, all the core and seasonal beers from Brew York

Glorious selection of brew York beers with some guest beers on tap also

Nice bar with great selection of beers 🍻

Calmer Chameleon is one of my favourites. York the better venue.

The Leeds venue lets BrewYork down. Been several times, always dirty glasses. Bar staff look miserable. Sadly won’t come back here. Update: manager denies (which seems to be a constant theme) this happening if you see other honest reviews! Adding an image of our dirty glass cropped closely as our little boy is in the image. Though, can provide full image if required. This is the second glass given to him as the first had lipstick on! Disgusting. Absolutely won’t be back to any Brew York’s now. The beers are gorgeous but your lack of attention to customer service here let’s you down. Perhaps the owners need better hygiene standards if they are comfortable with this. Yuzu are the only good thing about this place and luckily, you can find them elsewhere. Looking back, it seems dirty glasses/ dirty toilets/ general lack of cleanliness is an issue - yet, instead of actually tackling the issue here you are constantly denying it. The people of Leeds and surrounding areas are not blind. It’s insulting!

Brilliant selection of beer and Asian food and amazing bar staff

Great selection of beers and tasty Korean street food

Varied bar selection and good ale choices.

Great selection of beers and DELICIOUS food

Only one real ale on but absolutely fabulous

Wonderful friendly staff, great food and beer, board games and more. What’s not to like? Thank you 😊🐯

Great beer, great atmosphere and the food is fantastic.

Good beer choice and decent venue

Great selection of craft beers that really hit the spot and amazing Japanese street food. The bao buns are so moreish and I highly recommend the tonkatsu rum.

This is always our 1st stop when popping into Leeds . Love the range of craft beers for my hubby . I'm a sour drinker & they always have some for me . Lovely chilling vibe .

great staff, we had a really nice time here, the beer was good also!

Great pub, loads of choice. Love it!

Great pub, little quiet but a great range of in house beers

Too much of a cafe vibe for my liking. Decent beers. Not My favourite bar in Leeds . But worth a look if you're passing.

Good selection of beers, but we were extremely let down by how dirty the toilets were! It was a quiet weekday night, so no excuse at all. Unacceptable and won’t be returning sadly.

Loving the venue in York, I may have built this one up too much in my head - it seemed a bit small, but it was still pretty empty (we did go on a Wednesday). The beer was great as always but the ambiance lacked and the food was... fine. Neither here nor there really.

Good prices. Lovely staff and a lovely selection of beers.

Lovely bar, lovely staff, great selection of beer and the food was incredible

Great beer! Well worth a visit!

Meaning to come here for while. Big disappointment. No cask ales! Because “nobody drinks them”. Sitting here with no drink while my partner finishes hers.

We went today and found this place and the it was so busy- but a good vibe. The bartender (Emma) on today was amazing- so welcoming and the cocktails were made fast & was lovely, despite it being heaving. The food was also on par with the drinks with generous portions, couldn’t ask for anything more. Overall, the whole atmosphere was better than anticipated and would definitely recommend to anyone, will definitely be visiting again soon!! 10/10.

good beer selection odd decor and the pump clips looked really light damaged. it was also dead on a Friday night at 10 which isn't great

Had just opened for trade when we visited. Ice machine was broken, so no cocktails available 😥. Tried cider instead; very pleasant. Would recommend this place if you like craft beer. Food not available till 5pm.

Same as the york one. Amazing. Don't go to brewdrog over the road where they screw everyone

Good range of beers. Food looked good although I wasn’t eating on this occasion

Great selection of IPA’s, food was to die for, best meal I have had in Leeds, staff helpful and friendly, thanks again 😋😋

Good beers nice staff recommended

Excellent night here, one of the best craft bars in the country, Tucker is a great member of staff , top customer service from him

Great beer selection and wonderful food from Yuzu. Seems quiter than it should be for the quality... A hidden gem perhaps.

This is a bit of a hidden gem. The food is amazing, I had bao buns and the sriracha fries were one of the best I've had! Beers are great too, this is my second visit this week! Give it a go!

Awful service. Very disappointed.

Bit disappointed as felt like i was in a works canteen...however was told by staff that it was being renovated....prices quite steep ...

Snubbed by the bartender. The staff looked displeased by our custom. Wouldn't come again due to the poor hospitality.

Great beers but it lacks a bit of atmosphere

Amazing beer and the staff member we had was brilliant. Sadly the cleanliness was an issue for us, clearly not been touched in weeks!

big fan of Brew York beers. Top variety on tap and cans from range. Food is A+ Nice staff. Chilled

Got the Brew York range here of course, but the big screen doesn't fully show what's on tap - I had to ask "what's dark on" and they had York-E but there's no "dark" section on the screen. Brew York are renowned for their dark beers which is why I'm here. First rule of any craft beer bar is to show on a board/screen what is on (Wayne/Lee take note ;-). Slightly pricy at £5.60 (after my 15% gold badge discount) and it took the barmaid about 3 minutes of faffing with two tablets to process the order in a near empty bar. Not sure how she'd cope when busy! Maybe there aren't too many gold badge punters...

Chilled bar. Not sure about the rhubarb beer but the plain one was nice.

Fantastic service and the food was gorgeous.

Yeeees finally somewhere that serves a variety of delicious stouts! Been craving these all winter so glad we spotted this tap room. The ambience is cosy and warm and the food looked delicious. If we hadn't already eaten we'd definitely have ordered. Returning soon for sure - highly recommend.

Popped in for a beer with a friend who loves the place and I had a great time, bar staff friendly and really enjoyed the Kirsch Russell will be back next time I'm in Leeds

Lovely IPA bar - plenty of space and great choice of beers- cool personable bar.

Great bar for a big range of Brew York beers

Loved Brew Yorks beers for a while and it was great to go to their pub. The staff were fantastic and being able to have the beers on rap was fantastic.

Nice place, choice of proper beers, lovely bar staff. It's a pity I wasn't hungry, the menu looks good!

Superb range of craft beers. Friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Brew York bar selling Brew York beer, what more do you need. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

Love their beers. Love the staff at this place too. This is a must visit when in Leeds. Plus, I learnt the joint owner is also called Wayne!

Good choice of beers but unfortunately many unavailable. Freezing inside due to doors being open but I guess that's a consequence of Covid-19. Staff were brilliant hence 4*

Such a lovely little bar, staff dealt with a difficult customer when we were there really well!

Amazing selection of delicious drinks and the staff are the best!

Nice place. Really expensive. 2.40 for a half pint. No WiFi. Card only, no cash

What not to like st this railway tap house. Friendly service and well kept beers, plenty of space.

Very friendly staff , excellent selection of beers and yummy food , can't go wrong visiting .

The beer is a bit more interesting than your average pub, while keeping very reasonable prices. The food wasn't amazing, but it was a very enjoyable mix (contemporary Asian and craft beer).

Oh my! Some of the best ales I've ever tried. Lovely knowledgeable staff, not the cheapest but worth the money.

The bar has a really friendly and relaxed atmosphere and has a wide range of Brew York beers available on draught and cask. The Korean street food is excellent too.

Got a weird vibe. I feel like it couldn't decide if it was a restaurant or a pub with the condiments always on the table. Plus the toilets were not well layed out, have to wait or walk into people to get to the sink or urinal. Apart from that, the beer selection was fantastic and tasty. Can't speak for the food as I didn't get any. However, when I saw it get delivered to other people it did look tasty and generous portions. Would still recommend going!

Nice addition to the Leeds bar scene. Popular with younger people (everyone looks like they're in a band), possibly attracted to the crazy range of "craft" ales. Has 3 hand-pulled beers on for us old folk! The food looked interesting although we didn't eat. Sadly, being 'Street food', this seems to entitle them to serve everying in polystyrene and the like which I assume just gets thrown away: not good.

Yuzu duck fries, mmmmmm Salted caramel imperial Tonkoko, mmmmm

Great food and drink, helpful staff who know their beers, any issues I had were dealt with impeccably. Can’t wait to come again

The beers brew York produce are great both pun wise and flavour wise. This is great bar....the food selection is fantastic as well. This is a little haven for craft lovers and foodies. Well worth a visit....you need to try the juice Forsyth!

We went in the day and found we had the bar to ourselves for the most part. The selection of beers is fantastic and the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. You can get smaller measures of the stronger beers if you don't want a pint. Have yet to try the food there but have heard (and smelt!) great stuff!

A fairly disappointing experience overall. We has a table booked 3pm - 5pm on Saturday and arrived pretty much bang on 3. We were "welcomed" by a chap who didn't really seem like he wanted to be there and introduced to the phone based ordering system. We ended up on an odd table with the bench seat a good bit higher than the chairs on the other side of the table and quickly noted that the acoustics were awful. One table of fairly vocal revellers overwhelmed the place with a cacophony of noise that meant everyone else had to compound the issue by talking louder in order to be heard. Some acoustic panelling or soft furnishing would be a great addition. The ordering system is basic and somewhat laborious, you have to enter payment details each time you use it, given how quiet it was table service surely couldn't have been that hard to manage. It felt like an app for the sake of it rather than a welcome addition. I realise places have had to adapt but this was clunky and frustrating to use and didn't even work on one of our (bang up to date) Android devices. Drinks were fine, the usual interesting stuff. As we came to 4:30pm we were about to order a last drink only to be approached and told our table was needed at 4:45pm. Our emailed confirmation said otherwise but we just left and went to The Brunswick for a much nicer experience all round. I'll stick to buying their beers elsewhere rather than in-house.

Great bar /pub with an excellent choice of cask and keg beers, lovely street food too courtesy of @yuzu_streetfood.

Tasty food and an interesting variety of drinks

Something went wrong when they put this together, the beer is good because it's from Brew York but the interior could use work.

A really nice small pub. Loads of great beers

Really enjoyed the atmosphere in here, the staff were all great, were very friendly and provided an excellent service. The place was clean and well organised...recommend trying the 'Duck Sauce' had one and didn't switch to another drink.

Really nice food huge variety of all types of food and brilliant service

Great beer and food, welcoming staff, will be back.
