Caffe Nero - Leeds Boar Lane in Leeds

First time in last night and had a great time! The staff are exuberant and full of life. Music was a good mixture (80,'s played). All in all a really canny place.

Damon and Oscar had great customer service and was a great atmosphere !

Night scenes are quite impressive.

Far too loud for an old bloke like me. The youth will love it.

Complete rip off. Service great, atmosphere great but the cocktails are just a cup of crushed ice. So I used to go here whenever I was in Leeds for the 241 cocktails and I went in on Saturday and was told by the bar staff they had updated their cocktail menu. Ordered 2 cocktails and she started by filling the glass half full with crushed ice, fair enough that's alright. Then made the cocktail and poured it in both glasses (to halfway). Then she filled the rest of the cups with more crushed ice. The drink was a couple of sips at most, ridiculous. Stupidly ordered 2 more but something different from the menu hoping it was just that drink, but nope, full glass of crushed ice. Complete rip off, won't go again.

Fantastic bar with good music, especially downstairs. Nice modern vibe and all that - Chloe and Kane absolutely took care of me and mates to a T. Wouldn't hesitate to come back again and again. 2024 edit - I'm reminded that the 5* review is well earned on yet another visit. The staff look after you and are extremely accommodating. Couldn't be happier with my visit. Going back in late 2024, it's as good as ever - no complaints about the service for even a second, even on a busy Saturday night.

Oscar made a great cocktail with great chat

Great cocktails and friendly staff ☺️ The host that showed us to our table was lovely and the bartender was very helpful, I wasn’t sure what to pick from the menu. I was recommended something I haven’t tried before and I was pleasantly surprised. Amazing place for a catch up with a friend, we even managed to get 2 for 1 cocktails. Would absolutely recommend🥰🥰

Good music, expensive drinks. Shame really. Could be great but poor experience. Door staff saw my wife and decided she was drunk. She wasn't. Would a guy have been treated the same? No. Sexist. Pure and simple. Custom lost.

Need to sort the security out… utter disgrace!

Chloe was fantastic. Thank you.

Never met a man more beautiful than Hayden, literal love of my life and I'd sacrifice everyone

I visited the venue on Monday, it was raining and gloomy outside but the staff made sure vibes inside were absolutely immaculate. We were served by Ivy, Damian and Sandra. They recommended drinks off the menu for us and we were very pleased with what we got! Will definitely be coming back! 10/10

so busy and exciting in here, can’t wait to visit again special shout-out to allan who’s just the best and i think i’m in love with him!!!

Great service , I went in on Monday with a group of friends we were served by the most beautiful bartenders Damian , ivy and Sandra we weren’t sure what to order but they recommended drinks off the menu that were so good ! I think the zombie is my new favourite cocktail . Goated bar.

absolutely adore this place - amazing venue, amazing tunes, amazing drinks and even more amazing staff, in particular one of the bartenders named Oscar. him and the other gentlemen serving at the downstairs bar took amazing care of us (two young girls on a night out on their own so you know how it gets!) Oscar was constantly checking in on us to make sure we're okay and enjoying ourselves while providing us with the absolute best cocktails we've ever had! his passion, flair and just genuine pleasantness really made our night - he's a real credit to the team and Be at One should be happy to have him on board :)

Nothing raises your spirits on a cold, lonely evening like walking into Be At One and seeing Oscar's bare chest dripping with sweat and melting ice. Excellent Mai Tai as well, served with his trademark cheeky smile and great chat. Will come again.

Really good environment, was served by Oscar and he went above and beyond for our group made us all feel welcome and make us some excellent drinks 🥳

Great cocktails, and Oscars service was excellent

Very welcoming, gived us time to choose our drinks, Hayden was very nice and recommended us drinks, very chatty, amazing atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Had a great evening out for some cocktails; both the atmosphere and service was brilliant (didn't have any food so can't rate).

One thing i had to say is, this place looks bigger than it looks from outside, I visited this place and it has also a basement which basically you can call it a club with great songs

Didn't have food, only drinks. Downstairs disco is Ace.

Not bad, music was a bit cheesy downstairs but overall not a bad place

100% Hayden is best staff there he recognised me and my partner and served us quick, makes the best cocktails and always has a smile and some good flair to his work

Hayden was lovely. His hair was almost as exquisite as his bar tending skill - definitely an employee to be cherished.

Best bar in Leeds! We're visiting Leeds for the first time this weekend and I found this place on trip advisor. Upstairs was a chiller vibe but the downstairs is a hidden club. We ended up getting the best cocktails that I've ever had thanks to Lea the bartender. She gave us some great recommendations and we ended up having a banana rum one. Definitely recommend coming here and I'll be back!

Banging night, banging drinks, big thanks to Lea for making the best old fashioned. We will be back again for more!

Great atmosphere, cocktails and music Great.

Had an awful experience at this be at one bar. Damien in particular was extremely rude the service was extremely poor and his attitude was not fit for any customer service role. After this we felt extremely uncomfortable and felt like we had to leave. Would recommend any other bar in Leeds City Centre other than here

Damien was extremely rude and judgemental and also mocked the way i spoke would never come in here again!!!

Damian was great, had a great time.

I had the pleasure of spending an evening at Be At One on Boar Lane in Leeds, and I must say that it was a unique experience. The venue is stylishly decorated, with a cozy atmosphere that is conducive to relaxation and fun. The music was well chosen, adding energy and fun to the whole evening. However, what really sets Be At One apart is the service. I had the opportunity to meet Damian, who works there, and I must say that his professionalism and commitment were top-notch. Damian is an extremely friendly and helpful employee who makes sure that every guest feels special. His knowledge of the menu and ability to recommend drinks was impressive. The evening at Be At One was unforgettable, thanks to the amazing atmosphere, excellent drinks and most of all thanks to Damian, who made us feel at home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great time and exceptional service in the heart of Leeds

Damian was a legend one of the best cocktails I have ever had !!

Had a brill cocktail outing at boar lane and amazing drinks from Damien!!!

Damian my good man Outstanding service 🫡

I'm delighted to write a glowing review for Damian. He is an exemplary leader who consistently demonstrates exceptional qualities. His ability to inspire and motivate the team is unparalleled. Damian possess an extraordinary ability to anticipate challenges and develop innovative solutions. His strategic thinking and problem-solving skills have been instrumental in achieving our team's goals. Beyond his professional accomplishments, Damian is a genuinely caring and supportive individual. He takes a personal interest in the professional growth of each team member, providing guidance and mentorship. I am truly fortunate to have Damian as my leader. His dedication, expertise, and positive attitude make a significant impact on our team's success. I wholeheartedly recommend Damian for any leadership position.

If you looking for some good time this is definitely the place to be! Banging cocktails and great vibes. Mint 241 and the sexiest biggest bartender you’ll ever meet. Damian you are a legend and I’m going to name my first child after you!

Today I got to experience the sexiest bartender in the whole universe. Damien you are amazing and your Cuban holidays are the best under the sun I wish you would take me for a Cuban holiday ;)

Drinks, vibes and sexy bartenders. Especially my most favourite super sexy, beautiful Damien. Love him so much, best drinks and best booty shakes!

Great cocktails from Damian! Peachy vibes was fab. Very good recommendations for my lactose and nut allergies.

Fantastic experience with so amazing crew, especially Damian! I'll be back for sure

I recently had the pleasure of being served by Damien at Be At One, and I can confidently say he is one of the best bartenders I've encountered! He had a warm and welcoming demeanour made me feel right at home. Damien’s extensive knowledge of cocktails was impressive, and he took the time to recommend drinks based on what I like! Beyond his bartending skills, Damien's engaging personality made the atmosphere even more enjoyable. I left Be At One not only with a new favourite cocktail but also with a smile, thanks to Damien's exceptional service. Highly recommend stopping by and experiencing his talents firsthand!

Chloe is a great cocktail maker and kept me entertained the whole time I was in.

Went with a few Friends and met the lovly bartender Chloe and wow was gtreat service we got along with drink 10/10 would recomend.

Me Hayden Williams proclaim this place to be the best cocktail bar on this side of the island. Music, drinks and what’s most important the VIBES are single to none. Amongst all this stands one, the most excellent bartender Damien. He’s god of bartending gracing the earth, way he hold a bottle, flips em, pours them, lord almighty there’s no one better to witness behind the bar

Customer service was exceptional catered to our every needs. Only downside was baby changing unit was dirty. So maybe regular cleaning there. But I changed my baby elsewhere.

Great music, great service, great cocktails, great night

Excellent service made a few requests from up north which where humoured had a really good night, cocktails all went down a treat the barmans flair was appreciated really cool guy 👍

Amazing place that I recommend to anyone. Who enjoys good vibes. Great music and delicious cocktails. Kane is the best bartender! Helped me and the miss a lot by showing us 241 and walking us through the menu. Served us amazing tommys and showed us his flair routine!

Best bar in Leeds, great drinks, great service, great atmosphere🙏🙏 would highly recommend to any and all ages for a lovely night out

Had a great time and great drinks here. Even though it was busy the staff were still great and was helping me decide what to order. Can’t wait to come back again

Great cocktails, great price (especially at happy hour) and fantastic service.

I came in with some friends from work and what a night it was! We only meant to stay for one drink but we were still there when the lights came up! Slapping drinks, banging tunes, sick staff. We cant wait for our next night out!

Service was top notch Kane was top at served a great drink

Fantastic place for a night out or just casual cocktails with friends. Recomend to everyone that enjoys good tunes and is up for a boogie with a drink on 2-4-1 in hand! Absolutely love it here! If you come in ask for Lea she is an amazing bartender and who knows maybe she'll make you something special!

Welll..... special shout out to Alex and jacob from be at one boar lane yours went the extra mile Friday and Saturday yours gave us the be at one vibe we wanted 😀 we will definitely see yours again soon

Tall jacked European guy (maybe Damian) was great craic. Great service. Recommend the pearl diver!

I came last week with a couple of friends after going out for some food and it was excellent, this place truly made the night! The bartender Lea was a darling after we couldn't figure out what to choose ( the menu is very long). We ended up having some of the best cosmopolitans that I've had in Leeds so far and even a cocktail with a bubble on. She was so kind and patient with us and definitely knew her stuff. 5 stars for the place and 5 stars for her. We'll definitely be back!

Be at one boar lane it’s the best bar in Leeds by far you have great music,amazing staff and music and ABSOLUTELY banging cocktails to buy. So if your ever catch yourself on boar lane in Leeds City Centre visit be at one you won’t regret it!!! I’d also like to mention Jacob for it outstanding service and polite attitude towards the guests in the venue.

Best place in Leeds.... good atmosphere

Absolutely disgusting that they give you doubles when ordering spirits and don’t telll you £11.85 for a rum and coke!!!

Fantastic atmosphere, came with a group of friends and found the staff dancing on the bar and throwing ice. Even when this was happening we still got served. Loved every minute of it and will be definitely going back.

It's a little expensive for drinks

Leaving a review as you haven’t had the decency to get back to me or apologise 😂 which is another Joke in itself. I booked my HEN NIGHT with yourselves and booked tables. Firstly when we arrived there we no tables booked 🙄 luckily I found two empty downstairs in the corner, ordered a round of drinks and pulled out my hen decor (which you said I could bring) photo sticks, Willy whistles, Willy straws, bride glasses, cups etc we drank and danced for an hour and went to use the bathroom and to take a group photo in the big bathroom mirror, when we got back to our table You had thrown all of my hen decor and bits in the bin 😡 we shouted over a male bar staff and was ignored so I pulled the door staff walking past and just received an apology as it had gone in the bin! You absolutely RUINED MY HEN NIGHT and when I emailed yourselves the next morning you didn’t even have the Decency to reply. Absolutely unacceptable and unbelievable be at one I will not be returning ever again and will be telling others to do the same

The best cocktails, great atmosphere

Love this bar. They serve the best cocktails in Leeds! The music is great, a really good mix to suit all tastes; really nice bars - both upstairs and downstairs; the staff are all really friendly and extremely knowledgeable (regarding drinks, haven't tested their general knowledge 😁). Highly recommend a visit!

I loved my first time at this bar, Kane had amazing experience and technicality at pouring as well as great customer service! I loved that afterward, I got to speak to both Oscar and Ivy who were just as amazing! They had the best customer service and made us feel like vip guests! Overall great experience! I will be back!

Chloe is such a great bartender, she really looked after me and my partner and made sure that we were enjoying the music as well as recommending drinks that were right for us. It is now my mission to complete the menu. I will return everytime I’m in Leeds now for Chloe as she made us fall in love with this delightful bar! We spent more hours than we planed on her due to her amazing service

Be at One Bar is hands down one of the best places to head to for a night or day in Leeds city centre. My go to location is easily Boar lane any day. Ivy always brings an immaculate experience to the venue with superb service and energy.

Great atmosphere!! Our cocktails were amazing, we were served by Ivy at the bar who was super welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing night out, the bar staff are brilliant. Really good cocktails

excellent service, chloe and jian were the sweetest people ever and helped me explore drinks and told me names of stuff and everything!!! 1000% recommend and meet them

This is a fantastic bar, easily one of the best nights out I’ve had in Leeds in so long. Our bartender Ivy was fantastic, very friendly and knowledgeable and the drinks were amazing. I’ll def Be back soon

Always good vibes here! Staff are wonderful and the drinks are great. Ivy always goes out of her way to make sure we’re having a good time and is an absolute sweetheart! Absolute legend xo

Great bar would recommend a visit

Visited Wednesday night, fairly quiet night, nice chilled atmosphere. Ivy served me, absolute star, always happy and remembers my drink each time. 100% deserves a raise!

ivy was amazing during our visit! she recommended some cocktails from the book and they were perfect. we loved the blue one! we will be back! atmosphere was spot on and all staff were lovely aswell! highly recommend

Me and my girlfriend love coming into Be at One, Ivy always gives us a brilliant service. We've made our way through the entire rum menu with her suggestions, planning to move on to Whiskey so we'll be consulting her even more. Ivy always our remembers our faces and really makes us feel welcome.

Ivy was the best. She was so professional and friendly, gave us an off the menu cocktails. Highly recommend xx

Honestly, Ivy, one of the bartenders, is the best. She was able to do a limoncello spritz for us that wasn't on the menu. She was so friendly and so welcoming, would honestly recommend her and the bar to visit in Leeds xx

Absolutely love coming into here, great place for dates/with friends. Great drink selection and always great suggestions and service from staff, especially Ivy who always has a laugh with us and makes us feel welcome. Love the vast range of music played as well and always something entertaining going on.

Such a great vibe! Ivy was amazing and made such good cocktails , deffo recommend

Came in for a couple of beers after work and had a great time, Alan and Damian were amazing, 10/10 would recommend

Amazing atmosphere fun staff and great vibe. One of my favourite place to be on Saturday night out

Good service and fun time to be had

The service I receive from Alex and Kane is always top tier. Its a lovely establishment, the drinks are always good and the atmosphere is exactly the vibe you're looking for to unwind. The music is always fire, I always leave with my voice a little hoarse. I cannot recommend them enough. If you're looking for fun place to be on a Friday/Saturday or a bit moee chilled vibes on a Sunday, Be At One - Boar Lane will show you a good time. 🔥 👌🏽.

Absolutely buzzing place a must for a day out drinks

We went there to have coffee/tea and cake. I had cappuccino regular (£3.50) and my husband ordered breakfast tea (£2.65). My cake - chocolate and pistachio mouse (£3.95) was very good but my husband's cappuccino cake (£3.50) was a bid dry. We had pleasant view at the opposite Bourse. Toilette was clean.

Absolutely horrendous place, and they are pretty much spiking women! We went on Saturday for my birthday and we ordered drinks. Upon paying nearly £10 for one drink, we asked why it was so expensive. We were told, "It is policy, and we charge and give doubles unless you specifically ask for a single." Therefore, if you were driving and you were only having 1 drink, you could be over the limit and not realise. Young women, such as students especially buying drinks, think their singles when, in fact, they are getting drunk far faster and then more vulnerable. We complained, and the manager was rude and refused to refund. The place is full of negative atmosphere, people picking fights and wanting drama. The number of women also being pressured by males was awful, and I would recommend taking your service elsewhere. What they are doing with drinks should be illegal, and miss selling customers is not OK!

Really fun vibe to the place! Was the last stop on a night out and it was the best end to the night! Aaliyah was amazing and super friendly and they all seemed like they genuinely wanted to be there! Will definitely be going back for the next one!

The greeting at the door is professional, the quality of music is spot on and the service was quick and polite. The employees (Aaliyah) enjoy themselves and entertain as they serve. They put on a great show. The drinks selection is varied and even have plenty of non alcoholic drinks on the menu.

Absolutely amazing place! I went in last weekend after my neyo concert and really loved the atmosphere. I don’t drink alcohol anymore but absolutely loved how many non alcoholic cocktails there were and really made my night. The bartender Aaliyah was such a joy to watch, as well as really going the extra mile in recommending which drink I should have as I was worried there wouldn’t be any non alcoholic options on the menu but there were plenty! Thank you for a great night!

I absolutely love going to Be At One because it’s always a vibe no matter what! The range of cocktails are amazing , as well as the entertainment from the bar staff ! I have been served by Aaliyah countless times, and I am always so impressed at how quick and efficient she is at making multiple cocktails , not to mention her bubbly, positive and enthusiastic personality ! She always knows what cocktails to recommend if you fancy trying something new. I will always swing by when in Leeds 🥰

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't recommend this bar enough! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. The bartenders, especially Aaliyah, are absolute rockstars! The variety of drinks on the menu ensures there's something for everyone, from classic cocktails to unique concoctions. The ambiance is cozy yet vibrant, perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a night out. Whether you're a cocktail expert or just looking for a great place to unwind, this bar is definitely worth a visit. A five-star experience all around!

Went for some afternoon drinks with friends, ended up on the very well made cocktails which were on offer at the time. They were really nice. By 17:00 the place was like it was peak 23:00, nightclub vibes. It was full of people, DJ was on form and everyone was having a great time, no troubles, really really good atmosphere!

Quite expensive but good atmosphere.

Great bar, awesome atmosphere, friendly bar tenders

I must admit I cannot remember the last hour of being in here. Someone kept ordering tequilas.

I came into your Nero about 17:30 pm on Saturday 24th February. There is obviously no management presence. Baristas on their phone, colouring in coffee beans with a felt tip and just literally stood there whilst another colleague was rushing around, sweeping, filling up, returning with washed glasses (thin girl with red hair). One Barista ran outside to catch a balloon and proceded to chase the balloon around the store, she literally wrapped some birthday balloon around her head whilst another took pictures. Just such random behaviour, it was so cringe and made my visit really uncomfortable. I think there needs to be a standard of behaviour. No other Nero stores carry on like this so why should this one. Disappointing visit.
