Parkside Tavern in Leeds

We recently hosted our company’s summer party at Parkside Tavern, and it was an absolute hit! From the moment we arrived, the staff, particuarly Tara and Sophie made us feel incredibly welcome and attended to our every need with a smile and enthusaism. The catering was top-notch, offering a delicious array of dishes that catered to all dietary preferences and the bar service was equally impressive, One of the highlights was the seamless organization and attention to detail. The event coordinators were professional and accommodating, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. You won't get better vaule for money for a private event anywhere else in Leeds.

Amazing staff and Absolutely great venue to host a private party! We booked a 30th birthday party in the upstairs function room, large and spacious with it's own bar which opens up onto a roof terrace which get the sun all day!! From the very start out host Sophie was very professional and so accommodating. Her bar staff Amy and Theo were excellent who we kept very busy on that bar! Between them they did an amazing job! The food was very good! And had lots of vegan and vegetarian options. We had a big speaker given to play our own music plus they kept the TVs on for the football fans. Everyone who came to the party really enjoyed themselves including the birthday girl! Plus a few people have said this would be perfect for their birthday parties too. I for one will be booking this venue again in the near future. Thank you again!

Nice pub with nice outdoor seated area

Attended a private event here, absolutely diabolical management and security guards, no security when you walk in but then micro management whilst at event. Never met a more rude bar manager.

Comfy pub with friendly staff. Good pub food. The staff were more than accommodating for a couple with a baby too. Thank you very much.

My son booked his 30th Birthday party here in a private function room upstairs. I flew in from Spain with his brother and sister (16 & 10) to surprise him and my other daughter who live in Leeds. It was wonderful to surprise them and we enjoyed a magical hour, before being informed by the manager that we had to leave due to UK Licensing laws (?) I explained that I was his father, had flown in especially, but was told rules are rules. I’ve since googled and it states children may be asked to vacate the bar at 9pm. We were told to leave at 5pm! A great private function spoiled by a lack of any empathy and I’m convinced the law quoted was incorrect. However, I didn’t want to spoil the mood of my son’s party, so we left. Pretty disgusted to be honest.

I love everything about this place, it’s perfect for a relaxing drink. Great beer, good food, pool tables, lovely staff and 3 beer gardens and a rooftop terrace - those out back are so peaceful it’s like a trip to the countryside!

Nice place. Good beer. Nice wine. Friendly staff. Fantastic pizzas. Would recommend 100%. Thumbs up. :)

Watched the Euro quarter finals here. Very nice pub, excellent service and the pizza was banging. Well managed also. Definitely will come back here next time I’m in Leeds!

A lovely gem of a pub in the city centre. Very friendly and helpful staff - Sophie and Charlotte really looked after us. Food was delicious and freshly prepared with great care. Lots of different areas to sit, a lovely terrace outside and some quieter areas for those of us who just wanted a good chat, as well as a good few pool tables and plenty of areas to sit and enjoy watching the football or other events on their TV screens. Thank you, we had a lovely evening and will definitely be visiting again.

Didn't try the food but the atmosphere and service were great. Good selection of decent pool tables

Great spot with 5 pool tables £6 per half hour. Nice staff too.

It was really good the food was lovely and the drinks

Lovely garden and a good selection of beers

Decent selection of localish ales. When it gets busy they don't do a great job of remembering who is next which is annoying AFw

We hired half of the sports room for my sons stag do, To be honest it is not worth the money, the pool tables are rubbish, cloth worn, not level, cushions all over the place and don't even get me started with the dart board!! i have thrown better in the bin. We even left before our time was up.

First visit 3/5/24 and would return again,great food,good atmosphere & lovely staff. Would like to give a big THANKYOU to Callum for sorting out my issue on my mobile .

The games room could be better, shabby dart board falls off wall, blunt darts, pool tables not level.

Smashing place, quick service, friendly staff! Prices are a little high but it's Leeds City Centre, so they're quite reasonable in that sense. Beer Garden is very nice, multi level too!

Great Bar. Reasonable choice of beers. Plenty of outdoor space. I would give a five star rating if they didn't play such loud music. Many in the main bar are having achat. But having to shout to be heard is which is annoying.

Went to a party here, great venue, a lovely young lady behind the bar

Great venue with nice pool tables

Great place, friendly staff, good prices.

The boy in the kitchen think he said his name was Christian was the loveliest soul and made our visit so pleasant and entertaining thank you so much we will be back

I came in over the bank holiday weekend and had a great night! The staff were amazing and the bartender Mac made us some great cocktails. Great service!

Been here a few times the past couple of weeks, the manager Will was amazing every time we have been in always helpful and looked after me and my mates. Great suggestions on the beer and sound guy

We went as a group specifically for the four pool 🎱 tables which are of really good quility and are in a separate room to the pub. Plenty of different beers to try. The food looked good but didn't eat.

We have had a couple of work socials here now and it has become our go to place for a chill evening of drinks and games

Great prices, lovely venue, great atmosphere and perfect for a quiet drink, plus Sophie the bartender is the loveliest barmaid in town, so friendly and helpful, especially to a newcomer like myself. Definitely recommend this place

Great Guinness, comfortable seating, good background music, reasonable prices, friendly staff. Pool room separate from the bar, enjoyed our visit.

Great spot for pool, sport and good beer. Service is spot on too

Bit bizarre, used to come here a lot and it was always busy. This time had stand-offish staff, we're told we were next in line for a pool table and then saw someone else be given the next free pool table (the bar closed shortly after that). And were charged incorrectly for drinks. Bit of a shambles and so disappointing when it used to be decent. Guess this explains the quieter atmosphere for a Friday night.

Luke was incredible!! Very attentive and great knowledge of drinks !!

Had a really good time on Friday! Luke was really helpful thank you!! X

Sophie made me the best espresso martini I have ever had in my entire 22 years of existence

Not had food from here but lovely place for Drinks & Pool

Stumbled across this pub on a Sunday morning and enjoyed a few drinks and pool. A lovely pub but the out side is ruined by tacky advertising on the front of a lovely building. Staff weren't sure of the buildings history which is a shame as it has the look of tudor styling on the front. The pool tables are pay by the hour which is great but unfortunately at £12 an hour I think it was time to spend some money on new baize and cues. The lack of attention to detail gives all the signs of chain pub management and while the website it all flash and glossy, the gloss wears off very quickly and needs maintaining. We went to go back on Monday to show it to someone in the group the pub but the pub was closed but had times on the front saying it was open at 15:00 on Monday so we went back at 15:30 to fi d it still closed, never thought of checking Website as this states pub is closed.

superb. Charlotte, Sophie and Hannah provided an amazing experience. Pouring great Guinness and providing amazing food. Brilliant place to come

Enjoyable atmosphere, live sports and good pizza.

The best music played! Best bar in Leeds!!!!

What a bar. Bar far the best bar in Leeds. Brilliant food and drinks. Music was great. Pool tables and darts plus a summer terrace!!! Also the manager cal was great fun 😆😆

Great bar, great service, Jack has looooooooooovely locks

Mack is a brilliant ls customer service 10/10

Hired the function room with 4 pool tables, darts board and shuffleboard for works Xmas drinks. Great fun, music not too loud and the 4H passed very quickly!

Went to watch football on a Saturday night. Great choice of beers and a few different TV screens to choose from. Got busy which made viewing difficult but could see once standing.

Fantastic night at parkside tavern, Sophie and Hannah were perfect hosts for myself and my pals, quiz was a great aspect of the night 10/10

I have been in the pub a few times now and it has always been great. My last visit was on Monday, the atmosphere was great and the staff were amazing. I was served by Sophie who was very lovely and accommodating and took the time to explain the drafts. Will be coming back soon!

Jack, Sophie and Kenzie were absolutely amazing! Amazing customer service and brilliant drinks

Went along on a Tuesday night for the speed quiz (a very good quiz) nice pub, good music and good service. Defo coming back for the quiz and drinks! Food is pretty good too.

Came in Sunday great variety of beers and played both darts and pool. the staff were great, Sophie and Jess were very helpful and attentive. Overall great place, will definitely be back !

absolutely fantastic place. great atmosphere. the two bar staff that served me callum and kenzie were amazing. very friendly and polite :)

Great if you like beer + games (darts, pool, shuffleboard)

Great services by Cal, could not do enough for us with great table service.

Great service and tip top food and drinks. Used large function room upstairs for a team meeting -highly recommend

Great venue, friendly staff, a decent selection of ales and spirits and a good atmosphere.

Went to quiz and made a /harmless/ joke team name about the quizmaster’s Twitch shirt. Bar woman took offence to this for some reason and berated the table (?) No banter. Needs to get a grip. Quiz has a dead atmosphere anyway. Dry Dock does the best one.

Going to Nearby Gig. At the Key Club. Soundcheck On Going. Busy Bar. Plenty of Food been eaten. England Rugby on TV Screen,s. Cocktails doing Good Business. Vibrant and Exciting Atmosphere. Had a Beer outside. Very Enjoyable Experience.

Came for the Comedy night. Was packed and a great night.

Popped in here for a quick pint. Sooo awesome! It's fantastic inside, great decor and built under the arches. Awesome service and a fair price. Will definitely be coming back.

Drinks were decent prices and atmosphere was really good, relaxed but upbeat. One of the staff members came off a little hostile but everything was run really smoothly and we felt attended to without being bothered. Tuesday Pub quiz is £1 per person, hosted on SpeedQuizzing. Was a good length and a great time, maybe just needed a bit more variety of topics!

Northern Monk Faith on tap. Take my money!

lovely staff, nice beer garden, and due to it being tucked away you can usually get a seat during sunny weather whilst places like belgrave have queues out the door!

Went for the pool, stayed for the drinks

Lovely pub with exceedingly friendly and polite staff. Excellent, excessively cheesy pizza. Atmosphere was a tad lacklustre - the outdoor spaces were a bit tired and could do with some sprucing up to make them a more appealing place to sit. I'd certainly still come again.

Lovely pub. Go for it! Great atmosphere, service was quick and staff were very friendly. Definitely a great place to hang out with friends, watch games, or just go with your partner. The pizza was delicious and didn't take long to be ready, so definitely good for a bite while having a few pints. It's not very big, but as we weren't very hungry, we got 1 to share between 2. Also pool tables are very well look after. I recommend giving it a go but if you wanna play it, you need to book in advance. At least one day before

This was a great pub to drinking at, with a throwback and flashy design! The counter is well-presented, staff were welcoming and seating is good. I had a pint of Budweiser, although it is somewhat expensive at slightly over £5 and the pool table was fun however.

Really friendly and beer top notch.

Only came in for a few drinks and decided to get some nachos, absolutely gorgeous! Been in a few times now and although you can't go very wrong with nachos, these were amazing. Great vibe inside and lovely outdoor seating too!

Amazing pizzas great choice of beers

Riece was a knowledgeable barman, funny and an absolute pleasure to be served by. It’s an absolute travesty he’s not been promoted yet. If he’s not next time I come in there will be a riot.

Came here for birthday drinks. Best service of the night was by riece. Fantastic bar

Great atmosphere and a great selection of beers/lagers

Good friendly pub, great place to watch Sky Sports

First visit, great decision, booked table online,7 people, great choice of beers and other alcoholic drinks. Good food menu, pizzas very tasty. Friendly staff, great location for pre theatre drinks / food. No room on sun terrace but that didn't stop us having a great time. We will be back. Ps The Proclaimers were amazing

The staff were good, friendly and polite. The atmosphere was good too even in the outside seating area. There was a TV playing sports and they had a pool room. We didn't have food but the pizza kitchen smelt great. The door staff were very good and kept everyone safe and challenged anything they thought was not right.

Took a while to get served found it expensive for drinks but friendly staff didn't have food

Pool tables, outside seating in sun and shade, and food, this is far better than the chippie it was. One of the best pints of landlord in a while. Definitely a student hangout but authentic and worth a visit.

Great outside terrace overlooking the small park.

I visited here on father's day after seeing some reviews on some great social media by these. We order pizzas and chicken goujons and to say i was disappointed would be in understatement. Extremely bland pizzas with no seasoning at all under chicken was like something out of iceland.

Lovely roof terrace, great music and cool atmosphere under the trees out of the summer heat, in the lovely St John's area if Leeds.

Called in for a few beers. Lovely pint of Landlord.

Ita nice and the terrace is lovely but it's spenny and loos are a mission

Lovely pub with multiple outside dining/drinking spaces, 4 pool tables and great selection of food and drink. Staff were friendly and very helpful!

Molly, Sophie & Kirsty were delights great customer service and very helpful, drinks were great and food aswell

Soph, moll and kirstie, Elias were great !! Quick service. Such a bubbly atmosphere! Deffo come again !

Great local pub in the centre of Leeds with an excellent selection of beer on tap and knowledgeable staff.

Went to watch Sheffield Wednesday in the play-off semi final. Nobody else in the area would show the game as europa league was on however I asked Kirsty behind the bar and she was more than accommodating! She got it on the big screen with comms and what a game it ended up being! I work in hospitality myself and Kirsty and the rest of the staff were great and friendly and added to what was a great night. We also had pizzas which were banging! Thank you again Kirsty would definitely come back after the service given!

Great pub. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere.

Decent choice of real ales however rather expensive.

Very good pub, the pizza chef knows what he's doing

Sophie was very friendly and accommodating. Even coming up to the terrace to offer us drinks. Great music playing too.

Popped in had a comedy night on what a great atmosphere! Great upstairs area defo bring the work lot along for a do! Great staff Great service great beer!

Just wanna shout out to your fantastic staff! Especially sophie who was working Saturday afternoon/evening great service, very bubbly and happy, absolute credit to you! We moved on to Belgrave after and they could do with some lessons from your staff!

First time at this venue, was served by the lovely Sophie who was extremely helpful, will definitely be back again!

I came here with Tom for a quick drink and a sit down. I got a can of Red Stripe, being the absolute lad that I am. We sat down at an old rustic table which was really nice and chatted for quite some time. The music wasn't too loud which made for a pleasant experience. Tom even bonded with the table next to us as he was asked to take a picture of them, which delighted him.

Had a great time with my Sister when we visited. We were looked after by a guy called Callum . Couldn’t have been anymore helpful. He described each drink to me because my eyesight isn’t that great and asked me what I like and disliked. It’s not often you get service like this when you go out for a drink but it really made it a fantastic experience. We’re already planning to go back for food and cocktails

Had an amazing night on Saturday, callum and his team were so good and all so friendly , the food was really nice and well presented, highly recommend , will definitely be back 😊

Great little boozer with a great choice of hand pulled beers, although the prices seem to differ from day to day. ie I went in on a Tuesday night and a pint of Landlord was £4.80 but next evening (Wednesday) it was £3.00

Great friendly staff , well kept beers and great atmosphere

Love it here, always good service from the team and a great place to play some pool. Highly recommend.
