Stump Cross in Leeds

Proper nice little pub, real friendly people. Been here a few times as good truck parking overnight over the road, cant believe more of the truckers don’t use it as they do food and also have live sky sport.

Came Sunday with friends for 3 Roast Dinners. We had 2 beef and 1 pork. Beautifully presented, all hot, tasted amazing and crackling was perfect!!

Visited the Stump many times since new owners have taken over. The food is beautiful and home cooked and the service is always friendly and makes us feel welcome. Prices are reasonable too. Also been in to watch sport with the kids and there has been a great atmosphere. Found a new local!

Travelled up from ipswich for the football and stumbled across this place. If I could give 10 stars I would. Was made to feel very welcome from the staff and customers. Fantastic choice of beers and will definetly be back soon xx

First time here today after my mum raved about it Great Sunday dinner, very tasty and plenty of everything! Really accommodating management, made sure the baby had a high chair and kept checking in to see if we needed anything for the baby. Very friendly and sociable team. Definitely be back!

New management,Laura and Elisha, completely turned this pub around, warm,friendly, nothing too much and the food is absolutely fantastic, not to be missed and kids welcome

The people are lovely and friendly, lovely atmosphere and the food was lovely. We had ham and eggs and it was delicious with friendly welcoming service.

The wife & I went there today for a Christmas dinner & it was one of the best meals we have ever had. The staff were very helpful & friendly esp Laura, the landlady who couldn’t do enough for us. We would recommend everyone to try the excellent pub out & they won’t regret it. Thank you Laura & Elisha!

Well where to start. The stump has been my local for more than 40 years. I’ve seen them come and I’ve seen them go. The last 3 years have been very good but alas it’s been taken over by new licences again, Laura and Elisha. We tried the new food menu and WOW! It was amazing. I had the curried goat and my wife had the lambs liver and mash. Absolutely delicious. A grand selection of bar food throughout the week is now available and I just can’t wait to try the Sunday lunch. The new chefs are outstandingly good. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I do hope that they have every success in this new venture. I do recommend that you give it a try.

Just a Sunday lunch with family, nothing special, but the place, food, atmosphere, prices etc all good.

Visited the Stump Cross for the first time yesterday for Sunday lunch and we were not dissapointed. We both had roast pork with cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, peas and roast potatoes and Yorkshire pud! And it was delicious and so was the 2 pints of leeds Pale Ale. The pub was quite busy when we left so I would advise booking a table. We will definitely visit again!!! Nearly forgot... The apple crumble was excellent.

Danny and Miranda are great hosts! They take great pride in the place!,which is always spotlessly clean!! Always a warm welcome! To us and our dog!! … she actually likes Danny better than us tbh … the treat man!! 🤣 great clientele too ! Really friendly folk!! and to top it off the beer is always top notch!! Couldn’t fault anything!! 😊

Me and the lads came in after work, The staff were amazing, the price’s are reasonable, music is good! Clear the this pub is suitable for everyone, family sat having food and enjoying themselves, group of lads, group of lasses, old couple, young couple and a few single locals, every single person enjoying themselves.

First let's give the benefit of doubt, and say maybe it was just a bad day in the kitchen. But as our party all felt the same way about our meal we are posting this review for the benefit of others, including the guys that run the pub. One big issue with the overall meal was the lack of seasoning in everything on the plate. We were fighting over the salt and pepper from start to finish, which helped a little but really this needs some attention at the stove not the table. To be fair and honest let it be said that the actual ingredient elements are of high quality, they just failed to reach their potential due to poor attention during the cooking process. Hopefully the chef will get a spice rack for Christmas and give the food a taste-check before sending it out, as it really was rather bland. Another kitchen issue was the under cooking of vegetables. Shame really, as there was a good selection on the plate but all were equally missing a little more oven time than they were given. We all turn out a crunchy carrot now and again, but here we were served a full spectrum of broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, potatoes - each and every one was underdone to the point of being 'too hard to enjoy', including the mash, bizarrely. So maybe a veg timer to go with the spice rack would help, along with that taste check prior to plating up. Away from the kitchen (to give the poor chef a break) there was an issue with portion management that stood out to all our party. The starring role should go to the roast meat, but it was a little lost and lonely amongst the massed ranks of super sized veg portions which occupied most of the plate. It seemed each of us were given a whole head of broccoli, half a cauli and a family portion of carrot and cabbage - had it been well cooked and seasoned we might have done it some justice, but to be honest it was still too 'big' on the plate for our liking. The gravy was good. The lumpy white stuff in the pyrex jug was not, and we failed to identify it either as bread or cheese sauce. It might have been there to soften the mash, not sure really. Across those issues it left us disappointed to eat here, but there is a lot of potential to get back on the track towards good food. The pub is a very nice environment to be in - really clean, light and airy, a very welcoming and pleasant place to be. The beer is good, and it should be too, as it is more expensive than other local pubs. If we 'did it different' we would switch from the current pile-it-high but cook-it-quick approach. Focus on the flavour and the processes to produce a reduced array of better finished veg on a more balanced plate with the roast meat as the star. It's obvious these guys actually want to get it right, as the quality of the raw ingredients is clear and their generosity can't be faulted. The service is quick, efficient, friendly. The pub is clean, welcoming and a pleasant place to be. We were so looking forward to some home-cooked fresh Sunday Lunch but were let down on our visit, this time.

Last Friday we came here and enjoyed a couple of drinks. We were served by the Landlord and he was nice and friendly and taking care cleaning. We thought we'd take our two dogs as we had before, only, I stepped through the door and sanitized my hands. The unfriendly bar maid, said dogs weren't allowed. We could sit in the beer garden she said. This we did. I sat with the dogs and my partner went in for the drinks. Moments later there was shouting. Apparently, he'd used the 'exit only' door. Ok, well why wasn't there a sign to say it was exit only. The bar woman came out shouting and swearing. I was mostly calm and said we should just go. The shouting continued. My partner gave as good as he got but the whole thing was very unexpected and unnecessary. I've never seen such an irate member of staff in my life. That woman should be sacked. We won't be going again.

Went there after shopping had the streak beget don't like salad or coleslaw so without asking gave me extra onion rings wow amazing meal..

We visited here on recommendation and we weren’t disappointed. We had scampi, chilli nachos and a beef baguette, it was all cooked from fresh and was delicious!! We’re even going to return tomorrow for Sunday lunch 👍🏼

Haven't been to this pub in about 4 years but both my dad and myself decided to give it a go today for lunch. Walked in to be greeted by Dan and the pub dog, Bailey. Pub had just been refurbished and looked really good. Dan was so friendly and confirmed he'd only been in there a couple of months. As the menu was small we asked what the specials were. Still didn't fancy anything so the Chef asked what we fancied. He then went and made us what we'd asked for - gammon, eggs and chips. I can honestly say this was the best pub meal I've had - in fact we both agreed and believe me my dad isn't easy to please lol. Would highly recommend this pub for the food, the friendly atmosphere, the decor and the beautiful friendly Bailey who sat with us during most of our visit. If you've visited this pub before and was not impressed please try again under new management. You won't be disappointed

Llamé aquí para tomar el té y nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos. El personal es muy amable y excepcionalmente servicial. No he estado en el pub por mucho tiempo. Solía ser un antiguo pub tradicional, pero ¡GUAU qué transformación. Interior contemporáneo pero simpatizante del pub tradicional que era. Gran selección de cervezas. El menú de comida puede no ser extenso, pero aunque pequeño, está perfectamente formado. El chef es realmente útil con cualquier pregunta dietética. Una persona con nosotros tiene una alergia específica.

The Stump Cross is an outstanding traditional pub with great service from a former Morley Councillor who has supported the local community for many years. The service is friendly, the atmosphere is great and nothing is too much trouble for the owners. The pub supports local sports clubs such as Morley Water Polo club and they deserve all the success in the world This is a great pub, run by great people who care about their community. The people of Morley need to support the Stump Cross as they offer great value and service. All the best Morley Water Polo club

Happy , friendly , bar , locals are spot on didn’t try the food , as we went to a restaurant that night 😃😃😃

Sherry, manager of this wonderful pub/restaurant so welcoming, friendly and warm. Decor of pub was lovely and much better than it was before. Customer service from bar staff excellent as was thier knowledge of wine. A good range of traditional beers too. Would recommend and will be returning! Wishing Sherry continued success with this lovely friendly place.

Worst Sunday lunch we have ever eaten sloppy horrible mash veg looked like they had been cut with a chopper broccoli brown from over cooking

Don't bother. Just been for Sunday lunch had to wait ages for 1st plate too arrive then another 10 mins for second plate and another 5 mins for the other 2plates hence 1st person had finished their lunch before the last 2 plates had arrived. Thank god for the salt and pepper because the food was tasteless and over cooked

En este pequeño y precioso pub el miércoles en la noche busca un teléfono de pago ya que mi coche se había roto por fuera al mismo tiempo que mi teléfono se acabó la batería! Como yo creo que no había teléfono, pero cuando me fui al pub el hombre encantador, detrás del bar me preguntó si estaba bien, cuando le expliqué mi situación me dejó usar el teléfono para llamar a mi marido de pub. Gracias, me has ahorrado un largo caminar a casa.

Seen this pub advertising food all day for a while, so thought we would try it went out of our way to get there,when we arrived we're told no food as they had no staff, bar maid stood with arms on bar,also payment cash only,will not bother going again.

Ha sido un largo tiempo desde que he estado en el muñón (3 terratenientes a mi conteo). He estado en todos los locales para comer el domingo a lo largo de los años y oír que uno de mis favoritos de pubs en Morley estaba en marcha de nuevo y sirve comida de nuevo, pensamos que le daría una ventilación. El pub estaba un poco tranquilo, pero tenía unas cuantas personas comedor. Mi esposa y yo pedimos un almuerzo asado de cerdo. La comida llegó caliente con un barco salsa individuales. El almuerzo fue probablemente uno de los mejores que he tenido durante mucho tiempo. Todo era fresco y perfectamente preparado. Absolutamente delicioso. Este es ahora mi número uno para comer el domingo en Morley. Sobresaliente.

To the Gentleman called omelette all our food is fresh aswell as the meat is locally sourced if you want to spend £2 up the road crack on. Well you are from Brum .

No pagaría más de 2 libras para una cena de este pub a menos que te guste todo verduras congeladas y carne absoluty vile y gente tan desagradable que lo llevan son arrogantes y no merecen estar en el pub el comercio. . Como la cerveza. los gustos líneas no han sido limpiado en meses. . Evitar como la peste. . preferiría pasar los 5 minutos en el coche e ir al asador de la carretera

just had sunday roast good portions tasty well worth the money.not too many people in which is a shame considering the good food ,and friendly service.lady did say they were just getting it going ,so I think not long took it over,deserves to thrive.recommended.

Nos fuimos para el almuerzo del domingo, el personal era amable y acogedor, para nosotros y nuestro pequeño perro. Teníamos un asado los domingos, que era excelente y una gran relación calidad-precio. La próxima vez que estemos en la zona definitivamente nuevo.

The pub is a lovely little pub, comfortable and reasonable prices! It's lovely and clean, only down side is the miserable lady and man serving!!

They have obviously spent some money on the place trying to bring it up in standard which to be fair, is great. However, a pup with no slim-line tonic or bitter lemon ?They do keep the beer well but other than that, Work in progress best describes this place.

A gorgeous Sunday lunch with really friendly and great service- totally recommend!! We were greeted by friendly staff who were warm and welcoming. Food order taken quickly and brought to the table in good time. The food was home made ,generous portions and we would say the nicest Sunday dinner we have eaten out for some time!!! Much better than the chains of queuing up for a carvey in other places! If you like a friendly atmosphere with proper home cooked food then try here!

chloe & taj made my husbands birthday special great buffet good music great people family & friends we had a fantastic night

Really impressed with my Sunday Lunch here -----fantastic Portion and cooked really well. Great Managers who really know how to welcome old Customers and New . Highly recommended

The Stump Cross has been my local for many years. Since Taj and Chloe took over in 2015, the quality of draught beer and food has greatly improved. I try and get in most Sundays for one of Chloe's Sunday roasts, always beautifully cooked with good quality ingredients. I also had the opportunity to try one of Taj's pizzas the other day, lovely thin base and loads of flavour. Weekday food times have just changed, now 4pm-9pm.Pop in and give it a try sometime.

A friendly welcome awaits from Chloe and Taj. You have to try their Steak and Ale Pie.Doombar ale is usually on tap and kept perfectly.

New landlord taken over very pleasant person ,made very welcome,been in 4 times four food meat @ veg pie very nice served with mash @peas home made ,chicken curry with rice also home made very nice but let down last time by the lasagne it was really burnt could only eat the under neath of it I would have thrown it away and done another one ,normally I would have complained,but others I were with were very satisfied I was not put of by this and will dine there again just took it as a bad mistake.

We called in here on a cold, dark, Saturday evening. The welcome was warm as was the pub. I noticed some people eating a pizza and it looked so delicious I thought I'd try one. I asked if I could take it out as I didn't want it right away. Not a problem. They have taken pizzas to another level. I get tired of ordering a thin and crispy pizza and still getting a thick doughy base. The bases here really are thin and crispy and absolutely delicious. Plenty of toppings, and are just perfection. If you want to take one home with you that's not a problem either. They are all cooked to order and you can have a drink whilst you wait. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Was taken to this pub by someone that new the people that run it, it was lovely bright friendly and warm, we had pizza and it was way above my expectations for a pub, excellent I would recommend the stump cross.

My partner and I called in here yesterday for the first time to meet my sister in law, on arrival we were met by a lovely couple, Chloe and Taj who informed us that they had only just taken over the pub a few weeks ago. Service is good, very friendly and the drinks are reasonably priced, I'll be coming back.

Very good food will deff visit again home made steak and ale pie was lovely and plenty of it worth paying the money very cheep

As the stump advertised an extensive menu ,thought we would try it again very disappointed I had scampi and chunky chips not home made frozen thick chips, my daughter had the steak pie pastry 2 inch thick pastry and soggy no veg peas with every dish , had cocktails one served in a latte cup not a good example ,as we spent over 40 pounds will not be doing it again .

Great food, lovely steaks and pizzas. Well worth trying the Sunday lunches. Lovely bar staff and welcoming atmosphere.

Visited today and I think this is a lovely little pub. You have to pay cash for the food as it is separate to the bar however the food is lovely and very good value. All the staff including the chef were very friendly. The toilet facilities were very clean too. Would recommend if your passing by and stuck in traffic on the road outside. By the time we had eaten meal. The traffic had cleared. Great way to pass time. ☺

We went here on the 18th 6 adults 2 children we all had a meal and it was lovely we would go again ad a refurb in toilets n flooring a new chef delightful good staff n landlady welcoming place

Went with friends to the so called Caribbean night what a dissapointent no decorations no reggae music no Caribbean atmosphere just a couple of tables & chairs outside & steel band which had to pack up early due to complaints from surrounding neighbours thank goodness for Glenn`s goat curry very tasty but please take note charging £10 per ticket for a steel band and a goat curry is Not a Caribbean Night

Over the last 3 months visited the pub for a meal 3 times,first time had yorkshire pud with sausage quite nice, second visit had scampi and lovely home made chunky chips, party of four enjoyed them, went to day what a let down started serving frozen chips ,will not be eating there again.

Lovely welcoming landlady, bar staff happy, cheerful and chatty and they have a pretty good DJ on a friday and Saturday too. Well worth checking out the cocktail menu and the new food menu.

called for a meal after work for a change, the pub as had a recent refurb so looks great, new landlady who is very welcoming, lovely atmosphere, really enjoyed our meal it was lovely, will be calling there again.

Went for dinner as a stop off on a trip to the airport to break up the journey. Read reviews and thought it looked decent. Got there, and was slightly under whelmed, the place looked nice but didn't feel able to get comfortable, odd atmosphere. Food menu was limited and they didn't have a card payment machine, when the food arrived it wasn't great but 2 x adult meals and 2 x kids meals for £15, what could you expect. One pint of cider and one pint of lemonade for the driver was over £5, little steep. Overall, didn't enjoy the stop off and wished we knew about the collection of restaurants 2 miles down the road.

Called into my "local" while on vacation and staying with my parents in East Ardsley ... It's only a few minutes drive.My 3rd time here over the last few years and a great pint ... and great hospitality."Usually" have a pint of Leeds Pale Ale but it is off tonight so "making do" with a pint of hand pulled IPA. Wife settled for a half of John Smiths and pork scratching.This is a real pub!

The quality of food is superb and the menu is great. Even caters for gluten free (for me ). Good prices too!Great atmosphere at the weekends and the new cocktail list is brilliant. I'll be down again for a Woowoo!! :)

After not visiting the pub for a few months we were.told there were new owners and new menu so we thought we would try it my brother and his wife were with us as soon as he saw the new prices on the menu , he said I'm not paying that for pub food we left and went to the whistle stop at beeston and all had a good meal for half the price of the stump cross

A cracked window that hasn't been replaced in 6 months and gents toilets that are dingy and dark. In need of a total revamp. Good food but quality of ale and decor let it down

This used to be a very old fashioned pub. converted and brought into the 21st century recently it boasts a large open plan bar area and a small back room. the pub serves an excellent hand pulled Leeds Ale and also a great pint of Tetleys Bitter...sadly no longer brewed in the city of its birth...excellent food menu help wash down the beer..not the most extensive but there should be something for everyone...there are sometimes specials on offer aswell....the portions are generous and service speedy. they do a lunch and early evening food service.if you like a cocktail then they do an super range and at reasonable prices.my only compliant is the gents toilet falls far below standard and is in dire need of refurbishment......other than that top local pub. plenty of parking and easy to find on the main A650 near the Morley Asdaian

We called in on a recommendation from a work colleague on a Sunday evening. I had a cheeseburger and my husband had a sweet chilli burger both served with home made chips and salad. The service was good, the meals hot and tasty and we will definitely revisit - maybe try the Sunday lunch next time.

was staying local on business, staff and customers made you feel very welcome, beer is good, excellent sports coverage, Sunday roast a must.

This is a traditional pub - ne pretense - just good beer - normal non posing peopleFood OK - beer great
