We popped in here on a few nights during a recent stay in Leeds … It’s a very good locals type of pub with a nice atmosphere … The staff seemed friendly and service was quick … Beer good too which is always a bonus … I would have no hesitation in returning to this pub if I’m ever in Leeds again

One of the greatest pubs in the known universe! And surprisingly the beer is excellent, despite it being a Grene King pub.

Wow what a fantastic afternoon. Excellent beer ( Old Peculiar) really friendly staff. I asked to speak to the manager ( Ian ) to congratulate him on the well kept ale's and how well the staff managed the bar. People were trying to push in and they dealt with it so professionally!!! Hats off all round

Myself and my partner visit the templar quite frequently on a Friday night or Saturday night even though we are NOT regularise we're in this Friday just gone nad yes it was very very busy but even after waiting for 10 minutes to be served IT WAS worth the wait the staff as usual were certious and friendly YES IT is a quaint OLD fashioned pub. But YOU cannot beat the old fashioned types these days I WOULD sooner be in an old fashioned boozer to some of these modern day places

The Templar is a great pub even by Leeds high standard. Always a good selection of beers served in perfect condition. Friendly locals & welcoming bar staff. I visit Leeds once a month & they always ask 'Is it a pint of Kirkstall Brewery?'. Exterior is by Burmantofts tiling. The traditional wood interior still has its bell pushes. Quite central so definitely worth a visit if you want to experience the real city and its history & avoid generic bars

Came here on recommendation by staff at the Town Hall Tavern and we were not disappointed. A gem of a Greene King pub that has lots of guest ales ( plus Peroni and Madri on tap for the ladies.) Paulicarus started on Osset White Rat followed by Belhaven 80 shilling and finally Kirkstall Three Swords. A blackboard displays the full range of 8 real ales. The bar is long and narrow with beams and oak panelling. Lovely fixtures and fittings. Too many TV's for me. Will definitely add it to my list of favourite Leeds bars.

Found this little gem amongst the big trendy bars in Leeds central. If you want value for money drinks with the locals, then this is the place. Staff friendly and helpful and busy friendly atmosphere. A vodka and coke and a pint for under 7 quid served with a friendly smile and quick service too despite the volume of customers. About 5 mins walk from the first direct arena and opposite a travelodge, location perfect

This is a traditional city centre pub in a city which has very few of them nowadays. There is a great choice of around 7 or 8 cask ales which on a Monday are only £2.30 a pint. My personal fave is the Kirkstall “Three Swords”. The staff are all friendly and helpful too!

Situated on Vicar Lane, opposite the bottom entrance to the Grand Arcade, it's hard to believe that this beautiful old pub was earmarked for demolition only a few years ago. Hopefully that threat has now been totally rescinded , because in a city full of gentrified, characterless, overpriced bars, it stands out like treasure. The Templar is a good old-fashioned English pub, one of the very last decent ones in Leeds city centre. It has a wonderful historic exterior, with matching interior architecture, great staff, an excellent range of well-kept ales, sold at very reasonable prices, and friendly locals. Definitely somewhere to check out if you're visiting Leeds
