We had such an amazing evening. Chatting with the locals. Lovely real people. Craig and his bar staff were hilarious. Love them… The best was when music started last Sunday. If you want to dance boys and girls …. This bar is your making. Happy people. Real people with stories and fun. Craig will look after you . He’s the best! I’ve only been in there once when I dropped my daughter off at Uni’. Safest and happiest place to be. Enjoy everyone. So jealous I’m back in Cambridge. Xx

The bar staff are very very friendly, the beer is always fantastic especially the ales with 12 wickets. I cannot rate the rooms as it is not a hotel just a good old fashioned ale house. The best in Leeds City Centre

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.
