What a lovely pub, very easy to miss as it's down and alley, but a treat when you're in. As with other pubs in the area, this is a "no technology" and "no swearing" pub, creating a lovely atmosphere of people talking and enjoying company, than glued to phones or TV screens. The no swearing rule is a total winner for a bit of peace too. Good selection of drinks, not sure if they do any food or not. Would happily come again.

I like a beer...this place was is friendly but has a weird "click" atmosphere. Good beers, phones and laptops are not tolerated...good for a beer or two, but that's it.

The angel Inn Leeds a Sam Smiths pub based in the centre of Leeds. A big pub with its bar in the tap room wich is small but it has a larger room just across the tap room. It also as 2 big rooms upstairs wich is ware I sat.plus a large outside seating area. It's got a wide range of drinks lager,bitter, and spirits I was disappointed that they no longer served my favourite drink sovereign wich is a shame its a great drink.no music or mobile phones allowed. That all been said not a bad experience but I won't be going in again for another 2 years I'm afraid Sam Smiths is really going down hill

Another wonderful Samuel Smiths pub. Entering this pub is like stepping into a sepia photograph. It really is like going back in time. Add to this the policy of no digital/electronics and you have a magical pub. I fit one love it.

This is the worst pub I’ve ever been to in my life. It’s dirty, silent and the clientele stare you down as soon as you walk in. My friend ordered a couple of pints and the bartender mimicked her order back to her in a high pitch. What reason is there to do this other than treat us with total contempt, presumably because we were a group of women. The aggressive signage around not using phones is so boring and tired - this isn’t the 1930s. Additionally the toilets were in a shocking state. Avoid like the plague.

If you're looking for a very traditional pub with no background music and a decent selection of beers then you'll probably like this place! It's not quite as characterful as some other traditional pubs, though, the decor is slightly bland but tasteful and traditional. There is an open fire in the bar area, which is a nice touch. The only downside is I'm not a huge fan of the owner of Sam Smith's brewery, who has a reputation for not treating his staff well, so I have mixed feelings about supporting his company. But you can't deny he does traditional pubs very well and makes good drinks!

Possibly the worst pub I’ve ever been to. Walked in and the smell of the toilets hits you immediately. Extremely rude woman behind the bar who got angry when I pointed at a beer I thought my friend would like, and was irritated when I pulled out my Apple Pay to pay for a drink. I get the whole no phones thing but do you want me to pay for my drink or not? None of us even finished our drinks before leaving, will never be returning

Beer prices here are great, about £3 per pint which is a struggle to find in Leeds. The selection isn’t bad either a couple of their lager choices are good. They don’t allow children of any age in the pub, you can sit outside with them weather permitting as it’s not sheltered. Also there’s no tech allowed in them, so you don’t get phone signal in there. There’s some characters that go here and plenty of people that look to have been on it all day.

Easily missed from the main precinct, located down a narrow alley this sam smiths pub is well worth a visit. Selling their own well kept ales and largers . Draft ales are priced very reasonable, but bottles are expensive. If you fancy a break from the bustle of the city, give this place a try.The only negatives are the silly no mobile phones rule, and the foul smelling gents loo.

A good old-fashioned and traditional pub in the heart of Leeds, up an alley. It is cash only, and you will definitely be asked to come off your phone if you're using it - it's a tech-free zone! Reasonable prices and a refreshing break from the samey-ness of all of the many cocktails bars.

They have various rules in place (as all Smiths pubs)….however I was asked not to use my ‘phone yet a lowlife stood at the bar and every second word was the ‘F’ word and he was not asked to stop swearing (which a sign over the bar says is banned?). Were they afraid to tell him? Who knows, but it has put me off going in there again despite good beer and prices.

A Sam Smith's house. Looking fresh after lockdown. Still no electronics or swearing allowed. No music either. But in fairness, it does work. But the best bit....they have tap and pay! Yay! I know, but this is a big thing for Sam's, cash only for years. Now there's no need to wander the streets looking for a cash machine.

Just before Christmas. Full of well behaved people who appreciate their beer in a olde worlde building. A cracking pint of Sam's, which I always enjoy and at £3 a pint !! This is Leeds City centre? It's a no mobile pub but it's on two floors, so Humphrey's rules can't be regulated all the time.

cash only - this is a sam smith pub!!! very cheap and good vibes from bar staff and other customers. didn't realise that angel inn is a sam smith pub which means (allegedly) no singing, no phones or tech, and no cards etc however the bar staff do not seem super strict in enforcing this which i was thankful for (especially when texting a friend to make sure i was in the right place, they either did not notice or gave a blind eye). the bar staff are really friendly and welcoming and the pub is a beautiful old 17th century building tucked behind a tiny alleyway. beautiful exposed beams, original wood serving bar and standard pub furnishings. quite busy downstairs but very quiet upstairs which is perfect if you want to catch up with friends. definitely worth a visit if you are in the area - only £3.50 for a vodka lime soda!!

I’ve been going here for over a decade. I went here again yesterday and it was very quiet which is not surprising as it was a Tuesday night, but the bar man (who has been there for many years) simply ignored me. I said please and thank you; but with zero response, in fact the only words he said were the price of the beers, it was just bizarre. By the time that we left, I had gone from feeling upbeat to deflated. Not a good atmosphere like it used to be. I’ll not bother going into the city anymore for a drink, plenty of nice pubs at home in Guiseley, with far more friendly bar staff.

A very rare find in a city like Leeds, with its great period features and a general ban on the use of mobile phones. The room upstairs is great to kick back in pretty comfy chairs, watch the fire and catch up with friends, without the noise and expense of the newer bars. A couple of pints for less than £6 is an absolute bargain as well!

Attempted to have a drink in this pub Thursday 16th around 7pm, wasn't acknowledged at the bar just looked at 3 times whilst the lady on the bar was serving everyone else. Decided to leave as 3 other men were served before us, (looked to be regulars as she knew their order). Reasoning for leaving as the three men came into the pub after us yet they were acknowledged and served before us. Not great customer service. Probably wouldn’t return after this occasion.
