The Calverley Arms in Leeds

Plenty of parking Friendly welcome from staff Warm comfortable atmosphere Good value for money with decent quality

Awesome food, Jo was a lovely server.

Brilliant friendly service, highly recommend!!

Jo was fantastic and organised us all, everything was perfect- thanks Jo

Delicious food and excellent service as always. Special thanks to Jo for looking after us and understanding we were short on time.

Jo was amazing, made our Xmas lunch out even better!

Thanks to Jo for being a fab host today for our work, pre Christmas get together lunch. Thank you for your help. Happy Christmas 🎄 😊

We had a wonderful service from Jo our waitress 😄💖🎄 She was friendly very helpful and supportive with my friend’s allergy concerns.. and having been in the catering trade it’s lovely to get such professional friendly service 💖 Also the food was delicious We all enjoyed our Christmas lunch with friends from London.. thank you 😄🎄👍

This used to be my go to place but recently I feel like the service has really dropped off. We came for our festive meal and when we arrived it seemed like they'd forgot out booking. A bit of a fuss was made about seating us but the pub was really quiet. We eventually got sat kind of seperate from the main resturant which was fine, as we prefer private, but unfortunately it meant that the service was lacking. Took a while to get a drink and then getting another was hard. My friends mean came without the gravy and we had to ask 3 people to get it. They also forgot my coke later. Some of the food was overcooked. It was quiet so it was confusing. With that said, the food was tasty and the pub was decorated really well and we still enjoyed ourselves. Maybe just worth taking a look at the service, because it used to be much better.

Fabulous pub/restaurant. Ideal for family gatherings. Food and service were excellent. Made to feel welcome.

Another wonderful meal with fabulous service from Ciaran

food and drink was lovely, lilly gave great service, lovely personality and helpful.

6 of us went for the Festive Lunch, it was very good value for money. I had a beautifully cooked rib eye steak but it doesn't come with veg, a portion of peas would have been nice. The restaurant is lovely and the staff are very friendly and helpful, we would definately eat here again.

Great 70th birthday celebrations. Thanks, Lily!

Christmas Dinner - ran out of most starters and main course options so had to choose other items we didn't particularly want. Chicken skewer ran out so replaced with king prawn - still with shells on, barbecued so dried dried out and crispy - inedible and laughed at by the rest of the group because of how it looked. Sticky rice was over cooked and the whole lot could be picked up solid altogether on a fork - inedible. Probably the worst Christmas Dinner experience unfortunately !

Millie, was fab! Very warm and welcoming and made it a lovely experience, thank you!

Christmas team meal, everything was good, food and service thank you

Thank you Lily for hosting a great meal!

Awny looked after us. Food was terrific. Service exemplary. Definitely will come back.

Visited today as a party of 4. Ordered Roast Trio, Turkey, Pie of the Day and Chicken Parmigiana. Very good portion sizes and food was well cooked. Special mentions for our chefs Adam & Ellie and our server Millie for the excellent service.

Lilly our waitress was marvelous

Lovely lunch today served by Jo who was very friendly and attentive. Food was great by chef Awny.

Good atmosphere and well run . Staff very attentive and efficient . Dan our waiter was very good and was polite without overdoing it. Recommended.

Excellent food with a dog friendly area away from main diners. Service was top notch from Awny and the team

Nothing wrong with the food- there was just too much of it 🤣🤣🤣

Friendly attentive staff. Good atmosphere and dining room spacious and comfortable. Food good and food options good.

Enjoyed all aspects of my stay.

Service wasba little slower than I expected but the food was great.

I would like to extend a huge, thank you to your front of house, staff, bar staff and serving staff for a superb and exceptional Christmas Day lunch, even the chef came out to say hello. You went the extra mile to ensure that everything was spot on. Thanks for the extra veg! Was it a little slow at times, yes but did it matter, no! It was Christmas Day and the pressure was on, you certainly delivered, on every level. Thank you!

Arrived before other family so had a drink at bar , one lager not available on fraught although barman didn’t realise till told. Also kept talking to his colleague every time he asked us something so not listening. Went through for dinner, first waitress nice enough and welcoming , starters came after a wait (but not too long) problem with one , missing an ingredient . Mushrooms lukewarm and the toast was soggy . Problems started with mains MASSIVE wait , 2 steaks ordered and 2 different skewers . Skewers arrived , and was just that ! Lamb skewer 5 small pieces of dry lamb and nothing else . Steaks looked ok, had to find a member of staff to find out why we hadn’t got chips, were brought out after a wait , but no salad or side as told on menu. Couldn’t be bothered to wait again for this so had 5 small pieces of lamb and approx 8 chips for £18?!asked for a refund due to no sides , 1 skewer was taken off menu . Drinks ordered while eating came in dribs and drabs , never were all 4 drinks brought together . Had to ask for bill as declined dessert , apologies from the original waitress , who advised she wasn’t sure what happened. Then I presume a lady who was in charge came to apologise . My in-laws had booked a 2 night stay (not cheap) and thankfully their stay went ok, and they said breakfast was much better . But when a dining bill for 4 with some drinks isn’t far off £200 you expect better . Keep giving the calverley arms a chance every so often, but no more I’m afraid . Such a shame but it needs a serious shake up and a new chef

We haven’t been to Calverley Arms for a while, however we were really pleasantly surprised. We went with our 5 and 6 year old who can be a handful at times however our waitress Tasha was brilliant nothing was too much for her she really made us feel at ease and due to her diligence we had a really fantastic time. Many thanks

The Calverley Arms is a lovely cosy pub and located not far from where I needed to travel for work. The food was lovely and the pub/restaurant had a great atmosphere, with lovely staff! I arrived at the hotel late on a Sunday evening after a long journey and found there were no lifts to the rooms, and due to a 5 night stay I had a few bags with me! It was a struggle carrying it all up the stairs and I wasn’t offered any help. The rooms are clean and a good size, however my room sat above the restaurant and I could hear the music playing until 11pm every night and it was quite loud as the walls are paper thin! I could also hear anyone in the rooms next to me or opposite - it felt like they were in the room due to how loud it was! As I was travelling for work and needed to be up early each morning this wasn’t great.

We had a fantastic Sunday meal. Staff were very accommodating (even with the silly problems I threw at them making changes unnecessarily 🙈) we had a really lovely family meal would definitely recommend 🙂

Lovely place to stay we only stayed 1 night conveniently placed for leeds and Bradford .clean and comfortable lovely staff.

Great hotel clean rooms very friendly staff.

Éramos 7 de nosotros aquí para mi madre 89 cumpleaños, todos pensamos que la comida era basura y caro para lo que era, esperamos 45 minutos para que llegara y cuando lo hizo era tibia, yo tenía un plato de pollo que era más de £ 18 y ni siquiera un pedazo de pechuga de pollo, mi marido tenía pescado y patatas fritas pan desmigado no rebozado, 2 tenían sándwiches que wernt bueno. Luke cafés calientes incluso después de pedir uno más caliente! El personal era lo suficientemente agradable, pero la espera para la comida no era grande o agradable cuando llegó, con miedo de que estropeó nuestro cumpleaños de mamás.

Thank you to Danny and Amber for the delicious food and for Georgia for serving us! We had a lovely meal and will be bringing our friends back for Sunday Lunch soon!

One my favourite places to eat. We were looked after by Millie who was absolutely brilliant and couldn't do enough for us.

Exceptional service by Millie this weekend for breakfast and dinner! Also props to Adam and Joe the chefs - food was delicious as always!

Would always recommend this place. Lovely surroundings, nice atmosphere and great service. Been a few times on our own and also brought family when they visit. Becoming our “go to” for a nice meal, as you can always count on it. Had lunch this afternoon. Brilliant service from Dan. Friendly and very attentive but never pushy 😁

Excellent food cooked just right service by Dan and Imogen was top notch 5 ⭐️

Pleasant vintage inns brand pub, good food, sane portion sizes, shame about the broken oven that delayed things a bit. Excellent service team ☺

Great roast in a cosy pub. Service was great and the waiter Dan went out his way to keep us happy.

All four starters and meals were lovely. Millie was a great server, overall a lovely afternoon.

We came for the second time and had an amazing time. Millie was a great server and made sure we were comfortable and happy. Definitely recommend and will be back!

Millie was excellent in her service, providing good conversation and steering us around the menu helpfully, had a great meal

The Calverley Arms is a great place for lunch. Good menu with some different choices. Food very good and service by Jo was excellent - Jo was friendly, very helpful and delivered with a smile. We will definitely call again when next in the area, just a shame the Calverley Arms isn't closer to where we live.

Este lugar ha mejorado enormemente desde mi última visita que fue hace un par de años. La razón por la que no hemos vuelto antes fue porque era malo pero ya no. Todo el ambiente del lugar es mucho mejor , se sentía acogedor , el personal era increíble , todo amable y profesional. La comida era genial también. La brocheta de pollo estaba deliciosa, la carne estaba húmeda y tierna y la ensalada feta que la acompañaba era crujiente y fresca. El único consejo que yo diría es advertir a los clientes lo caliente que está la brocheta de metal - ¡ay! Hacía calor cuando intentamos recogerlo. Una visita muy agradable - bien hecho!

Delicious meal of aubergine gratin. Friendly and helpful staff. We were served quite quickly.

Had many meals here over the years but they have obviously got a different chef as the food was no where near as good as other meals I’ve had there in the past. This explains why it was empty.

The central heating wasn't working, so the bedroom was very cold. However, the staff were very quick to bring up a radiator so we could heat the room. The bathroom howevervwas very warm. We love staying in room 7. It's a largish room with a lovely large bathroom. We have found this room is a quiet room without disturbances. We tend to choose this room when we stay.

They never, ever answer the phone. Doesn’t matter what time you ring. I’ve tried various times during the day and evening and they never answer. I’ve left numerous voice messages for a callback and never received one. It’s frustrating!

Estuve aquí un par de veces recientemente con nuestro perro y disfrutamos de un par de copas de vino junto al fuego y tuvimos los aperitivos de 3 bares por 12 libras. Bonito ambiente y la relación calidad-precio para los aperitivos del bar es genial muy sabroso e ideal si solo quieres algo exigente antes de tener su sábado por la noche para llevar.

Great service from Millie and fantastic food!

El trío del domingo fue fantástico y fish n chips genial. Millie, nuestro servidor era burbujeante y amigable mientras que también era eficiente.

We had an amazing roast. Service also fantastic. We have been a few times and definitely will keep returning.

Great food and top service from Millie 👍🏼

Lovely service great food will come again

Dan the waiter recommended a pie and he was correct! It was an amazing pie

Lovely food as always, Our waitress Millie, was friendly and approachable. Great meal out.

Not enough staff and over priced for what you get.

Incredibly amazing food! Everyone enjoyed their meals as they were cooked to perfection. 10/10. Would definitely come here again! 😋👍

Such a charming and cute stay! And Jo is an absolute angel!!! Thank you for taking care of me and my jet lag. Will come back soon!

Poor us the only way to describe the meal today. The triple cooked chip were the worst chips i have ever tasted. Crisp on the outside and full of oil, the small amount of salad was limp and like it had been left out all day. Very disappointing . Food was Over priced as portions were small. 3 very small scoops of ice-cream £4.95.

Very Nice Service, foʻod excellent

Had Sunday lunch here with two family members. Everything was cooked perfectly and arrived at the table hot. The staff were very pleasant and looked like they enjoyed their work. Highly recommended

Been a few times,the food and service is great. Always a lovely atmosphere,very pleasant staff keep up the good work

First time dining here. Staff were wonderful. Will definitely be returning. We were served by a lovely girl called Natasha. She was very pleasant and professional. Very friendly too.

Arrived early so we could enjoy a drink in the bar area with lovely views of Rodley / Horsforth Valley. Very clean and airy, busy but comfortable. X3 Sunday lunches, plentiful and tasty (lamb on the underside so if you want it cooked well, I’d probably ask) They offer a smaller desert with a hot drink which to finish the meal is more than ample. Plus for a small extra you can have a liqueur. We had black coffees with a Jamesons. Atmosphere was very relaxed, lots of staff that although busy, didn’t appear to show any rushing round. Service was excellent by ‘Dan’.

Alice was a fantastic waitress. Fantastic food and great selection of drinks

Lovely food and excellent service

Excellent service and food . Really good breakfast, good portions and great value. Staff are smashing and always look after us. Thank you.

Lovely room, very friendly service. Very happy with the checkout time of midday! Nice to not have to rush out early in the morning.

We had 30 people to a 60th surprise birthday. We visited a few times before and all staff on each visit were really friendly and helpful. My emails were always answered and I was made to feel confident about the party. The surprise went perfectly, the buffet was gorgeous and the area a perfect size for what we needed. Everyone commented how good the buffet was and how much they enjoyed it. Thank you so much to Catherine, her team and the chef. Fab day! P.S. We've also had family meals on many occasions and the food has always been really good.

Dan our server was amazing! Food lovely and really quick! Well done all highly recommend 👍

Natasha was a great waitress, friendly and helpful.

Poor lunch cold no check back no apology .wasnt happy with the service .

Service was friendly & efficient. Very attentive. Food & drink choices amble. We all had Sunday Lunch. 2x Belly Pork, 1x Turkey with extra Cauli Cheese and Pigs in Blankets. We all said how delicious it all was & compliments to the chefs/kitchen staff. Couldn't fault it at all and one of the best in Leeds by far. Desserts were also tip top & scrummilicious. We'll be back soon. Ta v much.

Great vegan options, including a roast

Best Sunday dinner I’ve ever had out, our server Natasha was extremely friendly and attentive, will definitely be back!

Great place lovely staff and dog friendly

The staff were amazing...the restaurant and food...amazing...the room looked ok but on entering it smelled so bad of cigarettes it was sickening. The bed was like lying on a rock. Totally recommend the bar and food but not to sleep over there

Fabulous food and first class service.

A few issues with food but service was still great. Thank you to Imogen for sorting everything out. We will be back just as we have been many times !

I stayed recently at the calverly arms for 2 evenings & had a lovely quiet stay with comfortable bed, clean facilities and plenty of space in the room abd bathroom. Only negatives were a few dropped floorboards in the room and some slightly pixilated tv channels. Would recommend to friends and family staying local to farsley, pudsey, Calverley, Horsforth and surrounds.

Great rangeof food on offer but very pleased at the fact that gluten-free/ dairy-free needs we're met with no hassle

Lovely place to stay, room was spacious, welcome was friendly, only stopped one night. Looks like a popular spot to eat and drink

Food was great, service was great, pricing was great. Overall just great value

Lovely Sunday lunch with great service from Natasha and the other staff as always!

Beautiful scenery. Lovely pub, nice room and friendly helpful staff. A yummy breakfast too, yes I highly recommend it!

Great location just outside Leeds. Ideal for business trips. Hotel looks really good, outdoor seating is a big plus if the weather holds

Very pleasant. Lots of outdoor seating. First went seven years ago and keep going back. Great location away from busy roads. Large gardens. Was served by Lilly last night (18 April 2024) and she was brilliant. And served by Olivia this evening (18 Sep 2024) who was polite, helpful, and a great waitress. Food is usually good. The decor and feel is really great.

Food reasonable standard and price. Waitress service cheerful and helpful but the kitchen has been spectacularly slow for at least the last 12 months: last year we waited 2 hours for food we'd pre-ordered the week before! (With a hungry 3 year old in tow too!)

Excellent meal with colleagues at the end of a very productive day. Service was great too. Delivered with a beaming smile each time the staff approached our table.

Lily. Great Service and Customer Service. An asset to your establishment

Comfortable and convenient for visiting Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate

Was a delicious meal with great company x Lovely location and amazing food and fabulous service xx Thankyou x the garlic mushrooms delicious and so was the fish cake ,we have eaten that twice in a row

Have had a beer but no food, will update when I do. Lovely beer, lovely ambience.

Attended for a meal with a friend, been many times before. Food fabulous, I do have a favourite... brisket sandwich amazing. Staff friendly and food is not only fabulous it's well priced too. See you again soon.

Excellent service, great food, nice surroundings
