The Fox and Newt in Leeds

Nice pub this. Small upstairs area for gigs and decent range of drinks and friendly service.

£6 A PINT AT WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A STUDENT PUB.

The staff are amazing and friendly

Fast, friendly service. The beer garden could be better but a city pub with a garden is a luxury and it is south facing so I'll take it

One of best classic pub with nice atmosphere.

Wonderful place. Played here with my band, great PA and soundman. The pub is ace.

I'm a regular at the fox and newt, and while I've never tried the food, i can say the staff are lovely, always accommodating, and friendly, to both me and my dog! the only thing that lets the place down a little is the minimum card spend which can be inconvenient but its not an issue of you're staying for more than one because staff let you pay in advance

Atmosphere good for a Tuesday night. Food was nice and reasonably priced. Landlord pleasant and accommodating.

Superb music venue upstairs. Staff were top.

Having to buy multiple pints at one go to pay with card is ridiculous Never heard of any place that has a £10 card limit Even small convenience stores generally do not have a minimum above £2. Even the most dodgy looking of convenience stores does not change - or have a minimum above £2. Well I know for future my card money isn’t valuable to them. Will spend it at (literally every other single pub in the world) - which is more than happy to take care for any amount. Tl;dr They’re likely trying to fiddle money under the tables and only want cash so they can declare less to the taxman. Card NOT WANTED. CASH desirable to aid TAX EVASION. Disclaimer: Am not saying they are tax evaders. Just saying they practice the same tactics as tax evaders. Anyone assessing this business should ask for tax records and deeply investigate this possibility.

Fabulous place to watch a band of a Saturday afternoon. Good to see some vegan food options including bangers and mash, would be good to see more options

Traditional pub with good selection of beers, including Wild Childe beers. Live music sometimes on upstairs.

Great pub, been a few times. Friendly staff

Worst Sunday roast I've ever had in my life. The “giant” Yorkshire pudding you can get for an extra £2 is tiny and leaves you with less food than if you were to get a normal roast as they try to fit the whole roast inside the Yorkshire. The roast potatoes were new potatoes, the mash was watery and lumpy, the beef and turkey were dry, the red cabbage was too sweet to eat and the Yorkshire was burnt round the top and raw on the bottom. Don't usually leave reviews but having paid £17 for a roast dinner I could've made better myself I feel like letting people know not to bother.

Good gig venue, will be back to see more

The food here never disappoints - quiet pub which is a shame as the food is great value

8 in party waiting to long for meals, 1st 2 meals served and eaten before 3rd 4th 5th and 6th arrived when 7th and 8 arrived all had finished there meals. Food staff atmosphere really great 👍. Will be back again. Thanks

Nice little food pub on the edge of Leeds centre. Came for a full Sunday lunch with a family of 7. Dog friendly, nice place.

I came across the FandN a year ago. Stopping in the area for 2 nights on business as Billy no mates, I went to the pub for a quick bite an a drink. It was rather deserted (Monday night), from there I went to a couple of other pubs, also deserted. As I had a very pleasant meal I returned for night number 2. What a difference. It appeared every table was reserved. The very charming ‘manger’ pointed somewhere I could sit. Turned out on Tuesday night its quiz night and its popular. The manager was actually the quizmaster and I entered into conversation with her. From there I was introduced to some locals. Had a great time and have returned on Tuesday nights when in the vicinity. This time was my first Thursday, some familiar local were in, but also some strangers to me. It did not take long before I was into conversation with the strangers. When its busy this is actually one of the friendliest pubs I have come across in Leeds. I would like to thank Hollie, Ellie, Abbie and Mecedes (sic) for attending to my needs so well. Also thanks to Reg, Mark, Harry, El and Jess (customers) for the warm welcome.

My husband and I have been here twice for Sunday lunch and it was excellent both times. The only downside was no room left for dessert! Gorgeous food, and lovely friendly staff x

Way over priced You would think it was in the centre of Leeds Not in a student area I took 1 look at the menu and laughed £9 for a hotdog no thanks I won't be returning Nice little pub just down the road that I frequent Much better atmosphere

Visited mid afternoon on a Thursday, so it was pretty quiet, but that meant service was very quick. Nice pint and really nice food. Would use again next time we're in the area.

Quick service but a min of £10 card payment. Easy to find a seat.

Popped in on a Tuesday evening 6pm to grab a bite and a beer having never visited Leeds before. Told a quiz night is happening at 7pm and and the tables downstairs are booked from 7pm. But they happily fitted me in with food and a couple of beers before this , great service, nice people, good honest food cooked well and a good atmosphere. Will be visiting again 😀.

Baby looked after us really well

A really cute pub with the BEST music. We ran in to watch the women's football and they had opened specially. Ordered delicious Buffalo wings which fed two people. The fries are seasoned and delicious. A really underrated and cute little pub with a lot of charm and character.

Brilliant Sunday lunch, good beer and efficient service. Recommended

Great traditional pub in the middle of Burley. Freindly team. Good food. Dog freindly.

Called for Sunday lunch this afternoon. Lovely staff. Top class lunch beef dinner was best I tasted in the area by far. Music of the 80's playing whilst we waited with a guiness. Great ambience. See you next time. Spread the good word. 😁👍. Dog friendly 🐕🐕🐕🐕

Visited for a lunchtime drink and food on Sat 8th July. The draught beer my husband selected was not available and the barmaid struggled to pull a decent pint of his other choice so he had to resort to lager. Placed our lunch order for 3 people and was warned there would be a delay as another table of 4 had just placed an order. The pub was quiet with no other diners and only a couple of solitary drinkers so we we were surprised that our order took 45 mins to arrive. Interestingly the other table of 4 had eaten and left before our food arrived. When it did finally arrive it was disappointing to say the least. Stale bun on fish finger sandwich and beer batter on the fish and chip order was claggy rather that light and fluffy and not good quality fish. Chicken burger was equally mediocre. Not a good value meal at £55 for 3 inc the lager and 2 diet cokes. Was not asked if everything was ok so gave feedback on paying which they thanked me for. Let’s hope they take it on board so no-one else has a similar experience. Would recommend that they reduce the menu offer as far too much choice and concentrate on less options but of a better quality.

What a lovely charming place! Me and my dad are up for the weekend to watch the cricket and after a long 5 hour drive this is exactly what we needed. A couple delicious pints and good pub grub. The only thing we couldn't believe that there weren't more people in! Maybe it gets busier on a Saturday night, I dunno. Either way, a lovely cozy little pub with that local friendly feel. Would eat and drink in there every weekend if I was local 😂

Really great food at reasonable prices. Service was exceptional. If you pay on card it has to be over £10. Music slightly loud so can't hear each other but nice venue

Up in Burley area of Leeds for a few days. Popped in yesterday for a couple of beers, popped back in today for..... You've guessed it a couple of beers. The decor is nice, relaxing and not in your face. The beer, coming from London, was a decent pint and price. The young lady behind the bar both days was welcoming, friendly, intelligent and helpful. Will pop in again if in the area

Good selection of beers. Got there too late for food but the menu looks GREAT

The Fox 🦊 sat smiling to the Newt, two pints of each a bowl of soup, they trotted in & pattered out, the band played on the Fox drank stout, students folk & drivers too, visit here as we all do !

It's a good pub for a drink plus play board games etc.

Great pub, nice beer and good food

Good atmosphere. Good food. Good beer.

Their pub quiz on Tuesdays has a great atmosphere and all their food is superb!

The owner is very friendly and the place is perfect to chill and have a good beer. I recommend

Gorgeous Sunday dinners at the Fox and Newt

Didn’t really enjoy my stop there, all a bit pretentious, don’t take cards, no signs of promised foxes and newts in a cold and unwelcoming bar area.

Nice wee boozer had few last night watching the football nice beer aswell

The food in the Fox 🦊 is absolutely amazing I can't recommend it highly enough.... The Sunday roast is top notch 🦊🦊

Food was good although my issue was the bun on my burger which turned out burnt. Otherwise it would have been amazing since the chicken patty was juicy enough.The salad was good too.

I thought it very expensive and nobody in their

Amazing service, the bartenders were great! Good pours on the taps as well! Looking forward to going there on a Tuesday as its a games night 😁

A nice, friendly pub just outside of the city centre where it's a bit quieter

Have been coming here for years and is my favourite pub in Leeds. The food is delicious and very reasonably priced for homemade food. The roast in particular is INCREDIBLE and they have good veggie/vegan options too. Holly behind the bar is super friendly and helpful too. Can't wait to come for my next roast! :)

Over priced beer that went flat before I got sat down.

A small pub offering a range of drinks and simple but tasty food. Staff were very friendly, made me feel very welcome. Service was efficient and polite. A friendly crowd was in for the weekly quiz. My first time in this part of Leeds (on business trip for 2 days), I enjoyed the evening, the quiz was fun. I imagine the pub might be quiet some of the time, so it was a pleasant evening among some folk who were out to enjoy themselves sensibly. I will return to the Fox and Newt next time I am in the area.

What kind of pub has a 10 pound minimum spend at the bar? Shocking kitchen service, food was awful and I've had the runs for the past 6 hours since I ate here. KITCHEN IS COMPRISED, FLIES ON THE WALLS ETC

Lovely welcome, great value Sunday roast, all in all will definitely go again! 😁

We usually come here for our Sunday roast, when come to Leeds to visit our son, food atmosphere and service are spot on.

Great Sunday lunch. Moved son into to university digs around the corner. Went to Sunday lunch there. We all had the roast beef Sunday lunch each at fourteen quid a pop. Massive and delicious. Well worth every penny.

Solid Sunday roast We chose beef, £13, and you get so much more than just that👌🏼

Nice friendly staff and a lovely pint 👍👍👍👍

Nice quiet pub,friendly staff,food was good pub grub 👌 .damp/blown plaster on 1 wall was off putting that's why 4star

Had a lovely lamb burger. My friends had a crodile burger Today Charlie went back for a zebra burger which he enjoyed too

Played scrabble. Bar staff terrific. Have a £10 min purchase. Pints are £5 each so good if two of you or a greedy sod like my friend the fish. Dined here too, not as delicious as I anticipated but filled a hole. A great venue. Missed the pub quiz, perhaps another time.

A fantastic pub and music venue staff very polite a fantastic venue

Good friendly service, nice welcome and atmosphere

The landlord (manager) could do with bucking his ideas up. Somebody get me the Captain.

They do awesome pies. Friendly staff. Games in the corner. Very studenty but it is surrounded by university campuses.

The staff are very friendly, helpful with accommodating to changing how some items are cooked. Food excellent. Definitely 5 out of 5 on all aspects.

Down to Earth pub with some exotic meal choices. Anyone fancy a crocodile burger? :)

Great place to see bands and good beer

Nice 👍 inside bubbly staff enjoyed myself so will surely be back

Nice friendly pub just outside Leeds city centre. Cracking real ales. Serves lovely food until 8pm. Perfect when Leeds city centre is too busy.

Hollie was a lovely host - so welcoming and friendly. Would recommend to anyone

Holly is amazing!! Fab night with loads of atmosphere! Played the best music on request. Thank you!!

Decent food in a convivial atmosphere.

A nice quiet pint if not a tad expensive

Really great pub very friendly staff good food and well worth a visit

Good traditional boozer didn't eat but the food looks good - nice Guinness all part of a good day out in leeds

The Sunday roast was absolutely unreal. Proper pub Sunday roasts and great portions

Sound staff- good lads and lassies. Clientele is maybe a wee bit hipster or wannabe hipster but harmless. Good pub. Would revisit.

Popular place with locals seems to have stuff on every night it was comedy night when we were there (Monday). Staff friendly just stayed for one drink as we were going into town.

Just called in for one drink. They have different things going on through the week it was comedy night, Monday, staff friendly. It seems more for local people.

Nice, clean, friendly pub with a decent selection of beers and great food. Enjoyed a family Sunday lunch. Each of us had a different option for our Sunday roast; one beef, one gammon and one pork sausage roast. The apple pie and carrot cake desserts were equally nice.

please not try 'lost in IKEA', which is really awful.

Good staff, good beer, process could be a bit lower.

Eve was the best waitress and barmaid we have ever come to witness. She advised my Dad on his life problems all the while providing a good bar service. Eve made sure our drinks were served to us in a timely fashion and we will definitely be returning to this bar.

I visited the Fox and Newt last Thursday for a late dinner as it was just up the road from our hotel. There weren't any tables but the assistant manager moved her things off a table so we could sit. The kitchen was about to close but they were happy to accept our last minute order. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was great, very reasonably priced, and all the staff were so friendly. They and the locals were great fun and we ended up having a boogie all together to songs on Spotify! My husband and I, along with my in-laws, had a brilliant fun night and we came back on the Friday after the cricket. Again the food was top notch and atmosphere was great! Highlights were the crocodile burger and fish & chips. I'd definitely visit again and can highly recommend it. Thanks to the staff for making our visits so memorable.

Excellent comedy night with a decent pint

Classic pub, decent pint and not too busy. Didn't try the food but menu looked fair enough.

My twin brother Stephen and I had just been to The Kirkstall Brewery Taproom and after visiting that wonderful brewery and taproom we headed back to the city centre were we found two great pubs namely The Highland Pub and this pub called The Fox & Newt Pub and what a great find. Walking in and I knew I would enjoy my visit, the interior is superb, a fantastic eye catching serving bar dominates the main room, tv's to enjoy the sport, pubby decor and furnishings including plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, a really good first class pub. We were here on a Thursday evening, we ordered Carlsberg beer, these were served in excellent condition being iced cold and sparkling and we just kicked back, chilled out and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular pub. My beer was really good, a light, hoppy and unpretentious lager style beer bursting with taste, on a hot evening a totally refreshing brew, it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a great Danish beer . We both really enjoyed our beers in here, had a great time before we moved on and for a first time visit to The Fox & Newt Pub we were totally impressed. The Fox & Newt Pub is easy to locate along Burley Street. Opening hours are; Monday to Thursday, Midday till 11pm. Friday & Saturday, Midday till Midnight. Sunday, Midday till 9.30pm. A wonderful pub,most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Very friendly, enjoyed the beer. The food looks fascinating, though I haven't tried it yet

The Fox and Newt on Burley street is an excellent pub in Leeds city centre that offer a superb beer range and an excellent food menu. This is an excellent pub and is the last remaining brew-pub in the city centre with a great selection of Burley street brewhouse beers on tap and also guest beers'the Fox and Newt is the ideal pub for a few beers or a tasty meal. Housed in the former Rutland hotel this fantastic pub has a fantastic interior which looks like it has had a recent refurbishment with many interesting fixtures and features and an upstairs area where they host live music and comedy nights. We visited here on our way back from the superb Kirkstall brewery and tap-room and the Highland pub and decided to visit here for a quick beer.On entry we gave our track and trace details and we took our seat in the main bar area. As it's still table service only one of the staff took our order of a couple of glasses of lager from the Carlsberg brewery which where served iced cold and well priced.On Hindsight we should have had a few cask beers but we wanted something which was iced cold and refreshing as it was a roasting hot day and needed cooling down. The Fox and Newt is well worth visiting and is very easy to find from Leeds City College bus stop it's a short walk.(This is my first review of the Fox and Newt). Opening Hours. Monday-Thursday-12.00-23.00. Friday-Saturday-12.00-00.00. Sunday-12.09-23.00. Hours May Differ From Above Due To The Covid 19 Restrictions Which End On The 19th Of July. Nearest Bus Stop. Leeds City College bus stop.

Fantastic got to Leeds Friday went to the fox and newt made me so welcome went back there Saturday night to see some music stella wembely and rome burns was a brilliant night then went back Sunday lunch the landlord and the girls working were awesome the staff and the boss are a credit to the hospitality trade and I thankyou all for a truly memorable weekend from the bloke with a beard and black nail varnish xxxx

Proper pub with a good choice of food and drinks. Friendly staff, sunny seating outside. Just what we needed on the way home.

Clean, nice and relaxing. Great customer service

Good beer, ,and very friendly staff

Quality of service on par with a top end restaurant. Attentive, expeditious, considerate.

Great comedy and good cheap pints

I went to a comedy night the first night pubs were allowed to open and the headlining act was Jason Manford, what amazed me was that he wasn't the best comic, some of the local comics were amazing and I really hope this is something they continue. The drinks were reasonably priced and the service was incredible, this is a propper locals pub, and I would recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely love this place. Great atmosphere, exceptional service and friendly staff. Very good food and even better beer 😍

Every time i go its bloody shut 🙈

I was a bit concerned coming to Leeds with Covid rate being high but this place was perfect. Friendly ( even to Southerners) social distancing and covid safety the best I've seen. Proper pub food, fresh, hot and tasty. Excellent beer brewed on site.

Called in here today for Sunday lunch.Had to fill out a contact form on arrival. They had an app which you could use to order food and drinks,but I just ordered over the bar no problem. We both had the Beef,good sized portion arrived.Beef a little on tough side,might have to start ordering something else. Nice little pub would call in again.
