The Fox & Grapes in Leeds

We celebrated my sons 2nd birthday and we had a table for 17 and 2 dogs . Everything was brilliant 👏 we would definitely recommend and return.

I liked the food and the staff stated it would be beneficial for us to order as a group rather than individually. Food therefore came separately to others. Staff very helpful and accommodating. The price of drinks was in my opinion horrendous £9.30 for 2 cokes !!

Very welcoming and accommodating staff, who were very attentive but not overly so. The food menu was interesting and varied. Everything we ordered was tasty, hot and well presented. The drink selection was comprehensive and nicely chilled. Very dog friendly with a selection of snacks and drinks available for canine friends. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a nice cosy pub atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back.

I had been past this pub many times during my working life but had never been in, so on the way back from Leeds one evening one evening in December with my wife and daughter we decided to go in for tea. It wasn't busy and we were told we could sit where we wanted so we chose a table next to the window. We suddenly realised how cold it was in there and mentioned to one of the staff how cold it was. She told us the heating had been off for two weeks after a gas leak and wasn't fixed yet, the only heating were fan heaters above the doors and being a pretty big place they were not making much difference. We did move further into the middle away from the window which was slightly better. I must say the food was very good, I had fish with chunky chips, my wife and daughter had hunters chicken. The food was hot and sure it was freshly cooked and not like some of the places where it's warmed up in a microwave. We chose the to have the main course and pudding menu which gave quite a discount, basically getting the deserts for 50p. The staff were polite and friendly, the pub was clean and very pleasant. We will go again when the heating is fixed or in the warmer months.

Had a lovely full English breakfast/ brunch. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We were able to use the private function room where we could work undisturbed so it was a very positive experience and I will definitely be back.

Nice place with friendly staff and the food was also good.will be back again soon.

Things have definitely improved here over the last few years. Good food plenty of drink options and finally staff cleaning. Stopped coming here 5 years ago but gave it another chance while passing and I'm glad I did. Massive improvement

Called in on the way to York for a bite to eat. Food was amazing and the atmosphere did not dissapoint either, relaxed , charming and welcoming. Enjoyed it so much so that we even called in for a breakfast the following morning. Will definitely be revisting in the near future

We had Sunday dinner there last week. The meal looked like it had been plated up then left to go cold - there was a dried out tide line of gravy on the plate. The food was served cold. We asked for it to be replaced and they brought the same plates back but hotter. I assume they just plate up in advance and then microwave. It was very bland. The staff were pleasant enough but not really bothered. They apologised repeatedly but didn't actually do anything to give us confidence in them. On the plus side, the kids enjoyed playing the board games on offer and we sat in a nice cosy corner. Definitely won't be back.

Very Impressed! Very helpful and accommodating for our dietary needs (gluten free and dairy free) cooked breakfast. Privided extra bacon and eggs to make up for items unable to eat. Their Oatmilk hot chocolate is amazing!!!

Good food. Average drink selection. Great service.

Lovely service Lovely staff food portions just right well worth the money 😊👌

Peaceful atmosphere. Food was substandard. The seat had something stuck to it that went on to my trousers. Which really annoyed me. I don't think I'd pay the food prices again as it's over priced for the quality of food received. The starter also was expensive for what we got. I wouldn't eat there again.

Went to order food at the bar twice to be told we don't have any roast dinners left went back to order something else we don't have that either waste of a journey from york .

Absolutely great Sunday roast. Plenty of choice of meats. Great yorkshire puddings

Excellent food and service. Definitely worth a visit.

I was too drunk to actually know

Found by chance travelling north on A1 - great food, great service, really lovely stop off.

Great Sunday dinner. Very polite and helpful staff. Dessert was also amazing. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Amazing food and lovely atmosphere , the set menu is fantastic value for money, food is served fast ,the staff are very friendly

Lovely fish and chips served by helpful friendly people, always enjoy going here

Wonderful place. Had the pleasure of catching this place on the way home from a Sunday day out. We had our dog and were looking for a place that we could have Sunday dinner. The meal was hearty and there was plenty of choice. The staff were very welcoming and the whole place is VERY dog friendly, but still clean, tidy and homely. If you get the chance, I recommend highly

Beautiful pub. Excellent food except the Broccoli was very under cooked and and I thought the steak was tasty but chewy. Nethertheless I will return. Excellent atmosphere and the service was so relaxed for an Saturday evening. Thank you to all the staff for making our evening.

We go in this pub regularly can't fault it very nice friendly staff always make you feel very welcome 10 out of 10

The meal was so nice.will be returning soon.

All the staff at the fox and grapes were very helpful. The Birra Moretti Sale DI Mare is well worth trying. And the food was exceptional.

We booked for a Wake, as its handy from whinmoor cemetery. The food was good quality and plentiful. Many of our party enjoyed the sausage rolls, bruschetta and gyoza. Service was excellent. Even when there was a area power cut we were kept informed. staff worked hard to find ways to quickly catch up when power resumed. The function room was perfect for our needs, I'd definitely recommend the fox and grapes to others.

Just want to really say that I am ordinarily not one to complain but today was unacceptable in my humble opinion. I paid 13 pounds for a pork loin Sunday dinner at the Fox and Grapes and the pork was 3 very small slices as thick as a bacon rasher, if that. I was very surprised and told the waitress so. To be fair she couldn't have been anymore helpful in that she brought me 3 more very thinly sliced, small pieces of pork that looked like they had been boiled, but it was something. So I don't blame any individuals here. The Yorkshire pudding was big, but very dry and not good at all, and the veg looked like it had been cooked the day before and was very dry. I didn't even touch it. There was a 1 inch high layer of mash that had congealed gravy on it. Gordon Ramsay would have had a field day! The manager did come over and offered me some pigs in blankets? He was doing his best in the situation that we were in, but the point had really been missed. If you are a pub claiming to sell great quality food, then this just isn't good enough. From portion size, to how the food looks and tastes, its just a very poor standard! I hope there is a review of what you serve to people as your claims are certainly not living up to the reality! I am very disappointed and will not return to eat there. Crazy prices for the quality!!

Spur of the moment visit with family for Sunday lunch - lovely staff, very efficient and polite - Lamb shank was delicious and the meat fell of the bone - Sunday lunch was good value with unlimited top up of roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy - well worth a visit. Dogs made very welcome, they even have their own menus! A selection of games are also available to keep the kids entertained!

We visit here a few times a year. The food is always delicious, the service is fast and the roast dinners are incredible! They’re also dog friendly and very accommodating for our nervous dog!

Lovely food not just for us but for our dog as well..

Stopped for breakfast and wow was I impressed, I had a massive and delicious full English for ....£7.50 . Fantastic value! Nice helpful staff , big carpark and cosy and smart interior , I'd definitely recommend.

It is just off the A64 York Road a short distance from the Atrium, Leeds Garden Centre, and the Red Bus Café. Certainly a regular for folks from Thorner, Whinmoor and surrounding, it is popular among those who own pets especially 🐕 dogs. There is a menu catering specifically for dogs, in addition to letting your poodle enjoy a drink of water 💧 and a cosy blanket. A few steps below the ground floor is a function room for your birthdays. You place your order and pay immediately at the bar 🍸. Try the hot meals on Sunday. Especially the lamb shank.

Good pub for being dog friendly

Proper good pub grub! Just what we needed as a stop off on our road trip!

Visited on a Friday afternoon whilst on a road trip from Exeter. Warmly greeted by a friendly member of staff, Mary, who looked after us throughout by serving drinks, taking our order and delivering our food, which was piping hot and delicious. Look after Mary, she is a lovely young lady and a credit to your establishment. Would certainly visit again if we are ever up this way, again. Well done 👏👏

£6:30 for a bottle of bummers, all drinks are over priced, would not recommend

Great service food was well cooked and nice staff

Had my mums wake ,picked a buffet menu (sandwiches) I did up the amount by 10 coming the day before but I think the quality was just shared into another 10 sandwiches hardly any filling at all ,large bread slices with hardly any filling in fact some just had a slice of lettuce and a slice of tomato,also very dry bread ,I was so disappointed for my dad who is 90 and wanted everything perfect for mums send off there was lots left over but I think it’s simply because the sandwiches were awful

Arguably the greatest bar/restaurant within a 50 mile radius. There are no words for how good this place actually is, I'm going to name my first born Fox & Grapes because my dopamine levels were off the scale here. Might not even leave, this is my new home.

Beautiful pub with very warm and friendly staff would recommend to anyone, dog friendly to also had a full menu for your 4 legged friend

Jess was so so so lovely! BEST SERVER EVER 🩵🩵🩵 Had some great drinks so many fun games such as guess who and cards and a kids corner for us 20 year olds

Great service! Amazing food as well! We had a few drinks and got some snacks from the bar, the chicken strips are fantastic will defo be coming back!

Brilliant, quick and efficient service, thank you!

Very quick and efficient service. Atmosphere lacking due to traffic restrictions for the Leeds Festival.

It wasn't overly busy but a good few outside. Food didn't take too long, (10 ish minutes) and the quality was great... the quantity was a little light compared to other venues for a similar meal at comparative cost. I didn't want desert so didn't feel totally sustained.

Fantastic food and service, highly recommend

Delicious food, especially the steak and venison pie, excellent service and atmosphere.

We had a fantastic time celebrating our wedding at this pub! Food was amazing and the staff were very helpful and hospitable! Would 100% come again ❤️

Delicious, excellent atmosphere. Dog friendly.

friendly service, dogs welcome and menu for them! great variety of options. toilets very clean. lovely atmosphere will definitely return!

Service was great! Great choice of beers and the food is the best food I’ve had in the area

We've drove past this pub many times but finally got a chance to visit! We were served by Mary who was an absolute delight, very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely be back!

Amazing really good food and drinks would recommend for anyone going… we went after York races would recommend janshdhjsjsnnshsnnsns bsnsnsnhshsbnshsh bsnsnsnsb

We have been coming to the restaurant for over 20 years and experienced its highs and lows over time. The last few times (2024) we have been positively impressed with the improved menu and quality of the food. The staff are always friendly and the service is good.

Absolutely amazing Sunday lunch. Will definitely return. Our dog is on the puparazzi board too 😁

Food . Obviously cooked from frozen . Yorkshire pudding were like leather. All cooked from frozen.

The meat was excellent. Friendly team.

Friendly and welcoming staff, quick service and beautiful food.. definitely will come back if in the area.

Great Sunday lunch and staff friendly and welcoming. Very happy with surroundings too.

Lovley food, allow dogs and take a picture of them and get put on a wall, lovley and welcoming staff, 100% recommend

Absolutely lovely meal, I had the three cheese mushroom bruschetta then we both had the fish and chips, great prices really enjoyed it, infact we was so full we couldn’t eat a dessert

Always nice food. Pleasant staff. Gentle atmosphere. Good disabled access at the rear.

Wonderful afternoon tea, great service and lovely food all round .

Food is lovely, plentyful and hot ,staff are very polite ,we didn't feel rushed between courses , great selection of drinks , we will definitely return and bring our dog mabel next time .

Lovely pub, we chose it because it's advertised as dog friendly and they didn't disappoint. Not only were there dog biscuits, there was a display of snacks and treats. Dog beer (I think) was available & food. Lots of water and very kind friendly staff who greeted our dog like an old friend. Our food was delicious. The staff member behind the bar particularly lovely. Nice welcoming atmosphere, clean and fresh. I wish we lived nearer.

Steak was overcooked and gristely Both mine and my wife's plates had too much residual fat from fried items Frozen chips Surroundings and service was good food disappointing

Lovely place to eat in nice staff a bit pricey tho on the drinks

Meal and drinks for 5 mid week. Great steak, decent price

Breakfast superb. Absolutely delicious, great value for money and friendly service. Would recommend 😀

Fantastic historic inn with lovely, polite staff! Our drinks were served very meticulously, with a wide choice of beers, wines and spirits. We will update our review once we have tried their appetite inducing menu of food!

Great place and price with wonderful atmosphere. This place looks beautiful and accepts dogs! They have an extensive menu and a doggy menu too. There is indoor and outdoor seating and lovely comfy chairs inside. You can double up rum for £1.50

Fantastic Sunday lunch. Absolutely would recommend x

The food was gorgeous. I had hake tagliatelle. Given a knife and fork, should of had a spoo n, but not offered. Sat in a room on our own. No one came to see if the meal was to our satisfaction or upsell on deserts/ coffees. Other the that, meal and my company was good.

Absolutely excellent food with extra portions. Quality service, with great staff. That is why we enjoy it here.

Highly recommended... a great stop for a quick drink or two. Loved the ambience and gardens. Plenty free parking.

We were going to the cricket atheadingley and pulled in by chance.they made us welcome with a happy smile.the menu was good and varied,when the food we ordered came to us it was all on hot plates and dishes, the food was also of the best quality and tasted marvellous, we have said that we will be going back again in August when we go back to headingley for the cricket.

Visited today for my belated birthday meal with immediate family. On booking told had to pay a deposit. Ordered 4 X the calamari & prawn starter.. came out .over cooked dark brown, the calamari was like little pork scratchings. There was not much of it either. Asked for replacing starters immediatly as this was not acceptable. Redone and returned . Was better but still not great. I had the Hake & scallop starter, there was 2 scallops sat on the Hake, that was it, they was cooked OK. The tagliatelle was OK ...rest had Sunday dinner was OK. Asked for extra gravy was waiting a while for it to come out. Realised after we had left they had not knocked the deposit off the bill, my daughter rang them and was told it would take up to 10 days for the deposit to be paid back as a refund as ut comes from head office. This is disgraceful. Apart from our table there was one more table eating so a deposit was probably pointless anyway. Very disappointed never had a poor meal before hoping this is a one off

Some of the food was not up to temperature unfortunately.

Friendly staff, Daughter had a roast dinner and enjoyed. Beer selection OK, but not enough variation.

Just been to the fox and grapes, the service was great with 4 people behind the bar. The food was excellent and of a great quality, it was served hot and we didn't have to wait long. We sat in a booth, the only problem with that was it was slightly draughty from the windows. Overall it was a great meal

Staff were lovely food was cooked too perfection. They even had toys to keep our nearly two years old little boy happy whilst we waited. Really nice environment to be. Parking is really good and facilities are clean and tidy. 10/10

Great service, warm atmosphere inside Perfect 👍

Lovely atmosphere but no stakes no burgers on a Saturday is a joke with limited menu is poor walked in and straight back out.

Scrumptious British pub food. Great music!!!!! Staff are perfect. Nice clean environment and garden. We stopped on the way to Sheffield. Foumd this by chance, easy parking, very nice break.

avacado on toast was on warm bread, alas, but staff were quick to resolve

Booked a table here as we was staying in a hotel nearby. Pub had a casual approach. No table service and order at bar which is fine. First table we sat at was sticky so moved to another. Menus were a bit grubby which I personally don't like. Food came in good time and was OK. Nothing special but good for the price. Overall a very mediocre pub. Maybe at busier times there is more of an atmosphere. We visited on a Saturday evening and the pub was almost empty. Not sure if this is a one off. Wouldn't visit again

Didn’t eat but amazing place for a few drinks. Come out paintballinng for my birthday and here afrer

Lunch time appointment with colleague was well spent Excellent attentive staff with superb meal Like to thank in particular Annabelle & Jess for making us both most welcome

Called in here for breakfast on Sunday morning. Sat outside lovely beer garden area. Friendly staff, great food great service

The food was excellent and reasonably priced. Only minor let down was very limited number of veggie/vegan options unfortunately.

We were a bit surprised at how quiet it was for a Friday lunchtime especially as the food was very good and the staff were really friendly and welcoming.

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere, the real fire is fantastic. Lovely service from friendly staff.

Lovely place to pop for a meal,friendly and helpful staff, doggy friendly a real bonus with a very welcoming dog menu and treats on the bar . Good menu choice and reasonable price

Came across the pub by accident. So glad we did. Food excellent, staff lovely, and dog friendly. Even got a doggy menu😊scampi best I've had.

We happened across this little gem of a place totally by accident i was looking for a place to turn around in, we decided to call in for a midway roadtrip cuppa and maybe have a nosey that the menu.......well im really glad we did because we walked away totally impressed by our experience. The 2 young ladies that greeted/served us were friendly and welcoming, the place felt warm and friendly in that old fashioned country pub kind of way but paired with a modern feel. The menu was varied, catering to most peoples tastes but short enough that your not overloaded with choice. We ordered the scampi, chips and peas and the bangers and mash......both dishes were simply excellent the food tasted fresh and freshly cooked, the sausage and mash flavours were perfectly paired, the portion sizes were spot on and incredibly good value for money. I would totally recommend this place 100%

Lovely place to dine. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Traditional feel inside the venue with plenty of parking outside. Just off the A64 in between Leeds and York. Good selection of drinks and the food is outstanding. You won’t be disappointed.

great food… staff were lovely…. quick service… will come back soon

Lovely food ,good service ...it was just a little cold inside , I did take a cardigan which I am glad of otherwise I'd have been eating with my coat on ...Maybe a nice coal fire central would be nice ,Otherwise cannot fault the place . Will definatley be returning ....
