Great live music on Saturday night. IPA and real ale selection is immense. Really enjoyed the Eternal IPA. Reasonably priced for city centre pub. Would recommend.

We go here often, it’s a nice bar that attracts a good crowd. I don’t know if a bar with a better selection of keg beers than this one, there are too many to list. We usually enjoy drinking the different IPAs, some cost a few pound more than usual but are worth every penny. It’s dog friendly too, only ever seen us with dogs. It’s a big bar with some outdoor seating but due to ii’s popularity it’s not always possible to get a seat straight away. All the staff are friendly and helpful. Sometimes there is live music on. They also have shuffleboard.

¡Vine aquí a tomar una copa y hacía mucho ruido! Sí, era un sábado por la noche, pero tuve que gritar para que me escucharan. Aparte de eso, es un gran lugar para tomar una copa, y había un cálido fuego crujiente que le dio al lugar una sensación acogedora.

On the outset this place was large and well spaced out with friendly staff. A good choices of craft beers and a plentiful collection of drinks behind the bar. Prices are very reasonable and there’s large tables suitable for larger groups. The food however although served hot and fresh was a little burnt and dry. Some dishes appeared to have cooked with more care but there burnt parts somewhat made the food a little implantable. Over all, a good place to come In the evening but select your food dish carefully

Disappointing that the food has been downgraded. The burgers used to be amazing - massive smash burgers with interesting add ons. Now just tiny, greasy, frozen jobs that Burger King can beat. Great pub, shame about the short sighted profiteering.

Another great visit to this fantastic bar. We returned here because last time we were in Leeds we discovered it and found the staff sooooo dog friendly that when we left ThistleDoodleJack had a few new friends. The choice of drinks, especially beers, is brilliant, and they have themes/guest breweries every so often. The staff are knowledgable and happy to help you choose from the baffling array. We had some snack food on our second visit and it was fantastic - far better than a pub should serve. There is a choice of seating including booths, stools, tables and outside terrace. We've found every spot has it's own atmosphere, but the only place we haven't hung out is by the games. Did I mention they have a few games which are popular. Most of the week this place seems busy enough to feel popular, but Friday & Saturday evenings it can get very busy. This is the No.1 spot for us in Leeds, not least for the amazing staff - in fact probably because of them - and it'll continue to be a destination in its own right. I've give it 6* if I could.

£8-90 for a single vodka & Diet Coke ridiculous pricing in every other bar in Leeds I was paying between £4-30 to £5 the place itself is great with great music but the bar pricing is way over the top After a discussion with the manager and told that I had been charged for a double vodka by mistake I have changed my review to five stars

Been in a few times before on an evening and they often do have some nice ales on. We've eaten here too and were not impressed with the food, very basic. Popped in today at mid-day. £13.40 for an ale and two cokes. The ale was off, so they were going to swap it for me after pulling through some more. That barrel had got to it's end, so poured me a different ale. First pulled one of those through, then gave me the next pint out of it. Clearly no-one had had the ales yet that day. That one tasted like vinegar again too. Just left it. My Daughter also didn't drink her coke as it had a slice of lemon in it, and she has a thing about fruit in drinks. Oh well. Probably won't go again.

Ordinarily it would be 5 stars! The staff and atmosphere are great. But I've had to walk out due to the music being too loud. The reason being it was a private booking. I'm all for private bookings but there's no reason why the whole pub should be subjected to the ridiculously loud music that was played

I begin this review with “would you pay £13.50 for the burger below?” The service was brilliant at the Head of Steam, however the food is absolutely rubbish. I paid £13.50 for a so called ‘Korean burger’ the ‘Asian coleslaw’ was sauceless carrots and onions and the chips were barely cooked right, also to add the burger bun looked like Warbourten bun from the Tesco express next door! The burger was boring and unsatisfying. Their pizzas look good but paying a premium price for a burger and getting rubbish is frustrating.

We had been looking forward to having the chicken gyros meal that we'd enjoyed for the past few times, but when we got there, they had changed the menu since our last visit. It wasn't a huge issue as its expected with food places, so we chose some of the new options. My partner chose the double bacon cheeseburger and fries for £15, and I chose the Korean chicken wrap, which was £13 with skin on fries. Both meals were really nice so will be having those again. We visited on a Saturday afternoon, and it was just right. Not too busy, so we were able to get a booth seating area. And we didn't have to wait too long for the food. The female toilets are decorated lovely, only one issue is every single toilet seat is broken so you do kind of slip off when you sit down so it won't be any help when you're on a night out after a few sherberts haha! The broken seats are not a new thing as they were like this on a leaving do last year, so a little cheeky request to the Manager to get these fixed please! It's quite a good-sized bar with decent amounts of seating. There's bar games you can book a night out with friends which are quite good fun. There's takeaway canned beer options. There's a small outside seating area so you can watch the shoppers go by. It is situated behind Boots on the back side of Trinity. If you come out of the side of Boots where punk pizza is, turn left and head towards Park Row, it is just on the left hand corner opposite Tesco.

The friendly staff are always enthusiastic about the beers available, which is always a great choice, and as is usual with any good pub will let you try any to help you make your decision. Food isn't too bad but not the main reason to come here, there's plenty of better places in Leeds if that's your priority. Lots of space here, so good for large groups and there's also an outside area on the street too.

Due to its city centre location, this easily one of the most expensive bars to buy craft ales in (£7+ for Neck Oil) but it does have a great beer selection. Two shuffle boards and a pinball table around the back. Some excellent people watching tables over looking Park Row and some outdoor seating too. A good place to drink if you've got deep pockets.

A big bar with lots of seating and a very good selection of quality ales and lagers . Service is fast and efficient . Loud music can be rather overwhelming but Friday at 17.30 the place was very busy so obviously the music wasn't putting people off . We had pizzas which were average prices quite generous in size but very average in quality . You get what you pay for . The pizzas are way off the quality of those at Leeds Tapped our usual go to ; but no seats there at all . 4 stars given ( but nearer 3 than five stars) .
