The Stone Roses Bar in Leeds

Door staff aggressive, abusive and looking for trouble. They seem to be up for a fight

Bouncers think they are above the law.

First night in Leeds after a 3 hour commute from London, quality night out. Doorstaff were friendly and extremely professional and the bar staff were top tier especially Jack. I wish to say Jack, Lara, Louis and Kian are an absolute credit to your team and definitely make the experience so much so much. Unsure when I’ll next be in Leeds but when I am I will definitely be visiting the stone roses again. 10/10 service and 100% a great night I would highly recommend.

Great music, indie and if your from the 90s the music you grew up to was great to listen to in a club environment. Really busy and so you were up close with everyone but it's all part of it and everyone was in a great mood and enjoying themselves.

Friendly atmosphere. Excellent service

Music absolutely top tier, great bouncers too

Horrible bouncers, I was dancing with my arms out to my side to stop people pushing into my friends and was aggressively told by security that I was causing problems and needed to stop. Later spoke to the manager and was told I was being dramatic and only felt upset because I was drunk. Horrible experience wouldn’t recommend, never known the manager of an establishment to gaslight so hard

Sadly couldn’t get in after queuing to then find out it’s not wheelchair accessible despite advertising it is the security guy was nice but could of saved me queuing by just telling me straight away so for any wheelchair users there’s a step to get in and then the toilets are upstairs as well

Great place to end the night 🙂. Great music and good atmosphere

It was lovely oo the sound security guard his been safe since I was on game in town

First time going out in Leeds, tried out the stone roses bar. Bouncer named “Rich” wouldn’t let me and 3 of my mates in as we “wouldn’t understand the music”. Pretty poor excuse…? Won’t be going again👍🏽

The bouncer called Rich was letting everyone in who were in front of us which there must of been about 30 people. When it came to me and my friend the bouncer would not let us in, we asked him why and he said that “we wouldn’t understand the music” as we are Kurdish. I have been in the UK 29 years and have never experience anything like it.

Bouncer wouldn’t let my Kurdish pals in because they ‘wouldn’t understand the music’

Very rude staff and an extremely aggy manager. Insinuated I wasn’t telling the truth about the tonic being flat in my drink and wouldn’t do anything about it. If a customer isn’t happy with their drink then you make another one and try to rectify the issue. Instead I was told, and I quote - “the only way you can have another drink is to pay full price for a new one.” Your staff need to cheer up and make better drinks. Won’t ever be coming back and can see from a number of 1 star reviews on here that this is a common and recurring issue.

Edgy atmosphere, not my cup of tea to be fair. Saw a chap minding his own business at the bar get manhandled and chucked out by a bouncer because it looked like he had been sick on the floor. It wasn't him. Won't hurry back.

The place is a disgrace, I was viciously assaulted outside the bar in front of several people after a bouncer decided to knock some poor guy out minding his own business.. right outside the front door. I went to help the guy and three bouncers jumped on me to restrain me even though I’d done nothing.. I was walked around the corner, laid facing down in police handcuffs and then I was strangled to the point of near death. Police were there and left me to be assaulted.. I didn’t no what was going on I was vulnerable clearly in that situation obviously because you lot have the power to assault people day to day. You all have a duty of care and you all stood there and watched me be assaulted and removed from town/my night out. Let me just say people Avoid this shocking establishment Your not safe, no one is looking out for your welfare and the place is a sticky sweaty dive.. The bouncer that did it Why don’t you come to mine and try strangle me?? Coz you wouldn’t you coward. Ladies watch yourselves going to this place… you are not safe. All doorman we’re watching this happen to me and did nothing but smile laugh and humiliate me.. Shutting it down Would be the best thing for it. Take my review seriously people it’s the truth and your are not safe to enjoy yourselves.. COWARDS 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 PS I don’t who’s actually wrote these reviews but I believe they are false ones. It needs shutting down.

Great bar with good music. Very friendly staff and laid back door staff.

went to stone roses last night after indie Thursdays and it was great, bar staff were polite and Louis was lovely. Il definitely be back next week!!!!

Great atmosphere and actually some of the friendliest bouncers I've encountered. Would recommend if you are after this genre - no point getting in till after midnight

I'm not sure what to make of this place yet only been once. The staff need to smile more that's for sure and the atmosphere I dont know it felt edgy!

Found this gem in the city centre. A brilliant venue. Great music and wonderful atmosphere in there.

Awesome. Had really been looking forward to visiting whilst in Leeds. Obviously the music was the best. The atmosphere was fun and staff great. Loved it

If I loved this place more I'd have to marry it. Where to start, amazing music non stop bangers all night and a great variety of indie and rock that spreads over several decades so there's music for everyone. Class opening hours meaning you can dance until the sun comes up. A great atmosphere and there's never any trouble. And last but not least the staff are top class. From Rich the bouncer, to the bar staff and management, all of them are a class act and nothing is ever too much bother. Left my bag last night with all my work stuff in and sent an email off and they got back to me later that day and we have arranged when I can pick it up even though it's not while they're open, they're happy for me to collect it on that day. Saved my life, my weekend and most likely my job. Can't speak higher of this great bar and the fantastic people who make it great. Best bar in Leeds by a mile!

Bar staff kept taking drinks when they weren’t finished. After the third time they did it I complained and got thrown out.

Tune after god damn tune, only place id go if I lived in leeds

Was quiet upon arrival for pre-drinks, served right away away with no issues

Fabulous venue, music 🎶 amazing 👏

what a crazy night really excited for the next weekend

Horrible place! They serve drinks which taste like water from swimming pool, don't want to replace for fresh drinks and "Manager" doesn't want to discuss to Customers if they are disappointed of service Pathetic - don't recommend it!

Last place to shut on a night out, you dont go because its pleasant.

Loved it, highly recommend to anyone who loves their indie.

Good time had with some old friends, all a good atmosphere, and banging night

Great bar, different to the other places that surround it. Love the 90s/early 00s music they play, Stone Roses, Oasis, Blur, Gorillaz, Mondays etc really personify the venue. However I would suggest having a better strategic approach to the music - changing from genre to genre every other song can be annoying. Drinks aren't super expensive either, all in all worth it for a night out if you want something a little different.

OMG! This place is wicked. Totally different to the Stone Roses bar in York, but if you like great music, sweat, sore ears, packed dancefloor to Britpop (this is a bit unfair to the DJ) and staying up most of the night boogieing to bangers - this place is for you! Entry is cash only, but they take card at the bar. Also - check the opening times......

From what I remember of it, it was a lot of fun! 👍

The crowd was loving the music, only gripe I paid £5.50 for a pint of moretti that taste like piss.

Way to busy on a Saturday, took 30 minutes to get a drink and the fuy who served me looked like he was trying to ward me off using misery as a tactic.

So busy on a Saturday night. It opens later than other clubs so is absolutely packed, so if that's not your thing I wouldn't recommend! If it is then you'll be fine. You also have to pay £5 entry fee in cash on the door.

Best place in town to just have a great night and dance

Best bar in Leeds...and York come to think of it

If your in to the indie music scene it's the place to when in Leeds don't expect to much in deco but makes up for it with the music and drinks not over priced

Not my type of place. Can only enjoy it if i cant see at 4am when everywhere closes. People in there seem to love it but not my vibe. It is a goood atmosphere but i dont like that Indie music,

I love this place, not been for a while and went Saturday, still knocking out brilliant tunes, friendly atmosphere, decent price for drinks, and all the staff were bang on. Can’t wait to get back there.

It's alright, like one o' the bouncers. The other one's a scary un...

Interesting bar to be honest, we paid £5 for entry. As soon as you walk in, there is a bar right in front of you then there is a like a stage to your left or might like a dance floor. It was packed with people enjoying them selves. Music was not my kinder music but when the dj played songs I recognised I was on the dancing. Service at the bar was reasonable, I don’t really like the small plastic glasses you get given. It’s like your drinking an adults drink in a child cup

Is what's it says on the tin....Enjoyed music and drinks.

I saw a poor person who got groped only for your staff to laugh and serve the person who groped them? Extremely poor form

absolute misogynistic bouncers don’t go in there

Safe, cheap, great vibe great tunes great people

Overcrowded, cash only entrance fee

Good place which is open untill early morning and has good music and booze. Staffs are gems.

Reyt indie bar, doesn't get much better than this !!!

What’s brilliant bar! Love every second!

Bit of a sweaty place ok if you are 18 and like mosh pits

My favourite bar in the whole of the UK, never fails to make my night

Was a good night, parts of the club smelt questionably though

The place stinks and is always overcrowded...

Absolute cracking place ,reasonable priced drinks and excellent music and the doormen are gentlemen fav place in Leeds for me

Simply love this place! Dancing the night away to my favourite tunes... It can't be beaten.

It's a great atmosphere and very fun but I think the staff need to me more considerate of peoples mental illnesses. I told the woman at the door that I couldn't have the stamp on my right arm as I have ocd and she refused and spoke to me as if I were stupid which didn't start my night off well.

Great place to enjoy late into the night, fantastic staff 👍

Mega night , brilliant atmosphere, no trouble everyone happy

Absolutly love this place, the staff are all lovely especially the door staff. Never felt more at home in a club!

Don’t remember being here, but I woke up with a stamp 😂

I visited this place in 2018. They are charlatans to music. I asked the DJ to play The Verve and the DJ replied that he couldn't because they're "too depressing". I replied and asked for "Lucky Man" and the DJ said "No, sorry". 5 minutes later he's playing Scouting for Girls. I'd heard good things about this place, but there's nothing indie about it.

5 quid to get in and stand still like a sardine

Take it for what it is, decent music, always a laugh.

Cramped but good music and great night out

Always good vibes in this place, great music, cheap drinks & friendly staff. Big thanks to Sophie, Richard, Craig & the team as I left my coat (and car keys...) here last week, they very kindly looked after it until I was able to return to Leeds & collect it the following week, legends, thank you very much :)

A total dive. Dance floor was absolutely rammed and myself and my friend got repeatedly groped. Went once and would not go again.

Banging tunes and the doorman is a legend

My favourite place on earth. It's loud and sweaty and I love it

Absolutely rocks, good staff and reasonable price for drinks and entry, the music and atmosphere is unlike anything else in Leeds.

Great music, cheap drinks and an awesome atmosphere!

Excellent night life I know owner that's if hes still there

Best bar in town with the best music

Not too bad not too great too music could be better

Never try the outdoor security is very racist he doesn’t let any other background except english guys in He is a bald and fat guy

Music is ok, but they seem to play the same bands slot, red stripe and hooch in cans, so not amazing drink!

No sign of any of the band checked twice now.

Great atmosphere and indie music

Great bar with such a good atmosphere. Will be returning shortly ☺️

Best place to go at 2pm that has drinks. Music is great. There is nothing quite like 100 or so people belting out Mr Brightside. Naturally the toilets are pretty grim.

So good, top tunes and friendly - open right through 😄

Top night, top tunes, quick service at the bar, top staff

Great music on all night, served quite quick considering how jam packed it was! Yes people moan about a sticky floor but when you and jumping around to music people are going to drop drinks. Also the toilet doors are top on the design front.

Who doesn't like a dark, dingy and slightly sticky indie/rock bar? The music hit my genre perfectly, Arctic Monkeys - Oasis - Wombats - The Strokes - The Cure - Blur and of course The Stone Roses. And that only names a few! All staff were friendly, from the bouncers all the way through, drinks weren't too expensive. There's something special about a can or red stripe and a heavy base song

This is a goo rock dive bar. Plays good music, slightly sticky floor and stays open late. Only downside is bath room attender, these are very annoying in clubs. I just want to go, wash my hands and leave, they make this I annoying experience.

Music is often good (90's classics) but a really gropey atmosphere (old straight white men) and not somewhere myself or my wife feel particularly safe. Drinks are certainly cheaper than QC or Fibe

Epic atmosphere, amazing location and drink prices are on point!

Good place to be after most bars close but you need to be a fan of non charts. It is one of the few places open after 4am but be prepared to share your personal space with strangers (very very very close range)

It's a good place for a night out with friends

Loved the place deffo going back

Cool place to chill out, amazing staff all round from bouncers to bar staff always welcoming and always friendly. Rock n jump the night away with legendary artists doing live shows and the DJ is the best in Yorkshire. Come down join in the fun

Got charged a fiver on the door and all my group paid less.

Lots of dry ice and sticky floors. A classic club

Grunge music, grunge on the floor

This place should not work....but it does ...it stinks!...it's dated!...it's dirty ...but it ROCKS!!!....I was subjected to dancing to familiar indie songs played in a way I've never heard before ...in an atmosphere you have to experience. ...wearing white is a no-no! ....more slick women with tattoos then men! ...oh and the doorman set a presidence for leeds. ...specially the doorman front of house with his wwf save the panda badge on ! ...defo need shower after experience. . ...see you next time lucky leeds !!

Ok, I went once as it was the only place open . It Was overly packed and I got groped many times within my time trying to find my friends. Some guy then started a fist fight next to me and it took a while for security to stop it because of the amount of people. The security guard then witnessed the guy trying to grope me and rip my clothes and he did nothing about it. Do not go unless you want to be attacked basically

Dark, moody and full of Indie and alternative rock: excellent!
