If you fancy one of the finest Leeds Dock restaurants, sail over to The Canary Bar. This is a great shout for a banging burger and cute catch-up, as it boasts lots of space on the modern decked terrace, plus plenty of cosy booths inside.
Fearns at Leeds Dock serves fresh and fun food with tons of flair. Whether you're craving a killer brunch, a mouthwatering dinner, or some tasty snacks and sweets, they've got you covered. Their menu caters to all kinds of diets, featuring plenty of plant-based, veggie, and vegan options. Plus, they've got a stellar lineup of wines, spirits, and local brews to pair perfectly with any meal.
When it comes to Granary Wharf restaurants, Leeds has some stellar options, but SkyLounge dwarfs them all. Come here for bottomless brunch or put your feet up and soak in the unrivalled panoramic views of our beautiful city.
Canal Club is your prime waterside spot for an afternoon meet that turns into 8pm shots. With vibrant interiors showcasing strong Miami vibes, this is a lively hub where the gang can enjoy breakfast, brunch and dinner.
It's a case of sun's out, Guinness out, when it comes to Aire Bar. This iconic pub is famed for its ale selection and beaut riverside backdrop. But during the summer, you'll have to be sharp to nab a spot, as the terrace is very popular among pint lovers.
