NATION OF SHOPKEEPERS REVIEWS
Had a strawberry daiquiri and a mock tail both were amazing. Then had the boneless chicken strips chips gravy and onion things they were also amazing. And chocolate brownie for pud me and my friend were both really happy with food and service would 100% go again and good price as well worth every penny great quality.
First ones in so all quiet, but a lovely friendly welcome, and plenty of choice when it comes to food and drink. Bold and interesting place and has an impressive beer garden for days when the sun is shining.
The Big Cow Burger was sooooo peng! Packed with juicy pulled brisket and a great chunky beef patty which had a lovely charred edge. There was a nice added crunch from the tobacco onions.

WHITELOCK'S ALE HOUSE REVIEWS
Very pleasant traditional pub, apparently the oldest in Leeds. First licences in 1715. Lovely food. We had the haddock and chips plus a Nut roast. Both very good. They served a tasty Guinness too.
Didn't eat here, just had a drink. Very vibrant busy pub. Staff friendly and helpful. Went to reminisce as we used to go a lot when we were courting. Not disappointed, hasn't changed. Lovely old style pub, still having its lovely ornate decoration. This is impressive , well worth a visit.
This was a fantastic pub to go drinking at, with a throwback design! The counter is well-presented, staff were friendly and I enjoyed a pint of Strongbow Dark Fruit Cider at comfortable seating.

THE BREWERY TAP REVIEWS
Possibly the best Burger i've ever had. Amazing!!! The naked chips were crispy and perfectly salted. The cheese sauce was delicious. And washed it down with a Raspberry IPA which was really nice. Amazing food. I would highly recommend.
Great burgers and the loaded fries were amazing! We got a sharing one and it was huge. Really chilled out atmosphere too (considering how close to the centre and station it is).
Went here on the recommendations of a friend. Main food served is multiple layered burgers and they are sensational. As it is pretty close to Five Guys one could make an interesting comparison between the two and I would say that this place is well worth the visit as the quality and flavour of the burgers is spot on.
