Our favourite Park it connects to Meanwood Park through a great series of woody tracks in an aboretum fantasy-like world - was a Victorian mansion family who bequeathed the whole thing to Leeds City Council.

Food Scene
Its just great food and you can take your own booze in free! Can't fault it and resonably priced - sits next to a fancy hipster style resturant (Heaney and Mill) I know which I'd prefer. Book as it's always full.

If you read up about Salvos you'll find out how popular it is, it's grown into almost celebrity status. Local italian family setup so expect Yorkshire Italiana accents! To be honest it is just too popular and busy and for me it's undoing I'd rather go to Salvos Salumeria cafe next door for a snack and coffee.

Drinks & Nightlife
Loads of different ales come and go, they'll give you tasters so if you're like me and a little confused about the difference between a Cereal Killer and Hop Rocket you can sup on a few to get your bearings! No music or machines or student pub -crawls aloud in so just drink and talk and maybe stagger back up the road to ours....

Been to some DJ stuff and its been brilliant - I love it because its very grungy reminds me of the 70's before everything was gentrified and v cheap drinks with a side-venue if you want to try out music. Open v late.

Why not pop over to Otley on a Friday market day. Bustling street market, pubs, cafes - I heartily recommend wandering up to Bloomfield Square for excellent coffee and cake or a fine lunch - on the site of an old printing press.
