Tailors - The Perfect Measure

Tailors shop by day, illustrious gin bar by night - the 20s are back, and the speakeasy is open! Offering the perfect measure in both men’s fashion styling and bespoke gin, Tailors, is a concept store with a difference. A decadent 1920’s gin bar, with frivolities, costume rails and jazz on the gramophone - This is a gin bar with a difference!

Leeds Playhouse

Reviewed By richardhE6113OT - England, United Kingdom

I travelled a long way to Leeds Playhouse because I wanted to see Pride and Prejudice (sort of...). I was not disappointed. The show was superb and the venue was great too. We arrived early and used the convenient parking just over the road in the John Lewis car park. We then enjoyed some great food in the restaurant before taking our seats. The staff were helpful and friendly throughout. I hope I’ll be able to visit Leeds Playhouse again soon.

Went to premiere night in Leeds. Great seats on row E with a great view of stage. Kay Mellor has written another stunning adaptation for stage of one of her tv shows. Language is fruity, strong adult themes throughout but it has you gripped all the way through. Applause to a great cast who brought this great show to life. A must see.....

The Domino Club

An underground bar with live Jazz, Blues, Funk and Soul serving exceptional drinks. Hidden behind Lord's Barbering in The Grand Arcade Leeds.

Reviewed By ReviverNo2

Easily one of the best bars in Leeds. Live music every night they're open which never disappoints. Fantastic cosy booths with table service & sitting at the bar leaves you astounded with the sheer knowledge and skill of the staff. The menu is expansive and interesting leaving you spoilt for choice. Really great to see some classic cocktails on the menu with a particular favourite being the Jungle Bird - A must have if you're a lover of Campari & Tiki. Paying for entry on weekends has always felt worth it but definitely advisable to get there early if you're looking for a table!

I saw The Marriage of Figaro, sung in English, performed by Opera North. The performance was full of wit and character, the performers were engaging and fun to watch. The theatre has been beautifully refurbished and is a pleasure to sit in.
