Bars in leeds to watch Barca away

[howie_lfc]

I am in leeds this week for my sins....so does anyone know of any decent boozers where I can watch the 5 time European cup winners take on the 2 time European Cup winners?

[Jay M]

Sports Cafe, that's where I'm heading anyway.

[Bigal]

Walkabout, Hogshead all decent enough.

 

There wont be any bother in leeds, Headingly is pretty sweet too, skyrack or the original oak

[Leo No.8]

I went to Uni in Leeds - Headingley is your best bet as it's a much more relaxed atmosphere and you'll be surrounded by tidy student ladies.

 

Don't agree with there not being any bother in the centre - unless you go to the right places Leeds is full of beauts who want to start a fight with anyone not from Leeds mostly, it was like a running battle half the time.

 

The Original Oak is the best footy pub for me, they've got a massive beer garden which is quality in the summer and they have a big screen up then although of course that won't be relevant in February, but it's a big pub on two floors with loads of screens anyway.

 

The Skyrack and Headingley Taps are other good options and all are in fairly close proximity so you can have a look in them all and see which one you fancy...

sportscafe would be your best bet. great atmosphere plus its right in the centre of town. allow you to do a little pre-match warmup in the city centre too. take care.

Was in the Walkabout the weekend Leeds were relegated a few years back, I think it was Bolton who turned them over, but the locals were fantastic. We slaughtered them all day and they took it very well.

TV's at every possible angle.

A fine selection of wines are available at my house

Bodington Hall bar for me, unless theres a group of you t***s going somewhere better.

Aaah, the memories! Go WHEWELL!!

I went to TASC University College just outside Leeds.

 

We only had about a 10th of the students Leeds Uni and Leeds Met had but we turned em both over at footy...

[Guest Banjo]

If you're in the City Centre, then Sports Cafe.

 

Atmosphere at the SkyRack in Headingly will be a million times better though.

I was in Bodington aeons ago. It must be even grimmer now.

[howie_lfc]

Big city living eh?

depends what you mean by grim.

[howie_lfc]

well then...I went to the sports bar last night and was very disappointed....music blarring out right up to kick off and even during the 1st five minutes of the second half.....the sound was terrible as well....All the tools at their disposal to be a great bar but run by morons....I reckon the walk about is the bar of choice for tonight....is there not any small bars with tv's in Leeds?

[Bigal]

original oak.

 

go there.

 

Now.

 

run.

Woodie's Ale House. Quality. Further up the Otley Road from Headingley, away from the town centre.
