The Grove Inn

At this traditional pub, you can savour the charm of classic English fare with a focus on hearty comfort food. The menu features a selection of pub standards, including robust pork pies that offer a satisfying, flaky crust filled with rich, savoury meat. Sandwiches, such as the ham and mustard variety, present a simple yet nostalgic option, perfect for a quick bite.

While the offerings may not cater extensively to dietary restrictions, the emphasis on authentic, no-frills pub grub encapsulates the essence of this old boozer.

With a focus on quality and variety, this charming pub boasts an impressive selection of real ales, featuring around 8-10 hand-pulled options that highlight local and craft breweries. You can expect well-kept traditional cask ales, with favourites often rotating to keep things fresh.

For those who prefer something different, there is also a choice of fine whiskies and refreshing Prosecco available.

Non-alcoholic alternatives are available, ensuring everyone can find something to enjoy.

The interior unfolds with rustic charm, featuring rich wooden panelling and vintage décor that evokes nostalgia. Each room tells its own story, with cosy nooks creating intimate spaces for conversation, while a larger area transforms into a lively music venue.

Plush emerald-green bar stools surround polished copper-topped tables. Notably, you’ll clock an antique piano, artfully repurposed as a planter, serves as a striking focal point, surrounded by exposed brick walls that add character.

Outside, the patio area, with wooden tables and benches – makes for a good spot to drink and catch-up on warmer days.

Nestled in the vibrant Holbeck district, this pub is a hidden gem located near the River Aire. Surrounded by a fascinating mix of historic architecture and modern developments, the area retains its unique character, offering a glimpse into Leeds’ rich past while embracing contemporary changes.
