Our local art house cinema, with its original vintage charm still intact. It's right in the heart of Leeds' most popular student area, so the streets are often a bit messy. Don't let that put you off, though. This little gem is definitely worth a visit!

This little theatre is legendary - most famous for playing host to the long-running Good Old Days TV show. If you're too young to remember, give it a Google! If you're here in late November to early January, try and get a ticket for the annual Rock 'n' Roll panto - always a fun show with a cast of amazing actor-musicians.

Salvo's is our local award-winning Italian. It was voted the UK's best neighbourhood Italian restaurant on Gordon Ramsay's TV show The F Word and it's been in the Dammone family since 1976. Need we say more?

The Hungry Bear
An unexpected gem in Meanwood with great food and wine.
Catch is the new incarnation of the legendary Bryan's chippie in Headingley. Sit in or takeaway, it's not just fish 'n' chips these days either. It's a proper seafood restaurant with fresh catch from just two fishing boats on the east coast of England.

This local favourite is owned by Stewart, who also sells organic fruit and veg and fresh cakes made and delivered daily by local home bakers. It's small inside, but very welcoming... and hugely popular as a result.

Take a walk or a cycle along the canal from Leeds Dock to Thwaite Mill and back, then swing into North Star's Noisette Café for great coffee, cake and fresh local food. If you're lucky, you might bump into Steph from Channel 4's The Steph Show, which is filmed at the Dock.

Neighbourhoods
Headingley is what you might describe as a Bohemian suburb in north Leeds, close to the universities and Headingley Stadium (Leeds' home of all things cricket and rugby). It's popular for its independent cafés and bars and its two olde worlde cinemas - Hyde Park Cinema and Cottage Road Cinema, and there are quite a few second-hand shops that are definitely worth moseying around.

City/town information
The great thing about Leeds is it's big enough to feel like a proper city, but small enough to explore thoroughly in a few days. To say Leeds folk like a good night out is an understatement - there is a vibrant bar and restaurant scene here, with something for every taste and budget. People come from all over the north of England for a day out round the shops, especially the lovely arcades off the main Briggait pedestrian shopping street right in the heart of town.
