Adelphi Hotel

The Adelphi is an absolute gem! It’s a grade II-​listed late Victorian building packed with charming features.
On entrance there’s a lobby area with two rooms off to the right, stairs upstairs (apparently a former ballroom but it was closed for a function so we couldn’t see) and access to the bar. There’s also two further rooms to the left, each with access to the bar.
The beer options are good — couple of local ones on keg and cask as well as some from further afield.
The pub also does food but we didn’t have any even though the menu sounded amazing.
Although it’s a large venue, it does get very busy. We were there about 4pm on a Saturday and lots of people were standing in the lobby area.
Overall, a gorgeous building with good beer at decent prices and well worth a visit.

Just outside Leeds city centre, the Adelphi is housed in a lovely, imposing Victorian building. Inside it looks just as good, with three rooms of comfortable seating around a central bar providing a wide selection of beers and ciders. The Adelphi attracts a mixed crowd, with many of its clientele in their late-​20s/​30s; people whose clubbing days might be ending but who still enjoy a regular night out. The Adelphi caters excellently for this: downstairs, the soundtrack consists of new indie and alternative tunes mixed with classics, while upstairs there’s a 100-​capacity room which plays host to live music, comedy acts and DJs. It’s a very popular post-​work hangout and its popularity is proven by the fact that it’s always, but always, jam-​packed on Friday nights.

This is the nearest pub to my work, nice co-​incidence. It’s also a great pub. Lovely décor and atmosphere, great selection of beers and wines and pretty good food. Yes, it can very busy in the evenings, and at lunchtimes if you don’t get your order in early you can be waiting a while.
A group of us went last Friday and ordered some sandwiches and beer. The food arrived and the barstaff mistakenly gave my pastrami sandwich to Gaz who had ordered ham. Gaz didn’t notice the difference and scoffed it. When my sarnie didn’t arrive, the staff said «oh sorry, my fault i thought it was ham» and speedily got me a replacement. Great service from a great pub.

I’ve been dragged along from work a few times. If you like to be stood 3 deep at the bar waiting 15 mins to get served by very unfriendly looking staff then this is the place for you. I’ve eaten twice here and the food was very poor and cold. Its dingy, old fashioned and noisy but it does seem very popular. Heaven knows why !!

Has a brilliant selection of ales and ciders that change on a regular basis. The food selection is small but its all really tasty and well prepared. They do sharing plates which are great if there is a group of you and you all fancy an nibble.
It can get really busy at the weekends but don’t let that put you off going. Its has a great atmosphere. They sometimes put on club nights and comedy nights upstairs in the big room, Luna Jam being my favorite.
Best pub in leeds by a mile!

With its quirky furniture, kooky feature walls, groovy lighting and fine selection of beers, the Adelphi is Leeds’ best kept secret. Situated on one end of Leeds Bridge right next to Tetley’s Brewery, this pub offers a fantastic atmosphere, a great pub quiz every Tuesday, and a hireable upstairs section ideal for private parties. The menu features good old rustic fare as well as snacks and nibbles if you’re feeling that way inclined. It gets pretty busy at weekends, but it’s well worth it!

Great traditional Pub in the Bridge end area of Leeds. Dont be fooled by the drab exterior inside is funky and retro and the clientel are a mix of young professionals and city dwellers. Loads of differnet Draught ales to choose from and they also have big board games to play !!! A great place to meet up with some mates. The food is great and reasonable prices too! And dont miss the heated outside area where you can chill out on big sofas!!!

Gets absolutely RAMMED on a Friday night. Crazily so.
Don’t come here if you like your personal space.
Do come here if you like a proper pint though. And period features and a proper pub atmosphere. Just not on a Friday night.

Great pub for an after work drink although it can get really packed at times. Its good place if you’re wanting to stay away from the wine bar type places in Leeds centre and just have a pint or two with your mates and the staff are all dead nice!

Very rustic hotel. And not in a bad way!
I would thouroughly reccommend their home brews.

Didn’t really frequent the Adelphi enough when I lived in Leeds. It’s a charming period bar split into a couple of rooms, great antique furniture, and always a good spread of ales on. From what a recall, the food wasn’t bad either. Definitely worth a look.

The Adelphi pub is not only a heritage site on account of its proximity to the original Tetley brewery dating back to 1960, but is also a really nice example of late-​Victorian architecture. Found just over the river, the best room in the pub is a spacious, naturally sun-​filled room where even on Sundays there is space to unfurl your legs and sprawl across the long, comfy seats while you wait for your (below par) food — I shared an average dessert and had a really rubbish hot-​chocolate that tasted like water, however the staff were happy to replace it and gave us some free stuff as an apology. Together with the excellent inclusion of wasabi peas to the drinkers’ snack menu, I was just about ready to forgive them.

Good after work drinking place, tried their honey beer and highly recommend. Serve food till late which is handy. Different rooms and lovely outside with heating! Live music and comedy nights upstairs.
