Please read this review before going to Jake's Bar. There is a serious issue with staff here and the management do not care at all / are completely unwilling to do anything about the way their staff are acting.
A summary of my experience of Jake's Bar: After leaving the bar my friend's sister realized her mobile was missing. My friend asked a bouncer if they could go back in to find it and was given the OK. As he went to walk in, another bouncer grabbed him by the hair and threw him back. The bouncer then launched into a tirade of abused at my friend including calling him a "simple Irish c*nt". He tried to explain the mix up, but the bouncer was completely unwilling to listen. At this point the bouncer then followed my friend down the street, shoved him and hit him around the face twice. When I politely tried to diffuse the situation, I was also threatened "this is between me and him, if you say another word I'll mash your face in" (by the same bouncer).
When I asked two other bouncers if they would help by stepping in, they refused saying "he does what he likes" and "no point". The bouncer only moved away when someone else on the street threatened to call the police on him. The other bouncers refused to give me his name, my emails to the the bar have been ignored and the voicemails I've left (as nobody answers the phone!) have all gone unanswered. DO...
Read moreI have visited Jake Bar for over 19years of my life. True Leeds lass me! But lastnight, while on my work do and completely separated from my friends after losing my phone and trying to get home.

What if I was one of those so called students lastnight, alone and vulnerable???!!! What happened to a protective service and watchful eye?! Many things can go wrong for women on nights out and they left me hung, in the rain! T*s in my opinion. They will claim I was pissed…… I will invite further reviews from my managing surveyor company on my behalf. (I left to get home to my kids!) Cheers for the great Xmas do Jakes! Signing out - Single mum who never gets out much! You’ve evolved in leaps and bounds over the years!!!! Great work force! Ha Ps. My old pal (bouncer) for 20yrs on the door of space, called me a cab and bought me a drink until it turned up 50mins later!!!! (That was a strictly student night only)!! Sack your bouncers they are misogynistic bullies!!! In my...

I go out all the time and never have any issues but in truly traumatised attended this venue venue as was a assaulted by the bouncer, punched in the face for no reason without aggression whatsoever, I honestly didn’t even think things like this could even happen.
