Lazy Lounge — Restaurant in Leeds

Among my favourite bars in Leeds. I usually judge a pub/bar on two fronts: can I sit there quietly with a book and enjoy myself during the day, and does it have a good atmosphere at night.

A bar lives and dies by the booze it has on offer, and the pricing of the booze. When Aspall is the default cider that you have on tap you're off to a good start. Making the pint £3 is even better as I often find myself paying more for a worse pint in other locations.

During the day there are few things I like more than sitting in the Lazy Lounge with a pint of Aspall, sitting on their sofas with a good book. I just wish I had more time to do this frequently.

It's a small place so it can get very busy very quickly on an evening, but the key thing is that it is on the outskirts of the centre. If this was bang in the middle the size would be a problem.

It's got a wonderful selection of gins and whiskeys from around the world. I rarely sample the gin section, but I've had a lot of the whiskeys on offer and the staff seem to know which one to recommend to you depending on what you ordered last.

Very lovely bar, will make sure to keep looking for excuses to meet...

Come here for amazing drinks and cocktails!

I went to Las Iguanas the other week for cocktails and got served watery, sugar drinks -complete rip off!.... For the SAME price - went to Lazy Lounge today and not only got cocktails WORTH the money (in alcohol content), but were super tasty, bespoke and not overly syrupy and sugary.

What I love about Lazy Lounge is they put a lot of thought and love into their cocktails which always suit the season.

It's a bit hidden away behind scaffolding at the moment but is still open and makes the best drinks - something for everyone! Whether that be wine, gin, whisky or cocktails.

I believe they plan to bring food back to the place later this year hence why I was not able to give 5* for food - they simply haven't served food here for a year or 2 (not sure why Google is still asking for food ratings and not drinks).

They do happy hour also for anyone wanting a good deal. Service is always great also!

Oh and the cherry on the cake - dog friendly! The amount of times I've finished work and wanted to bring my dog for a drink so they're not on their own for...

Lazy Lounge is a lovely venue. It's a bar with a modest amount of seating and attracts a tasteful crowd. There's plenty of seating upstairs but this is often booked out for functions. It can get pretty busy on a Friday evening after five but if you can get a seat, it's worth a visit. There's also seating out the front where you can drink if the weather is suitable. Food here is decent as well but this isn't a restaurant. There's several restaurants, hotels and convenience stores nearby. The location is perfect for people that work bear Park Square; great for a cheeky drink after work! Staff are good and not overbearing. The thing that sets Lazy Lounge apart though, is lazy hour, the prices are crazy good. Give it a try on a weeknight after five; it's relatively quiet then and you won't regret it. Next door is the Postal Service; also...
