You would be forgiven for thinking that Headingley’s most famous for its Cricket and Rugby grounds, but you'd be wrong! With a huge variety of pubs, coffee shops and restaurants, Headingley is a haven for students. It‘s a lively town with a 24/7 buzz! It’s no wonder why students from the nearby University of Leeds, Leeds Metropolitan University and Trinity and All Saints, find Headingley such an attractive prospect for three fun-filled years of Uni life!
It seems like a new pub or bar opens every year in Headingley. To date there's about a dozen pubs/ bars in the Headingley area. If you’re looking for a quiet place to settle down - Headingley is not it! The most notable of all Headingley’s pubs are The Skyrack and The Original Oak. The Original Oak has been a favourite haunt of students and young people living in Headingley for as long as anyone can remember. It is the perfect place to go to watch sports events and in the summer the huge beer garden is the perfect place to do a bit of sun worshiping while enjoying a good pint!
Students in Leeds and Headingley are famous for the Premier League of all beer crawls - The Otley Run. Spanning the full distance from Far Headingley to Leeds City Centre, The Otley Run is something of legends. People argue over the ‘proper’ way to do an Otley Run, but with anything from 10-20 different pubs and a drink in each one, even if you do complete the full Otley Run, you’re guaranteed not to remember.
If your interests are something a little more sober, then Headingley offers an impressive variety of top notch restaurants and stylish bars. If you like Thai - try Jino’s, Indian - Tariq’s, Italian - Salvo’s, Greek - The Olive Tree…
