Crowd of Favours
Alice Hiley
Situated just off Kirkgate and next to the famous Leeds Markets, Crowd of Favours is a relaxed, welcoming restaurant and pub. Enjoy a vast selection of beers and spirits, an excellent wine list and a locally sourced, freshly prepared menu.
You’re guaranteed a hearty meal at Crowd of Favours, from chip shop favourites like fish and chips and scampi to mountainous burgers, traditional pies and renowned Sunday roasts, cooked to perfection using the best Yorkshire ingredients. There’s also four changing cask ales and craft keg beers, plus gins, wines, bar snacks and sharing platters to tantalise your tastebuds.
The traditional interior, with its exposed brick and snug furnishings, is complemented by displays from local painters, illustrators and designers, including a regularly changing wall installation. The laid back atmosphere at Crowd of Favours encourages you to kick your feet up; cosy up in an armchair by the fire and pick up a board game or book from the miniature library to while away a rainy afternoon. If you’d prefer to soak up the sun there’s a small beer garden around the back for summer evenings.
Head to Crowd of Favours for the competitive Sunday quiz night, the Little Picture House cinema club on the last Tuesday of the month and live music by talented local artists on a Friday night.
Crowd of Favours is part of the Leeds Brewery group, with a repertoire of popular pubs including the Lamb & Flag on Church Row, The Brewery Tap on New Station Street and Fossgate Tap in York.
The pub has a number of areas suitable for private hire, and can accommodate groups of all sizes; you can buy your own cask of beer and even make use of the basement cinema to make your gathering or party one to remember.
