Food and drink in Woodhouse

In Woodhouse you’re never too far away from a student-friendly pub serving great pub grub and drinks at affordable prices. The Library pub is a popular student haunt, serving delicious food and hosting all the important sports events on its big screens. This atmospheric pub can be found on the edge of Hyde Park and is perfect for those looking to chill out, nurse a hangover and soak up the laid-back, friendly vibes. What’s more, when your parents call to ask how you’re getting on at uni, you can proudly exclaim that you’re in the library — just not one with librarians and books, but they don’t need to know that!

The Hyde Park pub is a mainstay for students and locals alike — with pool tables, multi-screen Sky Sports, and games machines tempting in the sports fans and leisure drinkers. Watch out for groups of fellow students in hilarious fancy dress outfits, as the famous ‘Otley Run’ takes in the Hyde Park pub before heading towards the universities. Why not get involved?

With a number of lively cafés, pubs and bars, Woodhouse Lane also attracts a large number of students. For example, the award-winning and multi-purpose The Faversham (or ‘The Fav’ as it’s often known) is very popular. This atmospheric pub serves home-cooked food all week long and hosts a variety of special nights throughout the week, too.

If you’re looking for a bite to eat, you could head to the Pickard’s Tea Room. This welcoming café was once Pickard Properties’ office, and the tea room decided to keep the name! The Pickard’s Tea Room offers great coffee and a delicious menu for affordable prices and is a real hit amongst students. Check out the tea room’s great reviews on Trip Advisor.

There are also plenty of friendly and delicious takeaways at your disposal when renting student houses in Woodhouse, including the popular Arkwright’s Fish & Chips takeaway on Johnston Street.

A brief history of Woodhouse

In 1853, author William White described Woodhouse as a “large and handsome village.” During the Second World War, parts of the area were accidentally bombed. In the ensuing years the area has undergone extensive development. Conveniently located for the city centre and the universities, a lot of Woodhouse’s growth has been focused on developing student residential property and creating student house shares. As a result, the area offers a diverse choice for those looking for quality and affordable accommodation for students in Leeds.
