Leeds rooftop bar dubbed 'finest in the city' crowned one of the UK's best in prestigious list

As the weather gradually starts to get better we are all starting to dream of a summer cocktail on a rooftop bar and one one Leeds’ has been named the best in the UK.

We set the indulgent scene of you clenching your thirst of something fruity while enjoying the stunning landscape of Leeds. Well, according to The Rooftop Guide the best to visit in our city is Sky Lounge - based at DoubleTree by Hilton.

The bar is a popular destination in Leeds city centre and ranked second overall on the list of the UK’s best rooftop bars. LSQ Rooftop in London took top spot.

Praising the venue, the Rooftop Guide team said: “Experience Leeds’s finest rooftop bar - the luxurious Sky Lounge, at sunset. With a breath-taking panorama of Yorkshire and the city of Leeds, the 13th floor becomes a true urban escape from the busy streets below.

“Stop by for an early breakfast and enjoy a chilled morning under the UK sun. Save a spot for a bubbly afternoon teas to live music.”

It looks like many of you agree with the shout and have taken to TripAdvisor praising the Sky Lounge. We saw 158lias post: “Attended Sky Lounge for bottomless brunch and greeted with the lovely Rachel M. Nothing was too much trouble and she was very attentive to everything we asked and always made sure our glasses were never empty. Highly recommend a visit.”

Someone who loved the cocktails was k4thy72. They posted: “This place was recommended to me as the place to go for somewhere special with delicious cocktails. Five of us were celebrating my daughter's Graduation yesterday and we were not disappointed. We hadn't booked so took a chance by just turning up and were seated straight away by our friendly waitress. The views were wonderful, as were the cocktails.”
