Stylish £3m Leeds rooftop bar crowned one of the best in Europe - and it only opened three months ago

A stylish Leeds bar and restaurant which serves refreshing cocktails and delicious food has been named as one of the best rooftop bars in Europe.

The Green Room in Wellington Street opened earlier this year and has already proven incredibly popular with city folk and visitors alike. On the menu are tasty plant-based breakfasts, brunches and lunch options by award-winning vegan café Grön and ethically sourced specialty coffee.

The Green Room also serves numerous craft beers and ales from award-winning local breweries including Northern Monk, Kirkstall Brewery and Magic Rock as well as a selection of cocktails ranging from a watermelon mojito to a North Star espresso martini.

Travel site Big 7 Travel has now named The Green Room one of the best rooftop bars in Europe for 2022. Listed amongst venues in Italy, Switzerland and Turkey, the Leeds bar came 49th based on online reviews, media coverage as well as views, design and drinks list.

On their website, travel writers said: "Not just one of the best rooftop bars in Europe, The Green Room is also one of the newest rooftop bars on the scene.

"Billed as the city’s largest open-air roof terrace, this £3 million venue is set right next to the new Channel 4 HQ and offers a vegan-friendly restaurant, speciality summer spritz menus, and brilliant brewed craft beers."

The Green Room is located at 36 Wellington Street, Leeds, LS1 2DE. Its opening hours are Sunday to Wednesday from 10am to midnight, Friday from 10am to 1am and Saturday from 10am to 2am.

There is ramp access at the front of the building to the ground floor social space and bar and a disabled access toilet at the back of the space. Unfortunately there is no step-free access to the terrace.
