Weekend in Leeds

[cakesandphotos]

Just booked for DH and I to go to Leeds for our anniversary. I was a student there for 3 years but only really did student stuff (and a LOT of shopping!)
What are the must do things for Leeds? We’re there Friday to Monday

The art gallery is closed at the moment but reopening in a couple of weeks so you might get in there. Decent theatres if anything grabs your fancy and you can get tickets. If you like music then there's a few indie venues around. Great bars. Trinity shopping centre is nice and has a street foody area.

Saltaire is amazing. There was a good 'street food' type thing in a shopping centre when we were there, but have forgotten the details.

Rolands bar for cocktails, if it's still there.

Ooh yes, Salts Mill and Saltaire. Definitely worth a visit.

Loads of great restaurants. Iberica is my favourite.
Take train to Saltaire...less than 20 mins

In the city centre:

Eat street food at the market
The beautiful Victorian arcades
Corn Exchange
Leeds art gallery
Henry Moore Institute
Royal Armouries museum - I admit that it didn't really interest me

Further out:
Thackray medical museum - I highly recommend it
Kirkstall Abbey and Abbey House museum
Roundhay Park
Leeds Industrial museum
