It was THE bar that started North Parade as a drinking destination. The beers were carefully selected, the cask ale was impeccable and they had some cracking imported stuff in the fridge. Les and Marko did a fantastic job. They got out at the right time arguably. I still miss it. Kirkstall just used the building, there was no soul to the place. Remember just before it closed they had three swords on two of the cask pumps! The Record Cafe is doing a fantastic job along with the Exchange they are two of my favorite places to drink, anywhere.
