Description:
Shears Yard is an independent kitchen, bar and event space in The Calls, serving modern, seasonal food in a relaxed but polished setting.

Good for:
Seasonal dining · Date nights · Cocktails · Wine · Sunday lunch · Private events · Smart dinners · Relaxed celebrations · Leeds food lovers · Anyone who wants a restaurant that feels special without getting stiff about it

Nearby:
The Calls · Leeds Corn Exchange · Call Lane · Leeds Minster · Kirkgate Market · Brewery Wharf · River Aire · Victoria Quarter · Briggate

Make a Day of It:
Start with a wander around Leeds Corn Exchange and Kirkgate Market, then head down towards The Calls for drinks and dinner at Shears Yard. If you are making a proper evening of it, carry on towards Call Lane after food, although Shears Yard is the sort of place where “just dinner” can easily turn into a full night.

The Tidy Take:
Shears Yard is one of Leeds’ sharper dining spots, independent, stylish and full of that converted-building charm The Calls does so well. Great for dates, celebrations, cocktails and anyone who wants food that feels grown-up without acting like it has never eaten chips.
