Where to watch the Super Bowl LVII 2023 in Leeds

The 57th annual event is coming to screens across Leeds this month.

Sophie Smith Sophie Smith - 2nd February 2023

It all kicks off on Sunday 12 February- where are you pulling up a seat?

Next Sunday, the annual Super Bowl event in Glendale, Arizona will be streamed around the world and regardless of whether you’re watching for the football or the half-time events, you’ll need somewhere to watch all the action from.

Here in Leeds, we’re pretty passionate about our sports, so much so that last year Leeds United fans were voted as the most supportive in the Premier League. Our excitement for all things sports extends far further than our home team, so naturally when the Super Bowl comes around, we’re going to make a big effort to find a screen to watch it on.

Given its a late night affair, and on a Sunday night, the occasion has called for late permits and extended opening hours to all our favourite bars. So head out, grab yourself a pint and seat and take in the game with like-minded fans at all of these spots in Leeds.

If there’s an event to be excited about, it’s Springwell’s Super Bowl extravaganza. You’ll be well-fed with pulled pork burgers and fries (including vegan alternatives) from Kerbside Kids, there’ll be a whole load of draught pints available and some special American cocktails. Tickets cost just £16 and see the bar open until 3am on Monday morning - but you’ll want to get in there quickly as they’re selling fast.

The Box

Serving food late, it’ll be a go hard or go home kinda late Sunday night at The Box for the Super Bowl. It’s going to be a wild night and you absolutely should book a ticket in advance, this one will be heavily booked up. There’s 16 screens all in glorious high definition as well as shuffleboard, beer pong and late night pizza.

The Library

There’s offers aplenty at The Library, making it one of the best value Super Bowl events in the city. Get into the true American spirit and prebook your seat with Budweiser buckets of 6 – 12 beers, a bottle of Smirnoff or you can keep the beer flowing all night with a beer tower or five litre keg of Brewdog.

Belgrave Music Hall & Canteen

One of the most popular options for the Super Bowl showing has already sold out of its original tickets, but you can add yourself to the waitlist for this year’s Super Bowl shoeing at Belgrave. There’s good reason for the sellout too: the bar will be serving all American beers and Patty Smith burgers all inspired by the US games.

MOJO

Mojo is all about combining shabby New York City dive style chic with great cocktails and music from the last six decades but for one night only, the bar will be showing the Super Bowl in true NYC style. As the bar is usually open until 4am, so the won’t be any yawns behind the bar- but the difference here is that Jack Daniels NFL Cocktails will be on sale.

The Royal Park

As a student-favourite, The Royal Park can be found in Hyde Park serving up inexpensive drinks with all the sporting action live on TV. This classic pub will be serving up pints all night long and offering the chance for you to order Budweisers by the bucket and play a few games of pool if you get bored of the 57th Super Bowl- though we doubt that’ll happen.

Historic family-run Leeds restaurant that’s been open for half a century is forced to close

Clementine Hall Clementine Hall

Beloved Leeds restaurant Salvo's has closed suddenly due to 'unexpected dispute' with landlord.

Salvo's over on Otley Road in Headingley is a real Leeds institution.

Having first opened in 1976, it has been serving generations of families for fifty years with its authentic Italian menu.

The much loved restaurant announced the heartbreaking news to their social media today stating that the unexpected closure is down to an 'unexpected dispute' with their landlord.

The post read: "To our dearest customers, friends, and supporters,

"It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we must share some devastating news. Due to an unexpected dispute with our landlord, we have been forced to close our doors effective immediately.

"This morning, the landlord changed the locks and denied our team access to the premises. This means we are, with immediate effect, unable to honor any existing bookings, provide table service, or welcome you for the dining experience we love to create.

"We want to be unequivocally clear: We have always met our obligations, including rent and all bills. Our dedicated team has worked tirelessly, not just to serve exceptional food, but to build a community within our walls. Through the immense challenges of the hospitality economy, we fought to stay afloat, committed to our staff, our suppliers, and most of all, to you.

"Our hope now is to resolve this matter as quickly as possible. We remain committed to our dream and to serving you again."

The post continued: "From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your incredible support, your laughter that filled our dining room, and your loyalty. It has been our greatest honor to serve you.

"We will update you here as soon as we have more information. Please keep our team in your thoughts."

Cult favourite burger chain Burgerism given green light to open in Leeds suburb

Clementine Hall Clementine Hall

An award-winning burger chain can now open a new branch in a Leeds suburb after plans have been agreed.

If you don't know Burgerism, then get to know.

The Manchester-based burger chain is known by many for its incredible smash patties and quick, reliable service.

Their concept is simple: good burgers made with quality ingredients and cooked fresh to order.

The chain used to have a dark kitchen on the outskirts of the city where people could order via Deliveroo, however this closed down and since then there's been a Burgerism-shaped hole left in our foodie scene.

Burgerism recently applied to move into a vacant shop unit in Meandwood at 605 Meanwood Road, seeking change-of-use planning permission for the former Papa Johns site which was previously only allowed to serve...well, pizzas.

Burgerism's new takeaway will be near the famed Zucco restaurant and The Meanwood Tavern, perfect for those looking for some post-pint burgers.

The planning officer's report stated that the applicant must give sufficient details of extraction equipment to prevent the odour for people living above.

It read: “The application site relates to a vacant ground floor premises within a parade of three commercial units in a local town centre. Above the premises are three floors of purpose-built self-contained flats.”

A design report by Burgerism read: “The proposal will ensure the continued use of a vacant hot food takeaway and will support the continued viability of the town centre of Meanwood, with an exciting new operator in the market.”

The brand-new Burgerism would employ 15 people from the local area and would serve food between 11am and 11pm.

We'll keep you up to date as and when we find out more, so you can get your Burgerism fix.
