It's coming home (again), and Leeds is getting in on the action.
The Women’s Euro Final 2025 is just a couple of days away after a nail-biting match against Italy, and whether you’re backing the Lionesses to go all the way or just here for the electric atmosphere, Leeds is the place to be.
From mega-screens and matchday menus to garden parties and beer-fuelled celebrations, the city is gearing up to bring the heat — no matter who’s lifting that trophy.
We’ve rounded up the best bars and pubs in town that’ll be showing the final live, so get ready for roaring crowds, cold pints, proper pub grub and plenty of goal-fuelled drama.
Woodside

If you haven't been to Woodside yet, then you are seriously missing out. This neighbourhood bar and eatery is the place to be if you fancy having some banging food whilst watching some sport. Their Sunday roast is the best in town, so it would be rude not to order it whilst you're there cheering on the girls, right?
BOX
Infirmary Street, Leeds city centre / Otley Road, Headingley
This one comes as no surprise, BOX is a sports-lovers staple and of course they'll be showing the women's final. Expect 35 HD screens, great food and an electric atmosphere. Book your table here.
Belgrave Music Hall
Cross Belgrave St, Leeds LS2 8JP

Live from the canteen, everyone favourite multi-purpose hangout will be showing the match on Sunday. Whilst you're at it, grab yourself a couple 2-for-1 cocktails and a burger from Patty Smiths. Bliss.
If you're looking to celebrate The Lionesses in style, then Rita's is the place to be. You'll get food and drink offers all night long, and if England score first then you'll even win yourself a free mini beer.
Millennium Square
Cheer on the Lionesses in the city's official fan zone at Millennium Square, it's safe to say you won't bag yourself a better city centre atmosphere than this. Let's just hope the sun comes out.
The Original Oak in Headingley is a favourite for all ages, but if you’re a student looking for some sports action, you’ll feel quite at home at this Otley Run stop. The pub will be showing the Women's Euro 2025 Final and you can bet that there will be plenty of space in one of Leeds’ biggest beer gardens for you and your mates.
Over in Headingley, you can catch the Lionesses on the big screen with breakfast for less than a fiver – what more could you really ask for? And, you'll even get a free drink every time England score.
The Tap Room is the Beck & Call’s dedicated sports room. Complete with pool table, darts and huge TV screens for all the live games, and of course they'll be showing the final on Sunday.
We hope you're ready for your workout, because FaceGym has landed in Leeds.
You may be wondering...what on earth is Facegym? And to be fair, you've got a point.
FaceGym, as they themselves describe it, a 'non-invasive fitness studio concept for the face' using high-intensity facial massage, hand manipulation, and electrical muscle stimulation technology to tone, lift, and sculpt the face without surgery.
Sounds pretty fancy if you ask us, and it feels just as fancy from the moment you step through the door.

Unsurprisingly, it's loved by celebrities worldwide who are looking to get snatched and ditch their gua sha.
Currently occupying five standalone stores in London, one in Cambridge as well as a pop-up in Space NK in Selfridges Manchester, FaceGym will be opening this Friday 18 September inside the coveted Victoria Gate, taking over a 1,772 square foot studio.

The space really does look like a gym, ditching the standard beauty salon aesthetic for an American-style gym interior complete with the iconic red FaceGym balls all over the place.
A signature sculpt costs £110 for a 45 minute treatment, so it's definitely a treat if you're looking to have skin that can reflect the sun and cheekbones for days.

Angelo Castello, chief executive at Facegym, said: “We’re incredibly excited to bring Facegym to Leeds and to open in the beautiful Victoria Gate. The city has a thriving beauty, wellness, and retail scene, making it the perfect location for our next studio.
“We’ve seen growing demand from customers across Yorkshire, and we can’t wait to introduce even more people to the benefits of facial fitness.”

The Leeds Supper Club bringing people together over incredible food
Clementine Hall
What started as a simple idea around food has grown into something much bigger for Leeds Supper Club.
The idea was born from a love of food and the idea that eating together can be about much more than what’s on your plate.
Rather than simply going out to a restaurant, Leeds Supper Club puts connection at the heart of its events, bringing people together to share incredible food and enjoy an evening in good company.
We had the pleasure of attending their most recent event where we had the most wonderful evening with founders Lizzie, Phillip and the rest of the club.

This instalment was a very special one, as it was in collaboration with Knotfield Vine over in Horsforth.
I mean, it really doesn't get more scenic than this - we really felt like we'd been whisked away to the South of France rather than a Leeds suburb. But we wouldn't want it either way.

What makes it a cut above the rest is the details. Every little detail has been thought out, from the low-lit, sexy lighting, hand-made name plates, live music and four courses of wonderful seasonal goodness made fresh.
From enjoying a glass of wine within the vines alongside a couple of nibbles to tucking into a three course meal around a candle-lit table, there's really nowhere else like it.

The tagliatelle pasta with beef and whipped feta was a real highlight, and knowing Lizzie and Philip receive help on the menu and the cooking from all their friends made it taste that much sweeter.
By the end of it we'd had some delicious food, fabulous wine and shared even better conversation. And it's safe to say we left feeling a part of the club.
Keep an eye on their Instagram page here for all upcoming events.
