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.
