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.

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

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.
Get ready to take the plunge Leeds, as a community-led sauna and ice bath concept has landed in the city centre.
Hidden behind a railway arch in Saxton Gardens, Kontrast has brought its popular sauna and ice bath concept to the city.
Following the huge success of its Manchester site, Kontrast Leeds combines saunas, ice baths and a cafe designed to bring wellness into everyday life.
The Leeds space features two traditional saunas, one infrared saunas and four ice baths each varying in temperature between 3 and 13 degrees.

The space is absolutely gorgeous, complete with trendy tin ceilings, fairy lights and soft furnishings.
Plunge pools can be enjoyed solo or shared, depending on what guests choose, giving people the opportunity to shape each session around exactly what they need that day.

The same goes for the saunas, with one silent and one sauna giving guests the option to come for conversation or reflection.
Single sessions will cost just £12 for 45 minutes, with 90-minute sessions from £20.
There's a fab little cafe too offering all sorts from electrolyte slushes to ginger shots and a range of coffees and matcha.

Known for making sauna and ice feel more accessible, welcoming and community-driven, Kontrast has grown beyond regular sessions to become a base for recurring events. These include their live ambient DJ set event, Unwind, which celebrates local talent, and their weekly run club, both of which the team hopes to bring to Leeds as part of building a similar sense of community in the city.
Officially opening their doors this Friday 29 May, Kontrast are offering free sessions over the weekend so you can try before you buy. Book your spot here.
Inside Leeds’ new neighbourhood bakehouse from the team behind Silver’s Deli
Clementine Hall
Silver's Bakehouse is finally here, and it's just as fabulous as we'd hoped.
Just when you thought Leeds’ favourite sandwich spot couldn't get any better, they go and open a bakery.
Silver's Bakehouse has opened its beautiful pastel green doors today over in Farsley to queues of excited fans eager to get their first taste.
So, what's on offer at Silver's Bakehouse?

Well, as masterminds of the almighty sandwich you'll be happy to know you can still get one here. However, their iconic sub sarnies have had an Italian makeover and are now served in fresh, springy sourdough which is baked onsite.
Elsewhere on the menu you'll find brown butter buttermilk brownies (try saying that three times), a range of delicious cookies, sausage rolls, soft amaretti biscuits and Dark Arts tiramisu.
There's also a fab selection of Italian drinks on offer in a swanky new fridge, as well as a coffee menu so you can pick a brew to go hand in hand with your chosen baked good.

The interior is just as gorgeous, complete with yellow walls, red tiles and a mirror hanging above the baker's table so you can really see all the magic happen.
And trust us, it is magic.
There's a couple of benches outside so you can plonk yourself in the sunshine to enjoy your sarnie, which is what we'll be doing in this glorious bank holiday sunshine.

You can really tell this is a proper labour of love, and Chris and the team have done a cracking job of keeping that Silver's spirit in there.
Go and say hello to congratulate them on this fabulous new opening, it's a great addition to Farsley and the Leeds foodie scene.
