Infinity Float in Roundhay offer an unbeatable relaxation experience in the form of floating pods.
In a search to cure their own levels of stress and anxiety, the masterminds behind Infinity Float discovered floating in float pods and the numerous health benefits it had on an individual.
After finding a method of meditation that directly enhances relaxation to unimaginable levels and has an immensely stress reducing effect, they set to opening Infinity Float in Leeds so that others could experience it.
So, how can you float? Well, when entering Infinity Float you will be asked to take a quick shower to remove any dirt, oil, or fragrances to ensure you have the best experience as possible.
Ear plugs will then be provided so you can fully switch off from the outside world as well as prevent any water from entering your ears.
You can then enter the float tank where you can allow yourself to fully let go and lay on your back, the epsom salt enriched water fully supports you and allows you to float on your back effortlessly. Here you will be encouraged to let your head and neck relax, close your eyes and feel the tension escape from your body.
Floating is perfect for those who have anxiety, are suffering from stress or just want to improve their mental and physical wellbeing.

Incorporating floating into your routine and through the removal of sensory stimuli, you are allowing your mind to be free from all distractions, enabling you to be in the perfect place to find your ultimate inner peace.
Not only that but floating is extremely effective in treating sleep problems such as insomnia, with an hour’s floating offering up similar benefits to a six-hour sleep in a bed, the tranquil state you experience in the pod will follow you until bedtime to ensure you have a great night’s sleep.

It also has proved successful in treating lower back pain, providing immediate relief for those who suffer from back pain, inflammation and muscle tension.

There are a range of price options with a one-off float costing £40, and if you use the code HOOT20 when booking you can even get 20% off your first float.

This UK pub chain has announced bottomless Guinness for the 2026 Six Nations
Danny Jones
Guinness and the Six Nations has got to be a match made in heaven.
With the 2026 Six Nations tournament kicking off last Friday Thursday, 5 February – it's safe to say rugby fans across Leeds will be set on finding the perfect place to watch the upcoming matches.
However, we can’t think of many other places offering bottomless black gold in town, let alone anywhere else in Leeds.
So, if you were still unsure of where to watch this year’s tournament, the Social Pub and Kitchen group might have just made the decision for you…
That’s right, this widespread British chain is looking to keep the pints flowing throughout the duration of this year’s competition, thanks to a twist on their standard bottomless brunch format.

Running for every single televised meeting between the much-loved half dozen rugby union teams, all 103 of their locations across the country will be providing this impressive offer on pints.
Here in Leeds, the Dry Dock, The Library and the Hyde Park Hotel will be offering the deal.
As well as these nearby venues, there are obviously plenty more around Yorkshire for those slightly further afield.
With a new food menu too, which features several honey-based dishes like the sweet sriracha pizza, chipotle loaded fries, as well as honey chipotle chicken wings, the matchday scran is on point.
So too are the drinks, clearly, and if any of your party wants to stray away from the bottomless Guinness, there are series of special Six Nations-themed cocktails, such as the ‘Midnight in Dublin’, a ‘Peach on the Pitch’ margarita, Baby Velvet, and the bold ‘G-Bomb’.
Yes, we suspect it is as boozy as it sounds.
Running throughout February and March whilst the games are on, we imagine plenty of people will be making at least one Social Pub and Kitchen site their chosen destination for watching all the action.
Even if you happen to be reading this outside of Leeds, you can find your nearest Social Pub and Kitchen and book your table right HERE.
