After closing its doors at the end of last year, the rooftop of Trinity will be home to a restaurant and bar once again.
A stylish new rooftop bar and restaurant has just been announced for Trinity Leeds, replacing the coveted Angelica and Crafthouse site on the top floor.
Introducing 'CrowdedHouse', a new concept from the team behind Three's A Crowd that closed their Leeds restaurant in February but still runs successfully in Harrogate.
CrowdedHouse will be an all day, multi-use drinking and dining venue boasting incredible views of the city.

It will see a whopping £650,000 invested into the site with the creation of 50 new jobs in the city.
The space will be set across two floors, housing a capacity of up to 500 people.
John Quinlan, founder and owner, told Leeds Live: “The vision for CrowdedHouse is to deliver a versatile and multi-use venue for the people of Leeds, Yorkshire and beyond. The two-floor unit at Trinity Leeds is spectacular, boasting 360 degrees skyline views across the city and offering ample space for casual catch -ups, cocktails and dining through to those who require a stylish place to remotely work.

“The space will be designed so that guests can enjoy a variety of experiences in one venue. From meeting with friends or colleagues, celebrating a milestone, or simply enjoying time with family - CrowdedHouse will offer flexibility and understated luxury. I’m proud to be launching a bold new hospitality concept in the heart of Leeds and our investment reflects our belief in the city’s energy.”
Steven Foster, centre director from Trinity, Leeds, added: “We are delighted to be welcoming CrowedHouse to Trinity Leeds this summer. Taking over an iconic space - complete with a stunning roof terrace – they’ll bring a fresh new chapter for this location and an exciting burst of energy to the city. We’re confident CrowdedHouse will become a real must-visit destination throughout summer months and beyond."
"After years of late nights, strong cocktails, and incredible stories; The Maven will close its doors"
It's a sad day for the Leeds night life scene, as a beloved speakeasy bar has today announced that it will be closing its doors for good.
The Maven has been a firm favourite for many years with those looking to enjoy some experimental and expertly made cocktails.
Hidden behind an unassuming door at the top of Call Lane, it was a great spot to visit if you were looking for something that little bit special.
Announcing the news to their social media, The Maven said: "From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for being our guests over the years and promise that until then, we'll do our best to give you the best nights out on Call Lane."
Luxury Leeds steakhouse to undergo huge £1.2 million renovation
Clementine Hall
Leeds restaurant The Cut & Craft has announced further expansion plans for the spring.
Swanky all-day dining restaurant and bar, The Cut & Craft, is expanding its popular Leeds site, investing a whopping £1.2 million to create a new adjoining elegant bar, lounge and private spaces.
Located within the former historic Collinson’s Cafe, the renovation will transform the former neighbouring Paul Smith store, to extend the existing brand offering.
The extension will celebrate the original beauty of the space, whilst acknowledging the legacy of Wallace Hartley - a talented musician who played at Collinson’s Cafe in the early 1900s before his role as bandleader on Titanic during its maiden voyage.

The Grade II-listed building’s features including its iconic glass dome, stained glass and circular central bar will remain, with the addition of two beautifully designed private dining rooms.
The extension is due for competition this spring and will transform the existing venue into a space with seating for an impressive 370 covers.
Oscar Akgul, CEO at The Cut & Craft said: “Planning for this new chapter began within the first year of opening. By year two, it was clear that we required additional space to serve the city’s appetite for The Cut & Craft’s signature hospitality.

“The brand’s deep affinity with the Victoria Quarter and the heritage of the building played an essential role in the decision to grow here.
“We want to thank our regular guests and everyone who has joined us at The Cut & Craft Leeds since opening and we look forward to entering this exciting new chapter with you all.”
