Hidden inside the Grand Arcade in the city centre, behind the doors of a working barbers, you'll find the entrance to The Domino Club, a hidden speakeasy that has built up a reputation for being one of the best live music venues the city has to offer.
While away the night to the sound of smooth jazz, funk and transport yourself back to the prohibition era, with a drink of something strong to hand.
Alongside an extensive wine and beer list, you’ll also find some top-notch cocktails on the drinks list here. Head down for a combination of timeless classics, re-works of favourites, and signature mixes like oat milk white Russians, strawberry and watermelon Ambratos, and a Riesling cobbler made with riesling wine, peach, lemon and soda.
The bar is usually open Wednesday - Sunday, but now you'll be able to head down to the secret bar once a month for a quiz night on a Tuesday evening.
Opening its doors to punters searching for an unusual night out away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre, and ready for a night of non-stop laughs.
The first official quiz night is taking place on Tuesday 19 March 2024, where teams of four (recommended, but not essential) will take part in round-upon-round of musical knowledge questions.
With themes like 'guess the song' from the live band performance right down to trying to see if you can work out what is being played by a blindfolded band, good music knowledge is encouraged but certainly not essential - we got by just fine with our general knowledge of 80s bangers and Spotify playlists.

Announcing the news on Instagram, The Domino Club said:
"The Big Fat Domino Quiz is coming your way on March 19th!
"Our glorious friend Jacob Savage has put together something truly unique, with a full band of players testing your listening skills to get you thinking outside the (juke)box.
"We know you’ll be blown away by the insane talents of Jacob and his band as they play some of your favourite pop songs in ways you’ve never heard, can you spot the Kanye West song played in the style of Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff? Will you recognise some rock bangers when they only sing every other word? Can Jacob really play Life On Mars blindfolded?
"With a whole bunch of fun and creative rounds this is a night you wont forget and is head and shoulders above what you think a music quiz could be. Just wait till you see the kazoo round…….
"We recommend teams of 4, tickets are ÂŁ10 per person and we also have some class prizes up for grabs too.
"This isn’t your average pub quiz, this is how The Domino does a quiz.
Veteran British musician Morrissey has just announced a very limited run of tour dates across the UK, including one right here in Leeds.
He's also overlooked one very obvious location...
The iconic singer-songwriter, legendary lyricist and former Smiths frontman is a controversial one these days, but he still has a fervent following of die-hards.
With that in mind, despite some recent cancellations, Morrissey will be coming to just a handful of British cities later this year.
🚨NEW SHOW ALERT!
Live In Concert, Morrissey is bringing his tour to Leeds! 📆Saturday, 19th December 2026
🎫Venue Presale - Wed 20th May, 2026 🎟️General On Sale - Friday 22 may, 2026
— first direct bank arena (@fdarena) May 15, 2026
Selecting just five cities to play in winter 2026, these latest live shows will be in support of his most recent record, Make-Up Is a Lie.
The 14th studio LP of his solo career, the reviews have been almost as divisive as the man himself, but his most passionate fans have praised it as one of his best.
Have you listened to it yet?
Most notably on this tour, however, the Greater Manchester-born artist has chosen to skip performing in his home city for some reason.
He did make his Co-op Live debut last June, but this time, his only Northern gigs in England are the first direct arena and a night in Liverpool.
We'd be foolish if we didn't mention that 'Moz' caused a bit of a stir by scrapping some slots earlier this year simply due to 'tiredness' - hence memes like this:
The other dates include Cardiff, Brighton and Glasgow, following his sold-out stadium show at The O2 in London this past February, with tickets going on sale next week.
If you're confident of him turning up to Yorkshire on time for his set in December, you can sign up for venue presale from next Wednesday, 20 May, with general admission going live at 9am the following Friday (22 May).

South Yorkshire music festival cancelled after issuing stark warning to fans
Clementine Hall
An independent music festival in South Yorkshire has been forced to cancel.
It's official, music festival season is on the horizon and it's getting us very excited to be stood in a field with a pint of cider in our grasp.
But unfortunately, that won't be the case for those looking to attend Reytfest - an independent music festival 'run my music fans by music fans'.
Set to take place at the end of June, the festival announced on Tuesday 12 May that they have had to cancel the event due to 'the cost of living crisis'.
Posting the news to Instagram, Reytfest said: "We have had to make the heartbreaking decision to not go ahead with the REYT FEST event this June. This is due primarily to poor ticket sales which we can only attribute to the cost of living crisis.
"We would like to thank everyone who contributed to the festival, from the bands, vendors, stakeholders, suppliers and all other interested parties. We’d also like to thank you, our followers, liking and sharing our posts really built our fanbase, but especially to those of you who purchased tickets.
"Rest assured your ticket money will be refunded and please don’t get disheartened by this news, keep on booking live events whether its grassroots music in a local bar to big band stadium events or something completely different such as theatres, cinema, sports, etc, if people don’t buy tickets, they will disappear.
"We had a dream that unfortunately we can’t see through to fruition on this occasion, but we’ve learnt so much and we don’t want to throw all that knowledge and experience away, so when the time is right - watch this space!! Thank you - Jon (Brad), Ian, Jess and the rest of the REYT FEST Team."
