Reborn in a beautiful 1890s building, the site of The Met has seen its fair share of Christmases. This one is set to be as deliciously decadent as ever.
The festive menu packs plenty of yuletide punch, with terrines, fishcakes, turkey breast, seabass and chocolate cheesecake across three delicious courses.
For a full Christmas feast? These traditional pubs, riverside spots and restaurants are serving up piled-high plates with all the trimmings. But that's not all, as there's themed burgers and other festive twists on dishes to boot.
Party people, rejoice; these Leeds Christmas party venues are ideal for cocktail-fuelled bashes, a sleigh's worth of festive packages and more. For music or meals, there's no better places. Nab a table or book a private space to celebrate the occasion.
@ Myrtle Tavern on Tue, 23rd Dec 2025 @ 13:00 - 17:00
Get into the festive spirit at Myrtle Tavern with Miracle on Myrtle Square, a Christmas day out for the whole family. Kids can decorate gingerbread men, craft wooden Christmas tree decorations, explore a woodland trail, ride the teacups as many times as they like, and snap a photo with Santa, all for just £10, with adults joining in for only £2.
The pub will be serving up festive drinks, including mulled wine and hot chocolate, while the Christmas grill menu keeps everyone fuelled for fun.
This season, The End in Leeds is getting a sparkling makeover as it transforms into the Christmas Ski Lodge - your ultimate winter escape. Hop on the ski lift and be transported straight to the slopes, where a stunning seven-metre, 3D festive façade sets the scene for all the holiday magic to come.
Inside, you'll find a cosy retreat complete with a traditional fireplace and a moose's head, perfect for settling in with one of their signature cocktails or a festive drink from the specially curated Christmas menu. For an extra special treat, why not book a Ski Lodge Bottomless Brunch on Saturday afternoons from 2pm? Indulge in 90 minutes of unlimited drinks, a festive afternoon tea, and even some close-up magic right at your table.
