Pub & Grill Leeds South in Morley

Ah, Pub & Grill Leeds South – it's one of those places that's part of the Village Hotels setup, so it's got that mix of hotel vibes with a proper pub feel, right in Morley near Leeds. I have to say, the staff really stood out for me; they're so approachable and make the whole experience feel warm and welcoming, like chatting with mates over a pint. The fish and chips were spot on – crispy, flavoursome, and just what you'd hope for on a cosy evening out. Plus, being slap bang by the M62 makes it dead easy to pop in if you're on the road or nipping around Yorkshire. On the downside, I heard from someone who tried the spicy rigatoni that it was a bit of a disappointment; tasteless and overpriced at £16, especially if you're not grabbing a discount. Overall, it's a decent shout for good food and a relaxed atmosphere, but it might not hit the mark on every dish, so perhaps stick to the classics if you're giving it a go. If you're after a straightforward pub night with a few extras like live sports, it's worth a visit, but go in with realistic expectations for a balanced experience.
