La Bodega
Spanish Restaurant Park Cross Street
Take a deep dive into Spanish pub culture and let yourself get lost in the winding alleys of Spain's nightlife. Leeds' own version of the Mediterranean, La Bodega, is located behind its sister venue, "Ibérica." providing a modest tapas bar menu along with a variety of craft beers, wine, gins and sangrias.
Ibérica
Spanish Restaurant East Parade
Styled beautifully by architect Lazaro Rosa Violan with calming blue and white tones. In the daytime, the orangery style ceiling running the entire length of the main dining room floods the restaurant with natural light. By evening you’ll experience the warmth and glow of the suspending chandeliers and lights.
