Brew+Bao, Chapel Allerton, Leeds

Modern bar conversion of typical shop unit, has long laminate floor with a raised area of white leather trimed booth like seating on the left very popular with 30something ladies on my Saturday afternoon visit. Other seating is tables, chairs, upholstered benches and more boothy bits with a lot of leather in evidence. The walls are finished in dyed planks material and paint. There's a single handpump but sadly not in use today - I'm told it usually has an interesting beer on in good nick. Otherwise a mix of national brands and a couple of rarities I plumped for a Dortmunder Union Pilsner which was excellent. I was served by a dodgy barman who calls customers things like friend or boss, better than mate, chief or squire I suppose.
