Old Boots left this review about The Viaduct Showbar
Sitting next to the railway viaduct leading to Leeds station this is one of the most famous of Leeds’ gay bars. Nothing of interest to the cask drinker as it has just the four T-bars of the usual suspects. Long and thin half is indoors and half is a beer garden adjacent to the viaduct. Theres a small “West End Bar” to the front left with stairs down to who knows where, it was full of drag queens on my visit, Smoggie Queens brought to life. The toilets are at the back downstairs and are separate male and female with communal washing facilities. Its dark and the rotating glitterball makes description difficult but the six foot plus drag queens couldn’t be missed.
