The Three Swords, Leeds

Will Larter left this review about The Three Swords

Now owned by Kirkstall Brewery and opened in August 2023 as the Three Swords. It's been done in the usual Kirkstall house style of traditional pub features, either reproduction or salvage, though the building itself is obviously not a traditional pub. There are six hand pumps on the bar, with just two Kirkstall beers, plus two from Leeds Brewery (now owned by Kirkstall, as I understand), one from Allsopps (last I heard being brewed in Sheffield, but planning to move back to Burton), and one from Five Points (whose beers often feature at the Cardigan Arms). It was very busy indeed on a Friday evening, with families and groups of friends doing a lot of eating and a fair amount of drinking. My two beers were tremendous - the Leeds Pale the best I have ever had of this beer and the Kirkstall brew that gives the pub its name as near perfect as makes no odds. I must come back at a quieter time and drink my way along the bar.
