Salt Oakwood, Leeds

Old Boots left this review about Salt Oakwood

One of three micros / small bars in a row opposite Oakwood Clock Tower, obviously this one is run by Salt/Ossett and apart from a clutch of national kegs it’s pretty much their beer in cask, keg or small pack format. We’ll skip the Guinness, Madri and boring stuff on the five way T-bar and concentrate on the four pulls with a Salt beer (Tweed) and Ossett White Rat plus a fruity cider (a non-real one according to Camra), the seven solo keg taps have a wide range of Salt and Ossett beers. The keg taps on the back wall dispense keg premixed cocktail’s, the barman told me they can dispense four in the time it takes to hand mix one and the stuff flys out of a weekend. A decent conversion, old floorboards left in place, an affectation with exposed brick, Salt hexagon tiles in front of the counter and that old fashioned industrial look stuff on the ceiling and counter top. There’s mid-height bench seating at the back end, mostly high tables with chairs at the front and just the one lowish table in the front window, a trio of machinist’s stools at the counter complete the seating. Fairly plain otherwise, the “washrooms” are up a flight of stairs where there’s a kitchen bar serving burgers, wings and loaded fries (chips!). Thanks guys for pointing out the “washrooms” but I didn’t actually need to wash anything just have a pee in a toilet.
