Concept Taverns invests £250,000 to launch bar within Pinnacle Building in Leeds

Hospitality operator Concept Taverns is investing £250,000 to open a new bar in central Leeds, creating 20 jobs.

The Bradford-based firm has taken over the former Roxy Lanes space within the city's Pinnacle Building, in the heart of the financial district.

Concept is investing in what it says is an "ultra-modern design" in the the 7,000sqft space that will open up city skyline views from the venue, which will boast pool tables, shuffleboard and TV sports.

The refurbishment is being carried out by Yorkshire Project Design and Build, which has been responsible for several of the most recent Concept Taverns projects including Market Square Tavern in Bingley and Granville’s Beer & Gin House in Horsforth. Concept already operates Parkside Tavern in the city.

Pinnacle Beer & Gin Hall will sell local and international beers, as well as gins and cocktails. A kitchen will provide pizzas, a selection of small plates and charcuterie selections.

Ben Warren, Concept Taverns managing director, said: “After opening five new venues in the past year, we feel that Pinnacle Beer & Gin Hall is the tip of the iceberg for Concept Taverns. Combining all the best things we have learned in the city and surrounding areas, we feel our newest venue offers something special to Leeds with a truly unique hangout space for everyone to enjoy.

‘’Our handpicked selection of incredible beers, ales and gins from some of today’s most beloved providers has proven to be a winning formula across each of our bars, and the food, gaming and prime location of Pinnacle only adds to this. We look forward to welcoming our first guests just in time for summer.’’
