Spring launch for new city centre bar and gaming hall

Concept Taverns will launch a new six-figure beer, gin and gaming hall in Leeds this spring.

Pinnacle Beer & Gin Hall is heading to the city’s financial district in time for summer and will be based in the venue previously occupied by Roxy Lanes, which is currently undergoing a £250,000 transformation.

Spanning 7,000 sq ft, the bar is the newest addition to the company’s portfolio and takes its name from the building it resides in, which was the tallest property in central Leeds when it opened back in 1973.

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.

Pinnacle Beer & Gin Hall will offer guests at least 20 local and international beers on draught and over 100 different gins catering to all tastes. This includes the Malfy range of gins, monkey 47, and Plymouth gin.

Draught ales will include everything from Virtuous from Kirkstall Brewery to tipples such as Guinness and Beavertown’s bestselling Neck Oil.

This will be complemented by a cocktail menu spanning classic, signature and sparkling options.

The venue is well-equipped for sports fans, with all major Sky and BT events screened across several HD screens. And there will also be shuffleboards and seven pool tables.

Diners will be able to choose from a menu featuring fresh pizzas, small plates including beetroot falafel, nachos and charcuterie selections.

The venture is creating more than 20 plus and is planning its grand reopening for Thursday 19 May.

Ben Warren, Concept Taverns managing director, said: “After opening five new venues in the past year, we feel Pinnacle Beer & Gin Hall is the tip of the iceberg for us

“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.”
