O'Neill's Leeds

You're walking down Boar Lane in the city centre and ducking into O'Neill's feels like stepping into someone's living room—if that living room happened to have excellent pints and a reliably good crowd. It's the sort of place where locals actually mix with visitors without anyone feeling out of place, and the staff know what they're doing without being precious about it. The food's solid pub fare that doesn't pretend to be something it's not, and the drinks selection is what you'd expect from a proper Irish pub: Guinness done right, decent whiskeys, and usual lagers.
