The Malt Shovel - Leeds

The chef working in the kitchen today did an excellent job. The food was delicious! The bar service was also exceptional.

I went to this restaurant with my friend, who was the DJ. The staff was lovely and the atmosphere was great. I would definitely come back again. I didn't rate the food because I didn't try it, but the restaurant is easy to find and there were plenty of friendly people there.

This restaurant is excellent. I enjoy playing the slot machines, and the staff is very friendly.

Booked for a party of 6 a month in advance for a friend 's birthday. Arrived on time only to be told they had no tables available for us and that we 'should 've booked ' by who I can only assume is the manager (Kaz) . After explaining for the second time that we did book we were told that they 'd recently moved over to a new system for bookings and ours hadn 't been transferred over. Another staff member (petite girl with dark hair) on shift was trying to help us out and find a way for us to still dine with them by moving some tables around, however Kaz told her she couldn 't move the tables in order to cater for the dogs in the pub. Surely you would think paying customers would take priority over dogs but evidently not. The other staff member was nothing but apologetic and told us other places in the area that we could try. Not a single apology was made by Kaz and she made us feel like it was our fault, even though we booked well in advance. All of our party have or do still work in hospitality (managment roles included) and we were appalled with the way this so called manager dealt with us. We would like to thank the young girl who dealt with us in a professional manner and who tried everything she could to help us out.

Went to the pub this week and was served by new staff member whose name was Kelsey she was shy but very polite and classy. 10/10
