The River Aire flows through Leeds and it finished its working career it was bought to be used as a pub on dry land in the city.

It is located near a busy road junction and Leeds university. It was originally only intended to be used as a pub for a short time, but has now been in place since 1993. It was originally black, but has now been painted blue and the pub is called Dry Dock.

"The Dry Dock is one of the most versatile venues in Leeds.

Where else can you head to a docked boat maintaining its authentic features and designed to create a comfortable environment to entertain guests from a far?

With a unique fun filled atmosphere the boat form some of the most elaborate, adventurous events. We have the largest open roof top space in Leeds with a spectacular view of Leeds City centres' high rise landscape.

We pride ourselves on the day time’s relaxed atmosphere which enables us to serve tasty foods at reasonable prices from 11am until 10pm. whilst the quirky nautical theme allows us to expand our entertainment and drinks offers on many evenings up until 2am.

A trip to Leeds simply wouldn’t be complete without a trip to see us." link
