Our Venue
We meet at the West Riding Hotel on Wellington Street, Leeds LS1 2DE. Club nights are on Wednesday evening, 7.00 till 10.00. The West Riding is a busy cosmopolitan pub literally a minute's walk from Leeds city station. The food is good, but the bar can get busy and noisy at peak times. The chess club meets in a quiet upstairs room. We also play matches on Saturday afternoons in the Yorkshire league. |
