Uno's

Documentary photography gallery and archive. The gallery also has a 50-seater cinema showing independent films, but as of 2025 this is closed since 2023 due to funding difficulties.

Side Gallery

Beautifully preserved 1880s long-room pub, with stained glass windows and wood-panel ceiling. A gramophone in back cranks out vintage tunes, and it's a great place to try real ales from local breweries.

Crown Posada

Relaxing sports bar, decent food. There's a good view of the river and Guild Hall from the front, and a DJ provides the music.

Mon-Thu 11AM-midnight, Fri Sat 11AM-1AM, Sun 10AM-midnight

Akenside Traders

Quirky cocktail bar with a range of 30 cocktails, with retro-chic interior.
