The Stanley Ferry, Stanley
Ok so it’s not South Leeds, BUT in WF3 it’s on the doorstep! There’s a great play area for children (and indoor soft play) with a good sized beer garden and brilliant and well-priced family menu. And it’s right on the canal- so perfect to combine it with your favourite walks!
The Two Pointers
Under new management, the Two Pointers has re-opened with outdoor seating for over 200. There’s a large covered area to the front of the pub, and a further beer garden at the back. The back area is fully enclosed, with garden games available and space to play. The children’s menu includes small plates for under 6 year olds, as well as more for older children. Children are also offered an activity bag to keep them entertained!
The Pavillion, Springhead Park, Rothwell
This lovely cafe has great menus for children and right in the middle of Springhead Park means that you’re right next to the Play Area and Skate Park.

There are a wide range of Food & Drink options in The Village at The White Rose Shopping Centre. It is also home to a fantastic outdoor play area for children. Look at the full offering of Food & Drink outlets here.
Rivers MEET, Methley
This lovely family friendly cafe, just off the canal in Methley has a new back garden veranda! If you’d like to reserve a table, please give them a ring on 01977279729 during opening hours.
Grasshoppers, Tong Garden Centre
To class Grasshoppers as merely a ‘play area’ is massively underplaying it! There is an extensive outdoor and indoor play range, including dining options in Grasshoppers itself.
