About New Inn
New Inn is a welcoming neighbourhood pub in Far Headingley where staff attentiveness and genuine hospitality set the tone. Regulars and visitors alike praise the friendly service—staff go out of their way to help, whether that's lending a hand after a rainy walk or arranging group photos. The beer selection is well-kept and varied, with cask ales and draught options that appeal to enthusiasts; CAMRA members enjoy a 10% discount. Food is straightforward pub fare, reasonably priced and well-cooked, from Sunday roasts to casual lunch plates. The atmosphere is relaxed and cosy, especially during quieter weekday sessions, and the pub doubles as a lively sports hub with multiple screens for football and rugby. Quiz nights draw a loyal crowd, and the venue is a regular stop on the Otley Run circuit. Wheelchair accessible throughout, with free parking nearby, it's equally suited to solo drinkers, groups, and families with kids.
