Residents have expressed their excitement after JD Wetherspoon confirmed plans to open a new pub in Leeds

The popular pub chain will open in the former Sant' Angelo restaurant in Wetherby, which it purchased following its closure in 2022. It represents a significant u-turn for the business who had previously scrapped plans due to sensitive “commercial reasons” and placed the building back up for sale. The move has been warmly welcomed by Wetherby residents who have taken to social media in their hundreds to express their joy at the announcement.

” Raymond Hunter said: “I live in Wetherby and socialise around all the bar's, to me this will bring competition to everyone and hopefully bring the prices to a more drinkable level.” While Patrick Lister added: “Wetherspoon’s opening up in Otley gave all the other pubs , which were withering away a much needed kick up the back side, and the pub trade in the town is much healthier.
