We're Best Bar None

We’ve been awarded the ‘Best Bar None’ accreditation since 2006; an initiative pioneered by Greater Manchester Police as part of its ‘City Safe’ programme, and adopted as best practice by the Home Office.  The scheme has been adopted by Student Unions nationally through NUSSL, and by many Police forces and Councils including Leeds. As well as receiving annual accreditation from NUSSL, we have won a string of awards including:

  • NUSSL overall winner in 2006 for the Terrace
  • Leeds Best Night Club 2007 for Stylus
  • Leeds Best Pub 2008 for the Old Bar
  • Leeds Best Door Team 2009
  • NUSSL regional winner for the Terrace in 2011
  • Leeds Overall winner 2011
  • NUSSL regional winner for Stylus in 2012
  • NUSSL Gold standard for Stylus, Terrace & Old Bar in 2014
  • Best Bar None, Gold standard 2015 and 2016
