The Pack Horse is a Grade II listed pub at 208 Woodhouse Lane in Leeds, and its upstairs room is one of the city's best-loved grassroots gig spaces. The dedicated 100-capacity music room has a full stage, an in-house PA with a sound engineer, backline available for visiting bands, and a full lighting rig, so touring acts can turn up and plug in. It leans heavily into punk, hardcore, indie and alternative, hosting everyone from local Leeds bands to touring originals, alongside the long-running Mos Eisley Cantina open mic every Thursday (a Leeds institution for over 26 years, recently relocated to the Packhorse gig room). Downstairs the pub keeps its traditional character with a juke box and a sizeable beer garden.
