monday - saturday 10am to 6pm

Even though this isnt in bradford it is well worth going to leeds just to visit here - i love the uniqueness of it. Its just near the corn exchange so you are near some good unique shops.

This music shop sells every instrument you could ever think of in whatever size shape or form you require - it really is vast in what they sell. Also if you were after a particular type and they dont have it in stock they go out of their way to order you one from somewhere, they have various shops all over the world so they usually find the item you are after.

They also sell some unique older versions of instruments which is quite interesting to see.

Upstairs they have a large violin department - where you can buy,sell or hire violins or assessories.

The shop offer credit to buy the goods on which is a plus to some people.

The staff are on hand to help and advice in every stage of the process of buying an instrument. They are very friendly and polite.

The shop isnt really that expensive compared to some and because it is unique anyway a lot of the items you cannot find elsewhere. They also repair items for you...

This is a top class department store. It is in the middle of a pedestrianised area of Leeds city centre, close to many other shops. It sells designer clothes and handbags and accessories, premium brand cosmetics, perfumes etc. They have an Aveda hair salon. They have a personal shopper system where you can get a glass of champagne whilst you try clothes on â¬ you need to book this in advance. The staff are generally helpful and polite. They also have a small homewares department and an excellent food/grocery department which offers a deli style atmosphere and itâ¬"s a good place to shop at Christmas. There is a restaurant located on the top floor.This is a top class department store. It is in the middle of a pedestrianised area of Leeds city centre, close to many other shops.

Boots is situated in the Bond Street Shopping Centre in the city centre. It is on two floors and is the largest Boots store in the Leeds area. It stocks a wide range of goods including medicines, toiletries, holiday shop, mother & baby shop. It also sells many premium brand cosmetics and skincare. It has an on-site opticians and hearing aid practice. It also has on-site photo developing and sells a small selection of cameras. They also sell sandwiches/drinks and snacks and you can get "meal deals". The pharmacy counters do get rather busy at lunchtimes, and you may have to wait for prescriptions, but otherwise there are plenty of tills and the staff are helpful and friendly.Boots is situated in the Bond Street Shopping Centre in the city centre.

I used to get dragged in here week in, week out with my ex and despite knowing nothing much about guitars I can't say I ever minded it as much as some of the other guitar shops around. The staff are lovely, really friendly and they really know their stuff. You can be sure they wouldn't rip you off if you walked in there not knowing a thing. They have older guitars up the stairs with loads of memorobilia and signed pictures / photos and it's nice and relaxed. There is no sales pressure and they are happy to just have a chat. I recently bought a guitar from here for my brother and feel like I left well-informed and with a good deal. Friendly people, brilliant guitar shop.I used to get dragged in here week in, week out with my ex and despite knowing nothing much about guitars I can't say I ever minded it as much as some of the other guitar shops around.

If your looking for something a bit different away from the mainstream music the likes of HMV and Zavvi sell this is the shop you needs to go in.

They have a great collection of CD's and Records to suit many musical tastes. The shop is organised very very well and it is easy to find what your looking for.

As well as the very nice music collection they stock, they also tickets to gigs in and around Leeds and as well this tickets for club nights coming up in and around Leeds including the likes of sub dub, exodus and kissdafunk.If your looking for something a bit different away from the mainstream music the likes of HMV and Zavvi sell this is the shop you needs to go in.
