Shops are just over the river, basically follow Call Lane or Kirkgate towards the train station and everything is off to the right.

Park at the Armouries, walk along the West Bank of the river until you get to Jury’s inn cross at the bridge, turn left onto Call lane, cross the road at the graffiti building and head into the city. 10mins and you’ll be on Kirkgate with access to everything.

If the water taxi is still running, then you can get one at the back of the armouries up to granary wharf. Nice little ride and gets you up a bit closer to town, and a bit of history to boot 👍

Obviously before you separate off, if at the Armouries have a coffee and pastry at North Star coffee… some of the best pastries outside of France/Italy.
For lunch, highly recommend Momma Thai on Duncan Street (2 mins from Corn Exchange).

You can prebook the parking at Citipark, which is right next door to the armouries.

Yes, it is - I was in Leeds on Saturday and watched that go by.
