We’re excited to be working with some of our favourite local suppliers. Tasty beers are being provided by Kirkstall and Ridgeside breweries, and Latitude are providing us with some excellent wines. We have ethically sourced El Salvador coffee from our friends at North Star, and tasty ice creams made just down the road from Northern Bloc. Vegan tiffin has long been a favourite with customers and staff alike, so we’re delighted to be working with That Old Chestnut once again.

We’re trying our best to keep our prices as affordable as possible, including our popcorn. We know cost is really important for families, which is why we have a kids-size popcorn cone for as little as £1. To enjoy even cheaper prices, you can become a member and receive up to 15% off selected items.

We’re conscious of improving our environmental sustainability at HPPH, including through our food and drink offer. We’re reducing our carbon footprint by sourcing from the best local suppliers to bring you quality food and drink. We prioritise limiting disposable waste too and aim to become plastic free by 2025. 

We are aware of how common severe airborne nut allergies are, and so do not stock products which contain nuts. Please let us know about any dietary requirements and allergies when ordering food and drink. We will be happy to provide ingredient lists.

Part of our Hiding in Plain Sight project – exploring the lost cinemas of Leeds – our interactive audio-tour takes listeners on a 60 minute walk around Leeds city centre, where you can learn more about 13 old cinemas, most of which are still visible today. 

This audio tour is based on the Invisible Cinema Walking Tour, a commission by Conway and Young for the Hyde Park Picture House’s 100th birthday celebrations and designed by Ben Waddington. A special thanks also goes to Dr Laura Ager, whose dedicated research, knowledge and cycling skills both inspired and laid the foundations of the tour. The tour was voiced by Leeds author SJ Bradley, and features music by Faded Auditoria and cinema illustrations from Adam Allsuch Boardman. You can visit the tour at lostcinemas.co.uk

Throughout the cinema's recent closure, as work on our redevelopment took place and floor boards were lifted, we came across lots of old rubbish that had been dropped over many years. From cigarette packets to sweet wrappers, these normally worthless items provided us with an invaluable snapshot into what a trip to the Picture House would have looked like over the decades, as well as the changing trends and habits of cinema audiences throughout the 20th century. 

We enjoyed sharing these finds via our social media, posting the discoveries using the hashtag #TreasureTrashTuesday. But to give people a chance to see these artefacts in person, we're delighted to have found a space in our Café Bar for a new display, repurposing an old cabinet that was once in our old security office, and now will be home to these fascinating finds. 

Due to the limited space and the number of items we found, we'll be regularly changing the items on display in the cabinet, with the items not on display being safely kept at the West Yorkshire Archive service.

Hyde Park and LS6 is a cultural hotspot in north Leeds. We’re so lucky to have some of Leeds’ best culture venues nearby. 

• Brudenell Social Club puts on some of the best gigs in Leeds. It’s also worth keeping an eye out for their free gigs as well as big names. They’re one of the friendliest (and cheapest) places to go for a pint and a pie, as well as being a great spot for pool. 
• Left Bank is a community-focused, creative space based in an old church. They have a café-bar and put on all kinds of events and creative workshops from poetry open mic nights to screen printing workshops. They often have great art exhibitions on and are open to people using their space for work and meetings. 
• Hyde Park Book Club put on amazing music, literature and comedy events as well as hosting creative workshops. They’re also a great place to get vegetarian food, go for a drink or buy nice plants. 

• Lupe's Cantina is one of the most authentic Mexican restaurants you’ll find outside of Mexico.
• Some of the best baked goods and coffee in the area can be found at Coffee On The Crescent. They also have a shop with mainly coffee-related items.
• Anand Sweets not only make delicious Indian sweets, they also sell amazing snacks and curries at very reasonable prices. They have loads of vegetarian and vegan options too.
• Chef Shabba's for Jamacian classics such as Jerk Chicken, Plantainand curried mutton. Alongside delicious rum cocktails and reggae bops!
• Rainbow Junktion, based at All Hallows’ church, is part of The Real Junk Food Project. It is a pay as you feel cafe run by volunteers who save food from going to waste and turn it into delicious, nutritious meals.   
• Mogador is the place to go for traditional Moroccan and Lebanese street food. They serve everything from mezze platters to tagines and kebabs.
• For plant-based burgers, try Friends Of Food.  
  
• For vegan donuts, other sweet treats like waffles and coffee, try Dukes Donuts.
  
• Royal Park Pub is a traditional pub and music venue just down the street from us.

• We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to shopping for international groceries with the wonderful Makkah Foods, Abu Bakr and CC Continental Supermarket in our area.
• North South Vintage is great for vintage fashion and second hand records.
  

• We're lucky to have Woodhouse Moor, a 26-hectare park, just up the road from us. It has tennis and basketball courts, a skate park, outdoor gym equipment, a bowling green, a children’s playground, allotments and on Saturday mornings there’s a 5K park run. When it’s light, it’s a lovely route to take to walk or cycle between the cinema and the city centre.
• We're also close to Burley Park which is smaller but has a cricket pitch, bowling green, tennis and basketball courts, outdoor gym equipment, a mini football pitch, a children’s playground, community gardens and orchards where you can pick your own fruit.
