Agreed with the previous comments for 2009 but much improved, just tried food again after a few years avoiding and was ok, worth a retry, cannot comment about really busy times and doormen

The Palace has the worst staff I have ever come across. They are unfriendly and come across as they don't want to be there. I have never even seen the landlord so you have to put up with the assistant manager who has a constant face of thunder. Any food I have ordered has been brought over with one of the staffs fingers in it and is over priced. They have a good variety of ales on offer but the staff have n idea how to pour a pint. Overall I'd rather but beers at the local Coop and stay at home!

The bar is always swimming in beer ensuring wet shirt sleeves. The staff no absolutely nothing about sparklers and their relation to English beer. The tenant is never in the place at night, oh! except Mondays so the staff have six nights to say "if you don't like it leave", and the doormen on Fridays are just waiting to show how hard they are. Perhaps when Mitchel and Butler have moved out, we may get the place back on it's feet as one of the greatest pubs in the city of Leeds. p.s. And the toilets stink!
