12 first look photos as new Wetherby Wetherspoons The Angel Inn opens its doors today

Crowds formed early this morning as pub operator JD Wetherspoon officially opened its newest venue in Leeds today.

The Angel Inn, in Wetherby, officially opened its doors following a £2.9 million revamp of the former Sant’ Angelo Italian restaurant on the High Street.

The well-known grade-II-listed building occupies a prominent town-centre location. Closed since 2022, it had been a restaurant and ice cream parlour for 13 years.

The pub chain has created 60 jobs.

And today the Yorkshire Evening Post had a first glimpse of what visitors can look forward to at the newly opened pub.
