Amenities
Harehills' amenities are not located within one centre but spread across the area, mainly on Roundhay Road and Harehills Lane. Harehills Lane is a traditional shopping street with many individual shops and the library. Harehills Conservative Club is a large brick building on Harehills Lane, and Harehills Liberal Club is round the corner on Foundry Approach. The area's largest supermarket, Kwiksave on Roundhay Road recently closed. There is however still a Co-op, a Farmfoods, a small Sainsbury's and a large new continental supermarket. However, there are a great many individual shops frequently aimed at the various immigrant communities, as can be seen by shop signs in languages other than English. Harehills is home to many different fast food shops, and Roundhay Road has been referred to as 'The Curry Mile'. There are several public houses in Harehills, although considerably fewer than there once were. This has been partly ascribed to the increase in the Muslim population, who do not drink alcohol. Pubs remaining in Harehills include Delaney's Irish Bar, The Dock Green and The Samuel Smiths pub, The Brown Hare. There are no secondary schools actually in Harehills but many situated close by.
