==Amenities== Garforth's amenities are similar to some towns in the City of Leeds, such as [[Otley]] and [[Wetherby]]. Garforth has two [[Tesco|Tescos]] (Extra and Express), and a [[Lidl]] supermarket, [[the Original Factory Shop]] department store, several [[public house]]s in the town centre, a [[Co-operative Group|Co-operative]], Greggs, Dominoes, Budgens, Costa, Subway, and other shops such as newsagents, charity shops, travel agents and banks. Garforth civic amenities include a library and a one stop centre run by [[Leeds City Council]]. A coffee shop on Main Street functions partly as a [[social enterprise]], giving its profits to projects in the village. There are also a number of take away food outlets. The lively Garforth Community Choir was formed in October 2015 and meets at Garforth Academy on Wednesdays at 7.00 pm, in school term time.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.themaindeal.co.uk/garforth-community-choir.html|title=Garforth Community Choir|website=The Main Deal|access-date=23 April 2018}}</ref> Garforth has ten traditional public houses, a mix of restaurants/cafes/wine bars, and a number of social/affiliated clubs.
