Hide AdThe Charles Henry Roe in Austhorpe Road, Cross Gates, was set to open on Tuesday, March 3.
But the opening will be delayed by at least three weeks, and likely longer, according to a Wetherspoons spokesman.
A new official opening date is yet to be announced.
JD Wetherspoon faced a long battle with Leeds City Council in its discussions to open the pub, which is in an old doctors surgery.
The pub will have a beer garden with capacity for up to 70 drinkers.
