Christmas has well and truly arrived in Leeds and this bottomless brunch is just the thing to get you in the festive spirit.
Manahatta have just launched a bottomless brunch just in time for Christmas and all your festive favourites on the menu, as well as some classic Manahatta dishes.
Served every day until 4pm, enjoy unlimited drinks whilst tucking into the taste of December 25th.
The Christmas Burger is an entire dinner in one.
A tasty pork and bacon burger with chestnut sage stuffing is paired with apple and cranberry chutney, Monterey Jack cheese and served with skin-on fries, an onion ring and the ultimate festive treat: a pig in blanket.

For a lighter alternative, try the Christmas Bagel: spicy crisp coated chicken, pancetta, brie, pig in a blanket, cranberry and apple chutney and mayo, all stuffed inside a toasted bagel and served with skin-on fries.
The Xmas Hash sounds like a particular delight. A delicious concoction of sweet potato, pulled turkey with sage and onion, pigs and blankets and spinach all topped with two fried eggs.
If you're not quite ready to put Mariah on and decorate your tree, there are still plenty of seasonal, but not overly Christmassy dishes for you to choose from.
Vegans needn't miss out on this fantastic offer as their Greenmarket Warm Pretzel features halloumi, tomato and a fresh avocado salsa.
The bottomless drink options are just as vast and utterly delicious.
Unlimited cocktails, prosecco and lager? Count us in. / Image: Manahatta
Think unlimited prosecco, bloody mary cocktails, pints of Coors beer, as well as a range of festive cocktails that are yet to be named.
If you're the driver or don't fancy getting boozy: Manahatta really is catering for everyone. Choose either lychee crush or passionfruit and ginger spritz mocktails, or both: you'll have plenty of time to get them down.
Available at £39.95 and an extra £5 for some of the premium 'uptown options', you're in for a real treat.
To find out more and to read the full menu, take a look at their website.
One of Leeds' most iconic brands is expanding with two city centre openings.
Coffee lovers, you're going to love this one.
North Star Coffee Roasters are one of the early pioneers of specialty coffee in the North of England and among the UK’s first B Corp-certified coffee roasters.
They've been keeping the people of Leeds awake since 2013, and you'll find their coffee across the country as well as at their current city centre locations.
One of their brand-new locations inside the Victoria Quarter will be opening next Monday 1 June.
Their new kiosk will be located outside Jo Malone London and marks the brand’s third site in Leeds.

To celebrate the launch, North Star will be giving away 50 free coffees a day from Tuesday 2 June until Friday 5 June - a total of 200 free drinks across the opening week. Customers will be able to claim any coffee from the menu, with one free drink per person available on a first come, first served basis, each day.
Their other new site is expected to be on Great George Street, and we'll keep you updated with any news on that one as and when we know more.
Speaking about the opening, Holly Kragiopoulos, Co-founder of North Star, said: “Opening a third site in the centre of Leeds feels incredibly special for us. Leeds has always been at the heart of North Star, so being able to bring our coffee into Victoria Quarter is a huge milestone.
"We wanted to celebrate by giving something back to the city and welcoming both loyal regulars and new customers with free coffee throughout our opening week.”
Inside Leeds’ new neighbourhood bakehouse from the team behind Silver’s Deli
Clementine Hall
Silver's Bakehouse is finally here, and it's just as fabulous as we'd hoped.
Just when you thought Leeds’ favourite sandwich spot couldn't get any better, they go and open a bakery.
Silver's Bakehouse has opened its beautiful pastel green doors today over in Farsley to queues of excited fans eager to get their first taste.
So, what's on offer at Silver's Bakehouse?

Well, as masterminds of the almighty sandwich you'll be happy to know you can still get one here. However, their iconic sub sarnies have had an Italian makeover and are now served in fresh, springy sourdough which is baked onsite.
Elsewhere on the menu you'll find brown butter buttermilk brownies (try saying that three times), a range of delicious cookies, sausage rolls, soft amaretti biscuits and Dark Arts tiramisu.
There's also a fab selection of Italian drinks on offer in a swanky new fridge, as well as a coffee menu so you can pick a brew to go hand in hand with your chosen baked good.

The interior is just as gorgeous, complete with yellow walls, red tiles and a mirror hanging above the baker's table so you can really see all the magic happen.
And trust us, it is magic.
There's a couple of benches outside so you can plonk yourself in the sunshine to enjoy your sarnie, which is what we'll be doing in this glorious bank holiday sunshine.

You can really tell this is a proper labour of love, and Chris and the team have done a cracking job of keeping that Silver's spirit in there.
Go and say hello to congratulate them on this fabulous new opening, it's a great addition to Farsley and the Leeds foodie scene.
