Ding dong merrily on pie, Christmas is coming and Pieminister has got a delicious Bottomless Brunch to get you in the festive spirit.
Unlimited pints and prosecco will be served with your choice of Christmas pie for the ultimate winter warmer. It doesn’t get much better than this.
This bottomless brunch is a far cry from pretentious cocktails and snacks: Pieminister has kept its menu simple, focusing on serving a quality two-course feast and unlimited booze for just £40 per person. It’s just what we need this winter.

The menu currently compromises of five festive pies and each sound equally as delicious as the next. Inspired by the traditional British Christmas dinner, choose from fillings of turkey, venison, or beef with seasonal veggies and alcohol, all in one tasty pastry dish.
The ‘Cracker’ is filled with free-range turkey, ham, cranberry, parsnips and cherry, whilst the ‘Mistle Moo’ is a boozy British beef steak pie with bacon and port.
Vegetarians won’t miss out on these seasonal treats: the ‘Christingle’ pie is filled with honey roast parsnips, chestnuts, cheddar and leek, and the ‘Good Elf’ is a vegan pie with port, thyme, cranberry and vegan ‘turkey’ filling.
Each pie comes on a bed of buttery mash with parsnip crisps, a stuffing ball stick, carrot and swede mash, with some tasty festive gravy to pour over your main course.
Pieminister’s festive bottomless brunch even caters for those with a sweet tooth. Taste their gooey chocolate brownie between drinks; if you’ve got room for dessert that is.
Last month the Leeds Christmas Markets were cancelled after organisers in Frankfurt pulled out, but this menu is guaranteed to make up for any lost pigs in blankets or stuffing balls.

Leeds is full of bottomless brunches, but Pieminister’s might just top the lot this winter. Starting from the 16 November, this is certainly not a brunch we plan on missing out on this Christmas.
Leeds restaurant The Cut & Craft has announced further expansion plans for the spring.
Swanky all-day dining restaurant and bar, The Cut & Craft, is expanding its popular Leeds site, investing a whopping £1.2 million to create a new adjoining elegant bar, lounge and private spaces.
Located within the former historic Collinson’s Cafe, the renovation will transform the former neighbouring Paul Smith store, to extend the existing brand offering.
The extension will celebrate the original beauty of the space, whilst acknowledging the legacy of Wallace Hartley - a talented musician who played at Collinson’s Cafe in the early 1900s before his role as bandleader on Titanic during its maiden voyage.

The Grade II-listed building’s features including its iconic glass dome, stained glass and circular central bar will remain, with the addition of two beautifully designed private dining rooms.
The extension is due for competition this spring and will transform the existing venue into a space with seating for an impressive 370 covers.
Oscar Akgul, CEO at The Cut & Craft said: “Planning for this new chapter began within the first year of opening. By year two, it was clear that we required additional space to serve the city’s appetite for The Cut & Craft’s signature hospitality.

“The brand’s deep affinity with the Victoria Quarter and the heritage of the building played an essential role in the decision to grow here.
“We want to thank our regular guests and everyone who has joined us at The Cut & Craft Leeds since opening and we look forward to entering this exciting new chapter with you all.”
