If you're participating in Galentine's Day this year, there's really no other way to celebrate.
Treating your bestie to a one-off experience is always better than some chocolates and flowers- it shows you care and gives you the chance to head out for the day and have some much-needed chill time with them.
Neighbourhood have clearly been thinking about this too and are hosting a Galetines themed bottomless brunch event this weekend to help us celebrate the girls (or guys) that mean the most to us in the best way possible- with unlimited booze.

A full ninety minute sitting will be available on Sunday 13 February, so there's no excuses not to book in for a weekend session.
On arrival, guests will be treated to a themed cocktail before moving on to embarking on a mission to see how much gin and Prosecco you can fit into the bottomless.
The lovingly themed cocktails come as either a 'P.S I Love You' drink with Pampero Blanco, Frangelico, Bailey, Kahlua, milk and ice cream or the 'Strawberry Kiss' a Prosecco-based drink with créme de fraise, stawberry purée and lemon juice.

Neighbourhood really know the way to our hearts (through our stomaches) and ensure you're never without a bite to eat. Whilst you wait for your main, there's Edamame Hummus to snack on with pickled red chilli and adorable heart-shaped pitta breads.
Expect main courses that truly embody 'a bottomless with the girls': they're very Instagrammable and sound as equally delicious. Think pink pancakes with mixed berry compote, chicken caesar salad with sourdough croutons and parmesan, as well as the main reason nobody can afford a house deposit: the millennial favourite, avo on toast.
Other options include a sweet but savoury southern fried chicken on a bed of waffles, streaky bacon and maple syrup; Eggs Royale and beef sliders with aged cheddar, pickles and mac sauce.
All this is served to the beat of a live DJ with bottomless Prosecco rose, gin, vodka or beer- a dreamy list of drinks that's certain to have a tipple for everyone.
If you needed any more excuses, tickets are just £40 per person and you can add a dessert for just £3.50.
Grab your Galentine and book a table 12pm - 6pm on Sunday 13 February to make the most of this exciting event- and hurry, we're certain this will be a sell out.

Everyone's in love with frozen yoghurt, and Leeds is about to get more of it.
Over the past year, the UK has become a little bit obsessed with frozen yoghurt - and Leeds is no exception.
We've had Kefiyo open in Headingley which met to queues round the block for weeks, as well as the UK's leading froyo brand Frurt open up in Kirkstall.
And now, there's a newbie on the block.

Introducing 'Yo-Go', your newest frozen yoghurt bar that will be opening up in Leeds' Hyde Park.
We don't know much about Yo-Go yet, but we do know it's female owned and is sporting some pretty cute branding.
The space is currently undergoing renovation, with the owner posting that she received the keys just a couple of days ago.
The window vinyls are up, and people are already getting very excited about the opening as they flock to the comments of Yo-Go's first Instagram post.
Announcing the news of their opening, Yo-Go wrote: "GUYS!! WE’VE GOT THE KEYS. And apparently they don’t come with a finished shop… rude.
"While we get to work, we need your input. Toppings, flavours, very specific requests, we’re taking notes. Drop them below and I’ll try my best to make it happen x"
Comments included requests for 'unlimited toppings' as well as warm sauces, cookie dough, marshmallow and honeycomb.
Sounds pretty delicious if you ask us, but for now, it looks like there's still some work to be done before the shop is ready to welcome its first customers.
We don't know of an opening date just yet, but we'll keep you updated as and when we do.
Inside the new all-day American diner that has just opened at Leeds Bradford Airport
Clementine Hall
A brand-new American-style diner serving smash burgers, hot dogs and thick milkshakes has opened at Leeds Bradford Airport.
We all know the holiday really starts as soon as you get to the airport, and Leeds Bradford Airport has a brand-new American diner to kick start it in style.
Welcome to Monty’s American Diner, the all-day dining destination bringing a taste of the USA to Yorkshire.
Located in the airport's departure lounge, this new spot is designed to give passengers somewhere to sit back and relax whilst enjoying a proper meal before jetting off.
And just like your classic American diner, there’s plenty on the menu to get stuck into.

Early flight? Breakfast is available until 11am with options including fluffy waffles, French toast bites, chicken and waffles drenched in maple syrup as well as traditional cooked breakfasts and American-style bagels.
Those travelling later in the day can tuck into smash burgers, chicken wings, loaded hot dogs, gooey mac and cheese and even a BBQ platter complete with ribs, corn and wings.
There’s also a menu specifically designed for the little ones, featuring waffles, beans on toast and scrambled eggs on toast, alongside burgers, chicken tenders and mac and cheese throughout the day.
And if you fancy a drink before take-off, because it wouldn't be a trip to the airport without a tipple, Monty’s has that covered too.
There's freshly poured pints on offer as well as cocktails, or you can have the proper American experience with a 'hard shake' - their classic thick milkshakes but made boozy.

The space has been decked out in style, so much so that you'll forget you're in Yorkshire and think you've popped into a diner on Route 66.
Classic booth seating, red neon signs, hanging globe lights, all complete with a retro jukebox which you can even pop a song on.
Open all-day long, from the first flight til the last, next time you're jetting off make sure to make Monty's part of your holiday routine.
