This £30 bottomless brunch comes with some of the best food in Leeds.

Described as a 'relaxed fine dining restaurant', Shears Yard is repeatedly on hot lists for the best food in Leeds (not to mention its admirable score of 85% on the Rate Good Roasts scale).

Offering an intimate dining experience, the chefs here are experimental and offer evolving menus guided by seasonality and local produce. Open four days a week, with a flavoursome lunch menu on offer, we can only think of one way that will improve the delectable choice of meat and sarnies: bottomless booze.

Of course, like all good Leeds restaurants, Shears Yard doesn't disappoint in this department either. Every Saturday for £30 per person, guests can expect a ninety minute bottomless experience with plenty of drinks and the same quality of food as on the regular menu.

The idea here is you choose one brunch dish and one alcoholic beverage at a time (although you can have this refilled as many times as you'd like) across an hour and a half.

Choose from winter warmers like wild mushroom and truffle orzo with roasted butternut squash with lemon and sage pangratatto or opt for a pork belly slice in black treacle glaze, Roscoff onion with ham hock and cheddar parsley liquor, carrot and suede.

Early brunchers will be keen to snap up the likes of smoked bacon and cumberland sausage sandwich in a brioche bun with onion chutney, rocket and pickles, whilst those looking for a balance of protein and carbs may opt for the smoked salmon with a warm salad of new potatoes, seaweed and capers in a buttermilk dressing.

The braised beef and root vegetable ragout is a standalone special served with buttered mash, rocket and parmesan salad: this mouthwatering combination would be our choice, particularly as the bottomless drink options would complement the flavours perfectly.

Bare in mind, this is just a sample of the menu for Shears Yard and as the restaurant mindfully alter their menu according to seasonality and produce available, so it's likely each time you visit you can try a brand-new dish. So really, there's even more reason to visit often.

Washing these culinary delights down is a choice of hand-pulled ales, the Czech pale pilsner, Prahva, poured by the pint; as well as bottomless classics like Aperol Spritz and Prosecco.

If that's not enough to tempt you, Shears Yard's cocktail Strawberry Fizz, with a Briottet Fraiser liquer, strawberry syrup and lemon topped with Familifa Botter Prosecco might just be the laid-back drink you need to finish off the afternoon. Failing that, there's always a Bloody Mary.
