In the days where a bottomless brunch might set you back the best part of forty quid, it's refreshing to see an unlimited foodie offering that focuses on quality without bringing sky-high prices to the table.
And in what now appears to be a monthly special of unlimited cheeses on offer, this is hopefully one of many all-you-can-eat cheese nights to come for Leeds this year.
Combining eight different variations of cheddars, reds, whites and blues, Homage2Fromage is joining forces with to bring Leeds a night that we could only dream of.
Unlimited cheese will be served for a whopping two and a half hours, and there's absolutely no limit on how many crumbly bits, hard or soft cheeses you reach for.

The next event is on Thursday 13 April 2023, with a night celebrating all things Italian.
"Italy - the originator of so much amazing cheese - from the big, hard ones, to squishy, sultry ones, delicious blues, gentle subtle flavours and textures. So many contrasts, such quality, and the source of some of the world's greatest cheese!"
"All you can eat! 8 Cheeses - plus crackers, chutney and all the trimmings... There will be score sheets and tasting notes..."
"With a short presentation to talk you through the cheese you have been eating – this is an amazing way to find out more about lovely Italian cheese!"
Accompanied by a selection of breads, chutneys, fruits and crackers, there truly will be everything needed for a truly cheese occasion.
This isn't a snobby cheese night for those that know the difference between a quartz cheese and a brie, it's all about bringing people together to have a sensory and social experience that foods like cheese can offer.
Homage2Fromage is a Leeds-born company that was born out of a random conversation on Twitter in 2011 by owners Nick and Vickie. The two created what is now known as Homage2Fromage in our own city before expanding to the likes of Sheffield, Harrogate, Manchester and now you'll even find them in the capital too.
And so if the wealth of cheese isn't enough to speak to your stomach, perhaps the temptation of a free drink on arrival and the opportunity to meet like-minded foodies will have you logging onto the Homage2Fromage website to grab your ticket.
Tickets cost £20 each and include unlimited access to the cheese buffet from Homage2Fromage and can be found here.

Here’s how you can get FREE Tony’s Chocolonely and Yorkshire Tea in Leeds next week
In honour of National Chocolate Week, two big brands are joining forces.
Fancy a freebie? Silly question, of course you do.
Tony’s Chocolonely and Yorkshire Tea have joined forces for National Chocolate Week to ask Brits to declare themselves a ‘Melt’...yes, really.
It comes after the brands discovering a new Gen Z dunking trend, with research finding that 80% of 18–24-year-olds say chocolate is their preferred tea-dunking treat.
To understand why the perculiar pairing has become so popular, the brands recruited Associate Professor of Psychobiology, Dr Lorenzo Stafford, to investigate what happens when tea and chocolate come together.
Associate Professor, Dr Lorenzo Stafford said: "It's fascinating to see how much thought Brits put into what makes a great dunk. Flavour, texture and temperature all shape how we experience food, and the combination of hot tea with melting chocolate creates a particularly enjoyable sensory experience.
"When it comes to dunking, tea and chocolate have great chemistry so it’s no surprise young people have embraced it."
If you want to try it out for yourself, then you can for free - but there is one catch.
From Monday 19 to Friday 23 October, anyone who walks into one of Hyde Park Book Club in Leeds and says ‘I'm a Melt’ will get a free mug of Yorkshire Tea and bar of Tony's Chocolonely.
Not only that, but the first 100 customers will also get a limited-edition ‘Melt’ cap.
Yorkshire Tea & Tony’s Chocolonely said of the partnership, “Brits love their tea and their chocolate and now the science shows why. This National Chocolate Week, we’re inviting everyone to give it a go, embrace their inner Melt and discover just how well chunky chocolate and a proper brew can work together.”
Leeds Bradford Airport strikes will NOT go ahead following ‘late offer’ over pay
Clementine Hall
This weekend's strikes at Leeds Bradford Airport have been cancelled.
Around 130 workers were set to walk out this weekend, Unite said, but this has been suspended to allow air traffic controllers to consider a new pay offer.
The Unite members planning on to go on strike were a mixture of air traffic control workers, customer experience staff, security staff and cleaners.
The workers involved in the dispute had recently come out of a four-year pay deal, with some of the departments having fallen behind other airports in equivalent roles.
Pay talks have been happening since December 2025, with the airport's formal offer not going far enough to address the lack of pay parity which led to the decision to strike.
However, as of yesterday 15 October, the workers have been given new pay offers from the airport and the strikes will not take place to allow a ballot on the offers.
Air traffic controllers and hourly paid staff are being balloted separately on their respective offers.
Unite regional officer Neil Whitaker said: "After receiving offers from Leeds Bradford Airport, we have suspended this week’s strike action in good faith to allow members to vote on pay deals.”
In a statement, Leeds Bradford Airport said: "While the ballot process continues with certain members of our frontline colleagues, we remain hopeful that a positive outcome can be achieved and that an agreement can be reached which works for everyone involved.
"Regardless of the outcome of this ballot, LBA has a robust contingency plan in place and will be operating as normal this weekend.
"Our focus remains on supporting a smooth and reliable experience for customers while maintaining safe and efficient airport operations."
