It’s no surprise that we are massive fans of Silver's Deli over here at The Hoot.
The sandwich gaff over in Bramley are famed for their stacked sub sarnies made with only the very best ingredients and homemade hoagie rolls.
More recently they've set up shop in Get Baked over in Headingley and soon Manchester, so it's safe to say that the Silver's way of life is on the rise.

"We’re off to London in a few weeks to see if we can bring this back to Yorkshire. If the Everything sandwich doesn’t bring it home nothing will! We obviously wouldn’t be going if it wasn’t for everyone slinging us their vote, thank you so much to everyone that did, we will be forever grateful.
"Obviously a huge shout out to the team for smashing it day in day out. I guess we better pick a winner for that thousand pound tab 💰"
Congratulations you bunch of legends, this is already a huge achievement but we have no doubt that you’ll be bringing that glistening trophy back to the city. Good luck in the big smoke, we'll be cheering you on from afar.
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.”
