This has got to be one of the best value bottomless brunches in the city.
The Wardrobe has been a long-standing pinnacle of food and music for the city since opening at the turn of the century. From welcoming countless up-and-coming artists to their basement bar and stage set to knocking out a seasonal Sunday roast every week, it's one of those rare gems that can cater to just about any occassion.
Including bottomless brunch.
Priced at just £25, The Wardrobe is dishing up a plentiful menu of boozy options- and we're not talking watered down shots of juice, the cocktails here are taken from the favourites on the main menu.

Choose from a classic Aperol Spritz or opt for a sweeter passionfruit and apricot alternative to wash down rounds of Amstel, selected cask ales, Prosecco or inches cider.
The Rum Swizzle is a standout crowdpleaser that marries the sweet, tangy tastes of pineapple, lime and orange juice with the bitterness of grenadine and Barcadi shots.
But if all this isn't enough to get yourself in the mood for an alcoholic brunch, there's a host of soft drink options on the table too.
The food options are just as varied (and tasty). The Wardrobe clearly got the brunch memo and cater to all your sweet, savoury, meat and veggie options with the likes of smashed avo on toast, eggs royale and even 'posh mushrooms'.

Those looking for a bigger serving will be ready to tuck into the brunch burger or 'straightener' pizza, both of which feature sausage, bacon and a fried egg (yes, even on the pizza).

Leeds man jailed for life after being found guilty of dozens of sexual and physical assault offences

A man from Leeds has been jailed for life after being found guilty of dozens of sexual and physical assault offences.
Paul Benstock - aged 62, of Appletree Court in the village of East Ardsley - appeared at Leeds Crown Court last week where he was sentenced after being convicted of more than 40 offences committed against five victims,
Following a Leeds Safeguarding investigation, Benstock was found guilty of a number of sexual offences and physical assaults against both adult and child victims, including 14 counts of rape - with these offences having thought to have taken place over a 22-year period between 1998 and 2020.
Benstock was also identified as being involved in the making of indecent images of children following an operation by the National Crime Agency’s Child Exploitation and Online Protection Command (CEOP), and was also found guilty of these offences.
"Much of Benstock’s offending was against victims who were children at the time," explained Detective Sergeant Michelle Barnes, of Leeds Safeguarding Unit.
"His victims have shown incredible bravery in giving us detailed accounts of what has taken place and then again supporting the trial process by giving evidence when Benstock refused to take accountability for his awful crimes."
Benstock was sentenced to 37 years imprisonment.
He was also made the subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and has been placed on the Sex Offenders Register indefinitely, West Yorkshire Police has confirmed.
