    FOOD HEAVEN AT ANGELICA’S, LEEDS | QUEENBEADY

    Okay, so the title is pretty much the biggest spoiler alert you could have when it comes to blog post spoilers but I do hope that my in depth account is one that still encourages you to go try it out yourself, too. I was recently invited to Angelica’s, which is situated at the top of the Trinity Centre in the centre of Leeds, to review their short yet tantalising menu. We slipped straight up in the lift to the 6th floor to be greeted by the pleasant staff and the panoramic views of Leeds through the floor to ceiling windows. The perfect spot for a mid-afternoon, post-shopping cocktail. I armed myself with an Angelica’s Autumn Punch which is vodka, fraise de bois, fraise liquor, raspberries and topped with prosecco. The perfectly zingy drink was all I was expecting and more. James chose the Yorkshire Lager, which is in fact brewed in a little village called Cropton. For something that was more like a pale ale, it was actually really tasty, something that really surprised me.

    The Alchemist Greek Street

    If there’s a cocktail bar that gets me excited in Leeds, it has to be The Alchemist at Trinity. It’s got a rooftop terrace, it feels so airy and light and the cocktails are divine. When I was invited along to visit their brand spanking new The Alchemist Greek Street, Leeds I knew that I had to give it a whirl. We’d been asked to review a full three course meal along with drinks to review on my blog and here I am to give you a true account of our experience. They describe their extensive list of cocktails of that of a “renowned Smokey Old Fashioned and the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party” rolled all in to one giving you a unique cocktail experience.

    Hedonist Project Leeds Rum Shack 7

    I’m just going to put it out there, it’s a bold statement but imma right on say it. Leeds is the food & drink capital. Yep, there I said it. Now, hear me out on this one. The wave of the ”pop up” bar & restaurant is fast becoming the ”in thing” but in Leeds I feel like we are getting some amazing new joints that have actually come on to be full-time, permanent spots because they went down so well during their short but sweet stints. The latest bar to hit New Briggate is Rum Shack. A quirky little hole. It’s unfinished and bare, but what it lacks in ”unpolished finishedness” is a bucket load of personality. Part of The Hedonist Project, you know you’re not going to be disappointed.
