Just three weeks ago, we told you about 5
new openings coming to Leeds, and now we have another 5
to add to the list. There's a new cafe from a famous chef, a rooftop bar
with views of Leeds Town Hall and a big name gelato store, to name but a
few. Find out what's coming soon to Leeds...

their new restaurant will open in the Victoria Quarter this autumn and

Have you heard? The city's best secret
bar has a new restaurant – and we're giving you the chance to check it

Leeds has a thriving nightlife, but with
so many places to go, you'd be forgiven for missing a bar or two. These
ones tend to fly under the radar, but if you seek them out, you'll be
rewarded with incredible drinks, unusual eats and a cracking night
out.
|

|
|
Morley has a new bottle shop and it's
worth checking out.

This September, The Piece Hall will
recreate history as The Bullzini Family repeat Charles
Blondin's jaw-dropping tightrope walk across the iconic landmark. And you
can be there because we're giving away tickets!

Got kids to entertain this summer? A
trip to the Royal Armouries is a must. Your little adventurers can learn
how to be a Samurai, meet a Western legend and see a real Wild West Horse
Show. But that's just the tip of the iceberg...
|
|
|
A lasting remnant of an age long past,
these ghost signs are probably older than you are.
|
|
|
|
Tired of the same old sarnies? It's time
to try something new and we have just the thing – a sandwich bucket list
filled with classics, new creations and even a few curveballs. Start
working your way through the list and make your lunch break a little more
interesting.
|
|
|
This charity is doing really important
work with Leeds Teaching Hospitals, but you've probably never heard of
it. Find out how Leeds Cares has helped fund an MRI scanner, play
therapists & more...

nights, check it out.

New York,
#TGIF Congrats on surviving the week!
Keep cool this weekend at a rooftop film screenings or a silent disco, not
your speed? Check out our weekend
guide for more ways to have fun before heading back to the grind. 😜🔍📝
You could always head out to a rooftop
bar, 🍸🌃🍺or
sing your heart out in the lower east side at a karaoke
bar, or catch
Momix, an acrobatic spectacular, at the Joyce Theatre before it
closes. 🎟💃🕴
Have friends come into town? Make sure they experience the best the city
has to offer, starting
with where they stay. 🏨🥂😎
Or treat yo self, you deserve a staycation (and strong low volume
AC). 🎤🎹🎸
No matter how you spend the weekend, it's bound to be a great one.

Drink, Drink, Drink, Señora!
If
you’re a fan of scenic views from a roof, and if you’re drinking, there are
some excellent rooftop bars for you to hit up with the crew or even by
yourself to just chill.
From the Vida
Verde Rooftop Margarita Market to the Renaissance Midtown hotel’s Versa, all
of these bars are sure to fulfill your scenery needs…and feeds with heights
and sights of the city.
And if you’re
walking through the dreaded, crowded Times Square, have no fear of the
overly-jammed and busy area, because there’s a safe haven for you to have a
drink and see Times Square from a different seat.
|
|
Staycation Please
Is
the family coming out to visit you? Or a couple of friends from across the
country who haven’t been to NYC? AND they’re all looking to stay at a hotel?
Don’t panic; we have some suggestions.
Caution: these
beautiful hotels can be pricey, so split costs wisely if your group is
looking for a good time in the city. A classic and well-known location, The
Plaza is home to not only the cute character, Eloise but also to beautiful
20th-century appearances.
But aside from the
most popular hotels, there are also some that you may not have heard of, but
should indeed have a look at – ranging from The Smyth in the Financial
District to the Dream Downtown in Chelsea, and to The Beekman in the
Financial District, these hotels will satisfy your family or friend weekend
getaway.

Weekend Guide
TGIF,
we made it!
Get out and about this weekend and taste honey, make candles and catch a few
great shows.

Time For an Upgrade
Sponsored by:
Parachute
makes a stunning array of products for your bedroom that evoke a natural vibe
irresistible to the senses. This goes not only for people, but their dogs
too.
Peep the
#DogsofParachute hashtag and notice how comfortable these furry companions
look in a big plush bed, where you know the owner is about to jump right into
after they snap the picture.
The inviting
nature of Parachute’s linens is unquestionable and by the looks on these
dog’s faces, that fact spans across species. Outfit your home with
Parachute’s collection of great bedding options with multiple colors and
styles.
|
|
Closing Weekend
Some
people can do a cartwheel; some can do handstands and others can’t touch
their toes. For most of us, the most acrobatic and death-defying stunt we can
achieve is peeing with the seat down.
Catch MOMIX's gravity-defying company of illusionist dancers before the show
closes this week.
|
|
Labor Day Weekend Plans, Anyone?
Seriously,
what better way to kiss Summer '18 goodbye than a daytime yacht party with
NYC rock band Blac Rabbit and an open vodka and gin bar by Spring44, beer by
our BK friends at Brooklyn Brewery, and complimentary red, white, and rosé
wines from The Drop Wine?!
|
|
Sing Your Heart Out
The
Lower East Side, Chinatown, and Williamsburg have the places for you
vocalists or everyday songbirds to get out there to sing!
Karaoke brings
everyone together at these locations once you bring your friends, families,
or dates with you to get up on that stage and belt out your favorite
tunes.
The Alligator
Lounge in Williamsburg doesn’t just give you the freedom to be a rock star
for a few minutes, but there’s also free pizza. Yes, you read that
correctly.
