Initially we only went in for some wine and olives but the staff were so hospitable they brought out some lamb kubbah in salad and a spicy pumpkin soup for us to have as well on the house! Its such a charming venue, the food was amazing, the wine divine and the staff heavenly. will definitely try and get back there soon!

High time I added my opinion to Veeno, since I visited not so long ago. First off, the staff have…read moregot banter. If you're following my reviews in any capacity, you'll be aware this is a priority for me -- courteous is one thing, bantz is another! I do like a fun bit of chat, and these guys have got it. It makes the place feel even more fun, if wine and tapas isn't enough for your jollies. Here's what else: lots of wine and tapas. I've not tried the bites (I will soon now that I've remembered) but the wines are great. I'm so far from being a connoisseur that I won't even begin to try and explain, just rest assured that this is the place to un-wine-d aprés work. I like how they've managed to make the place feel European, despite being on Duncan Street. (Just don't look out the window or the dream will be shattered.) I need to get back here for a more in depth investigation of the scene.

The staff were friendly and if you call in advance they accept the taste card for 50% off. We sat upstairs which has a low ceiling and great relaxed atmosphere. I will be going back to sample the Italian wines.

Personally, I don't think it gets much better than Unsworth's Yard in the sunshine…read more A recent discovery, it's the perfect place to sit back and relax after wandering around the village of Cartmel and pressing your nose up to the door of L'Enclume. Around the communal courtyard, there's a micro-brewery, cheese/pastry/deli shop, and wine and spirit vendor. There are only a few tables, so you might have to be all eyes and ready to swoop, but it's worth it. You can take a look at the micro-brewery and chat with one of the brewer's, who's more than happy to give samples before you purchase a pint. There are brewery tours available to those who wish to learn more. Something great to note? To enter the church, you have to walk directly next to the brewery. Good going, town planning! The cheese shop gives off a powerful smell at first - it should probably come with a warning for pregnant ladies and those with weak hearts - but I promise you get used to it. The man working that day was completely charming and wanting to help everyone and anyone, giving out samples of every cheese they sell. They were running low on breads etc when we visited as everything is baked locally and when it's gone, it's gone! I had a little bottle of prosecco, which went down very nicely, especially when sampling some of the cheddar we purchased. Plenty of people had their purchases spread about them, and it's a great place to go if you can't agree on what to drink or nibble on; just go to one of the shops and then meet in the courtyard.

Absolutely amazing service. Great prices and would serve us after we were so rudely ignored at the…read morestore across the way. Very friendly and won't ignore you. Wish I could give it more stars!

I second Alex! Despite not having actually bought anything here...yet (I may pop in there before my…read moreboyf's upcoming birthday as he has been known to brew a fair few bottles of wine!) I just really appreciate the fact that it exists! It sells everything you need to brew your own beer, wine, and spirits - they have shelves full of tiny intriguing bottles filled with essences of an array of different spirits. They also sell bits and bobs for coffee, tea and herbal drink connoisseurs and equipment for making Kombucha (a 'health drink' my mum makes that involves fermenting tea, producing a 'culture' full of yeast that resembles an alien out of a naff horror film which she calls 'the mother'...creepy or what!?). It is quite a small shop but is packed full of mysterious bottles and equipment and the staff are helpful and highly knowledgeable. If you're into making your own booze (or creepy aliens) or fancy taking up the hobby, Abbey Beer and Wine Making Supplies will sort you out!

I probably shouldn't review this place as I've never bought anything from here, but I did spend a…read morelong while wandering round in wonder at all the brewing contraptions on offer, so I felt the need to impart my knowledge. If you are into making your own beer, wine or spirits, then I suggest that Abbey is probably the place for you, and not just because it's the only shop of its type I've ever seen in Leeds. They have all manner of weird and wonderful Willy Wonka style contraptions, and the staff are clearly very passionate about what they offer - they'll probably even tell you how to make alcohol that doesn't blind anyone who drinks it. What more can you ask for?

Called here yesterday evening, nice welcome from the two girls. Good selection of beer, I ordered a…read morepint of local brew from Wharfebank Breweries (Tether Blond). Ordered two courses on the Early Bird system blackboard. The Haddock fish cake on a bearnaise sauce was excellent - crispy on the outside, soft inside, with definite flakes of fish, none of that mashed up rubbish one sometimes gets. However the lamb steak which followed was rather grisly and therefore too chewy. It was served with cauliflower cheese and deliciously sweet carrots, but oddly no potatoes. Maybe I got a bad one, but the lamb was disappointing. I may visit again and try something else, and if so edit this post. Bill was £18.

Not the cheepest of restraunts but the food, staff and its setting explains why.

With a large piano lounge to the rear that you can sit back and enjoy when you have satisfied your appitite you have everything you need for a top night out. Try there Sunday lunch its to die for.

This is such a lovely wine bar. When it comes to wine I don't pretend to know my stuff, I just…read moreopenly admit 'I know nothing about wine!' I do like wine, and it always has to be red, preferably a fruity one, but that's as far as it goes for me.. Names of wines? Nope. Flavours of wines? Nada. So I asked the bartender for a middle of the road, fruity, red. He recommended the Le Selezioni Cutaja, Nero d'Avola (confused face) and he looked like he knew his stuff, so with total faith in him that's what I went for. It was lovely. The bar itself is small but looks cosy. It wasn't particularly busy for a Tuesday evening but there was still a very pleasant atmosphere as I met some other Yelpers for pre-dinner drinks. As time goes on I can imagine this is the type of place I would like to sit for a few hours, order a meat and cheese board and try some different wines. This may have to involve building up my tolerance a little though, as usually 2 large glasses of red and I'm sloshed.

OH APERITIVI YOU SAY…read more Following my year in Bologna when I belatedly discovered Italian aperitivi culture (i.e. eating tiny free pieces of food along with your prosecco, negroni etc) I always get verrrry excited when I see it in the UK. Veeno apparently has a whole buffet on Wednesday, which I am excited to try. Meanwhile what we got was great - cheese and ham with excellent red wine (I got the "classic" which I really enjoyed). Will definitely be back here for drinks, it's a great stop off before, for example, Red's or Splendid Kitchen.

Spirited Wines obviously has a large selection of wines (which you can also drink in the bar…read moreupstairs) and have developed a strong whisky selection too, accompanied by tastings. Unsurprisingly, it's more expensive in here than online (a £110 bottle of whisky is £30 less online) but we probably would never have found out about it had we not gone in. There's a small bottled beer selection which has a large proportion of gluten free beers (better than M&S, Harvey Nichols or hangingditch). Everytime I have gone in I have found the staff to be really nice and helpful and it's nearly always the same people who I suspect are also the owners/managers.
