    It's really no surprise that North Bar was voted by the Observer Food Monthly as the 'Best place to…read moredrink in the UK'. They're not wrong. North Bar covers every single base. If you like your beer, well they've had over a 1000 on tap since opening twelve years ago. Not forgetting the 100000 various bottled beers. Got beer then, have they? Check. Don't like beer? Well how about one of cider, rum, whisky, bourbon, brandy, wine. They've got them all. And not only have they got them all, they've got the best of them all. Teetotal? Well, then, how about a coffee in the one of the funkiest interiors the Leeds bar scene has to offer? There's new art installed seeminly every month, with exhibitions from different local talent. Music? If it's good, it gets played. NOT BEEN HERE? GO. NOW.

    OK, so it may be a bit bizarre to update over a non-alcoholic drink, but North Bar wins again. With…read moreBottomless Coffee. Oh yes, that's the good stuff right there. It mightn't be a specialist brew, but for two pounds you can refill to your hearts content, pop out and back in again and still get more coffee, all the while enjoying the usage of their free wifi. There's even a table next to some power points in which you can plug your laptop in. Amazing. Whilst the likes of Brooklyn lager will cost you practically a fiver, which is a little more than I like to pay, they still offer a fantastic selection of drinks and the space itself is both large and inviting. The art on the walls is regularly renewed, offering the best in local artistry, and the staff are always full of cheer and chat. I can only hope that the newly opened Meanwood sister bar offers such delights as these! Want to escape the noise of the city? Check in for a coffee. You'll be warmly welcomed. In all, there's not much more can be said that hasn't already been penned, but if you're into your beers, music and banter you must give this place a visit.

    OOh! I'm the first! I'm the first!! *waves arms around in a Kermit-style YAAAAAY!*…read more The Victorian Fair is always a great day out in Otley and we took this as an opportunity (because we literally need no excuses) to go and check out this latest incarnation of North Bar right in the centre of the town. Having during the course of the afternoon made friends with a German, a Mexican and a French lady at Whitacker's (there's a joke in there somewhere) we decided North Bar Social would be a great place to show our new compadres some of the best drinking Yorkshire can offer. We were a highly enthusiastic, multi-lingual and already rather toasted crew of newly found drinking buddies and the homely atmosphere in North Bar Social suited us to a tee. Our Bavarian even managed to find a beer from his home town and enthusiastically made us drink it...it tasted of smoked ham. Like drinking smoked ham. It was awful. But at least it made him laugh to watch us. I suspect he had planned this all along. The lighting upstairs was a little bright and the wooden seats could have done with some cushions but these are mere environmental trifles that any new bar can sort out as feedback pours in. North Bar Social was a great way to while away a Saturday night with their vast and dazzling array of drinks, absolutely superb bar man whose service and smile were impeccable and perfect ambience entirely suited to making new friends. Well done North Bar Social.

    From the owner: North Bar Social boasts a large outdoor seating area, cosy upstairs function room, and some of the…read morefriendliest staff we know!  Our small, but perfectly formed, bar welcomes cyclists, dogs, walkers and has regulars from 18 to 80! Table service, a wide range of beers and wine, and a strong connection with the local community have brought a little piece of North Bar to Otley.
