what a cool lil bar! @holdingpatterns_leeds 🍸🎶📚

The outside area is perfect for these summer evenings as well 🌞🌝 I wanna come back in the day for a coffee & toastie solo date with my book 🤭

The laidback vibe makes it perfect for solo dates actually, while we were there we got chatting to this girl who was having an iconic solo spritz moment and I’m inspired!

📍Albion Place, Leeds City Centre
This genuinely is a hidden gem in plain site I bet you’ve all walked past multiple times and not noticed it!

Another new addition to the cocktail list glow-up: Bounty Hunter. Goslings Rum washed with coconut oil to give it a really rich mouthfeel, Cocchi Torino for sweetness, Cazcabel coffee for…coffee and bitterness to chime along with chocolate bitters, and a drop of saline to give all of the flavours an extra zhuzh. All topped with a little dark chocolate treat, because you deserve one x by @holdingpatterns_leeds

Sick little night down at @holdingpatterns_leeds the other day with the @a_soulful_selection crew 🫶

Lovely to hear some liquid drum & bass in Leeds and see so many friendly faces in the room.

I’d just picked up a new wide lens, so came down to test it out and snap a few pics of the vibes. Couldn’t really ask for much more on a Wednesday night ❤️

If you’ve been in during Tuesday or Friday lunchtimes then you might have bumped into Adam from @ifounditinbooks bringing along his latest eclectic haul of books for our shelves - here’s what he has for us on his most recent visit! (Fair warning, Twilight is in high demand so we can’t guarantee it’ll still be on the shelves by the time you get here…) taken in Leeds, England, UK by @holdingpatterns_leeds

The Saints still asleep, the time of ghosts at play
Even the most dapper vampire may loosen their collar
after a blood sipping day.

As the shadows spin,
night is unleashed from its reigns,
Contorting bodies,
pumping blood through veins.

The night is young
the dead awake,
In black tie only
for darkness’ sake.

So bring forth your lanterns,
Put the poison on ice,
Champagne Problem at the controls,
To jack your body twice.

Come dressed in your best
And let the spell take hold,
Halloween night at Holding Patterns -
expect the coffins to rock and the hearses to roll. by @holdingpatterns_leeds
