Drinking and nightlife in Leeds, England
"In 1819, a museum was established in Philosophical Hall, Bond Street, by the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society, and in 1821 it opened to the public. In 1921, control of the museum was handed to the Corporation of Leeds which later became Leeds City Council. In 1862, Philosophical Hall was rebuilt in Park Row, where its stone portico can still be seen on the west side of the road.[1] In 1941, the museum building and artifacts were badly damaged by bombing.[2][3] In 1965 the museum was closed, and a few exhibits removed to a couple of rooms in the city library in 1966."
"Portland stone lion statue, showing erosion of the soft stone. Victoria Hall showing the pipe organ and stage. The Town Hall is classical in style but suggestive of power and drama."
"Yet another establishment found within Micklegate, Partisan is a trendy and independent coffee shop, which transforms into a restaurant in the evening. The menu’s diverse, and changes every week – as a result, it’s difficult to make a solid recommendation on which dish to choose, however, the principles at Partisan are clear – they value seasonality, allow the ingredients to do the talking and provide a relaxed, indulgent experience for diners. They were this year highlighted as one of the best restaurants in York by the Good Food Guide, which described “This distinctive arrival on blossoming Micklegate is principally a daytime café with a rustic ambience."
"When to go: Head down for a lazy brunch, take a book, order a large coffee, and while away a few hours. What to have: The partisan breakfast (meat, veggie and vegan available) cooked and served in a skillet, is comfort food at its best. For something a little lighter, try their Persian eggs with Medjoul dates and warming spices."
"Stop at this independent coffee shop and restaurant on Micklegate and you can look forward to all day brunch dishes such as French toast, eggs benedict, and cooked breakfasts served in a skillet."
"Famous for their spectacular pancakes – and many other yummy sweet and savoury treats. Normally it’s hard to get a table in here, so make sure to get here early (or be prepared to wait!) Currently open for click and collect or order at the door."
"What: Satisfying the breakfast cravings of Leeds folk from 8am every day, Crust and Crumb is a bakery-cum-café where you can expect to find pastries galore. Aside from the homemade cakes and freshly baked bread, there are also a few top-notch breakfast dishes – think halloumi and avocado on sourdough or a sweet potato rosti.Where: 110B Harrogate Road, LS7 4NY"
"Offering a great selection of homemade cakes and coffee or even a picnic to take on your walk. Enjoy a short walk in Acomb Wood and Meadow Local Nature Reserve which is about a mile from Love to Eat. Or you could pop by Love to Eat after a visit to Askham Bog if you are in the car."
"Afternoon Tea – A full Afternoon Tea comprising sandwiches, savouries, scones with Jam & cream and mini cakes & desserts. Adults £15.95, Children £9.95. 52 Moor Lane, York, YO24 2QY"
"What:Fettle may be best known for its great value set menus in the evening (two courses for £25), but you can also pop by here for breakfast. Tuck into the likes of mushrooms on pumpernickel rye toast or a slow-smoked pork belly Benedict. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of early starts either, as Fettle’s breakfast menu is served daily until 4pm."
"This Scandinavian-inspired little cafe is a little off the beaten path, but Fettle is well worth seeking out. It’s a bright airy space with long wooden benches and cool light fittings. Grab a cup of Limini coffee, a special Ippuku Japanese tea or one of the special brew teas from Jeeves and Jericho, before poring over their food menu."
"Cosy cafe by day, fine-dining dynamo by night, Fettle is full of surprises. Over the years, it’s blossomed into one of the best restaurants in Leeds. Brunch is an all-day affair with a refined menu of daytime favourites."

"Thomas Atkinson, an 18th century English architect, is famous for remaking the Bishopthorpe Palace in York in the Gothic Revival style. Though a rather influential figure of his time, very little is known about Atkinson's private life. His house, located at 20 St. Andrewgate, is one of the sparse evidences of his life in York."
