    Very pleased to see that one of London's most spectacular pubs, Crockers Folly in St John's Wood, has re-opened having been closed for ten years.

    Their website has a nice video which gives a brief glimpse of what to expect and the restoration process. http://www.crockersfolly.com/

    And this from their Twitter account - https://twitter.com/Crockers_Folly/s...75251669045248

    A welcome bit of good news and I'm looking forward to visiting (even if my wallet isn't!).

    Northern Monk Brew Co unveils taproom/bottle shop @ The Old Flax Store, Marshall’s Mill, Holbeck Urban Village, Leeds
    Northern Brew Co unveils tap room and bottle shop: Northern Monk Brew Co is opening the £100,000 Northern Monk Refectory, a tap room, bottle shop, events space and pop-up kitchen based in Leeds. Based at The Old Flax Store of Marshall’s Mill in Holbeck Urban Village. The new venue has been carefully restored back to the Yorkshire Stone flags and Iron columns. Brewing started in August on the ground floor and The Refectory will sit on the first floor and seat up to 60 people. The kitchen will be run by one of Leeds’ pop up kitchens, The Grub and Grog Shop. The food menu will feature beer in all sorts of forms, using syrups made from fresh hops, malt-infused oils to garnish dishes as well as braising various vegetables and meats in beer from the brewery. Russell Bisset, Northern Monk Brew Co founder, said: “We always wanted to create one of the most accessible taprooms in the UK. This is by no means (just) a brewpub. We have a capacity of up to 5,000 litres per week in house and will have 20 beers on at any one time in the tap room. We want it to be a real showcase of Northern British craft brewing, aiming to keep it at 80% produced in the north (of UK) with the other 20% world beer from progressive brewers. The Refectory will also host a bottle shop and will be doing brewery tours soon. It is very exciting.” Northern Monk currently has a core range of nine beers plus a range of specials and collaborations all brewed in house.

    "Observer names independent Leeds bar best in Britain: An independent Leeds bar, Friends of Ham, run by first-time bar owners Anthony and Clare Kitching, has been named as the best place to drink in the UK at the 2014 Observer Food Monthly Awards. Friends of Ham opened two-and-a-half years ago and is focused on pairing fine meats and cheeses with craft ales and wines. Anthony Kitching said: “It shows there is a good independent scene in Leeds and it also shows that the media, that can be quite London-centric, can look beyond the city to see things are happening elsewhere. In Leeds, there are a lot of people with a lot of ideas that are starting to get off the ground.” The couple chose Leeds to open their first bar after trips to America and central Europe gave them a taste for craft beer and charcuterie. The venue has since tripled its ground-floor bar space, which offers 14 beer taps and 150 bottles."

    Great news for those close by. Everything I've tried from them has been excellent. Leeds goes from strength to strength.

    Camerons Brewery picks up Leeds site: Camerons Brewery has acquired a new venue in Leeds. The outlet, previously trading as Spencers on Mill Hill in the city centre, will become one of the brewery’s branded Head of Steam craft and cask ale sites. The pub is currently closed for refurbishment and is due to open in early December .The venue will offer a range of 30 plus draught products with an emphasis on American and Belgium craft as well as large range of local cask ales and ciders. The pub will have the Head of Steam-committed approach to live music from local artists. The food offer will be based on home-cooked pizza and handmade burgers. Joe Smith, Camerons operations director, said: “When we identified potential new venues and locations as part of our expansion plans Leeds was one of the first destinations we had on our list. It is a vibrant city and the Mill Hill area adjacent to the central station is a busy area, with several great pubs creating a fantastic circuit. We feel the Head of Steam brand will fit in perfectly with the people of Leeds and we are going back to the routes of the original Head of Steam strategy of locating close to main line railway stations.”
