Wending our way down towards EDT last night to meet some of the forum regulars we passed G&B on the way and decided to stop for one in the new bar...

I had been to the old bar a number of times but always a gamble that you might be the only people there, however last night we could see plenty of people already there and it looked like a great atmosphere


Long story short, we never got to EDT. Stayed in G&B all night and had a terrific time. Great atmosphere, plenty of staff to cope with a fairly busy night and all in good form. And the Pieminster pies went down a treat as well.


But I still wish I got to meet forumites - ah well, always Wednesday next week

Seconded. I went to G&B on Friday night and it was great. Very good wines on offer, you can actually buy them from the shop and take them through and drink them in the bar. Also you can BYOF (Bring your own food) and pay ?3 "chippage" for plates and cutlery etc while you drink their wine. Good thinking 99!


5 Stars from me - a drastic improvement. See you Wednesday for those going.

I also went on Saturday evening, we very later afternoon, and again the set-up is much better, simple bar layout.....I asked for a recommendation and explained my favs, and i got to taste a bit before ordering my glass, then enjoyed it so much bought a bottle as well (which was added to my bar tab and wrapped and bagged, chilled) and wondered off home to enjoy it. Always liked G&B, but now the deli is appearing too and the space is much bigger....big plus....in the summer when they open the boors in the bar, it will become even more appealing.

We went on Friday night and agree with all the above... the changes to layout have been a great success.


If you have even a minor interest in wine, you will appeciate how lucky we are to have this place so close to home. To be able to browse the shelves then take a bottle to the bar to drink is fantastic. The staff are very knowledgable and accomodating... I saw some people raising an eyebrow that there was no beer available on tap, but isn't that kind of like going to a Chinese and ordering chicken & chips?

Yes I know that, and maybe the people that enjoy wine, but who's partners don't, would go in there and spend their money, if their partners were catered for...


If they do bottled beer though, that would seem to solve the problem.


I've not been there, so I'm not judging, just making a point. I personally enjoy both beer and wine, depending on the occasion, but wine for me is more a thing to open at home with a nice meal, or just nice company, wine bar is not really my thing, but all power to them, and I'm glad to hear they're doing well, and pleasing the punters.

Could someone do me a favour tomorrow at the wine tasting please? 'Tis the boyf's birthday on Saturday and I'm running out of ideas for pressies. If you taste something delectable (must be red), on the heavy, rich, fruity blah de blah side and costing around ?20-25 that is particularly yum, please could you make a note of the name and then post it? Thanks in advance and have a good time!

Africa needs citing as being southeast of asia apparently, presumably by another 8 year old and kangaroos floated to Oz on mats!!

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
