Here's Why Our Customers Love Us
"Absolutely love the new vibe at The NEW Leather Bottle! The refurbishment is stunning, the food is delicious, and it’s great to see the pub so family-friendly. The kids loved their roast, and the Sticky Toffee Pudding was the best I’ve had in ages! We’ll definitely be back for more Sunday roasts."

"The pub has changed so much under the new management for the better! We stayed in one of their guest rooms and it was so comfortable with everything we needed. The pub garden is lovely, and it’s just a great spot to relax. Highly recommend the salt beef sandwich too!"

"The Sunday Roast was spot on. I went for the Pork and it was cooked to perfection. The cheesecake dessert was a treat, too! The staff were welcoming and made sure we were looked after. Definitely coming back to have another Sunday roast."
