Verve
WHERE
Leeds
What it’s like
A late-night live music bar with dancing, cocktails and free nachos before 9pm, not really a kids' venue.
This one's a bar, not a family day out, so worth flagging straight away. Verve is a live music spot in Leeds that opens in the evening, Wednesday to Saturday, and the hours alone tell you who it's for: doors from 7pm on weekdays, 5pm on Saturday, and none of it wraps up before 2am at the earliest.
What's on offer is live music and dancing, with a bar doing cocktails and food, lasagne margarita is the one they mention by name. There's a decent nudge to get there early too: free nachos with every drink before 9pm, which is the kind of deal that rewards turning up promptly rather than drifting in at midnight.
There's no booking required, so it's a walk-in place, but between the late finish times and the after-dark opening, this reads as a night-out venue rather than somewhere to bring the kids. If you're after live music with children in tow, the hours here just don't line up with bedtime.
