Friends of Ham opened on New Station Street in July 2012 with the aim of bringing high quality food and drink to Leeds in a relaxed, friendly and informal setting. Starting out as a tiny ground floor bar with a large “hidden” basement they expanded 2 years later into the unit next door and continue to serve great beer, wine, charcuterie and cheese to the good people of Leeds.

Open from 11am, 7 days a week, and serving through till late, they specialise in craft beer and fine wines offering a menu of small plates and sandwiches alongside their beloved meat and cheese boards. Bookings are available on the website, walk-ins welcomed and they are dog friendly.

The kitchen closes at 9pm Monday to Thursday, 9.30pm Friday & Saturday and at 8pm on Sundays.
