Leeds Merrion Centre launches largest tequila bar in the region with new restaurant

New casual dining dive Cult Wing has today opened the largest tequila bar in Leeds. The new venue is located at the Merrion Centre in the heart of Leeds’ Arena Quarter.

Cult Wing’s range varies from fried wings and “gourmet” burgers to craft beers and a range of more than 200 tequilas, which will also feature in a hard-backed ‘Tequila Bible’ to inform diners. Craft beers, including own-brand draft Cult Cartel, North Brew and Wilde Child beers, as well as themed cocktails will be available.

The restaurant celebrates “freedom and raw individuality”, captured in the venue’s “funky” décor and “laid back, yet attentive” style of service. It uses only fresh ingredients and produces its own sauces which come in a choice of nine flavours.

Diners can also buy merchandise including Limited Edition T-shirts and enamel pins, with plans to introduce a range of cool hoodies, jackets, beanies, tote bags and more. The restaurant has collaborated with local graffiti artists to create an artistic, punk-inspired space which includes more than 200 pieces of original art.

Charles Newman, associate director at Town Centre Securities PLC, owners of the Merrion Centre, commented: “Cult Wing really is a cool new addition to the ever-expanding restaurant scene at the Merrion Centre. Its casual dining offer and amazing tequila bar will be a huge draw in the city.

“It is perfectly located on Merrion Way opposite the 13.5k capacity first direct Arena with direct access to the growing student population. We think it will fast become one of the trendiest places to hang out in the Leeds’ Arena Quarter.”

Denitsa Sharankova, marketing manager at Cult Wing, added: “Everyone is welcome at Cult Wing which is alternative, edgy and exploding with creative energy and we are thrilled to open our new venue in the heart of Leeds Arena Quarter.

“We can’t wait to introduce guests to our fresh food, beers, cocktails, and our extensive menu of almost 200 tequilas in the city’s biggest tequila bar.”
