The magazine is available in restaurants, bars, pubs and cafes - in fact over 50% of our stockists
 are in the hospitality and catering sector. Meaning the magazine is picked up by people who are
 out and about enjoying meals or drinks in the city.

 We have many years experience of working with bars and restaurants and there are a number of ways we can work
 together to promote your venue, menus or seasonal offers. We have a dedicated food and drink section: which
 covers food reviews, recipes, and features. Talk to a LeftLion account manager for more information about how we
 can work with you to promote your food and drink offering.
