Leighanne has over 10 years of hospitality, and writing
experience, with bylines in The Week, The Independent,
Cosmopolitan, HELLO!, and Grazia.
Leighanne isn't just a fan of looking for

knows a thing or two about the best

around those pubs too, helping write about some of the best
gastropubs up and down the country. She's also one of the
biggest advocates for cocktail bar Swift in Soho, where you'll find
her enjoying an 'Irish Coffee', to help remind her of
home.
